The Bfsmarck Monument.
fFrom the New York Journal.)


Immediately after Kaiser Wilhelm received the
sad tidings of the death of Primo. Bismarck, he
commissioned Reinhold Bagos, the great German
gus, which vas to be placed in the imperial
Dome, where the remains of Wilhelm I, rests. The
artist, after learning that tie order cllshed with
the last will of the prince, thought sar-
cophaeus would be built Recently however,
Begos had occasion 10 meet tie Kaiser in the
Cathedral, who said to him: ''Neyer mind re-
ports. just go to work the plans submitted to
me- l will have my way" In the middle OF the
sarccphagus is a life-sze figure OF the prince in
c,irassier uniform and at his feet lies large dog
the emblem OF fidelity. The entire structure as
well as the figures will be of white marble. The
sarcophagus will be ready soon after the Kaser's
return from Palestine.

Has our Commission gone to Paris with
distinct understanding of what ii is to
demand, or is it to get all 1t can? If the
Presidents instructions were definite why
should the public be led to believe they
include only the island of Luzon, while
Judge Day, Senator Hanna and Re-
publican convention promise for the Ad-
ministration that we shall get all the
Philippines? If we are to get all why
should the President in vague phrases
suggest that We are not to get all? Is
the complication the result of false prom
ises to influence the elections, or be-
cause the Commission is looking out for
somebody's interest in Philippine bonds?

There are people who are suspicious OF
the schemes of Secretary Alger and his
transportation man, Colonel Hecker, for
constructing railways in Cuba. There is
an impression that railway privileges
should not be bestowed on anybody with
out a quid pro quo. Colonel Hecker's rec
ord as transportation agent of the Gov
ernment for Cuba during the Santiago
campaign is hardly a proof of his eff
cheney.

Victor Napoleon has abdicated in favor of his
younger and more ambitious brother Louis,
leader Of the Bonapartists. In view of French
history the last hundred years the probability
that a Bonaparte may once more sit the throne
of France is by no means remote. The Panama
ard Drerfus scandals have done much to weaken
the hold of the republic upon the people. When
France is again in Of her periodic revolutions

 Charles Burton last Sunday after noon, while sailing along the Branford shore, reached a party of five persons from one of the islands near the Mon towese house. The party had rowed over to the island about mile from shore, in the morning, and were busily engaged in fishing, when some mis- chievous persons approached in another boat and quietly made off with the fish, ing party's craft, intending toward ev- ening to return the craft. The fishing party believed that they were doomed to remain on the island all night and were getting quite anxious. MT.

LEAGUE MEETING.
Revision of the Schedule Not Neces.
 Sary.

Revision of the Schedule Not Neces-
 sary.
 A meeting of the state league has been called for tonight. The managers will meet at the Garde and among other matters will discuss the sched- ule. Some of the managers complain of the number of games to be played between New Haven and Danbury teams, and also of the number of games that New Haven has at home. An examination of the schedule and of a record of the games already played show only sixteen games between the two for the entire season. New Haven by completing the season and schedule will have played that many with every other team excepting Bridgeport, with whom only fourteen games will have been played. It is to the advantage, financially, of both New Haven and Danbury that the majority of games be played in New Haven.e Waterbury, al- so will have played that many with Danbury, most of them in Waterbury.
 An examination of the schedule as prepared a couple of weeks ago show the following games at home and abroad for each team: Waterbury, at home, IA; abroad, P. Danbury, at home, Il; abroad, 21. New London, at home, 16; abroad, IS. Meriden, at home, IS; abroad, 16. Bridgeport, at home, 20; abroad IA. New Haven, at home, 9; abroad, 13. By this, Bridge port and New Haven, the best paying cities in the league, have more games at home than abroad, New Lon- don and Meriden break even and Danbury and Waterbury have more away than at home. Undoubtedly this is satisfactory to the Danbury man. ager, for he can scarcely draw flies to a home game. As for Waterbury, at the end of the season the number of games played abroad and at home will undoubtedly be even.
 Under the circumstances the justice of the kick and the need of the meeting are not apparent.

THE BULL AND THE SENTRY.


 Yesterday morning we had an amateur bull-fght here It appears that a bull went mad, and rushing to the sea plunged in. This evidently did not agree with the animal, for he quickly emerged, and the first object meeting his gaze was MT. Thomas Atkins" of the Manchesters, restfully standing at ease on sentry go, whom he thoughtlessly charged, utterly forget ting the fact that Tommy was not defenceless, being armed with no less formidable q weapon than rifle, mounted with a bayonet. The thunder ing charge of the enraged bull did not disconcert ''Tommy,.' He scorned to seek the shelter of the friendly sentry box close by, but immediately, regard less of consequences, brought his bayo- net to the charge, awaiting results. The bull-a plucky fellow-gallantly went for bayonet, which, in the stanch and tight grasp of MT. Atkins, was driven up to the hilt into the animals breast, causing him to halt for second or two, but, at the same time, the concussion sent the unfortunate SGHlIy IScilllS duu pdIlldlly him. The bull, though fatally wounded had still strength enough left to again charge at his now disabled and de- fenceless enemy, and doubtless this would have been the end of poor Tommy Atkins" but for the timely ar- rival of the guard, who succeeded in driving off the beast, which soon after expired. Tommy is now quite a hero in his own way, and has been dubbed by his chums the Matador," though I must relate that, like most amateurs, in his confusion and ignorance he neg lected to claim and appropriate the usu- al insignia of victory, viz, the bulls ear.-London Telegraph.
