A STRENUOUS REMEDY. Row m mat Trie tbr C a Blkoloaa Diplomat. The story had reference to a former senator of the United States who was sent to Russia as minister. There were various evidences In the archives of the legation that sobriety was not this gentleman's especial virtue and among them very many copies of notes In which the minister, through the secre tary of legation, excused himself from keeping engagements at the foreign efflee on the ground of "sudden indispo sition." Mr. Prince told me that one day this minister's valet, who was an Irish man, came to the consulate and paid: "Oi'll not stay with his igsilllncy anny longer. Oi've done wid him." "What's the trouble now?" said Mr. Prince. "Well," said the man, "this morning 01 thought it was toime to get his igsillincy out of bed, for he bad been drunk about a week and in bed most of the tolme, and so Oi went to him and says gentle-lolke, 'Would your igsillincy have a cup of coffee? when he rose up and shtmck me in the face.

Then he came to speak of the battle of Koniggratz and specially of that "anxious moment" in it before the arrival of the crown prince in the rear of the Austrlans, when some Prussian attacks had failed and there wVre signs of disorder among the repulsed treepa. "It was an anxious moment, said Bismarck, "a moment on the decision of which the fate ot the empire depended. I confess I felt not a little nervous. I looked at MoltVe, 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. I rode up to him and asked him whether I might offer him a cigar, since I noticed he was not smoking. Ht replied that Le would be glad If I had one to spare. I presented to him my open case. In which there were only two cigars, one a very good Havana and the other of rather poor quality. Moltke looked at them and even handled them with great attention in order to ascertain their relative value and then with slow deliberation chose the Havana. 'Very good,' he said composedly. This reassured me very much. I thought tf Moltke can bestow so much time and attention upon the choice between two cigars things cannot be very bad. Indeed, a few minutes later we beard the crown prince's guns, we observed unsteady and confused movements on the Austrian positions, and the battle was won." Carl Schun In McCtore's. WON THE VERDICT. The Jury Did Its Beet te Make Geed Uncle Sam's Word. General Tom Edgar, the first white child born on Galveston Island (his birthday was in June. 1S37), once narrated his experience aa a juror la the case of a negro oa trial for stealing a mule. It was In 1863. while United States soldiers were still In charge at Galveston. The negro pleaded not guilty, but the testimony was pretty clear against him. His lawyer. Ignoring the testimony, based his defense upon the assertion that the negro could not pv6slb!y be guilty. "Is it not a fact," be said, -that the federal government promised to every freed man two moles and sixty acres of land? No m.i can deny it, because) It Is a fact.
