Ball Team Goes Bump.

The st. Cloud Times has the follow
ing write-up relative to the death and
burial of its base ball team:
Observation-Disclosures June 1904,
the st. Cloud base ball team, after a
hard struggle and combat in an en-
deavor to win game before quitting
this vale of tears. The funeral was
held Sunday afternoon June Goth, on
the shady banks of the Sank River
and was largely attended by the Waite
Park base ball nine and numerous fair
damsels. Interment was made in the
tall grass by the wagon bridge and the
following epitaph was erected to their
memory.

ager were washed off in the suds. A
game had been contracted for Sunday
with Little Falls but at the last min
ute, three or four of the players
backed out and the date had to be
cancelled. The latter say they had a
chance to earn a little money playing
with Melrose against Sank Centre.
The Benton County Trotters have
decided to transfer their games from
the East Side to Athletic Park and the
fans can still see how tits done-if they
look real hard on a Sunday afternoon.

Grand, Gloomy and Peculiar.

The Minnesota building at the
Worlds Fair is a serious sarcasm in
stucco. Its style of architecture is grand,
gloomy and peculiar and its hidden
beauties strike the average inhabitant
of the Bread and Butter state with the
suddenness with which your great toe
collides with the arm chair when you
are searching for a match in the dark.
Standing there almost in the shadow
of the magnificent New York and
Missouri state buildings it gives one
the impression that Minnesota is
only back woods district after all.
We are not critical. We are ashamed.

For a Hundred Years.

For hundred years or more Witch
Hazel has been recognized as a SUI

Witch Hazel with other antiseptics, in
the form of salve. DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve is the best salve in the
world for sores, cuts, burns, bruises

Prince Bismarck's father trained

Prince Bismarck's father trained
him for his successor as chancellor
of tue German empire, and advanced
him rapidly in the diplomatic service
until at the age Of 40 years he was
minister Of foreign affairs, in which
position he took part in nearly every
important international transaction,
An incident that nearly wrecked
Prince Herbert's career, and that
caused the old chancellor great an
noyance, was Prince, then Count, Her
bert's elopement with Princess Caro-
lath Beuthen, the wife Of Prince Karl,
the head of that distinguished Silesi-
an house. The princess was of the
Hatzfeldt family, and young Bismarck
at the time was his fathers private
Secretary. Count Herbert lived with
the princess in Southern Italy for a
few weeks, and then at the command
Of his father returned to Germany.
The princess afterward was divorced
and has since died.
The title of Prince Bismarck and
the large fortune of the deceased will
go to his seven-yeard-old son, Otto.
The late Emperor Frederick gave
to Chancellor Bismarck extensive for
ests in Friedrichsruhe which have
since increased in value, and the chan
cellor gave to Prince Herbert $2,4OO,-
900 in securities and cash. The es-
tate is now estimated now to be worth
100000 exclusive of lands.
Prince Bismarck was born in 1S49
and was the oldest son of the late
Prince Otto Bismarck, the great chan
cellor of Germany. He studied law
in the Berlin and Bonn universities,
served in the Prussian army as lieu
tenant Of reserves during the Franco
German war Of 1901, and was Sc
verely wounded at the battle of Mars
la-Tour. In 1878 Herbert became Of
fetal of the department of foreign af-
fairs, and was assistant to his faith.
er, then chancellor. He was attach
ed to the German legations at Berne
and at Vienna from 1874 to 1877. La.
ter on the deceased became counselor
of the German embassy in London,
and subsequently occupied the same
position at st. Petersburg. In 1884 he
was appointed minister extraordinary
at The Hague, and in 1885 he became
under secretary of state in the depart.
ment of foreign affairs.
Prince Herbert leaves five children,
two girls and three boys. His broth.

whom are alive. The Countess Won
