was recommended to them by one Of their great
est geniuses-him. mean. who was himself the
best incorporation Of their light and brilliant In
tellect. and said OF calumny that some OF It al
ways took effect" Then by way Of explanation
he spoke Of the way the French had expressed
their hatred Of him. One would almost think
him sensitive TO such attacks II any man could
really be made uncomfortable by bitter language
that fattered his vanity and was really a trib-
ute paid to his power
Most OF Prince Bismarcke conversations as ex-
empihed in this book. recur to himself as the
topic sooner or later. For the great majority OF
people this would be an incredible misfortune.
But Prince Bismarck Is infinitely lucky to have
such theme as himself. He does not need the
literature of Coleridge, Luther or Goethe TO vary
his theme. When man has been the centre,
the very SOUL OF an epic period In history. he
needs nothing besides himself to speak OF. Like
Ulysses at the Court of Alcinous. whether the
lyrist sings or he himself talks, there Is theme
for verse or prose but his own deeds. He can
afford to be simple minded. as Motley says
Prince Bismarck was in the height Of his power.
because what has happened 10 him surpasses
the arrogance Of words. Once at Varzin, after
sitting long In silence. he abruptly declared that
his political activity had never given him or any
one else satisfaction. Had 1t not been for me"
he exclaimed. there would have been three
great wars the less; the lives of $4,000 men would
not have been sacrificed: and many parents
brothers. sisters and widows would not now be
mourners That however. have settled with
my Maker" One may count on the fingers Of
one hand all the men who could have said as
much In just such words without arrogance:
and Y does not smack Of downright humility
and total sesf'abnegation even from Bismarck.
But this confession must be taken with other
ssmarks which show that. though he did not.

IS AFTER CARLISLE.

WASHINGTON, April 1S-william
Graves of New Yorn City today filed
in the district supreme court, a petit
ton for mandamus to compel Secre-
tary of the Treasury Carlisle TO de-
liver to him bonds to the amount of
A,500,000 of the recent issue of thirty
year 4 per cent. The petition sets
out that he bid for this amount OF
bonds at S115,339 and complied with all
the regulations; that his bid was also
accepted; that the original notice of
allotment was not sent to him as to
other bidders and though requested
no allowance was made by the de-
partment for the timet lost by the
negligent act of the department in mis-
directing the official allotment notice.
The petition asks that the secretary Of
the treasury be restrained from deliver
ing to J. Pierpont Morgan & Co.. or
any other persons, the $500, 900 bonds
allotted to Graves. Judge Cole issued
an order requiring Secretary Carlisle
to appear on Saturday, April "a, and
show cause why the mandamus asked
by Graves should not be issued.
