BISMARCK rs DEAD.
the Iron Chancellor Passes Peacefully
Away TO the Great neyond,

Ths Iron ChAnceilor Passes Peacefully
Away to the Great nsyond'
Berlin, Aug. i.-Prince Bismarek died
shortly before II p. m. Saturday.
His death was painless and peaceful,
having occurred while the prince was
unconscious. For several hours he had
been gradually sinking.
The death OF the ex-chaneellor comes
as surprise TO all Europe Despite
the family's denials, there was an un.
dereurrcnt OF apprehension when the
sinking OF the prince was hrst an-
nouneed, inspired more by what tho
family left unpublished than by any
information given. but when thu daily
bulletins chronieled improvements In
the princes condition, detailed his OK
tenSive bill OF fare aud his devotion to
his pipe, the public accepted DIR.
schweninger's assertion that there was
no reason why bismarck should not
reach the age OF 20.
BismArck's public career began In
isi7, when he was elected TO the Prus-
sian house Of bourges, three years later
being elected to tho German diet. His
life work was the cementing OF the
empire and giving the people part In
the government OF their country, which
made them more patriotic. IL took
several years to accomplish this result.

A Mysterious suicide.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 1.-The badly
deeompoaed body OF woman was
found In Lake Washington. The only
clue 10 the womans identity consists
OF pistol seal iard with the inserip-
ton "T. I. Peabody" and pair OF
gold-rimmed speetacles purchased In
Chicago. The body was that OF large
woman about 90 years of age. That
she had committed suicide was indl'
Gated by the fact that her cape, which
was tied around her waist, was alled
with rocks.

EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top fig ures at station indicate minimum temperature for the days; those underneath it. if any, the amount of rainfall or of melted snow in inches and hundredths during the last twelve hours. Isobars. solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure; isotherms, dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high means high barometrc pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather; low refers to low pres by cloudy weather and rains. Lows usually first appear the Washington coast When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probable; but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is i'm probable. With a high in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast. warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce OppOSite result

LIMA BEANS IN THE EAST.

NEW YORK. April 1.-The Journal of Com merce says: Within the past week or ten day there has been sharp upward movement in the price of California dried Lima beans. both on the coast and in this market, based on re- ports that a smaller acreage will be given to Limas this year and that the exceptionally dry weather in California would, even in the event that all of the ground heretofore devoted to Lmas were to be utilized for that crop pre- vent output at all approac ching in size that of the past few years. In some quarters 1t is fntmated that the reduction of acreage plant ed in Llmas is not so much due to unfavorabie weather conditions to the fact that the sup ply for several seasons has been greater than the demand notwithstanding the enlargement of the export trade, and has necessitated sales at loss to producers. Stocks in New York are now said to be in the hands of few par ties and it is rumoted that they contemplate forming a syndicate to absolutely control the market in view of the fact that interior buy CTS who have heretofore gone to the coast are now seeking supplies here, since this is the cheaper market. Philadelphia parties it is un- derstood. have been taking up everything they could find at q shade under quotations and are now believed to have control of a very large proportion of the available supply of spot goods in the East.

AMERICAS VAST RESOURCES.

Some idea of the almost unlimited resources of this country may be ob- tained from the abundance in which only six of its mineral products are found, viz: Coal, iron, gold, copper, pe- troleum and silver. The figures giving the total output of these mineral pro- ducts for the past year are not availa- ble, for the year 1896 the figures are as follows: Coal. $209, 1882, ,71S; iron, sS7,- S.620; gold, $57,0OO.O00 copper, s4S,- 7S6, ,080; petroleum, s42, 162, 1884, and silver. $30, ,461 666. What country on the globe can surpass the aggregate showing which the foregoing figures present? Of course some countries may forge ahead of the United States in the abundance of some one or more particular mineral products which they possess, but in the aggregate they must necessarily fall far short. But as yet, the mineral wealth of the United States is only par tially developed; the future alone can reveal the contents of our hidden treas ures.-Atlanta Constitution.
