BlSMARCK'S BITTERNESS.
His Story of Forced Resignation
Strange Mixture of Eloquence
and Loquaciousness.

After describing his estate, the prince
began speaking English-"so that that
fellow" pointing to the coachman.
may not understand us"-and surprised
me by his fluency, his command OF
ldlomatic expressions, and his very
slight accent, says Henry Willard, in
"A Visit to Bismarck" in Century. He
began with these words: "Since l have
been kicked out of Office" which so
astonished me that begged pardon for
lnterrupting him and said: Prince
that is Americanism; where did you
pick it up?" He answered that he did
not remember where, but the express
sion lifted his case exactly, for the
manner of his disposal was but the
equivalent of an application of Che toe
OF boot. He then proceeded to tell
the story of his forced resignation.
Such rapid flow of keen wit, of cut
ting sarcasm and bitter denunciatior
as followed for half an hour I had
never heard before and never heard
again. 1t was strange mixture of
eIoquence and loQuaciousness. Bis
strong as his stature led enc to ex-
pect, but it had pleasant sound. A
most intense sense of the wrong ard
ingratitude he claimed to have suffered
made itself manifest. AS an exam
pie of his unjust treatment, he re-
counted what he had done to unity
the nation and to aggrandize the
Hohenzollern dynasty. There was not
only an unhesitating assertion of his
own deserts as the founder of the Ger
man empire, but an almost sneering
and even contemptuous depreciation Of
other performers in the historic drama
Of his time, including even the old
Emperor William, the unfortunate
Emperor Frederick and Expresses Au-
gusta and Frederick. His language
became perfect diatribe when he re-
ferred to the present emperor and some
of his ministers, whom he held re-
sponsible for his removal. His ex-
pressions regarding them were not only
amazing, but embarrassing to me. as
had close social relations with many
of the ministerial objects of his scorn.
Some OF those rogues picked out of
the very gutter" he once said. Fortu-
nately, he did not stop for any word of as
sent, but went right on until his pent-
up wrath was expended. AS he re-
marked, when it was all spent:
1T was quite a. relief to me to have
this opportunity to speak without re-
straint to gentleman who, am sure,
will honor my confidence"
Even were 1t not for this restriction,
some of the sayings heard and noted
down at the time were so extraordinary
that, if they were repeated, their reality
would probably be doubted, and certain
ly the lese-majesty they involved would
render it unsafe for me to venture again
on German soil.

dlestick by jabbing the sharp point of
big pocket-knife into the wall. The
knife had fiat double-edge blade,
upon which there stood a gutterins
candle-end, which was our only light.
AS soon as the circle was complete,
Number Two, who was the last to ar
rive, took up his place by the candle;
perhaps that he might better see the
faces of his comrades, perhaps because
he fancied that nearness, even to this
miserable emblem, constituted the
place of precedence in the assembly.
"Fellow-councillors," he said, Il am
here as promised to report progress,
but regret to say, as you must already
have assumed, that there is no progress
to report. Our glorious jubilee scheme
has failed, not for want of care on my
part, but because there has been a
traitor in our midst. The more
think of it, the more irresistibly am
l forced to that conclusion. Gentle
men, how did our late chief, Number
One, meet his death? We took it for
granted-and admit that took it for
granted-that the irreparable loss
which the society sustained by his re-
moval was the result of an accident.
But does it not strike some of you as
strange that, ever since that lamenta-
bic accident, things have gone wrong
with us, and that some power seems
to have been at work whose object ap-
rarently is to pull the Inch pin out OF
our most carefully planned projects?
What about the unaccountable occur
renee in connection with the punish
ment which we proposed to mete out
to Lord Cranthorpe? Was that the re-
suit of another accident, or was it the
deliberate fOiling of our schemes by
some one that knows our secrets? And
now what about the jubilee fiasco? I
pledge you my word, brother council
lors, that the project was carried out
exactly as had planned it. The GEL
luloid ball, containing an explosive SO
deadly and so sure that a smart rap
with the finger end would have suff1ced
to explode it, was hung, as promised
you it should be hung, exactly over the
spot where the queen was to pass.
And as sh~ went by, I, with my own
hand, cut the thread and saw the ball
fall to the ground, scarcely a yard be-
hind her carriage. What was the re-
suit? A miserable failure! But why:
Because the ball had been tempered
with. Because we have been fooled.
Instead of coming here tonight flushed
with success and proud to receive your
congratulations, am here feeling like
and looking like a fool. And only be-
cause of treachery, black, hell-damned
treachery!"
He stopped speeches. with passion.
and glared around the assembly like 9
madman. AS for myself, the very
heart of me went down into my boots
No doubt his next words would be tt
denounce me-. If, as he said, and sale
rightly, he had been fooled, and the
ball had been tempered with, by whom
could it have been done but by the
councillor who had volunteered to as.

Heating Power Of Coal.

The heating power of coal is measured
nv the amount of carbon contained in
ton or pound. Anthracite coal is found
in many countries, but it is only in the
United States and in England that the
article is high grade-92 per cent. or bet
ter. Even our coal differs widely in it's
constitutional elements. One kind holds
more ash than another. Still another
variety holds more clinkers, in spite of
repeated burnings. The best coal leaves
no clinkers and makes very little ash.

