land-Treaty OF Tilsit.
Copyright 1895. by John Clark Ridpath.l
XVII.-MAPMAKER AND KING OF KINGS.
After Austerlitz, Napoleon conceded TO
the Car of Russia the priUilege OF retiringl
Only a month before, Alexander had been
In Berlin. Out at Potsdam, on the 3rd OF
November, no and Frederick William had
sworn u secret mighty oath over the tomb
of Frederick the Great This conjuration
with the Car did not now seem 10 have
been an expedient thingl Frederick, sup
posing that Napoleon was not informed of
his perfidy, sent TO the victor at Auster-
litz message of hollow congratulation.
The Emperor, on receiving 1t, said that
Frederick William had written the letter,
intending 1t for the Gar but that fortune
had changed the address TO himself
The treaty Of Presburg was another
peace that did not pacify. Europe was
prostrato before Napoleon as far as the
Vistula; but England covered all sea
coasts from the Adriatic TO the Baltic, and
the whole Slavic race lay darkly banked
on the horizon OF the Northeast. The EN-
peror began at once, with incredible au-
dacity, TO make a new political map for the
European Powers, and TO support IL with
his under-kings and princes, Vassals OF
France. Influenced by the recent Russo
Austrian coalition, Italy, under the leader
ship Of Ferdinand, king Of tho Two Sic
lies had hopefully sympathized with the
allies. Instigated by his wife, Caroline
Maria, sister Of Marie Antoinette, the Noa-
politan king had admitted into his do
minions division OF the Russian army.
The cause OF oifense was sufficient; Napo-
leon, in January Of 1906, sent corps, un-
der his brother Joseph TO occupy Italy.
On tho 18th of February, having entered
Naples, Joseph was proclaimed king, and
the Bourbon monarchy was abolished.
Notwithstanding the intended treachery
OF Frederick William, the Emperor kept
faith with him, and deliverd Hanover 20
Prussia. The King was reluctant 20 accept
the gift; for Hanover was England's, and
he would fain be at one with England.
The principalities along the right bank Of
the Rhine, even from Italy 20 Holland,
were erected into tho Confederation of the
Rhine. Fourteen princes Of Germany vol
unfairly detached themselves from their
Teutonic affiliations, and carried over a
population Of about sixteen millions 10

lives from the several divisions of the
State, and a very pleasant session was
enjoyed. The reports of the officers
showed that while there had been no
very marked growth during the year. yet
the indications were hopeful and the
prospects more encouraging than they
were a year ago. G.. w. p, A. F.
Sutphen, of Somerville, presided. There
were a number of Junior Past Worthy
Patriarchs admitted at the morning ses-
sion. The election of officers occupied

sion, and resulted as follows:-G. w. p,

Van AIKEN, New Brunswick; Grand Treas

HUSBAND AND WIFE DIVIDE.
They Separate and Each Takes a
Share of Their Goods and Chattels.
Special to the Jersey City Ne,s.

BLOOMSBURY, jar. "a, 1S95.-This
quiet village was treated to the second
act in the Bibler-Riegel duel episode
which took place lear here last De-
cember. Ever since the affair occurred
DR.. Riegel, one of the principals in the
duel, has been estranged from his wife,
although both the friends of the doctor
and his wife have made repeated eff
forts in trying to reunite the couple.
The unhappy couple were exhorted to
kiss and make VI, but the young physici-
an would not yield, and his wife was just
as defiant and inf1exible in her opinion.
They mutually agreed that the house,
hold effects should be divided and parted.
The doctor advised his father-in-law to
| secure the services of his ~neighbors'
horses and wagons and come to Blooms
| bury and get what goods were the prop
erty of his daughter, at the same time
| telling him not to bring his daughter.
The father-in-law construed this 20
| mean that DR.. Riegel was going to
| institute a divorce after the Populistic
| idea. and consulted Lawyer Martin OF
| Asbury. who Suggested that officer Ram
| sew of Pennington be sent for and SUI
| pervise the division with equity. This
! was done. The doctor, his father-in-law
and Officer Ramsey, with four two-
| horse teams, were on the ground at the
| appointed time.
Constable Ramsey had just assured
| the doctor that his presence meant moth
| ing more thar a fair allotment of the
| goods, and insisted that Mrs. Riegel
| should be admitted, or the process OF
| the division would be postponed. The
| doctor was forced to concur. and the
| wife, who had been in the village all
| day, appeared.
The doctor first demanded the dia-
mond wedding ring on the wife's finger,
| and she reluctantly handed it to Officer
| Ramsey. The pet canary came next.
! This the wife declared she could not
| part with. so she bought her husbands
| interest for a nominal sum-. J..
And thus the division went on unit
| the four wagons were loaded down with
| the chattels of a once happy home.
There was nothing but the division OF
| goods and the old home that seemed to
revive the old ties. and both the doctor
| and his wife parted, determined never t
~reunite. The doctor says the matter will
be finally settled in the court.

