to his long German porcelain pipe

second lieutenant, corps of engineers.
He resigned from the army in 1855 and
practiced law at GAINESVILLE, Wis, until
the breaking out of the war, when he
enlisted as lietenant colonel of the
Third Wisconsin volunteers.
His meritorious conduct won one pro-
motion after another, until in 1866,
when he was mustered out of the volun-
teers, it was with the rank of major
general. He was then reappointed in
the United States army, with the rank
of colonel, Thirty-third infantry, July
IS, 1866.
In the following March he was brew
cited brigadier general, United States
army. He was provisional governor Of
the state of Georgia from January IS
to July 4, 1868, subsequently being APP
pointed to the command of the depart
ment of the south. He was superin-
tendent of the military academy in
1S71-6 and commanded successfully the
departments of the Missouri, Dakota

For a man as old as Bismarck is to-
day, and man who has. while in Of
fee. always eherted himself physical
w and mentally, to the utmost. IL is
remarkable that there is still so much
vitality and such o passion for useful
occupation of some kind remaining in
him. 1t is true that neuralgia. his old
enemy. is causing the old man great
deal of pain at frequent intervals, and
that sleeplessness, the bane of old age,
is likewise his portion. But. with few
exceptions, Bismarck still passes a very
busy day. He rises early, usually when
daylight appears, and after walk and
a refreshing bath, he breakfasts with
good appetite. Then, as soon as the
mail has arrived and been sorted by his
private secretary. DR.. Chrysander, in
the presence of his son-in-law, Count
Rantfau-for Count Rantfau, husband
of Bismarck's only daughter, has now
taken up his residence in Friedrichsruh
and means to stay there until the old
mans death-the ex-chancellor busies |
himself with that. and he often be-
comes 50 completely absorbed in what
he reads and writes that he has to be
summoned again and again to dinner.
Usually, it is true. he dictates letters or
newspaper editorials TO his secretary, |
hut he invariably looks them over and |
carefully corrects them and i'm the ed |

fact little known outside Germany that |
during the recent series of articles |
which appeared in the above journal,
and in which the past relations of Ger
many with Russia and Austria were
handled without gloves. the secret police

The United States government has

ship Indiana. The instrument consists
principally of a plate, usually of metal,
varying in size. This serves as a dia-
