THE KAISER'S MOTHER.
Germany According to the
English Model

Empress Frederick did not have a
happy life in Germany. She went over
20 Germany from England with no.
tion that the Germans were d trihe
unciyiized, that they needed TO be i'm
proved, and that it was her duty TO
apply TO them curative dose OF Eng
fish civilization. In way his was Mr.
Gladstonc's view Of Germany. lie
knew both France and italy well, and
for him the Frcuch and Italians We're
'he two European nations in which a
high cirili4pton prevailed, says the
Hartford Courant.
AZ a matter Of course the German
women, and particularly the Berlin
women, did not agree that they need
ed TO be reformed according 10 the
English model Empress Frederick,
however, was certain that She could
not be mistaken, and she took her self
imposed duty in all seriousness. 1t is
probable that she did enlarge some
what he sphere of activity Of the Ber-
lin women; got them TO doing things
they had not done before; made thea
understand the functions Of a pres
ident, secretary and treasurer. But
the process was not pleasant for her.
Bismarck believed too, that She mixed
in serious politics too much for Ger
muny's good. Then her husband died
and she was left without foothold.
BY not uncommon twist Of the
conscientious feminine mind, she de-
cidcd from the first to regard herself
as missionary sojourner in Ger
many: and this is the position she al
ways held among the German people,
down TO her last days Of illness and
pain.

TELEPHONE IN A HAT.
Clever Entrapment of the Writer oil
an Obscene Letter by Postal
officer.

In connection with the work of the
chief inspector of the post office de-
partment a story is told of young
attorney who unwittinCly gave evil
dence against himself. He had writ
i'ten an obscene letter to a married
woman. and was suspected by her
husband, who accused him of the act.
Leading him into an inner Office,
locking the doors, and displaying a
loaded revolver, the attorney admit
ted his crime and tainted his VIC
tim. How to trap him was the ques-
ton, as he denied the charge in pub
lie. but laughed at the man in pri-
vate. SAYS a Washington correspond
ent of the New York Sun.
After the expenditure Of much
thought, a miniature telephone was
rontrived, with an almost invisible
| trausmitter in the top Of a silk hat
| worn by the aEgrsycd husband, with
an insulated gold wire connecting
with receiver in possession of a
postal inspector. Another visit was
paid to the attorneys Office. and
again. behind closed doors, he ac-
! knowledged repeatedly that he had
! sent the letter. But this time the in
! Spector at the other end of the wire
! heard every word. When confronted
with the evidence the man broke
down and confessed.
