THOUGHT THE KAISER STUPID. 4.
A Goodman Told Him He Would Never

An amusing little story about the pres
ent emperor Of Germany, William II,
and Vienna coachman was narrated at
a banquet lately given at Vienna by
some diplomatists, the narrator being
himself we'll known and prominent
member Of the corps diplomatic.
In the year 1887 the present Emperor
William II of Germany, then Prince
William Of Prussia, came to Vienna,
visiting his particular friend and chum,
the late Crown Prince Rudolf Of Aus
tria. Joined by the Prince of Wales,
who was at that time also frequent
visitor to the Vienna court, the three
princes took fancy to mingle with the
commons of the Vienna population.
Dressed in ordinary clothes, they visited
places which are not in the least regard
ed as suitable for princely guests.
One day they entered a hotel, but in
stead Of going into the dining room they
walked into the "schwemme," place
which answers in some degree to the
barroom Of an American hotel; in this
room coachmen and the servants of the
hotel guests take their meals.
The three princes took seats at an
empty table, and listened, highly
amused, to fierce debate about politics
between several stout members of that
class of fashionable Vienna coachmen
who are known all over Europe as
"fesche Wiener faker'' The distinc-
ton Of tn lose characters is a kind of
good natured boldness and droll famil-
iarity toward their customers as we'll as
to perfect strangers.
After listening awhile Prince William
put in word, and soon was drawn into
the excited discussion. Suddenly stout,
red faced coachman walked up to the
table where the three princes were seat
ed, and, tapping Prince William gently
on the shoulder, said, "Now, if you
should ever have anything to say in
politics, you wouldn It set a river on fire,
I'm sure !"
AS every public coachman in Vienna
wears number. this coachman was-
upon special request of Prince William
easily identified. The prince sent him
q handsome scarfpin with his initials as
thanks for the amusement he had fur
nished, and thus the man learned in
amazement whose political abilities
they were that he had 50 belittled.-

A friend writes from Washington as
follows: If at any time the people of
Minnesota should feel the loss of Mr..
Lind's retirement from Congress It is
now. While our delegation have not
Jared badly in committee assignments,
yet they have not a single cha1rmanship.
When Lind retired, he was the oldest
Republican, in point of service, on the
committee Of Inter State and FOREIGN
Commerce-w1ich of late years has be-
come one of the big committees had
he continued IN congress, he would have
been its chairman now. Until our State
makes up its mind to elect good men
and keep on electing them, it can never
expect to WELD the influence that many
other states do. Look at Maine. for in
stance, with Reed, Dingley, Boutelle and
Milliken. BY continuous service of
from fifteen to twenty years these men
have won distinction for themselves and
the state which has shown it's wisd ON bv
returning them term after term. The
same may be said of many of the South
ern States. If the people could only
realize the Importance of keeping ex-
perlenced men in the national legisla-
ture they would surely not permit a
member to retire like Mr.. Lind VIII o
made such brilliant start.

The Cuban insurgents are making re-

stronghold, and if luck keeps with them
the city will be theirs in very few days.
Let us all hope that their victory may be
complete, for they deserve it. Their
cause is righteous one and is being con-
tended for against great odds.

A GENTLE SARCASM.

Late in the afternoon the court hand
ed down an opinion in the case of Kuni-
gunde Glass, pla.atiff and respondent,
VS.. Frank Glass, Sr. defendant and ap-
pellant, affirming the Judgment and
order appealed from.
The case was one carried on appeal
fro. Sacramento and was an action to
foreclose q mortgage executed by the
defendant to plaintiff The contention
was made that the plaintiff could not
foreclose the mortgage because of the
declaration of homestead filed by the
husband. This contention can be best
stated, says the court in the pathetic
language of the brief: Can respond
ent, by aid of the judicial arm, invade
the home and, preside, destroy the home
stead and the sanctum Of virtue and
truth, in an action by her against her
husband to foreclose q mortgage, when
the husband has no other suitable place
of abode? Can the homestead be aban-
doned in this manner? Will equity SER
NIT the wife to destroy the house pro-
vided for her by her husband, and de-
stroy his means of support and cast him
out on the world in his dotage, simply
to satisfy her avariciousness. or q de-
mand for her pound of f1esh?"
Terrible as the consequences may ap-
pear to be, says the court, we aIe con-
strained to hold that the husband cam

OPINIONS HANDED DOWN.
A Criminal Case Appealed From This
City in December Last.

The supreme court handed down an
opinion yesterday in the case Of the
people, plaintiff and respondent, VS..
George Harris, defendant and appellant,
appealed from Los Angeles county.
The defendant was convicted of burg
larry, the charge being that he felonious-
ly, burglariously, etc. entered the house
of one Lou Sam with intent to commit
larceny. The appeal was from the
Judgment and also from an order deny
ing new trial.
1.-THE only point made by appellant
for q reversal" says the court "is that
that trial court erred in allowing the
witnesses Auble and Hawley to testify
as to certain statements made by the
appellant-the contention being that
there was no sufficient proof of the cor
pus deficit. independent of such state
ment. But the witness, Lou Sam, had
testified that he lived in a certain house;
that he had certain articles of personal
property in said house! that a part at
least of said articles were in said house
at 6 pm. on December 18, 1895; that af-
terwards, about pm. of the same day,
the said witnesses Auble and Hawley
who are officers, entered his the witness
Lou Sans house, having the appellant
with them, and also the said articles of
personal property belonging to said Lou
Sam. The testimony of said witnesses
Auble and Hawley, to which the objec-
tion was made, was substantially this,
that between 8 and 8 ocolck pm. of the
said day they saw the appellant some
distance away from the house Of Lou
Sam; that said appellant had with him
a. tin box containing opium or yen see:
that said witnesses asked the appellant
where he. got the Oaid box, whereupon
the appellant handed the said box, and
also some other things. called by said
witnesses 1.-The rest of the stuff" to the
witness Hawley; that appellant told
said witnesses that he had got the things
in a laundry and would show them the
place; that he took the witnesses to the
house of Lou Sam, and, in the language
of one of the said witnesses, went right
to the bunk and showed us where he
got the stuff" He said he took 1t be-
cause he was hard up and expected to
get good price for it in Chinatown.
I'VE think that the testimony of Lou
Sam, and also the facts testified to by
the witnesses Auble and Fawley, <inde-
pendent of what the appellant said, were
sufficient, within the rule of the most
extreme cases or the subject, to so show
the corpus deficit as to justify the ad-
mission of the said statements of the
appellant"
The Judgment and order appealed
from are affirmed.
