IRON COURAGE OF BISMARCK.
he Was Cool Even When His Life Was

In Danger.
In 1866 Bismarck was returning to
his home from the palace, Were he
had beento see the King. While pass
ing through the street called Inter den
Linden, and quite near the place where
Hoedel and Modelling afterward at
tempted the life of Emperor William,
he 5nddenly heard a shot fired close
behind him. He turned sharply around
and saw a young man who, with a
smoking revolver was aiming at him.
He strobe up to the man at once and
seized the arm that held the revolver,
while with the otter hand he grasped
the. throat of the would-be-murderer.
:. The latter, however had had time to
pass his wearon into his left hand, and
D5T fired three shots III quick success
sion. Bismarck felt himself hurt in
the shoulder and in one of his ribs.
but he held his assailant fast until
some soldiers came up and took hold of
him.
Then Bismarck walked home at a
brisk pace. and reached his own house
long before anybody there could know
what had happened. The Countess had
some friends with her when her hus-
band entered the drawing room. He
greeted all in friendly manner and
begged to be excused for a few min
utes, as he had some urgent business to
attend to. He then walked into the
next room, where his desk stood, and
wrote to inform the King of the occur
renee. Having attended to this duty he
returned to the drawing-room and
made one of his little standing jokes.
We'll, are we to have no dinner to-
day. You always keep me waiting"
He sat down and partook heartily of
the dishes set before him, and it was
only when the dinner was over that he
walked up to the Countess, kissed her
on the forehead, wished her in the old
German way "Gesegnete MahlZeit"
may your meal be blessed, and then
added, You see am quite WELL" She
looked up at him. "Well,' he continu-
ed, you must not be anxious, my
child; somebody has fired at me, but it
is nothing, as you see"
In 1850, when the tide of political
passion still ran high, after the storm
of the preceding years, he went one
day into Rathskeller in Berlin to take
a glass of Grunthaler beer; man near
him, feeling himself supported by the
presence of his friends, began to abuse
member of the royal family. Bis
marck looked at him and said quietly
IF you have not left this room before
l have finished my beer I'll break this
glass over your head" which he pro-
ceeded to do, according to his promise,
calmly paying for the broken glass
afterward and walking leisureIy away.
