Tho correspondent of the Associated

"Thoro ca;inot bo a question of the exe

emperor and empress virtually prisoners.
The court is unable to go to Pckln oven

Is not feasible. Tho allies will bo unabli,
to carry out such a measure. However,
ven If It wcro possible, the provinces
would rlso In a body for tho court's de

Impotence to deal properly with tho ln

It la certain tho Chinese troubles cannot

Baron von Wagcnhell's assertion In tho

by tho press. Tho Cologno Volka Zoltung
ays editorially that .It Is notorious that
his majesty docs not road the papers rep
resenting the various parties, but only
dally extracts mado by personal employes.
"Thus," tho paper adds, "depending en
tirely upon tho personal prejudlcts of his
entourage, he sees only such clippings as
his entourage wnnts and Is necessarily
letting wrong Impressions."
The Vollts Zcltung Btrongly admonishes
tho einporor hereafter to dovoto half nn

leading organs of each party, saying that
then he muat really "feel tho pulse of tho

Tho disproportionately largo share which

which gathered about the hotel was de'
cidedly small compared with tho size of

they were disappointed. Tho first Intima

driven Into nn open parallelogram of

topics has been engaging the attention of
Gteat Britain this week, tho news kuleldo
scopo opening with Mr. Kruger's doings und
bnlngb. These aro still retulled fully and
seem to hold tho audience. Rut a strong
rlv.il cropped up when tho public learned
that tho so-cnllod backbone of Great
Britain, namely, beer, was permeated with
arsenic. Tho poisoning epidemic at Man
chester which has resulted therefrom bent
a Bhock through tho nation. Without al
lowing time for nny recovery from this
blow, dcuornl Dowet camo out of a period
of seclusion and scored a victory at Dewets
dorp that has set tho people wondering
whether tho British army is ot any good at
all. Tbo only redeeming fcaturo ot tho
week, from tho British point of vlow, Is
tho return ot tho Royal Canadian regtmeut
from South Africa, which affords tho edi
torial writers a glorious opportunity for di
lating on tho solidity and splendor of tho
British empire. As tho Canadians romaln
hero, Mr. Kruger, Oeneral Dowet, tho ovll
effects of beer and other adverse features
ara llkoly to bo quickly forgotten, bo ac

versos. How truly pathottc was tho meeting ot

astonishing, therefore, thnt when Colonel
Otter replied It was in trembling tones, and
not ono of the men whom ho led into nearly
fifty engagements felt ashamrd of tho griz
zled colonel becnuso his celc wns we',
with tears. Although so deeply affected
tho queen appeared to bo enjoying her
usual health.
'Why the Canadian Cnme Home.
Tho reason why only thrco companies
of tho Cnnndlans camo back to England is
that shortly beforo tho expiration of tho
year tor which tho Canadians had volun
teered Colonel Otter communicated with
Lord Roberts, notifying him of the fact.
Tho commander-in-chief said ho would
much like the regiment to remain longer
and asked Colonel Otter to Round tho men.
The colonel nsked tho officers, who, without
ccnsultlng tho men, enthusiastically guar
anteed their companies would remain.
, Wbcn tho men heard this they tool; urn-
they wished to return at thu stipulated
time. Lord Roberts wrote n letter, prac
tically begging them to Btay a llttlo longer,
but thn regiment, being split In various
parts of tho country nnd tho decision hav
ing been made, they voted to go direct to
Canada, with tho exception of Companies
A nnd B. Company I, being composed of
regulars, wns obliged to remain, and Com
panies A and B wcro Btntloned at head
quarters. As a reward for staying in South
Africa Lord Roberts enabled Companies A,
B and I to pnrtnko In the Protorla celo
brntlon3 nnd then sent thorn home by way
of England only a month later than their
comrades. Tho disintegration of tho regi
ment at auch a period caused tho keenest
regrets and heartburnings.
Tho bf'nr poisoning epidemic nt Man

of England, hns now spread to London.