TRENTON, al "a, 1895.-The contest
for the place left vacant on the Supreme
Court by the death of Judge Albeit was
carried on at a lively rate all day yes
terday. The fight has narrowed down
to ex-Judge Lannlng and William S.
Gummere.
Colonel William A. Potter of Cumber-
land is the candidate of many of the
members Of the bar of South Jersey,
who think that a South Jerseyman is en-
titled to the honor, and that it would
be advantageous to have a Judge, who,
sitting in that circuit, would always be
accessible. AT the present time the lower
circuit is presided over by Judge Alfred
Reed of Trenton. Judge Lanning is the
candidate of the Mercer County bar and
is endorsed by the Mercer County poll
teal organizations. William Gummere
acquires some of his support from prom
inent lawyers scattered through the State

the County Clerk and one of the political
leaders, until yesterday afternoon work
ed faithfully for Judge tanning because
of his being Endorsed by the Mercer
organizations, but Judge Lanning releas-

now turned in for his brother.
The fight will be prosecuted with much
vigor between this and next Monday
night, when it is expected the appoint
ment will be sent in.

His material is stored on Montgomery
street, and as soon as the frost gets out
of the ground he will put a large force

A petition is in circulation in the north
ern section of the city for the paving of
Erie street from the Erie Railroad tracks
to Seventeenth street. Owners of prop
erty in that section believe the paving
of the street will greatly enhance valu-
ations. Michael T.. Connolly and Police
Captain Kelly are interested in the i'm
provement, and 1t is likely that Mr.. Con-
molly will offer to do the work much
cheaper than any other contractor.
WILL APPEAL TO THE COURTS.
The Seventeenth Street Improvement
Association is to reorganize next week
with Charles Kelly as counsel. An eff
fort is to be made to a the courts de-
eide the case now pending, which pre-

DEADLIEsT POISON KNOWN.

The most deadly poison is that which
was discovered by Prof. Frazer, of Edin-
burgh, and known as -shophanthidin, an
African plant, AS little as a one-thou-
sand millionth part Of an ounce of cry
stalled shophthanidin produces a dis
tinctly injurious effect upon the heart,
and a very small quantity is fatal.
Another deadly poison is cyanogen gas,
the principal ingredient of hydro-cyanic
or prussic acid.
At ordinary temperatures it is simply a
gas, but can be condensed by cold and
pressure into a thin, colorless liquid and
becomes q solid at so degrees Fahrenheit.
The inhalation in it's gaseous state of a
most minute quantity would cause in
slant death.
One of the most deadly poisons is ar
seniuretted hydrogen, which is formed
by decomposing an alloy of arsenic and
zinc with s%ulphuric acid. 1t is a colorless
gas, possessing a fetid odor of garlic, and
acts as a most deadly poison.-Boston

EXPERIMENTING WITH vEsUVIUs

Some interesting experiments in the
neighborhood of Vesuvius are recorded by
Signor Palmieri. A line was laid from
the lightning conductor of the observa-
tory on the mountain to the little village
of Resina at the foot. where it was earth
ed IN a well. A special detecting instru-
ment was used. as the currents were oc-
OCCASIONALLY violent enough to demagnetize
the ordinary astatic needles and to fuse
a delicate suspension. It was found,
after a years observations, that the cur
rents flowed upward from the lower to
the higher station, but In August, 1898,
they began to vary, and finally settled
down to the opposite direction, this
change taking place at the same time
as a recrudescence of activity on the
part of the volcano. About January,
1894, the volcano quoted down, and the
currents were once more reversed, but
the same phenomenon occurred again on
a subsequent outbreak in the central
crater.-Newark Sunday Call.
