b J. CATWOOD & SON, Marlboro, N. Nr, 
Prof. Leopold von Ranke, the celebra¬ 
ted historian, died at Berlin, last Saturday, 
May 23, aged 91. 
It is reported ihnfc the betrothal of Princess 
Louise, eldest daughter of the Prince of Wales, 
to Prince Oscar, son of the King of Sweden, 
will lx* soon officially declared. 
David Davis is slowly recovering from his 
illness, although he is still a great sufferer 
from the tremendous carbuncle on his left 
side. His physicians now say he will recover. 
Oicn. F. E. Spinner, ex-Treasurer of the 
United States, is ill in his tent on the beach 
near Jacksonville, Fla., where he has been 
camping out; threatened with pneumonia at 
the age of 85. 
Colonel Tom Ochiltree, the red-headed 
shrewd, Texas blatherskite, thinks Texas 
ought to erect a monument to Jay Gould for 
developing the railway system in the South¬ 
west. 
Congressman Davenport, of New York, 
one of the r ichest bachelors in the House and 
the late Republican candidate for Governor 
against Governor Hill, is to bo married in a 
short time. 
Count Herbert von Bismarck’s elevation 
to t he dignity of Foreign Secretary will net 
him a snug little salary of 50,000 marks ($12,- 
500), only 4,000 ($1,000) marks less than his 
father’s official income. 
Johann Strauss, the composer, frankly 
declares that he embraced Protestantism be¬ 
cause the Catholic canons forbade his marry¬ 
ing a third time while his divorced wives are 
living, as he desired, and as Austrian law is 
similarly severe, he has l’or the same reason 
been naturalized as a German citizen. 
Loud Wolselev, who has Iteon talking of 
throwing up his commission ami joining the 
threatened insurrection in ULster, lias no part 
or lot with Ulstermen. His braueh of the 
Wolseley family has been settled in County 
Carlow ever since, just after Boyue Water, it 
broke away from the pareut stock in Stafford¬ 
shire. 
•‘Uncle” Phil. Armour is believed to be 
the heaviest loser by the receut great decline 
iu wheat. He began to bull the market at 
97 or thereabouts, and dropped his load at 60 
or below. His loss is i u^nt seven ttgures by 
some of the big operators, who think he 
dropped about as much as he made last year 
in speculating in St. Paul and Northwestern 
R. R. stock. 
It was $21,500, cash, not $25,000, the Presi¬ 
dent paid for “Rosedale,” about two miles 
from Washington. Deed of transfer recorded 
Thursday. The place “commands oue of the 
prettiest views in the neighborhood of Wash¬ 
ington.” Known as “Pretty Prospect” as loug 
ago as 1704; Contains 28 acres. After some 
repair's to the homestead the President will 
oceupy it—during the Summer at least—and 
be at the White House only to transact busi¬ 
ness. 
Gen. Durbin Ward, Democrat, was ap¬ 
pointed one of the trustees of the Ohio Sol¬ 
diers’ Home the other day by Republican 
Governor Foraker, as a mark of high appre¬ 
ciation of lus excellence as a citizen and a 
soldier. He died a few days later, on Satur¬ 
day, May 22. Born in Kentucky February 11, 
1S19; moved to Irid. in 1828; studied law; 
joined the volunteers at the very outbreak of 
the war, and distinguished himself greatly in a 
number of buttles, especially at Uhieamauga, 
where he was wounded. Made Brev. Briga¬ 
dier-General for services there. 
Miss Folsom aud her mother, or rather 
Mis. Folsom and her daughter, arrived here 
at 9.80 Thursday night on the Red Star 
steamer Noordlnud from Antwerp. Col. Dan. 
Lament, the President’s private secretary and 
chum, met tiro party on the revenue cutter 
Chandler, and brought the mother, daughter 
and uncle, with lots of baggage, to this city, 
where he and Miss Rose Cleveland had en¬ 
gaged rooms for them iu u fashionable up¬ 
town boarding house. Frankie's grandfather 
died after they hud embarked, so they knew 
nothing of it. The President will bo here to¬ 
morrow evening to attend Decoration Day, 
Monday. He will slay at. Sec. Whitney’s, 
close to the Folsom boarding-house. 
Monday the body of Dr. Dio Lewis, who 
died hero the previous Friday, was quietly 
cremated, according to his directions. Though 
enthusiastic to ttie verge of crankiness in some 
tilings, no doubt lie did much good, especially 
iu causing more attention to the physical 
development of girls. Born iu Auburn, 
N. Y., in 1828; began medical practice there 
iu 1845; practiced in Buffalo from 1847 to 
1852, having Income a homoeopath. Soon t>e- 
camo a fix* to all schools of medicine, aud 
began lecturing on hygiene, aud devised a 
uevv system of gymnastics. Settled in Boston 
iu 1 Still. Removed to New York iu 1888, 
Ladies who suffer, as only themselves 
know, are now beginning to know that a con¬ 
gested condition of the system, if not removed 
causes the chronic complaints from which 
they so much suffer; this congestion occurs 
most frequently iu the kidneys, liver and 
other abdominal organs, and it can readily be 
removed by that wonderful preparation, 
Warner’s safe cure.
