FACTS OF REAL INTEREST.

The world is now paying more for
instruments of destruction and the
enginery of death than for churches,
schools, arts, or letters
1t is calculated that the yearly pro-
ducuon OF paper in the world is 3,
O0OOO0,000 pound weight, and, accord
ing to an estimate which has been
made, this emanates from 1891 miles.
Oberlin college students have been
informed that they may indulge in
card playing in their rooms If they
choose. The good Methodists of Ohio
are almost horror stricken in conse-
quence.
In Paris a peculiar fad on the part
of rich women has given rise 10 the
curious profession of "dogdress-
makers. Members of this profession
supply every sort of covering a lady
wants for her pampered pet.
The demand for American apples in
Germany is said to be increasing at
rapid rate, as the German house
wives prefer them to any others. Ow-
ing to the large crop promised this
season, thousands of barrels will be
sent to that country.

saying that Prince Bismarck was
private gentleman, and was to be
treated accordingly, and that his views
were no longer of any weight With
regard to this decree, Prince Bismarck
once said: THAT Caprivi should as

communicated the statement to for
eign countries. was nothing to me. 1t
could only disgrace him. But that he
should interfere with my social rights
was too much. | at first wanted 20

self what would happen? am an
officer. The matter will be brought
before a court Of honor of old gen
erals. There win be a deal of talk,
and finally unmeaning declarations
will be exchanged What would have
been the use of this? SO l gave it up. Z"
1t is probable that Prince Bismarck
dropped his bloodthirsty plan because
he knew that Count Won Capriyi was
only the executor of the emperor

Bismarck Menoi S.


An international event of import
ance is the announcement Of the i'm
pending publication OF the genuine me-
moirs Of Bismarck, written Cor dictat-
ED and revised by the late prince him
self. The work. edited by the we'll
known Bismarckian historiographer,
Herr Horst Kohl, is to appear shortly
under the title of Gedanken ana Erin
nerungen. These Recollections and
Reflections constitute not alone the
autobiography of great statesman
but the most important contribution
to historical literature in the last
quarter of a century The book ap-
pears simultaneously from the house
of harper & Brothers IN New York
under the title, in English, OF Bis
marck's Autobiography, from Gotta in
Germany, from Smith Elder & Co. in
England. It. is very interesting TO
learn from the Berlin correspondence
in the London Daily News that Prince
Bismarck, as 4 man of rs, was about to
to send his successor, Count Won
Caprivi, a challenge to duel with pis-
tolls, AS is known, the German gov
eminent under Count Won Caprivi is
sued on the occasion Of Prince Bis
marck's visit to Vienna to attend his
son Herbert's wedding, circular note

turning from barbarism to an Aus
tralian city he did not reveal the story
OF his adventures to any Australians,
although he remained there some time
before going to England. Although
he claims to be Frenchman born and
bred, De Rougemont speaks English
with much greater nuency than
French. Then, too, in Sydney, Austria
liza, leading newspaper affirms that
De Rougemont resided in that city
for II years under the name of Henri
Grien, but left the colony Is months
ago, leaving wife and family. This
seems likely, for the man went about
as Grien for while after his arrival
in London.
AT last accounts London opinion
was still divided as to the genuine
ness OF De Rougemont. Although de-
nounced as an imposter by one lead
ing paper, he draws large audiences to
his lectures, and the popular maya
zine continues to print instalments of
his remarkable adventures in exile,
Many people, no doubt. hesitate to
brand the man as fraud because he
may have had most of these expert
ences while not being able to account
satisfactorily for all the years of his
life.

husband, is a true Hapsburg. He is
neither a great statesman nor a great
soldier. He has never ruled his peo-
pie; he has been content to drift with
the tide. During his reign Austria
mas lost its once prominent place
among the nations, and 1t is now pre-
aicted by the best students OF the
political situation that the empire will
so to pieces before another quarter of
a century has passed away. There
is no statesman in Austria capable OF
ayerting this calamity. The en-
peror, like his forefathers, loves the
chase better than the business of
governing, and the channels in the
Alps and his many hunting castles are
his diversion and places OF refuge"

A WRONGED EMPRESS.
he Tickle Viennese Made Elizabeth S
Life as Tragic as Her Death.

THE Jubilee year was not all joy to
the Austrians because of the estrauge-
ment of the empress from her people, 3"
writes Edward A. Steiner OF The
Tragedy of Jubilee Year in the
Woman's Home Companion.
Long ago she was their idol They
loved the beautiful Bayarian princess,
with the face of an angel and the
grace of a goddess They swung
their hats and cheered as she rode on
her splendid horse through the crowd
ed avenues OF the Prater and the
stories they told one another of her
goodness were not exaggerated. But
the Vienuese crowd is tickle and not
only tickle. but loves to discuss and
magnify a scandal, especially If it
touches royalty, Stories came TO che
empress which wounded her pride and
turned her from her imaginative an
ungratefu subjects. She neglected
Vienna and the Viennese, and the peo-
pie never forgave her for it. Since the
death of her son she has lived like
nun and mOurned like a true mother,
while the gay Viennese longed for the
pomp, glitter and glory OF former
days. Hers was a tragic life as well
as a tragic death. She died a home
less broken-hearted woman, away
from the court OF Vienna, which she
hated. and away from the people who
nad so cruelty wronged her. Elizabeth
was woman Of superior mind. She
was eccentric but always pure, and
far too good a woman to he compelled
10 waste her life Ia the musty, scan
dal-breeding atmosphere OF the Hof-
burg In Vienna Francis Joseph her