CHAPTER XII.

EXIT COUNCILLOR NUMBER FIVE.
The next meeting of the council was
arranged to take place, as the reader
will remember, in disused shed that
stood on the brickf1elds near the ceme-
terry at Marlborough. There we were
to assemble at midnight, and thither
accordingly betook myself at the ap-
pointed hour.
It was not cheerful spot. Though
fairly roomy, the building was a mere
shed. For what use it had orig
inally been intended l cannot say.
There was neither fireplace nor win
dow. 1t consisted merely of four wood
en- walls, a roof and a clay floor. A
grave could not have been barer, for
from floor to ceiling there wasn't so
much as a nail on which to hang ones
hat. Someone had improvised a can

TALE OF SAVAGE WARFARE.
Atrocities Committed by Indians in
Battle at Fort Phil
Kearney.

In DR.. Cyrus Townsend Brady's Indi-
an Fights and Fighters, in Pearson's, he
gives the following narrowing picture
of the fate of Capt. Fetterman:
I'm the afternoon, with a heavily
armed force of 80 men Darlington went
in person to the scene of the battle
The following order was left with the
officer Of the day: Fire the usual sun
set gun, running white lamp to mast
head. If the Indians appear fire three
guns from the 12-pounder at minute in
tervals, and late substitute red Ian
tern for the white Pickets were left
on two commanding ridges as signal OBJ
servers, as the command moved for
ward. The women and children were
placed in the magazine, building well
adapted for defense, which had been
stocked with water, crackers and va
rious supplies for an emergency, with an
officer pledged not to allow the women to
be taken alive, if the general did not re-
turn, and the Indians should overcome
the stockade.
Passing the place where the greatest
slaughter had occurred. the men
marched cautiously along the trail
Bodies were strung along the road all
the way to the western end, farthest from
the fort. Here they found Lieut.. Grum-
mond. There were evidences of a des-
perate struggle about his body. Behind
little pile of rock, making a natural
fortification were the two civilians who
had been armed with the modern Henry
rifle. BY the side of one SO empty shells
were counted, and nearly as many by the
side OF the other brave frontiersman.
Behind such cover as they could obtain
near by lay the bodies of the Oldest and
most experienced soldiers in Fetter-
mans command.
liz front of them they found no fewer
then 50 great gouts of blood on the
ground and grass, and number of dead
ponies, showing where the bullets of the
defenders had reached their marks, and
In every direction were signs of the
aercest. kind of hand-to-hand fighting.

Loyalty to the dominant republic

ton is through the election of a demo-

FROM \ PRESCOTT VIEWPOINT

The Prescott Spectator says: The
wolf has adopted the garb of the
sheep and now it is difficult at first
glance to distinguish between them.
1t was only a few weeks since that
certain gentlemanly politicians and
newspapers were contending rroct
srenuously against the railroad COM
mission idea. 1t was practically the
only complaint that they had against
not for his sO-called anti-raiIrOad pro-
cliVties. 1t is rather humorous now
to find this same crowd whooping it
up for a railroad cOmmission-and an
appointive one At that-but they have
turned the venom of their attack upon
Mcbride personally, and say that he
must be defeated SO that the people
may get an honestly appointed rail
road commission, Isn't that consist
ency with a vengeance The facts are
the machine has discovered that the
people We're not to be trifled with in
the railroad commission matter, and
if they the lobby, desired to be in it
at all, they must change their tao
ties. SO change they did; they will
cOncede the commission but they are
against Mcbride, They will, if vic
torious in the primaries, whoop it up
for a commission. but will kill off Nc
Bride in the convention Then they
will nominate 4 weakling and the
commission proposition will become
the same sort of a farce in Washing
ton that il was in Oregon"

WILL PEOPLE BE FOOLED

The railroad lobby tried to fool the
Spokane republican convention with
the elective commission dodge, but an
overwhelming majority of the dele
gates refused to nibble at the bait
The convention adopted strong reso-
lutions nstructing the delegates to
the state convention to vote first, last
and all the time for an appointive
railway commission and for the nomi-
nation of Governor Mcbride. Barely
fifteen votes could be mustered by the
lobby under the leadership of Judge
Gordon and Sam Stern, both railroad
attorneys.

THAT TEST OATH.

The Politician" of the Spokesman
Review says:
The Ankeny men, who control the
republican county central committee
in Walla Walla county, have prescribe
ed a test oath for voters in the repub-
lican primaries. \ voter who is chal-
lenged must make affidavit to the fact
that he voted the straight republican
ticket two years ago. This method
they figure, Will bar many anti-An-
keny republicans, who voted the dem
ocratic Legislative ticket in the last
election.
1t is lucky for the Ankeny men that
the affidavit says nothing about the
state election of 1900. In that famous
contest every Ankeny leader in the
state, with every voter he could in
tluence, cast his ballot for John r
Rogers, democrat, for governor
Party loyalty is a great thing for in
sincere and jObbing politicians to con-
jure with when it suits their pur-
poses"
