two seats on his left, while Mr. Tenney
and the viceroy’s son sat on his right.
For almost a minute not a word was
laid on either side. The Viceroy had fixed
his gaze intently upon us, and, like a
good general, perhaps, was taking a thor-
ough survey of the field before he opened
up the caniionadeof questions that was to
follow. We in turn were just as busily
engaged in taking a mental sketch of his
most prominent physical characteristics.
Hie face was distinctly oval, tapering
from a very broad forehead to a sharp
pointed chin, half obscured by his thin
gray “goatee.” The crown of his head
was shown in the usual ’l‘sing fashion,
leaving a tuft of hair for a queue, which
in the viceroy’s case was short and very
thin. llis dry, sallow skin showed signs
of wrinkling; a thick fold liiy under each
eye, and at each end of his upper lip.
There were no prominent cheek-bones or
almond-shaped eyes. which one so dis-

BISMARleMlN LOVE.
THE GREAT CHANCELLOR'S ViGOR-
OUS WOOING A SUCCESS.
llerr Funk-mel- Feared the Young Man
Was Pickle, But the Girl Was on Ilia
Side, and Together They Won. A
Dramatic Love Affair.
The biography of Prince Bismarck tells
an interesting story of his wooing of
Fraulein Puttkamvr, who became his
wife. in the year lo“. the historian says
while at the marriage of a friend, he met
the only danghter of the rich Puttknlner
family, and he wrote his sister the most
enthusiastic accounts of the young lady.
He declared that she was the one woman
on this earth that met all the require-
meats; he said his case was really hopeless
and unless he could make an alliance
with her his life would be a total failure.
He concludes his plaint with these
words:
“But she does not pay the slightest at—
tention to me, and it required genuine di~
ploinacy for me to get her to invite me to
call at her home. I do not understand
her; she does not seem to care whether
she sees me or not."
His sister had probably heard this de-
scription of things so often that she evi‘
dcntly did not attach much importance
to it, and so she replied in a semi-joking
atrain warning him not to lose his heart
irrevocably without giving the matter
very serious thought.
But Bisnmrch was more dwplysmitr
ten than his sister suppom-d. lie was
genuinely in love, and he made no air
tempt to conceal the fact. ’i‘his uncer-
tainty continued for two years before
Bismarck had ihe'sutishictiou of being
able to congratulate himself upon any
signs of encouragement, and the suspic-
ion is created that the lady ililli learned
of hier udmirer's fickle nature and resolv-
ed that if he wanted her her world have
to show that ho was in earnest by a good
long probationary period. A! the end of
this period we find him if‘lli‘t'lllilg in the

her wililit‘ family, still madly in love and
resolved on bringing matters to a crisis.
One tiny he walked into the presence of
the family and without illlu nsked the
hand of till: daughter in marriage.
But the father and mother of the dam-
ael were not so ready. They did not care
to flcquit‘sce quickly, nor did they show
any disposition to make lllsinnrck their
enemy by refusing absolutely: Mi they
adopted the course of giving llll evasive
answer and delayed any fll‘illillP reply un-
til they could think it over. As it matter
of fact, us it afterward transpired, llrrr

ONE LESSON OF THE SEA FIGHT.
The Importance of Naval Dock Yards.
Idea From Germany.
One valuable lesson which officials of
the Navy Department think has been
taught by the great imvnl engagement
between the Japanese and Chinese fleet at
the mouth of the Ynlu iiivur is the abso-
lute uecrssily of nmiutnininu the navy
yards, repair shops, and stoi-vrooma in
readiness for iustunt service. According
to the cable reports, both of the iii-eta eu-
gugcd at Ynln sustained grout damage.
True, the Chinese lost mnuy Vessels on~
tircly, but they still had a formidable
force afloat, while scarcely n Vessel of the
Japanese flu-t escaped without m-rioufl
damage, mainly from the iiinrdi-rnus fire
of the machine guns. At the conclusion
of the fight ouch side withdrew in their
nearest respective dock yards for re-
pairs.

ugcinont of these dockynrds wry much
