laconic response of the impetuous kaiser,
and there the interview ended.
From that time until the reconciliation
W the emperor and his father there
was very little good feeling shown be-
tween young Prince Bismarck and his
king. In fact, although their action in
public up to a year and a half ago was
irreproachable from a diplomatic stand
point, it was an open secret that neither
bore any particular feeling of friendship
for the other.
But the German people are looking to
icy which was founded and established
by the peerless Bismarck, n there is
no one better fitted for that work han
the distinguished stateslnan's heir. And
now that the emperor has overcome all
his %prejudices toward the young prince,
il is rumored that he is anxious to have
the deeds of a Bismarck made famous
his reign, as was the case during the
sovereignty of the late Emperor William
I.
The present chancellor, Count Won Ho-
henlohe, has just attained his S1st birth
day, and his long and faithful service
to his country deserves the peace and
retirement which he SO ardently desires.

FOSSILIZED SNAKE,

In ages gone by there were snakes In
Colorado perhaps 100 feet in length. Cur
ator Will c. Ferril of the State Histori-
cal society considers himself at liberty
to make this statement, as the result of
recent discoveries made in the vicinity
of Florence, in which he and Governor
Thomas are interested, because they have
been asked by the discoverer of the evil
dence mentioned to make further nves-
tigation. Governor Thomas yesterday
sent all the papers submitted in the case
to Ferril as the proper state official to
look into the matter.
A huge monster has been discovered,
which proves beyond peradventure the
snake story. Near Florence w. F. Mas
ters of Victor found part of the petri-
fled body of one colossal snake. The
prehistoric reptile. had a head fully the
size of a ham n about the same shape.
The exceptionally large eyes are placed
as are those of an ordinary snake. The
stone head is 33 by 36 inches. A piece
of the stone tail found, which is SO inches
long, indicates that the reptile must have
been 80 inches in circumference. Mas
tiers seems to think from the development
of the tail that this particular snake was
a young one, not fully developed. In
that case those of the same family fully
grown would be larger and much long
err.
In sending to Governor Thomas the de-
scription of this important discovery
Masters says that he will forward a
sketch as soon as possible. Ferril was
asked by Governor Thomas to use every
means at his disposal to secure the spec
linen at once, together with as many 9TH
ers from the same locality as possible.
Curator Ferril thinks that as the ossified
head was found in the sandstone strata.
there must be more specimens near at
hand. These he will at once secure. If
possible. and will add them to the state
coliection.-Denver Special to New York

THE GERMAN SON
OF A GERMAN SIRE.

" IS reported In Berlin from semi-ofn-
clal sources that Prince Herbert Won Bis
marck will be appointed imperial chan
cellor In the event that Count Won Ho-
henlohe resigns.
Count Won Hohenlohe has intimated to
the emperor that he would like to be re-
leved from office, and he is tired of pub
nc llfe, and his resignation is expected
within a few weeks. 1t is believed that
the kaiser will not be averse to Won Ho-
%henlohe's resignation, for the chancellor
is getting old and seems to be unfit for
the task of opposing vigorously the OPP
ponents of the government.
Prince Herbert Won Bismarck, upon
shoulders the mantle so long worn
10y his distinguished father is apt to fall,
rs only a little past SO years of age, his
last birthday having occurred on the 2Sth
9of December, 1899. He resembles great
~ ms father, so much so, in fact, that
it is said that from a profile view one
would readily take him for the late chan
dcellor, If he were living.
his long experience in public affairs
and matters of state makes Prince Her
bert admirably fitted to fill the post
which 1T is believed will be offered him.
since ne was Il he has been engaged In
occupations of diplomacy, having been
brought into prominence at the beginning

out by his father, under whose personal
direction he was tutored and prepared
for a public life, and he grasped read
lily the fundamental principles of build
ing up a government and establishing a
leadership as they were explained by his
illustrious sire.
His first appointment came in 1874,
when he was made an attache of the
Prussian legation at Dresden. Here he
displayed such a thorough knowledge Of
diplomatic affairs and war tactics of for
elgn countries, and extracted such great
success from the most delicate compli-
cations, that his accomplishments were
brought to the special attention of the
present emperor's father with the result
that young Prince Herbert was appointed
secretary of the legation at Vienna.
So at the age of % Prince Herbert Won
Bismarck found himself associated with
the affairs of n of the most important
legations belonging to his country. But
this appointment was of short duration.
The prince went to Vienna in january,
and in April, three months after his ar
rival. he was recalled to Berlin to assist
his father in the latter's office. Here he
stayed several years, each year growing
