Bismarck's Courtship

Bismarck fell in love at a friends wedding with the young woman who became his wife and presently wrote to her parents to ask her hand.
 The good people were much sur prised naturally at a direct attack like this, they were very simple folks leading a very quiet life, and they were rather frightened at the repu- tation for high living which the candidate enjoyed.
 As, however, their daughter inti- mated in discreet terms that she did not look upon the young gentleman with an unfavorabls eye, Her von Puttkammer wrote to young Bis m1rck inviting him to come and see them.
 Every one did their best at Rein field to give the visitora suitable re- ceptiOn. Fraulein von Puttkam- mer's parents put on an air of grave solemdity, and she stood with eyes mOdestly bent upon the ground.
 Bismarck. on alighting, threw his arms around his sweetheart's neck and embraced her vigorously before anybody had time to tell him that his conduct was hardly proper and correct. The result, however, was an immediate bethrothaL.
 Prince Bismarck was very fond of telling this tale, and was careful always to finish the story by thls reflection; And you have no idea what this lady has made of he"
 On one occasion of obedience to his wife. Bismarck remarked: 1t IS surprising what a ma1 will do to enjoy peace n hIs own house, after having had thorough taste of war.

Statistics Of Tuberculosis.

A Detroit dispatch says: The con ference of state and provincial boards of health closed its session with discussions on tuberculosis in all its phases. The convention hall walls were liberally hung with maps showing that this insidious disease has killed more people than any other affection. Tn this connection, Dr. Hurty, of Indiana, in discussing economic phases of tuberculosis. sand one-seventh of all the deaths are caused by 1t.
 In the same connection, William Bailey, of Kentucky. declared that I,2O0,OOO people died annually from tuberculosis. and said that if sani- tarians were but given the oppor- tunity to fight the disease, the say ings would easily pay the country's pensions; that in two or three months the interruptions to ccm- merce from the disease represented at least $l00,0000O0 After tracing the tubercle bacillus from its origin to the height of its growth in man the conference discussed means of prevention.
 Discussion on this point ranged from "care of expectoration" tU "state and municipal care of con- sumptives."

Admiral Cervera, it is said, will not return to Spain.
 Cranks without number appear all over the country at various places and times. but the king of them all made his appearance the other day in an obscure Ohio town. His name is George De Vany, and seems not unknown to fame of this kind. He proposes to run for President on a platform which promises a pension of S35 monthly to Federal soldiers and S25 monthly to Conferate sol diers, besides promising the south ten cents per pound for cotton.
 Spanish soldiers have lost none of their barbarian by being whirued by the United States. A telegram from Washington says that the last days of Spanish rule in Cuba and Porto Rico is being marked by anar- chy, outright. and a wholesale slaughter of innocents. The two is- lands are filled with horrors infinitely worse than anything yet known. The unprovoked butchery of a huu- dred of the helpless residents of the village of Callieas. Porto Rico. may be taken as a sample. The villagers raised the American flag, when a company of Spanish soldiers who had left the city, returned and put all the inhabitants to the sword.

tum to the strikers at the American

I'VE are going to run this mill, and
we are going to run it full before long.
The jobs are there if the old men want
them, and if they do not they must
stand aside and see others take their
places. The American Steel and Wire
Company is paying more than its COM
petitors for drawing wire and the scale
will remain as it is. We will not COM
promise. We will not receive a COM
mittee from the strikers, neither will
we submit to arbitration
The strikers show no sign of weak
ening. Indeed, they claim to be more
sanguine than ever of ultimately WIN
ming out in the struggle.