BERLIN. Dec. 1. (New Yoik World Ca
blegram Special Telegram.) Bismarck's
lotteis to his llnnceo and to his wife. Just
published In Stuttgart, p.esent his char
acter mainly In a sentimental aspect,
w'dely dllfercnt from that which appeared
to tho world. When considering whether
he would Hilopt a state cr nn agricultural
career Bismarck wrotn to his wife: "It
Is a fact that in my early years at homo
I ulwuys questioned whether or not it
was a pleasuro to be a scnant of tho
Etatc, an official or even a minister; that
It always seemed to mo to bo as respectnblo
a calling lo grow corn ns to write admin
istrative orders! that my ambition was al
ways In tho direction of not obeying rather
than of commanding.
"A Prussian ofllclal resembles a player
In an orchestra. Whether he playB first
violin or tho triangle, ho must play his
part without controlling or Influencing tho
whole, Just ns It la set beforo him, aud
without considering whothcr It Is bad or
good. I, however, will play good music
or none."
When distressed by nthclsttcnl doubts
ho wrote to his ilanceo In 1SI7: "Two mat
ters mentioned In your letters exercised a
quieting Influenco first, that I havo given
you no pain by my lettcri; secondly, tnat
you express clearly and decidedly tolcr
anco nnd pntlcnce with my doubtful nnd
weak faith; furthor, that you still lovo
me, even should Qod lead our hearts In
different directions.
"A dlvergcnco of views on these points,
In my opinion, will bo no hindrance to nn
earthly connection, as long as none of tho
parties to tho union Is a mocker or scoffer."
In n Sentimental Stood.
In a letter written in 1S19 ho presents
hlmBcl'f aB a dreamer: "My darling, I alt
hero In my corner room, two stories high,
nnd look up at thu heavcus, full of pure
little pluk sheep. Ono aces the sky along
Tr.vtcn straeno, over Hie tops of the trees
In Prlnco Carl's garden. It is all golden
and cloudless, the ulr soft at'd 'mild. I
thought of you and Venice nnd of whnt
I would write to you today. News was re
ceived that Vcnlco hnd yielded uncondi
tionally, bo we can travel thither again
and seo onco more tho long white greua
dlcrs. "I blamo myBclf that I don't wrlto to your
pnrents direct, but It always looks aa
though I would lutcrfero with ono ot your
prerogatives.
"Lord gunrd you. Yesterday, while read
ing the twenty-eighth psalm, I thought
of you and prayed Ho would keep Ilia hand
over you and protect you In all that may
happen.
"Ooodby, my nngel."
A letter written In 1R50 gives an Idylllo
picture of n Thurlnglnn hunt: "It lookn
ub though summer wan really coming. On
my return from a wearying walk I ro-
.oi,,,,.! sec .!l0 ton.ler green leaves and
llcnr t)l0 cucit0, ma volco told ino wo
would live together auothor eleven yeara
nnd It la to ho hoped longer.
"Tho hunting expedition wns peculiar und
splendid. The baro plno fcrc-sts on tho
road wero as high as tho heavens. On tho
other bldo with steep valleys, with bushel
and oaks cloaking the aides. At night I had
innny trout' and wuak beer.
"At 3 o'clock In tho morning It was clear.
The rushes took tho placo of owls und tho
chorun of tho birds was dcafonlng an tho
sun rose, tho doves cooing n gentlo ba3s."
'Come Into the (iurdcu."
Hero Is another picture of nnturo In the
autumn of 1S50: "Toduy we have oxqulrlto
weather sunehlne, even warmth, In tho
gnrdou. Thoro aro Htlll plenty ot leaves.
Tho cherry treca aro tomnwhat red, tho
limes yellow und numeroii. oung elms In
r.hrubbory aro a pale yellow. Tho oaka aro
still grenu und tho acnclus Just us though
It wcro Btlll Juno perfect nnd dark green.
"On tho whole, tho green tono is ctlll
predominant, oven though under foot In
sounds ot autumn."
In July, ISM, ho sends a Btrlkln;; example
of Introspection: "In tho Inat fourteen
yearn what chani;os In my outlook ou tho
world. How Is It that I liao always con
sidered tho outlcok of tho mnmont n" th
right ono? How much now appears small
that fourteen years ago looked great? How
much now worthy that I then mocked at
and, during tho noxt fourteen years, how
many leaves will grow verdant In our Inner
man, will glvo shadow, will riiBtlo In tho
wlnJ. then wither nnd become worthless
' I onnnot roncolvo how a man who thinks
nbout htmEolf at all and refuses to know
anything of God e'jin do anything but sup
port a llfo filled with contempt for himself
aud weariness.
"I don't know how I boro this In former
years. Wero I now to llvo nn I onco lived
without God, without you and tho children
I don't know whether I would not get rid
of this llfo Just bb I put off ,i dirty shirt.
"Yet tho majority of my ncqualntunces aro
llko this nnd live."
Ten to Cool Ills Illood,
Wrltlni; from Buda Pest In 1852, Bis
mnrck says: "I shall now ullay my fu
vcred blood with a cup of tea; then toon

In a letter written In 1851 ho gives n
vivid pen plcturo of Russia nnd Moscow
