SEIZURE OF GERMAN
STEAMERS PUTS BER?
LIN IN A FERMENT.
Berlin, Jan 6 ?The excitement
occasioned by the seizures of Ger
man mail steamers by British cruisers
increases and overtops everything
else Even the opening of the Prue
sian Diet on the comicg Tuesday is
dwarfed thereby. In spite of the
strongest current of popular Anti
British sentiment the German gov
eminent still honestly tries to con
tinoe its course of loyal neutrality,
bot anxiously awaits favorable Brit*
isb action regarding the seizures,
wbicb the government and nation
both regard as unjustified. The gov?
ernment has ascertained, without a
shadow of doubt, that the Bundes
rath was seized on strictly neutral
territory within o radios belonging,
by international law, to the Porto
g?sse oniony Thereby tbe action of
the British cruiser Msgicienne wso
olearly wrong, ao here oontended
Tbe nowi that Great Britain bos
released tbo steamer General, seized
ot Aden, is here construed ao Great
Britoio becking down In official
oirolea todoy the bope was expressed
to o representative of tbe Associated
Press tbot Great Britoiu will admit
that the is wrong ?fter detoiled ood
comprehensive proofs ore submitted
to Londc Pert of these proofs are
tbo bills o lodiog of tbe Boodesrotb,
the General ond Herzog, showing
tbot tbe German Esst African Line
wss most psrticulor to exolude all
ohoooes of tbeir vessels containing
contraband Tbe Bondesrstb is
shown to have had on board 42
passengers for Delagoa Bay, oompris
ing 12 Partugnese, of whom several
were government officials ; two form
or Au6train and one former German
ormy officer The rest were civil
tout. This line is subsidized by
Germany to the amount of 900,000
marks annually
Tbe action of the Coionial society
in further inflaming public opinion is
condemned by a large part of the
press
A fsot interesting to note is that
Chaplain Fry, and the English
Church, in Berlin ; British Ambassd

committee now call for subscriptions

Africa A concept is to be given

AN EFFECT OF LIGHTNING.
DtimaKCd a Vnlr of I^ye? That Wen?
I.nr&o nuil P.r rh t.
Through the brotherhood of Affliction
that conies from wearing glasses in
000 of their various forms :i popular
official of the llapid Transit company
told in conversation the other day of
a curious reason why he \vore prescrip?
tion helps to eyesight. ;'lt was because
1 was struck by lightning," he said. "It
was when I was in my teens. I sat
between an open window and an open
door and there was a Hash. The last
1 can remember is a sense of having an
envelope? of light nrouinl me. I was
picked up insensible and those who
first saw mo say that smoke issued
. from my mouth and nose. All thought
I was dead, but I slowly recovered and
soon seemed to be as well as before the
heavenly visitation.
"The serious effects of the shock,
however, developed in my eyes Their
largeness und brilliancy had been often
commended on by my friends, but
these more or less desirable features
had been destroyed by the electric
fluid. The pupils and the irises con?
tracted and I found a groat difficulty
in my vision An expert oculist exam?
ined the eyes and gave some scientific
name to the difficulty. That's another
story. I only know that I can see and
am glad to be alive.
"One effect remains, however, that is
rather curious. Most people who have
been struck by lightning are fearful of
being struck again. Not so with me.
I'm not nervous even in the height of
an electrical storm, but I confess I'm
not anxious to sit in a room at such a
time where there are two openings into
the disturbance. That would be invit?
ing destruction."?Brooklyn Eagle.
A Study In Hose.
The girl behind the counter said to
the young man who appeared as though
he knew just what he wanted to buy,
"What can I do for.you?"
"I was going to buy a nice pair of
itockingl for a woman. This is the
right departmentV"
"Yes. What material and what
BizeV
"I thought I might leave that to you,
as we are sort of related iu our call?
in.*?."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, I'm a fireman?the man with
the hose, don't you see? As the head
of this department you're the woman
with the hose. I haven't the slightest
idea of what I want or what it should
be or what it should cost."
i "For your wife?"
"No; I hoe my own row."
"So do I," she laughed, "and as a
hosier."
"They're for my sister. And that's
all I know About the whole thing. tSIie's
smaller than I am, but larger than
you."
"I take eights."
"Then I should think she'd take six
teens."
He laughed to hear her laugh, and a
whole row of customers watted.
"It's the l>est hose attachment you
ever made." he thought to himself, and
so it proved, for the cards are out and
they are furnishing a regular birdcage

A BlOfleot Hero.
Not loner ago a French chronl<iueur>?
Montniiiail of the Paris iJaulois--en?
countered iu a little village of Jho south
of France a gardener who wore, pin
ued on his clean Sunday blor.se, the
ribbon of tbe Legion of Honor. Nat?
urally, the newspaper man desired to
know how he got it. The gardener,
who, like many of his trade* seemed to
be a silent man, was averse to meeting
an old and wearisome demand, but
finally he began:
"Oh, I don't know how I did get It!
I was at Bateilles with the rest of the
battery. All the officers were killed,
then down went ull the noncommis?
sioned officers. Rang! bang! bang! By
and by all the soldiers were down but
me. I had tired the last shot and uat
urally was doing what I could to stand
off the Bavarians.
"Well, a general came, and says he,
*WThere's your officers?'
M 'All down,' says I.
"'Where's your gunners?' says he,
" 'All down but me,' says I.
"'And you've been fighting here all
alone?' says he.
" 'I couldn't let 'em come and get the
guns, could I?' I says. And then he up
and put this ribbon on me. probably
because there was nobody else there to
put it on."
Too IIaril Tor Hi 111.
A Frenchman at a certain hotel the
other evening, who was boasting that
he had thoroughly mastered the Eng?
lish language, was asked to write the
following dictation:
"As Hugh Hughes was hewing a
Yule log from a yew tree, a man. dress?
ed in clot lies of a dark hue. came up to
Hugh and said. 'Have you seen my
ewes?' if you will wait until I hew
this I will go anywhere In Europe with
you to look for your ewes.' "
Iniprenned.
"Isn't it awe inspiring." said the
youth with tendencies toward the sub
lime, "to think of this earth rushing
forward on its track, superior to all
human direction and beyond all re
strnlnt V"
"Yes." answered the fair girl softly
after a long |tause. "It makes me
think of my new automobile."?Wash?

How IIa <?e,t Exorcise.
Lord Palme stoti used tt clever ex?
pedient for coercing himself into a
little regular daily exercise.
It was Ills custom when in govern?
ment positions to have his Inkstand
placed open a table several yards away
from the desk at which lie worked, so
that he had to walk several puces for
encli dip of Ink.
He attributed his maintenance of
sturdy health and jaunty manner un?
der the trying conditions of office rou?
tine to this simple practice, as also his
habit of performing all work standing.
