Such persons are also described in the text who are vory much alarmed about the small faults of others and have no alarm about their own great transgressions, There are in every community and in every church watch-dogs who feel called upon to keep their eyes suspicions. on others and growl.

During tho siege of Paris, Dr. V). JI. Itussell, unpleasantly familiar to Americans as “Bull Run Russell,” was peting as war correspondent for the London Times, and was very much in Bismarck’s society. One evening, when Bismarck had been denouncing the ether English papers with his usual violence and pungency of phrase, Dr. Russell took occasion to oltserve, in a self-complacent way: “Well, you must admit, , Count Bismarck, that ~ I, at , ; {cast, have been very discreet in every- tiling that I have written to the Times. You have always conversed before me with the utmost frankness upon all sorts of subjects, and I have been most careful never to repeat a word of any¬ thing that you have said." Bismarck turned upon him with a look of mingled auger and contempt. “The more fool you!" he roared; “do you suppose that I ever said a word before you that I didn’t want you to print?” The Argonaut.

In looking over the files of his office the register has found several other very interesting wills, among them those of five of the Presidents—Wash¬ ington, Madison, Monroe, John Quincy Adams and Franklin Pierce. Wash¬ ington was a very rich man—one of the wealthiest in the United States— and had a large amount of real estate iu Washington, which he purchased at the time the capital was located there, and held for a rise. A hundred years later a terrible cry was raised because General Grant bought a few lots in the new part of the city, which were likely to advance In value because of the im¬ | provements that were being made by i the Shepherd Board of Public Works, j and there is no doubt that President | McKinley would be severely criticised : ; if he should engage In real-estate spe¬ culation; but It was considered proper for Wnsniugton to do so. He showed his faith In the future of the city he founded and’ desired to profit by its growth. ! John Quincy Adams was another rich j President. Charles Francis Adams : i was his executor and had the disposi¬ tion of several houses and vacant lots : In different parts , of ,,, the city, James Monroe confessed bankruptcy, ai)f j his only property ”, was a grant from Congress, . which , he enjoined __ his scti- In-law, Samuel L.

Chase, for four years Secretary of the Treasury, for five years Chief Jus¬ tice of the United States, and recog- Blzed as one of the ablest jurists of the century, left a will In his own handwriting which could not he pro¬ bated because of Its legal imperfeo- «oas.
