Won Waldersee is soldier of particu-
lar interest to the people of this country
because of the fact that his wife is an

Miss Mary Lea, daughter of a wealthy

married Prince Won Noer, a septuage-
marian, who very obligingly died six
months later, leaving his young widow
a fortune of about 81, 600, 600. The en-
peror of Austria created her princess
in her own right, and after two years of
widowhood she married the dashing Won
Waldersee. She has since been a power
in German political circles, and is said
to be fully as ambitious and fully as
brilliant courtier as her husband.
Won Waldersee was born in Potsdam
in 1882 and entered the army at the age
Of IS. He has been a soldier ever since
and has made the most Of his As years
experience. He served with distinction
in the war of 1866 and in the Franco
Prussian war, and when Field Marshal
Won Moltke resigned as chief of the gem
eral staff, III 1888, Won Waldersee was
appointed to the coveted place. Two
years later he resigned, to the great sur
prise of the emperor, it is said, and has
since been commander of the Ninth
Army cc.ps That he is again high in
imperial favor is shown by recent
events. His wife is cousin by mar
! rage of the empress and is said to pos
sess great influence over both the en-
press and emperor

leveled at some man other than the
nearer. He was born near Newton, Sns-
sex county, N j., July 10, 1849, and
was graduated from Lafayette college in
1868. He studied law with Socrates
Tuttle in Paterson and displayed such
talent in his profession that a year after
his admission to the bar he became Tut
ties partner.
He was an active Republican long be-
fore he could cast vote, and at the age
of 26 was induced, much against his
will, to run for the New Jersey assem-
bly, He was elected, and although new
to tho intricacies of parliamentary de-
bate he at once became one of the con-
spicuous figures in the assembly and
impressed all who made his acqGaint-
anee with his ability for legislative
work. When he stood for reelection,
however, his district failed to return
him. Undaunted by defeat, he secured
the city attorneyship of Paterson, an
office he held four years, and continued
his active participation in politics. IN
1882 he was elected to the state senate
and served there as a senator for six
years. At the beginning of his second
term he was chosen president Of the SEN
ate, and during his entire six years of
service in that body was a power in the

IF the cholera should happen to strike
here next summer during vacation, il
would be necessary to assemble all the
schools. and call all the teachers home
from their outings, as a means of
protecting the children from the
disease. At least this would be in
accord with the theory of the board o.
health on the diphtheria matter. The
more children can be got together
in one place the safer they are from
contagion. 1t is unfortunate that there
is not school building big enough to
hold them all. The indications are how
ever, that it will not be many days till
almost any building will accommodate
them if they continue to die, to get sick
and to leave school at the rate of the past
few days.

fact there is not the remotest possibility
that any foreign silver would como to

THERE has been great increase in
the production of gold all over the world
during the past year. This fact will
have the effect of causing the mono
metallists to redoubie their efforts to pre-
vent the restoration of silver. What
they want is to have the amount of re-
demption money just as small as possible
that it may be more easily controlled, and
through it all the productive industries
