BERLIN, June 15.—-Again the funeral belis are tolling and emblems of mourn- ing are fluttering in Berlin, It was shortly before 11.15 a. m. thal the words “The Kaiser 1s dead’ became whisper. ed amongst the throng of officers and Court dignitaries standing about the imperial chamber, in the terrace or in the court-yard, and, being taken up, earried with lightning speed throughout the sorrowing household. Immediately afterwards the imperial standard was lowered to half-mast, and the news then passed rapidly beyond the palace. When the supreme moment had arrived only the royal family were present, ex- cept the doctors, including Morell Mac- kenzie and Hovel. The Kalserin Victoria bad been watching all through the hour of the night, without having indeed scarcely guitted her husband’s side for the last fortnight, whilst the Crown Prince and other members of the royal family, who from time to time entered the dying Ewperor’s chamber, joined their mother shortly before the end ap- proached, Among them also was Prince Fred- erick Leopold of Prussia, son of Prince Frederick Charles, who died this day three vears ago. Another coincidence on which men dwell 1s that March 9th, the day Emperor Willlam died, was also Friday. The illustrious sufferer, for so the official accounts call the late Kaiser, with the view of laying stress on the brilliant example of patience and courage he set his people, passed away quietly without any pain, his strength having so di- minished that there was scarcely any evidence of a death struggle, Only two hours before the fatal moment the doctors issued the following bulle- tin: *“‘His Majesty, Kaiser and King, is lying in slight slumber, intersupted from time to time by evident signs of consciousness, without the slightest expression of pain; pulse and breath very weak.” The Emperor had slept very liltle during the nignt, but was not uncom- fortable. At 6.30 this morning Morell Mackenzie fed him, and afterwards he received some nounshment In the shape of cream aud whisky, but 1t was of no avail to restore the strength which sank so rapidly. The sad event was apnounced as follows in the Of cial Gazelle: : **The royal sufferer has finished his course by God’s decree. [is Majesty, Kaiser and King Frederick, our most gracious sovereign, entered into eternal rest this worning shortly after 11 o'clock, after a long period of suffering which Le has endured with astounding resolution and submission to the Divine will. The royal house and our people, twice bereaved within so short a time, deeply mourn the too early decease of our much loved sovereign,” A DISATROUS FLOOD. SEVEILAL DREAK LOORE CLOQUETTE AWAY A BUILDING YERY TTY TIN MILLION FEET FROM THE BOO) AND CARRY NUMBER ~ THE LOS HEAYY. Svrerion, Wis,, June 14. —Several million feet of logs broke loose from the boom above Cloguette yesterday and came tearing down the stream to the island, on which several hundred peo: ple live, doing great damage. The buildings carried away were as follows: The Freeman House, Everett House, Tyndall's saloon and boarding housa, Wallace's flour and feed store, McCul- lough’s saloon, Blakestone’s and Smith’s saloons, the Court House and jail, and the dwelling of George Price, Anthony Shannon, George Shaffer, M, T. McGovern. Thirty or forty other buildings are completely surrounded by water to the extent of seven or eight feet, and most of them have been aban- dened. The St. Paul and Duluth Railroad, st Fond du Lac, Is under two feet of water and the depots and other bulld- ings have been abandoned and are likely to be carried away at any time, The yards of the C, Nelson Lumber Company, at Cloquette, are under water to the depth of 10 feet and tem- porary booms have been constructed to keep the lumber from floating off. Communication between the main. land and the inundated island is main- tained by boats, but is becoming dang- erous. At the falls, near Cloquette, the scene is one of magnificent beauty. In 20 years so great a volume of water has not been known, and as it washes down over the rocks in great waves of foam it forms a picture not to be for- gotten. Great trees are thrown into the air and torn Into threads No lives have been lost as yet, but doubtless some will be, The St. Paul and Duluth Railway has abandoned the line from Duluth to Northern Pacific Junction, and is running trains over the Northern Pa- cific Railroad, via Superior, Grave fears are felt as to the safety of the St. Paul and Dulath bridge across St, Louis Bay, and a large force of men is stationed there to prevent a jam from forming. The loss to lumber- men at Cloquette will be enormous, as the logs will have to be picked up when they reach the lake by tugs, and It will be impossible {9 save them all. The loss thus far is roughly estimated at £500,000, : GENERAL SHERIDAN ANOTHER FAVORABLE DAY.

The Listener, years ago, knew a sea captain, one of that fine type of knights of the sea that has become extinct along with the American carrying trade, who had seen Napoleon at St, Helena, The old captain-—he was then a young captain—had made ineffectual attempts during a prolonged stay at the island to see the captive, but in vain, The English authorities, who with very good reasons suspected Americans of being and willing, if not prepared, to spirit Napoleon away, resolutely denied the captain any opportunity to visit Longwood, But Yankee perseverance is not easily baled, The captain in his ram- bles had discovered a point of view commanding Napoleon's favorite pro- menade, ‘There, securely ensconced with his trusty and powerful ship's glass, he marked down Napoleon, The glass was so powerful that Napoleon's every motion as he talked with an at- tendant was clearly to be discerned. Onoe Napoleon turned his face full to. ward the captain, and the face of the great man was for an instant set in the telescope as 0 minature, and the won- derful eyes looked full into those of the Yankee captain, The latter described them as beautiful hazel eyes, deep and Jatihesie, rather than penetrating. y were the eyes of the world con- aueror conauered THE PAINS OF FEAL Fadured Exquisite Torture the Timid Woman, i under her bed | to be re Lhe house afl nndet lieves round abed te see that all | Lizket-of-leave liberty to do her hari, sense of dread she ndergro lares n robbers—gsie those dark, ui which si L peer turns LU with a quick throb ane then beats a retreal wi feeling of sensation vague namel of being horror, and driven } AUG Qriven vy i 1 iinpoe mauled I CLaBs, Tnail 1, overworked, y damp sheets am suffers md » necessities o there wa het railroad hill nor ¢ scend, She thinks the and the ‘curriculum inh ders bow so much {from such voung brains and bodies, All through life it is the evil, The fortunes of wai sons here and there, and the mother frets over the possibilities of disaster as if that possible event were prover fact and chance had no side alley fo escape.

Ladies in Paris, who are considersd leaders of fashion, have given up long pointed bodices and putfed skirts in favor of the costume of the first empire, the short round bodice and narrow plain skirt. This fashion has much to recommend it for one thing it takes far less material than that of to-day, and what can be more simple and comforta~ ble than the plain skirt scarcely puffed behind, and the small a 1a Recemier bo- dice, crossed in front and finished with a broad sash gracefully tied at the back or side?
