sismarck's Test of Won moIke

In telling in the August McCfure's of an interview with Bismark in 1867. in which they discussed the Austrian war. Carl Sciurz says:
 Then he came to speak of the bat tie of KOniggratz, and especially of that anxious moment in it before the arrival of the Crown Prince in the rear of the Austrian, when some Prussian attacks had failed and there were signs of disorder among the re- pulsed troops.
 " 1t was an anxious moment said Bismark, "a moment on the decision of which the fate of the empire de- pended. I confess I felt not a little nervous. looked at Moltke, who sat quietly on his horse and did not seem to be disturbed by what was going on around us. I thought I would test whether he was really as calm as he appeared. rode up to him and asked him whether I might offer him a cigar. since I noticed he was not smoking. He replied that he would be glad if I had one to spare I--pre- sented t6 him my open case in which were onl ytwo cigars, one a very good Havana, and the other of rather poor quality. Moltke looked at them and even handeld them with great attention, in order to .ascver- tain their realtive value, and then with slow deliberation chose the Ha- vana. Very good he said compos- edly. This treasured me very much. I thought, if Moltke can bestow so much time and attention upon the choice between two cigars. things can not be very bad. Indeed, few min utes later we heard the Crown Prince guns. we observed unsteady and con- fused movements on the Austrian positions and battle was won"

THE CHARM OF ISLANDS.
What Is Missed by Those Who Live
Far From tho Sea.

No men Of the world are so to be
pitied, think. as those who dwell far
from the sea. They shall never know
but piece Of life. A plain, to be sure,
Is very well. 1t responds delicseely
enough 20 the humor Of the seasons,
changing from green to gold, from
gold to dun, from dun to white. 1t
has, too. its moods. its daughters, its
melancholies, its rushings Of the wind,
its illimitability Of the dark. A hill,
though, is better-that is, hill that
looks across a plain, never one that is
huddled among its fellows, for there
one Is caught like a beetle in a cup.
A hill gives one a sense Of freedom
and a perspective upon the world. II
Is something to look down on the par
quetry Of field and town and wood and
stream. to keep vigil upon the drama
woven invisibly below ones eyes. And
1t has moments-a hill; certain nights
Of stars, certain bursts Of storm. GER
tain iridescent afternoons, when the
whole tragedy Of autumn is unrolled
at ones feet.
But above all else in the world give
me an island! There is your true mi
crocosmos! There you hold In your
hand, as 1t were. the essence and epit-
ONE Of the universe. Your own earth
spreads under your feet. Your own
sky hangs over your head. Your own
sea encircles you. Your own portion
Of life is meted out to you day by day,
distinct from that Of other men. For
not the least charm of an island is its
privacy. An islet. of course, l mean
one from which you may catch the
CLINT Of water on every side. Other.
wise your island Is no better than a
pasture. Whether you be a hermit or
whether you have book Of verses
underneath the bough-and the requi-
site concomitants - or whatever be
your personal circumstances, you are
yet divided from a hostile or indiffer-
ent world. You are at liberty to feel
and to test your own personality. You
are not overborne by the rush 6f hui
manity which is the burden Of terra
firma.-Scribner's Magazine.

A CASTELLANE PIRATE.
Took SuItan's Library and Demanded
Ransom For Its Return.


In 1911 Jean Philip de Castellane
was commander Of the French man-of-
war Notre Dame de la Garde. Henry

the sultan the release of certain
French prisoners. De Castellane car
ried his negotiations to a successful
conclusion, and the sultan as a peace
Offering sent to the French commander
twenty Arabian horses for the king.
"Just as the Notre Dame was about to
weigh anchor the pretender to the Mo-
roccan throne gained q decisive victory,
and the sultan decided to flee for his
life. He engaged passage for himself
and harem on a Dutch merchantmen.
and to De Castellane he intrusted his
library, one of the most extensive col
lections of Arabic manuscripts and
books in existence. The great Mulay
Ahmed was the founder Of the library.
Arriving at the place OF rendez-
vous, Commander de Castellane sent
word to the sultan that he could have
his library for 5000 ducats, the price
Of transportation.
"The sultan protested that he had
made no such agreement and that be-
sides he did not have the money to
pay the demand, whereupon De Cas-
tellane sailed away.
"He had not gone very far when a
