Motives In Egyptian Affairs.
KAISER’S POLICY STIFFEN ED
the Emperor Has Forbidden German
\Varships to Touch at English Ports,
and 116 Also “’ill Not Visit,
Great Britain This Year.
BERLIN, March 30.—The attitude of
Germany in the developments of the Egyp-
tian question has been pro-eminent in
public attention during the past week,
and the press utterances of Great Britain,
Austria and Italy have been closely
watched. ,
. Germany’s action in the matter is mis—
nonstrued in Great Britain and Austria,
according to the German neWSpapers,
which deny that her Object in supporting
Great Britain’s proposition to use the
Egyptian reserve fund for the Niie expe-
dition was-in any way to aid the,latter
country. They declare that Germany’s at-
titude was solely determined out of 'con-
cern for Italy. and add that the Austrian
statesmen apparently construed her aid
as an important precedent, as Italy’s Af-
rican reverses in nowise constituted a casu
foederis, as defined by the terms of the
dreibund. Consequently Germany is held
to similarly aid Austria in her Oriental
policy.
England Distrusted.
This view of the case, however, is flatly
repudiated by the German government,
and a German statesman who is thorough-
ly qualified to express opinions on the sub-
ject said to the press correspondent:
“Germany’s policy is not changed in
the least. In spite of recent events our
relations with England ‘remain the same.
Germany distrusts England and her am~
bitions schemes, and Germany’s support
of the prcposal to send an expedition to
Dongola in no way engages us in the fu-
ture. Russia fully understands this,
though our friendship for Italy obliges us
now to take contrary views to Russia and
lira-nee. Morever, we could not engage to
aid Austria in any ambitious move in the
orient.”
A significant sign of the times is that
German warships are forbidden to touch
at English ports, and Emperor William,
it is now said, has determined not to vis-
it England this year. On the other hand,
the friendship between Russia and Ger-
many is not impaired, as is shovvn by the
Germany immediately after the corona-
tion fetes at Moscow. They will stop at
the Russian embassy while here.
After the return of Emperor William
from the Mediterranean dig majesty will
unveil the statue of his grandfather, Wil-
liam I, erected at Frankfort-outlie-Main.
Bismarck and His Crown.
Prince. Bismarck has thanked Prince
Hohenloho for his toast of March 21, upon
the occasion for the reichstag jubilee ban-
quetuin a letter, in which he speaks of
“that kind, chivalrous oration,” and ex-
presses the hope that his (Bismarck’s)
successor will not find his office “such a
crown of thorns” ashe found it to be.
At Friedrichsruh, Prince Bismarck’s
birthday, April 1, will be celebrated in a
rather quiet manner. A torchlight pro-
cession from Hamburg will be received,
and an address will be made, but few if
any other deputations will be received,
as the prince’s physician has forbidden
any undue excitement. ,
Theimperial chancellor, Prince Hohen~
lobe, will be 77 years Old on Tuesday. He
will be serenaded by the band of the Cui-
rassiers of the guard and will receive the
congratulations of all his subordinates.
The emperor will send him aunique pres-
ent, consisting of his own portrait framed
in the antlers of stags shot by his majesty.
The socialist press has been bitterly at-
tacking the government fOr the wholesale
discharge of shipbuilders from the naval
docks at Kiel.
It is now announced that the imperial
court at Leipsic has ordered the case of
Richard F. Kneebs, the AmeriCan horse-
man, retired to the lower court. and that
51 American witnesses be summoned, and
the alleged mare Nellie Kneebs will be
brought before that court. Bail. it is add-
ed, was again oflered and refused.
The llIillionaires’ Club.
The official statistics of 1895 show that
Herr Krupp, the great gun manufacturer,
is the richest Prussian subject. He is
taxed on an income of 7,135,000'marks.
This is 'nearly half the crown donation
which the emperor gets as the king of
Prussia. Herr Krupp pays a. 285,000
marks tax. Baron Rothschild is classed
as the second richest subject, with an in.
come of 5, 848,000 marks anda tax of 233,-
600 marks. Count Hutten-Czapski, a. cap-
tain in the Fourteenth Hussars. is the
third richest Prussian subject, with an
income of 3,085,000 marks, upon which he
pays a tax of 123,400 marks. Herr Ber-
liner takes the fourth place, The three Ap-
pelners are fifth, sixth ‘and seventh. A
Breslau gentleman comes eighth, and a
Trier citizen is in the ninth place, with
2,065,000 marks for his income.
In 1894, it appears. only seven persons
had incomes over 2,000,000 marks, and
only 13 persons had incomes between
1,000,000 and 2,000,000 marks, compared
with 18 such fortunates in 1895.
Those liable to an income tax by reason
of having incomes of over 900 marks com-
prise three-tenths of the population. Only
3.57 of the population have incomes over
3,000 marks, and in the whole of Prussia
there are only 1,591 persons with incomes
of over 100,000 marks, of which number
1,284 live in towns and 307 reside in the
country.

