is peculiar how much enjoyment you get

he OF his silver watch. present on his
birthday. He pulled 1t out In the car on
the first opportunity. He gazed at 1t
admirlngly. and hoped the other passen-
gers did. Then he caught sight OF the
register at the other end OF the car, and
compared notes with his watch. The

lated. "the street car clock is kee-rect,

MAN OF MARK.
One of the Commanding Figures of
the Nineteenth Century.

NEW YORK, July 3O.-In the death
Of Bismarck the world loses one Of its
most commanding figures. Among the
names of the European statesmen Of
the nineteenth century whose achieve
ments have illustrated the history Of
their times there is not a name more
renowned than that of Bismarck. He
was the Strong man" Of his generation.
He possessed the genius of power. He
it was who laid the foundation and
crowned the edifice of the new German
empire. He transformed the man Of
Europe. He overthrow or Inundated
the potentates who stood in his way.
He gained the chief object Of his desire,
gained it through the ways and by the
methods Of a conqueror.
The purpose of his life was to unity
the detached states Of Germany, bind
ing them together under the authority
of the imperial sceptor, surmounted by
the imperial eagle and defended by the
sword. and whatever means might be
needed for the carrying out of this
purpose were regarded by him as JUS
tifiable. His career was tempestuous
enc. Long ago he was described as the
imam of blood and iron" and it was
through these agencies that he won the
triumph with which his name is as
Sociated.
AS for the man Bismarck he was of
massive frame, standing over six feet
in height and weighing at one time $50
POUNDS. He was very sturdy until
overtaken by old age. In his early

the death of Gerlnany's Strong man."
In two. things upon which Bismarck
had set his heart when he was in
power he failed. He could not, with
all his efforts, reduce the Roman Cath
Ollie church to subserviency to the
government, and he could not, with
all his Draconiap laws, destroy social
ism. 1t was a long and bitter struggle
that he had with the church, but he
was discounted, and the MAY laws"
were repealed It was shameful cruel
ty that he practiced upon the socialists
who, however, increased and multiplied
under 1t. He could not overcome the
conscience or the faith of the people
of Germany. He was an enemy Of
popular freedom. He was the Trainer
of mighty military empire.
