Prince Bismari's Attiloile To
wards William I.
CLOSE TO FIRST MASTER
The Emparor Was a Hard Workr.
Close Student His Temper,
Outbursts Were Fw.
(Review the Reflections and Reaii
niiixncos of Otto, Princ-o von Bis
marck. )
W'c art' told that from the moment
when he- began to exerci.se the func
tion of Recent the Prince of Prussia,
afterward Emperor William I., felt so
keenly thx want of a proper business
education that he shunned no labor
by day or night in order to make good
the deficiency. When he was' transac
ting public affairs he really worked se
riously and conscientiously. He read
all papers which were sent in to him.
not merely those which attracted him.
and he studied treaties and laws so that
he might form an independent judg
ment. He knew no pleasure which would
take away time from affairs of State.
He never read novels or other books
wnich did not concern his duties as a
ruler. He did not smoke or play cards.
His only recreation was. afn?r a hard
day's work, to sit in his box at the
theatre; but even there Bismarck, as
Minister, was allowed to seek him out
for pressing nusiness, and make re
ports to him in the small room behind
the 'box and receive his signature. The
ex-Ciianeellor recalls that "I never saw
the slightest touch of annoyance when.
in difficult circumstances, I had to
wake him up at 2 or 3 o'clock in the
morning to ask for a hasty decision."
We learn further that, besides the dili
gence to which he was impelled by his
strong sense of duty, the Emperor Wil
liam I. was helped in fulfilling the ob
ligations of a ruler by an unwonted
measure of clear and healthy under
standing, a common sense which was
not dependent on acquired knowledge
nor limited by it. He was hindered,
however, in comprehending affairs by
the tenacity with whic'h he clung to
princely, military and local traditions;
it was always difficult for him to give
them up, or to turn into new paths
when the course of circumstances made
it necessary. Such a change of direc
tion was apt to appear to him in the
light of something impermissible or
undignified. He clung firmly to im
pressions and convictions, just as lie
did to the persons by whom he -was
surrounded and to the things he used;
The remembrance of what his father
had done in similar cases or would
have done always had much influence
on 'him; especially during the French
war did he have always before his
eyes the remembrance of a parallel
course in the war tor liberation.
It is evident that Bismarck regarded
William I. with respect, sympathy and
affection. On page 316 he testifies that
"he was governed by the feeling of
jui.ice not only toward his friends and
ervants, but also in struggles against
his onnonents. He was a gentleman.
expressed in terms of a king, a noble
man in the first sense of the word.
who never felt himself dispensed from
the nrincinle noblesse oblige by any
temntations of the power which be
longed to him; his attitude, both in
home and foreign policy, was always
subordinated to the principles of a
cavalier of the old school and to the
normal highmindedness of a Prussian
officer. He held fast to honor and loy
alty not only toward princes, but also
o his servants, even down to his valet,
f. in momentary excitement, he tres
passed on fine regard for royal dignity
and dutv, he soon recovered and re
mained 'e.verv inch a king. and. more
over, a just and kindly King and an
lionor-lovinc officer, whom the thought
of his Prussian porte-opee kept in the
right path." It is at the same time ad-
mitted that the lmperor eouni ux-e
temper. He did not let himself, How
ever, be infected by the ill temper of
any one with whom he was convers
ing: he would break off the discussion
in a dignified and friendly manner.

Outbreaks like that at Versailles, when
at first he refused the title of Emperor,
were very rare. "If he got angry with
any one to whom he was well disposed,
as, for instance, with Count Roon or
myself, then he was either excited by
the subject itself or he had been bound
beforehand by unofficial promises
wnich could not be defended. Count
Roon listened to explosions of this
kind as a soldier at the front listens
to the rebuke of a superior officer
which he believes to be undeserved,
but 'his nerves suffered from it. and
they affected 'his physical health. I
elid not experience outbreaks of anger
on the part of the Emperor so often
as Roon, and they never had a conta
gious but rather a cooling effect on me.
I i.atl thought it out for myself in this
way: Any irregularities in a ruler
who showed me confidence and good
will to such a degree as did William I.
should be for me of the nature of vis
major, which it was not for me to re
sist; I must look on it as I would on
the weather of the sea or any natural
event to which I must accommodate
myself. This impression rested on my
personal love for the Emperor William
I., not on my general conception of
the relation of a king by the grace
of God to liis servants. Toward him I
was not personally sensitive; he could
treat me with much injustice without
creating feelings of indignation in one.
The feeling that I had been insulted
was one which I had toward him as
little as I should have had in my fa
ther's house. This did not prevent me
from being led into a passive opposi
tion to him by the nervous excitement
whic'h was engendered by uninterrupt
ed struggles when I found him lacking
in understanding in political matters
and interests, or prejudiced against
them by the Empress or iby religious
or Masonic court intrigues." Bismarck
adds that "now, in thinking over this
quietly, I disapprove of this passive
opposition and regret it as in remem
bering points of disagreement one has
similar feelings after the death of one's
father.."
THE CAT SHOW.
(Chicago Tribune.)
Hear the purring of the cats
Stately cats!
What a gorgeous aggregation of Mal
tese aristocrats!
How they pur-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r
In their ornamental cages
As you softly stroke their fur
Like a practiced flatterer
And inquire about their ages
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of feline rhyme.
To the purring from these pampered
pets that pine on Persian mats
From the cats, cats, cats, cats,
Cats, cats, cats
To the pur-r-r-r-r-r-ing of the cats!
Hear the howling of the cats
Yowling cats!
What a wealth of rage and longing
lingers in their sharps and fiats!
In the startled air of night
How they scratch and screech and
fight!
How their fiery eyeballs glare!
How thev bawl!
How they hiss and growl and swear
And hold their swelling tails in air.
And Caterwaul!
Oh. from the surrounding thus
What a gush of blasphemy, washbowls,
old shoe?, old hats.
And bed slats.
And brickbats
These cats have dodged! ?e.? the
ca ts,
That smirk and simper to your
pats!
Are they good for cateaing and des
patching Any rats, rats, rats?
Oh, rnts! rats! rats! rats!
Rats! rats! rats!
What's thpir record when it comes to
catching rats?
AN EXTREME.
ThP3 do nothing by halves in Kan
sas. As a result of a discussion grow
ing out of the enforced closing of bar
ber shops in Fort Scott an ordinance
is under discussion in the Councils or
that city which proposes to prohibit
all kinds of paid-for Sunday labor.
Even ministers of the gospel "who
preach for pay" are to be inhibited,
under penalty of $230 to $300 fine.