LOQUACIUUS OLD AGE.
Does Much Talk Induze Long Life?—In-
tcresting Speculations.
In France a census of centenarians
has just been taken and the tabulation
shows 213 persons in that country who
are over 100 years of age, says the New
York \Vorld. Of this number only 06
are men, or less than, one-third. An
amusing comment on this has been
going the rounds’in Paris to the effect
that the reason for this surprising com—
parative longevity of women is their
proneness to talk and gossip at every
conceivable opportunity. Constant
chattering, it is said, leads to the active
circulation of the blood, and thus re-
news the tissues of'the body daily and
renders the frame particularly strong.
In all seriousness, however, have sev-
eral French physicians taken up this
matter, and they have come to the con-
clusion that the reason so many more
women have attained a greater strength
of life than men is because they have
passed through less turmoil and trouble
and have had a more calm and less im-
passioned existence. One case in
point is that of an old lady who diedre-
cently in the H‘aute Garrone, having
lived 150 years. She is supposed to
have been the oldest woman of modern
times, and all her life was spent peace-
fully in a hamlet in this district. ' The
closing decade of her life she was fed
0n goats’ milk and cheese. In the last
few years Of her existence her body be-
came attenuated to an extraordinary
degree and her skin came to resemble
parchment. "
The French centenarians are, as a
rule, of the lowest class of society and
extremely pOor.

VERY FRUGAL PEERS.
Members of the English Peerage Do Not
Squunder Their Wealth Necdlessly.
Thercis no one in the English peerage
who has the reputation of driving a
closer bargain and possessing a kcenei‘
eye to the inain chance than the duke of
Yestminstcr, says the Brooklyn Citi-
zen. The young duke of Bedford,‘ who
runs his grace of “Westminster very
close in the point of wealth, (listin—
guislied himself the other day in the
London. police court by the animosity
which be displayed in prosecuting the
poor itinerant vendors of fruits and veg-
etables who had attempted to dispose
of. their wares in the neighborhood of
Covent Garden market,-which belongs
to him and is one, of his principal
sources Of revenue. He claimed that
by hawking their wares on the border
line of the market they interfered with
those who rented stalls therein from
him. And now we have Lord Roberts,
the richest peer in the west of England,
and possessed of tin mines in Cornwall
which alone yield him over $250,000 a.
year, getting the best of a brother peer,
the popular earl of IIardwickc, by fore-
closing a. mortgage which had hitherto
been considered a friendly agreement.
Of course, Lord Ilobarts is within his
strict legal rights, but by his altogether
unexpected foreclosure he has managed
to {require Wimpole hall, the ancestral
inansiOn and country seat of the call of
liardwicke, as well as the large estate in
connection therewith, for one-third of
the value at which it was Officially cl;-
praised three or four years ago. '
HAS SAVED MANY LIVES.
Wonderful Record in Death Cheating
Made by a Sea Captain.
“’hich boy has saved the greatest
number of human lives from d 1'0“ hing ?
was asked of Tit—Bits by a correspon-
dent, and this was the answer:
Capt. Hans Doxrud, commander of
the Red Star steamship Switzerland,
trading between Philadelphia and Ant-
werp, is believed to hold the world’s
record in this respect, as, while quite
young. he saved the lives Of 83 persons,
rescued fromnine sinkingships. Among
the boys who lately received rewards
from the Royal Humane society for sav-
ing life was \V'. E. Irving, aged 13 years,
who, at a great risk, saved the life of a
little fellow at Aldcrmoor, near Cov-
entry, on April 11. This is the second
life saved by Irving, who was the re-
cipient of a silver medal in December
in st. Another boy, Alfred Good“ in, 13,
saved a boy of 11 in the Acton waters,
near ll'ormwood-Scrubbs; and Fred B.
Cooper, a little fellow of 11 yea rs of age,
\\ ho has only the use of one hand, suc-
ceeded, on Februaryfls last,in rescuing
another boy who had fallen through the
ice in the recreation ground which runs
by the side of the Trent. A few years
ago the Royal Humane society awarded
a silver medal to Frank Lines, eight
years of: age, who saved the life of a boy
ten years of age who fell through the
ice in the Broadwater, Brocket park,

THE ELEPHANT KNOWS. .
He Displays «Remarkable Intelligence in
His Native Wilds.‘ ‘
Much interest has been taken lately
in performing elephants._ It is certain-
ly interesting to see such huge, clumsy
animals ride bicycles or play seesaw.
with apparent enjoyment. In the wild
state elephants dislilay remarkable in-
telligence. Sir Samuel Baker, whose
delightful books Oil-Ceylon should be
read by every boy who likes tales of ad-
venture, says that in spite of the great
weight of the elephant, and the fact
that they live in countries where human
life and the lives of domestic animals
are frequently lost in marshes, no ele-
phant was ever found stuck in the mud.
Even the youngest know enough to
avoid such places. In view of the many
stories told in his books of the sagacity
of these animals, .the following from an
old paper does not seem improbable: ‘
A train of artillery going to Seringapa-
tam had to cross the shingly bed of a
river. A man who was sitting on a gun
carriage fell; in another second the
wheel would have passed over his body.
An elephant, Walking by the side of
the carrihge, saw the danger, and in-
stantly, without any order' from his
keeper, lifted the Wheel from the
ground, leaving the fallen man unin-
jured. 7 .
