the disgraceful attacks on Count Munster if Casimir-Parier had refused
 to conform to the wishes of the chan cellor. would have been to give the German ambassador indefinite leave of absence from his post.''
 The Vossiche Zeitung ridicules Gen eral Mercier's fear of war, saying:
 we have looked back through all the newspaper files, weekly journals and reviews, and nowhere do We find the slightest trace that at Christmas, 1894 we were 'tw0-fngers' breadth from war, but If we had been so no German war minister would have spent anxious nights staring es if hyp- notized at the blue heavens.
 "On January there was a reception at .5he Potsdam palace, at which the kaiser delivered 3 lecture on the fight between the Chinese and Japanese fleets at the Yalu river, but he never hinted of the possibility of war with France. On January II there was a great debate on foreign affairs in the reichs.ag. The secretary of foreign affairs took part and never even mentioned that relations with France were strained.
 And will General Mercier really try to make Us believe that Germany, even for an instant, threatened? And if such intentions existed and such threats had been made, how did the sudden change CIE front come about? By the publication of coloTless note tn the press. General Mercier credits his hearers with powers of credulity that even Munchausen could not claim
 The Post says: Any one who learns from the revelations of Merciar that France and Germany were in 1894 on the point of war will be nc., a little surprised. One involuntarily asks, how could the statesmen in Paris have fallen into such an error, after the German government had pub licly declared It had nothing to do with Dceyfus? Is it likely that i's would efterward have threatened war on account Of that very off1cer?"

WILLcTT SCORES CROkeR
Says Gov. Stone Forced Tammany
 Leader 10 Declare for Bryan.

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 21.-Joseph J. WilIstt of Anniston, who launched the Van Wyck presidential boom in his Tammany speech July 1, said today that Richard Croker's want of inter est in the Van Wyck movement was nc. surprising to him.
 He then pointed out that Van Wycl1 and had never been a Tammany man; that in 1884 Van Wyck, as chairman Of the Kings county delegation in the national convention, under the unit rule, swung the delegation, and there by the whole state delegation to CIeveland and against Roswell Flow CT. the Tammany candidate. He added that the ''upstart democracy" and Croker could not prevent him from getting .-he New York delegation next year.
 MT. WilIett further said that he supposed Croker's coming out for Bryan was because of Governor Stones oft repeated threats to throw Croker out Of the window of the neNs national convention if he should come there, and Croker thought the way 10 keep his seat was to support Bryan He said that he had heard that Stone had sworn 10 make Croker eat his words of last April, that Bryan cut no ice, end Perry Belmont's views on ex- pansion were corTeet.'' and it seemed Stone had made his threat good. MT. Willett does not regard CrCker's ap- parent antagonism to Van Wyck as an impeachment to the latter's presidential bO0m

 MT. Dickson will not see much that will afford him much qualification for the next two years. The fact s he is going to remain at Yuma, so that MT.

HE HEARD THE DOxOLOGY
And Immediately After Something
 Much HaTSher.

With the long drawn notes of the
 doxology still ringing in his ears a
 parishoner of the First NJ. E. church
 on Sunday found himself in the hands
 of Officer Thonan. accused of riding
 on the sidewalk. The officer saw him
 come out of the church. mount his
 wheel and roll serenly along the side
 walk as if he had a quit claim deed for it. The officer followed him two blocks and reminded him of the eXis- renca of the ordinance. The parish toner did not proffer the silly defense made by most of his compatriOts. that he did not read the papers and cC1se- qUently did not know that he was offending the municipality. Nor did he admit that he was violating tha ordinance wilfuEly It was a case not of Ignorance of the law which is un- eXcusable. burt of ignorance of the factsa which is equally ineXcusabie, He did not know that the sidewalk was there. The officer assured him that was precisely where it was: that the sidewalk is always next to the property I:na, abutting on the other side upon the ditch. if tIere should be q ditch, and if not, upon the road way. The lOcatiori of a sidewalk does not depend upon the material of which it is constructed. It is as much 0f sidewalk if it is made of gravel or mud as if paved With brick, stone, ar tificial or real.
 The gentleman acknowledged his misapprehen>ion and asked how much the fine would be. The officer said he was net clothed with judicial authority but that he had observed that in eases of infrirgements upon the the bicycle ordinance there was a uniform fine of B. He thought if the gentleman would put up that muc:c as bail for his in police court and failed 10 appear. TO banch warrant would be issued for him. The gentleman bailfd himself out and requested the officer to keep his name out of the papers. ! At the conclusion of this negotiation he doNo3ogy no longer rang in Fhe paris;honer'S ears. hut ali afternoon he stopped suddenly and looked around imagining ile heard.

HARRITY AT SARATOGA.
Says Both Gold and Silver Democrats
 Hope for Conservative Platform.

Philadelphia, Aug. 21- Former Democratic National Chairman Will
 liam R. Harrity of this city, who has just returned from Saratoga Springs, N. Y, when asked as to the reported political conferences Of leading and Representative democrats now at that place, said:
 T went with my family to Saratoga simply for the purpose of spending brief vacation there While 1 at tended no political conferences what ever. or. in fact, no such conferences were held. Not unnaturally, there were some informal talks whenever two or three democrats happened to meet at the same time, but in so far as I have knowledge of the subject there was al no time any discussion as to candidates. The uppermost thought in the minds of these whom I casually met there was the hope that the dem ocratic national convention of 1900 would pursue such a conservative course, that all democrats and citi- zens generally of independent tenden- cies might cordially and en.husiastic- ally support the platform and the candidate This disposition was mani fasted by those who believe in the free coinage of silver as well as those who oppose it."

petition was pretty generally signed by influential people. but :@c-1ed the convincing signature of the district attorney who tried him and the judge before whom he was tried. Those two officials could not yet be led to ac- knowledge that a grievous mistake had been made. An early petition un signed by the presiding judge, though by all the world beside, is not apt to be of much force and effect, and the petition in favor of Dickson was not.
 Under Sheriff Johns says that noth- ing has been very recently heard of Sheriff Munds, who is still hunting for the Camp Verde murderer, but he be- lieves that he will be captured.

A BRACE OF BAD BOYS
Who Are Altogether Too Handy
 With Firearms.

A very singular shooting scrape oc- cured Sunday morning about 1O:3O o'clock, three miles and q half nCrlth- west of PhoerfX in the vicinity of the 1esiderce of C. r. I.eitcn. The result of the shooting is tlldt George CharIe- hG-s, a young sitap-son of Henry Rim aud, lies at his home with a badly wounded leg. and the singular:ty of the event is that there was no apparent motive for the deed and no knowledge cf the identity of the e1ring youths, though their conduct seemed to be deliberate ard intentional. The story is as follows:
 One Sunday morning at the hour named two boys about sixteen or eighteen years cid, driving a bay horse in a cart came jogging along the road near MT. Lei'Tch's residence The boys were arrayed in white clothes, probably duck or linen. and there was ilotlIinig strange CT excited about their appearance. One of them had in his
