STORIES OF De BlOWlTZ.
Famous Correspondence Great Beat
and His Dependence on a Valet.

Famous Correspondents Great Beat
and His Dependence on a Valet.
M, de Blowitz, the famous correspond.
ent Of the London Times in Paris, gave
me Il lecture of about an hours dura-
ton on all manner Of political topics,
says a correspondent Of London Life.
His intellect, like others Of his race, is
sharp and his method of explica ton
lucid enough. l may mention two of
NJ. de BlOwitz's journalistic feats which
stamped him as the correspondent par
excellence of his age, At the time of
the ever memorable Berlin congress NJ.
de BlOwitz applied to the German chan.
cellor for an early copy Of the treaty,
which was to be signed Oh certain
Saturday morning; but, although the
request was made through the medium
Of two ambassadors, Bismarck refused
to entertain 1t. To the intense surprise
Of the other correspondents, NJ. de Blow.
itz In huff" announced his intention
Of leaving Berlin forthwith, and he did
so, but with the treaty In his pocket!
That precious document never left M. de
Blowitzs letter case until Brussels was
reached, and there 1t was put on the
wire and published by the Times In a
second edition on the Saturday at the
very moment that the plenipotentiaries
In Berlin were signing 1t! Needless to
say that no other paper had 1t until the
following Monday or to describe the
wailing and crashing Of teeth in Der.
lin and Cologne and the other great
newspaper centers of Germany. The
second great feat Of NJ. de Blowitz was
that Of interviewing the sultan. Such
a thing had never been previously
dreamed Of, and, as NJ. de Blowitz
rightly said, no one will ever do it
again.
An anecdote is related of De Blowitz
which illustrates how very corpulent
he was even several years ago, says
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
When the miracles Of Lourdes were at.
tracing worldwide attention, the shrine
was visited by many Roman Catholic
pilgrims from England, including sew.
eral members Of the ducal family of
the Towards, whose head is the pres
ent Duke of Norfolk. This was copy"
for the Times man, and he expressed
a desire to accompany the pilgrims to
Lourdes. Although born Jew, De
BlOwitz was fervent and devout Ro-
man Catholic. Moreover, he was a
man who liked his comfort. y
When he applied to the Englishmen
for permission to 60 with them on
their devotions, they consented, bat
with the provision that he must not be !
accompanied by his valet--a matter

their religious enterprise. The great
man demurred. "How can 60 with

know that l have not for years been

But the pilgrims were not to be re-

ostentatious as the great man was in

shown by his staying at home in his
luxurious quarters.
