men of Germany These friendships
were formed during his diplomatic car
eer in Great Britain. and became no
doubt emphasized, in 1892, through his
marriage to the Austrian Countess
Hoyoas. whose mother was an English
woman, daughter of Mr.. Whitehead,
the inventor of the Whitehead torpedo.
OF this union were born three chill
dren, boy and two girls. The boy is
the. youngest and was born in 1897.
During his stay in England, the
prince gained notoriety by shooting
and slightly wounding the Prince of
Wales, now Edward VII, during

CATERS for some ground game.
In the war of 1870, Prince Herbert,
who was then a captain of dragons,
was wounded and upon his return quit
the military service to enter upon q
diplomatic career.
His lack of popularity among the
people was not due SO much to his re-
puted arrogance as to an escapade
which, it is believed, by many, al
ways stood in the way of career
worthy of the son of so great father
When quite young man, Prince Her
bert eloped with the Princess Carolath,
who left her husband and children for
his sake. 1t was then thought that he
would marry her. but in accordance
with his fathers wishes he abandoned
her hardly a year later in Venice.
The princess has since lived upon the
charity of the Count Hatzfeldts, her
relatives on her mothers side.

BISMARCK
OLDEST SON OF THE IRON
CHANCELLOR
DIED SUNDAY MORNING
Refused to be Reconciled
to the Kaiser.

Berlin, Sept. 1S.-Prince Herbert
Bismarck -Schonhausen, the eldest son
of the Iron Chancellor, breathed his
last at an early hour this morning.
Death came peacefully enough, for
several hours previous to his demise,
the patient had lapsed into uncon-
sciousness. During the past week how
ever, Prince Bismarck had suffered un-
speakable agonies and his physicians
had been compelled to resort to IRE
quent injections of morphine in order
to alleviate the pain.
Doctors Schweningen and Won Nor
den are still undecided as to whether
death was due to the results of can
cerous growth or to chronic liver affec-
tion. A statement settling this ques-
ton will probably be issued some time
tomorrow.
Tomorrow mornings newspapers
will print eulogistic notices of Prince
Bismarcks life and so far as the cor
respondent of the Publishers Press
has been able to learn, not one Of
them will omit reference to the princes
persistent refusal to become reconciled
to the German emperor Ever since
the Iron Chancellor was deposed by the
kaiser, Prince Herbert has been among
During the past few years of the en-
perUr's reign, he has made repeated at
tempts to bring about reconciliation,
but they were resisted in the most de-
termined manner by the son of the man
who made the German nation.
The family of the prince believes
that the illness which resulted in his
death dates from the time of his faith
er's death, which was a great shock
to the son.
The following summer Prince Her
bert went to London and there suffered
a stroke of apoplexy, which left him
an aiing man ever since.
In the death of Prince Herbert Bis
marck, Germany loses not so much a
great man as the last conspicuous
bearer of a great name. Americans will
remember best by the reports current
in 1899, that he would be sent to this
country as Germany's ambassador.
These rumors were due to the fact that,
early that year, Prince Bismarck had
made a speech in the Reichstag eXtoll-
ing the achievements of this country.
Prince Bismarck was born in Berlin
nII
of his great father. 1t became known
early in his career that he had inher-
tied the iron chancellor's brusque man
ner and inability to make warm per-
sonal friends. Still, the number of his
admirers was not inConsiderable es-
pecially in England, where Lord Rose
berry, Joseph Chamberlain, Sir Charles
Dixie and the Marquis of Londonderry
considered him one of the foremost

CAR SHORTAGE

The Wheeling and Lake Erie and the
Valley railway, the latter branch Of
the B. e O., are suffering a car fam
inc. And what is true of these roads is
also true Of nearly every line in the
country. The heavy traffic in coal and
the demand for cars to move the crop
of fruit, vegetables and grain are re-
sposible for the condition. The rush is
not expected to be any less for several
months. Train men are doing extra
work as a result of the increased trade.

The Gregorys settled down to the new
life with great chcerfulness. About six
miles distant was the little county town,
with its weekly mail, small but very
fierce weekly paper, three stores, a
drinking saloon. gambling hell and
about fifty residences. There was Of
course the usual complement of me-
chanics. and a cotton gin and grist
mill. In the vernacular of the country
Lawsonville was right sharp" town.
1t was great loaiing resort. and on
Saturdays hundreds of horses would be
tied up to the racks and fences and the
owners Of said horses would be busily
engaged whiting sticks, chewing to-
bacco, drinking whisky, gambling and
talking politics. OF course. not all of
them doing these things. but some of
