RUSSIA'S GREAT MINISTER.
Something About tlio I'lnluudcr and Ills
Great Work.
No man has had more to do with
shaping the policy of Russia in Import
ant matters than Nicholas Carlovltch
de Glers. " The Finlnnder," who has
Just resigned as minister of foreign af
fulrs. Suave and apparently very
yielding, he gained a great Influence
over his Imperial master, the czar, and
was able to guide him in nil matters of
foreign policy. As a result he became a
power not only in Russia, but In the
world of nations. He is a diplomat by
nature and education, none the less
powerful In that he made no theatrical
exhibition of the power he exercised.
He was really Becond only to the czar,
but his victories were of peace rather
than of war. He was born May 21
1820, und was the son of a colonel who
came from a great Swedish family
which Bettled in Finland ages before
the Ruslsnas conquered It. He was
educated In the Imperial lyceum, at
Zarskoge-Seloe, and when 18 years old
entered the Asiatic department of the
ministry of foreign affairs. In 1S4S he
was sent as a diplomatic agent to the
headquarters of General Lueders, who
was commander-in-chief during the
Hungarian campaign, to help Russia
get her grip on the Danubian provinces.
After that he went to Constantinople
as first secretary of the Russian em
bassy, and there he kept close watch on
the events of the Crimean war. Then
his hand appeared In Moldavia and
Wallachla. In 185S he went to Egypt
as consul general. Then he nppeared
again in the Danube principalities.
Everywhere he made history, almost
Imperceptlbllity, without trumpet or
sword, except, perhaps, as Incidental
and minor aids. He went to Teheran
as Russian minister In 1803, and suc
ceeded In breaking England's Influence.
He virtually won Asia for the czar, and
then was sent to Berne, and afterward
to Stockholm. He became chief assist
ant to Prince Gortschakof, minister of
foreign affairs, In 1875, whose favorite
niece, the Princess Kantakuzene, he
married. He also reorganized the whole
diplomatic service of Russia before
Alexander III. was assassinated. Alex
ander III. sent De Glers to all foreign
courts to bear the famous friendly mes
sage on the programme to be adopted
and then came the great conference
between Alexandr III. and Emperor
William I. at Dantzlc, Sept. 9, 18S1, at
which De Glers and Bismarck renewed
the compact which had existed between
the late czar and the German emperor.
In 1882 DeGlers became minister of
foreign affairs and since that time he
has been one of the moKt powerful men
In Europe.
A Just and Tms Statement.
Auburn, N. Y., Mar. 25. 1894.
My father, J. S. Mills, of Shortsvllle, X
Y., was thrown from a wagon thirteen
years ngo and had his hip dislocated. A
short time after, rheumatism set In, and
It Is only with tho aid of two canes that he
has been able to walk since. Tho puln
was terrible and It was only by the use of
hot application that he could obtain any
rest at night. I sent him a box of Dr.
Potter's Rheumatic Pills and after taking
them, ho is able to walk without his
canes and can carry a pall of water In
each hand from the well to the stable,
The pain has all left him and last week he
drove to see me, a distance of forty miles,
He also had what the doctors pronounced
a cancer on his face, which hnd been re
moved, leaving a hard lump. Tho pain In
that was unbearable, but since taking the
pills the pain hus all left that, too, and he
feels as well as ever. I regard his cure as
miraculous as he Is seventy-five years old.
Anyone may learn the truth of this state
ment by either calling or writing. C. E,
Mills, 75 Fulton street.
Dr. Potter's Rheumatic Pills are a rad-
icul cure for rheumatism, Inflammatory

TWO OF A KIND.
Grim Humor, but Not Too Grim to Smllo
Over.
An did man who believed that "what
was to be would be," lived in the west
and was one day going out several
miles through a region Infested by very
savage Indians. He always took his
gun with him, but this time found that
one of the family had it out. As he
would not go out without It, some of
his friends tantalized him by saying
there was no danger' of the Indians;
that he would not die until his time
came, anyhow. "Yes, said the old
fellow; "but suppose I waB to meet an
Indian, and his time had come; It
wouldn't do, nohow, not to have my
gun." ,
He Didn't Mind the Crook.
At the siege of Petersburg, a young
Confederate lieutenant, who was a
great fnvorlte with the girls, was badly
wounded In the left arm. Several of
the surgeons declared it would be nec
essary tn amputate the limb, but It
was llnnlly decided that by removing a
section of the bone the arm might be
saved. "But, said one of the surgeons,
It will be a bad job, and when heuled
the arm will remain crooked." "Never
mind the crook," replied the lieutenant
"set it for hugging and go ahead."
ELOQUENT DILL GIIJSON.
Tho Crowd Didn't Go Away Who t I'i
gan Ills Speech.
The late General Gibson, of Tiffin, O.,
who was burled last week, was called,
"The Old Man. 'Kloquont, of OJilo,
"Gossip," of the Harrisburg Telegraph,
says of him .that during the war, In the
second Lincoln campaign for president,
he was billed to make a speech in liar
rlsburg at a Republican meeting. There
was also another Bpeaker, a man of
national fame, who monopolized the
audience for two hours and thinned
thorn out before Gibson, who always
dressed plainly and was very modest,
had a chance to speak. As the first
speaker ceased the crowd began to
leave the court house. Gibson, who
had been introduced, called to them In
his magnificent voice: "Don't go, gen
tlemen; hold on a while longer, I have
something to tell you."
Tho crowd stopped In the aisles and
listened. And then Gibson began one
of his splendid, Impassioned oratorical
efforts that wrought them to a frenzy,
The audience sat down, the news spread
that a grent speech was being mude,
and those outside flocked inside to re
main and listen for two hours to one of
the greatest speeches ever made in Har
rlsburg. And when he had ceased,
there were hundreds tip begging him to
go on.
GOOD STORY OF INGALLS.
Even Newsboy Was Abashed by Uls Ex
' treme Thinness.
From the Minneapolis Tribune.
Senator Ingall's meager endowment
of flesh has been the occasion of a good
many stories, one of the best of. which
was related the other night by inother
Kansas man at the West. I
"You know how lean Ingalls Is," he
said. "Well, down In Atohlson there Is
a dootor who la a great friend of the
senator. -This doctor has been greatly
annoyed by a newsboy who would come
Into Ills office very unceremoniously
and pester him, trying to sell papers,
"One day, when Ingalls was ia the
office, the boy was heard coming up
stairs, and the doctor decided to put up
a Job on him. He rushed out an articu
lated skeleton, placed It In a chair by
the desk, and then the two men with
drew to a back room.
'"In rushed the boy, and without no
ticing what was at the desk came di
rectly up, to the skeleton. When he
looked up and saw It grinning at him
he was nearly scared into convulsions,
and bolted for the door, yelling. The
joke tickled tho doctor, but Ingall's
conscience prickled him, and going to
the window he looked out at the boy
who was standing below crying.
' 'Come up stairs, my boy,' he said;
' I'll buy one of your papers.'
"But the newsle began to yell harder
than ever, and between his sobs blub
bered out:
" 'You can't fool me If you have put
your clothes on!"

mcnt by Irreverent Brewers.
From the Boston Herald.

on Mr. Gladstone's recent indorsement

are unfortunately accustomed to take
Intoxicating drinks and have been
brought up to believe In their necessity
and utility. And now the wicked organs
of the brewing and liquor Interests are
quoting and circulating the remark
everywhere, with the not unnatural
comment that Gladstone at the age of
84 is as vigorous and hale as any young
man.
