The Iron Chancellor was not only a statesman, able to handle abstract theories of government, but a shrewd player o f the lesser games o f life. When he represented Prussia «6 the diet of Frankfort in 1866 he had reason to suspect that his let ters and dispatches were tampered with by the Austrians. Other di plomatists suffered from the same meddling. One day after a stormy meeting Bismarck and the repre sentative from Hanover .walked away together, and as they walked the Hanoverian touched on the sore subject and asked Bismarck if be had found a way to get his letters through. The chancellor replied that the representative should know presently. The prince as the two strolled along led the way through dingy by- paths into a slum. Drawing on. a thick pair of gloves, he entered a little shop where the poor bought tea, cheese, pickles, lamp oil and such commodities. The astonished Hanoverian followed. A stupid looking lad stood behind the coun ter. "Boy,” demanded the chancellor, “ do you sell soap ?” “ Yes, sir,” responded the boy, placing on the counter a variety of strong scented cakes. When, after a careful examina tion, Bismarck had selected his soap he thrust his hand into his pocket and drew out an uninclosed letter. He gave an exclamation as o f dis may and surprise. Apparently an noyed at his forgetfulness, he cried, "Boy, d o you sell envelopes ?” Envelopes of a cheap grade were produced, and Bismarck put the let ter in one. Then he asked for pen and ink and set out to write the address, but his heavy glove hinder ed him. “ Here, boy,” he exclaim ed, throwing down the pen, “ just write this address for me!” When the scrawl was finished: Bis marck took the letter and left the shop. “ There,” said he, putting ^he let ter to his companion’s nose, “ what with the soap, the herring, the ean- dles and the cheese I don’t tmnk they’ ll smell my dispatch under fjhat writing.” — New York Presa. * ---------------------- ; .

One of the most remarkable ac complishments in long distance horseback riding was in the early part o f the last century when Squire Obaldistoue, at Newmarket, Eng land, on a wager o f $5,000, was to ride 200 miles within ten hours. In the Circuit Court o f the State The horses were changed at the end o f the four mile circuit, some of o f Oregon, for the County them being ridden two or three o f Yamhill. times, and one.

A kitten abont six months old was taken to a house a few miles distant from its birthplace, confined in a room and tenderly cared for ; during a week and then set at lib e rty . It was supposed to have be- [ come habituated to its new sur roundings, but it returned to its old home on the day o f its release. The sense o f locality and direc tion was exhibited still more strik ingly by an old tomcat which was stolen and carried a distance of twenty miles, confined in a bag. The cat was imprisoned, but made its escape and in a few days reappear ed in a pitiable state at the home o f its former master, which was sep arated from that of the thief by s high wooded cliff.— Scientific Amer ican ____ ________________ __ A Scotch preacher had in his con gregation an old woman who was deaf. In order to hear the sermon each Sunday this old lady would seat herself at the foot of the pulpit stairs. One day the sermon was about »Jonah, and the preacher be came very rhetorical. “ And when the sailors threw Jo nah overboard,” he said, “ a big fish ■wallowed him up. Was it a shark that got ’im ? Nay, my brethren, it was ne’er a shark. Was it a sword fish that eat him? Nay” — “ It was a whale,” whispered the old lady excitedly. “ Hush, Biddie,” said the preacher indignantly. “ Would ye tide th’ word o’ God out of yer an» meenia- ter’s mouth?” — Success Magazine. husband: anil Robert Hill and Blanche Hill, hie wife.
