Never in the history of lnefllotno has

CREDULITY OF GREAT
MINDS
Superstition by No Menus ('onlined
to the Ignorant.
IJ uited Service.
It is a mistake to imagine that
* superstition is a weakness confined
to Heamen or people of
feeble and uncultured minds.
Men possodsing the strongest intellects
have been swayed by almost
childish credulity with
repard to the supernatural. The
great Napoleon wan a firm believer
in presentiments. Once,when
he wan anxiously awaiting news
from hgypt, he hoard that a Nilel

crew had been put to death. This
boat bore ttie name of I/Itahe.
Napoleon was much concerned
when lie heard thu hist piece of!
news, lie looked upon it as an I
omen thai his hopes of anncxinpl
Italy to France were to Ue shatt
ei od. Nothing would induce
bin.' to believe the contrary. "M\

he said ; "all is ruined ; 1 am sitr- '

gagement that the sacred chickens
would not eat, said: "Let
them drink, then," and ordered
them thrown overboard, after
which he attacked the Carthaginian
fleet and got a thrashing.
The astute Bismark was superstitious,
the number 13 haying a
very deep ineuuiug to him. lie
would never sit dowu to table
when he made the thirteenth.
Count Bismark Bohleu states that
one day in 1870 at Kheims, when
the chancellor gave a dinner, one
of the invitations had to be
countermanded, because otherwise
there would have been 13 at

envoy, arrived at the German
headquarters at Versailles on
Friday, Oct. 1, but Bismarck
would not see him till the next
day, saying he would never dc
anything of importance on Friday,
much less on a Friday the
date of which coincided with the
anniversary of Horchkirk, Jena
and AuerBtadt. He wan talking
one day of a defeat the German?
had experienced in the course of
the campaign of 1870. "I beg to
observe, gentlemen," be said,
"that that happened on Friday."
Bismarck did not believe in a
lucky or unlucky day but he believed
that his life wsb seriously
influenced by a mystic number.
The prosaic Dr. Johnes always
counted his steps before entering
any place, so as to arrange that
his right foot should always precede
his left; or, again, touched
every post which he palled along
a certain route, fearing that if
he missed one some misfortune
would befall him.
Lord Woleseley writes:
not only believe in many superstitious,
but 1 hug them with
the warmest affection. They link
me, if not with a spiritual world
of which I know nothing, at
least with a glorious and artistic
and picturesque past of which
oistory has told me much. I
believe in ghosts and in amulets.
I have worn out the rims of several
hats sHce I liavo been in Dublin
inrough my salutations of single
magpies.That mystic bird abounds
in Ireland ; and 1 would not on
any account walk under a ladder,
etc. In fact, I am prone to adopt
any superstition I am told ot
which others believe in."

Millionaire Butler Convicted of
Bribery.
Columbia, Mo., Nov. 14.?Col.
Ed Butler, millionaire and politician
of St. Louis, on trial
charged with attempting to bribe
Dr. Chapman of the St. Louis
board of health in order to influence
his voice on the endorRemeut
of a garbage contract with the
city, has been found guilty by
the jury which fixed the punishment
at three years in the penitentiary.
The verdict, found
last night, was announced today.
Col. Butler and his wife and
his sons, Congessman James J.,
and KwardJ.,and their wives were
in the court room when the verdict
was received.
All eyes were turned toward
Butler. A defiant glance came
to his face, his features subsided
into the expression of half disgust
which he wore while listening to
the testimony and arguments.
A motiou for a new trial was
overruled.
When asked by Judge Ilockady
if he had any reason to ofTer
why sentence should not be passed
on him, Edward Butler said:
*'1 have nothing to say, your
honor, further than that 1 am not
guilty of the charge preferred
against mo."
"The jury has passed on that
question, Mr. Butler," was Judge
Hockady'a reply. "In accordance
with the verdict I sentence you
to imprisonment in the State
penitentiary for a term of three
years."
The tiling of an appeal to the
State supreme court followed.
Judge llockudy fixed Butler's
bond at $10,000, which was
signed by a number of prominent
citizens of Columbia.
