HOW BISMARCK BECAME RICH.
German Writer Says the Chancellor
SpecuIated ON state Secrets.

SpecuIated ON State Secrets.
A pamphlet has recently appeared in,
Germany entitled Bismarck and Rleich-
roeder." Its cuthor, says London Truth.
is a member of the old Junker party of
the name of Diebat Daher, and it pre-
fesses to give some curious details il.
regard to the present fortune of the ex-
chancellor and how it was acquired.
After the German war of 1870 the prince
received from the country two estates
of no great value, which, coupled with
his own paternal estate, brought him
in a fair revenue. He then left Bleich-
roeder to look after his private moneta-
ry affairs, with the result that he now
has fortune amounting to 150,000,O goo
marks. This, the author estimates, can
only have been made by stock exchange
speculations, based on the knowledge
thatthep prince derived from his position
at the head of the German government,
and which he confided to Bleichroeder
That, with the cares of empire on his
shoulders, he left his monetary affairs
in the hands of his banker is very pos
sib.e, and equally possible is it that his
banker did the best for his client But
/ should require good deal more evil
denee than is afforded in this pamphlet
to believe that the prince speculated on
state secrets in partnership with He
brew fnancier or that his fortune is
now anything like 15o.OO0,0O0 marks.

Rev. Stanley Wilson, of Ramona, Cal.
is perhaps the only clergyman in the
country who has record of preaching
a sermon and thrashing bully all in
the same Sunday forenoon, says the
Chicago Chronicle. Mr.. Wilson is an
athletic young man, being considered
the best boxer in the mountain region
of his county, and in addition to rid
ing the circuit embracing the various
hamlets in the hills is editor of the
Ramona Sentinel He preached the
other morning in the little Baptist
church that stands among the pines
of the hills back of Julian. After his
sermon Mr.. Wilson was accosted on the
streets by Dave Putnam, bully, who
has been in many scrapes. who demand
ed retraction of certain item that
lately appeared in the Ramona Sentinel
rejecting on himself
did you write that article about
me?" asked Putnam.
81 am responsible for it, if did not
write it," replied the preacher.
well, If you are responsible for
it, take that, "said Putnam, striking at
the eloquent young parson.
The blow failed to land The par
son sailed into the miner, and they
clinched. Then the dust of the streets
arose in a cloud. The miners gathered
around and cheered the preacher to the
echo. Within five minutes Putnam was
knocked out and the preacher was calm
~ busting off his plug hat.
Even before this occurred Mr.. Will
son did not lack popularity, but since
then his stock has gone up hundred
fold. Putnam has been laughed out of
the county.

The ancients believed that
rheumatism was the work of a
demon within a man. Any one
who has had an attack of sciatic
or infammatory rheumatism will
agree that the infliction is demon
lac enough to warrant the belief.
1t has never been claimed that
Chamberlain Pain Balm would
cast out demons, but it will cure
rheumatism, and hundreds bear
testimony to the truth of this
statement. One application re-
lieves the pain, and this quick
relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For
