ANARCHY IN TURKEY.
The Terrible State of Affairs
the Sultan's Bealm.
In
Innocent and Defenseless Armenians Are
Being slaughtered Like Sheep
A Massacre of Chris
tians. At no time In the history of Turkey
has the situation been bo serious as it
is now. Armenians and Moslems seem
to be about equally desperate, and both
to have lost all hope of any succor from
the powers of Europe on the one hahd
or their own' government on the other!.
The sultan is shut tip in his palacei,
afraid of his life, for he is cursed by
Turks as much as by the Arabs or Chrisj-
tians. The grand vizier, Kiamil Pasha;
from whose ability and honesty1 much
was expected, found the burden of a
government which could neither com
mand nor purchase the obedience of its
officials or the loyalty of its troops too
heavy for his advancing years. ., He rej
signed, and has been succeeded by
ministry of very respectable character
and ability, but utterly inadequate to
the crisis. The heads of the Christian
communit ies are in their turn practical
ly prisoners within their palaces.
Throughout the country there is al-j
ready anarchy. The' sturdy m6un
taineers of the Taurus, who only within!
a quarter of a century have acknowl-i
edged even a nominal allegiance to the
sultan, are in arms, and the' city of
Marash is in terror over the strife be
tween these men of Zeltoon and the
equally indomitable Turks. The mas
sac re at Trebizond was' only' less an
outrage than that at bassoon, in that
men only were killed, that the chief
hindrance to the looting of the shops
might be removed. At Ak-Hissar the
local governor himself ordered the kll
ing of 50 Armeniun 'men, telling the
Turks to spare the women and children
for future distribution. There is a per
fect reign of terror in the' mountains
from Trebizond to Erzeroum and Diar
bekir,' and letters from the American
missionaries at Bitlis, Mainovan, Har
poot and elscwliere tell of personal
peril, only to be avoided by incurring
greater peril In any effort to escape.
In Constantinople itself there has
been little or nothing done to quiet
the jx-ople. A gentleman, thoroughly
posted, writes that he knows of but one
man who has been arrested for par
ticipation in the riots, when not less
than 200 Armenians, most of them ab
solutely innocent even of the'possrs
skra tf arms, were shot down, gd he
was released, after two days' confine
ment, only to kill another Armenian
because he "didn't like his looks." The
death in prison of a prominent Turkish
lawyer and editor for presuming to
criticise the government for its mis
management, and the execution of
eight members of the sultan's Albanian
bodyguard, are Indications of the pre
vailing feeling of hostility to the sys
tem that has made one of the most
beautiful and fertile lands on the fiu-eof
tbe earth a desert, and has driven from
the capital almost its entire commerce
and trade.
Perhaps the most serious aspect of
tbe sltustlon is found in the belief that
is gaining ground every where, not only
In Europe, but In Turkey, that the
whole aeries of attacks on the Ar
menians has been ordered from Con
stantlnople and by the sultan himself.
for the double purpose of getting rid
of a people whom be detests and show
Ing Ute Euroarea govern men la that
any Interference ou their pert v 111 re

that confirm I his report the absolute
failure ef every effort te secure reform,
the simultaneous attacks In wblrty dis
tant sections of the empire, and, mast
ef alt, the bitter feeling among those
Turks who have areas enough to see
that It Is suicide to destroy tbe moat

ANECDOTE OF FIELD.
The Poet b Keealled by Means of A
dote la Many Newspaper Offleee.
Many anecdotes illustrating Eugene
Field's character are told n the news
paper offices of St. Louis, where he did
is first newspaper work. The paper
tvith which he wss connected was never
prosperous, and strikes among the re-
HrUrs were as numerous as among
the compositors ou aecoun of 'allur
get their py." ;
t)ne day a big story occurred lu
Belleville, about 14 miles away. Mr.
Field was ordered to go efter it, and
given two dollars for expenses, lie
pent about half of it for a meal, and
hrn went to the depot to get lilst train.
While waitlug for it a woiiiun from
Kansas, with severul children with her,
trying to get east to some point in In-
linua, came iuto the tleixit stranded.
Fluid heard tbs story, sud, plucing his
reinMitiing dollar in a hst, took up a
collection for her, raining the money
ncoroanry to send her to Indians,
In the meantime, the train for the
scene of tbe story pulled awsy and hit
sper wss beaten on It the next morn-
ng. The port's explanation of It t
nn irate editor was: "Wool is a story
like that to a woman with a starving
amlly who wants to get bark home?"
One day the business manager, after
hating vainly tried to raise the money
for salaries, stood off the staff with
p routines based on the expected suc
eras of the paper after tbe i lectio a was
over.
He thee went te talk to Mr. Field In
similar strain, bet prefaced it by
eying! "If you owned this paper
whst would you do with It In this rsm
algn7" "The way I'm feeling now," replied
the humorist, "I'd trade It for a por
tVrbooeo steak and some hash brown
potatore,"
At another time la appreriailon ef

THE MAFIA OF ITALY.
Origin af the Blood-Stalned Roclety-The
Massacre of Palermo.
Crime-stained as it is to-day, and
ghastly with murder every step of its
tortuous, secret career, the Mafia of
Italy sprang into being from an in
spiration of patriotism, but its very
birth was heralded by a libation of
blood.
The Mafia society is over six hundred
years old, having its origin at the re
volt of Palermo, which took place dur
ing an Easter ceremonial in the sub
urbs of that city, in the year 1283. A j
beautiful young girl and her betrothed,
in accordance with the quaint and
primitive customs of that people, ap
proached the Church of the Holy
Ghost to be united in marriage at its
altar, and while the lover sought the
padre in the little room at the rear of
the building his bride paused upon the
threshold.
As she stood there a drunken ser
geant of the French garrison, named
Druet, strode up behind her, threw hit
arm about her waist and kissed her.
With a cry of horror the tore herself
from his grasp and turned to fly, but
the heel of her slipper caught in the
coping of the stone pavement and she
fell, striking her head against a sharp
projection of the cornice.
At that instant the returning lover's
eyes fell upon her prostrate form, and
with the savage fury of a wild beast
he threw himself upon Druet, bore him
to the earth, and drove his stiletto to
the wretch's heart, crying: "Morte alia
Francis!" ("Death to the French!") ,
There was a moment's pause of
silence, and then that maddened cry
became the roar of Infuriated thou
sands. It swelled and deepened; it
took more solemn meaning it became
nationalized and then burst forth:
"Morte alia Francis Italia ancles!"
("Death to the French is Italy's cry!")
For seventy-two hours armed bands,
headed by the father and betrothed of
the hapless girl, hunted down the
French.
But retribution was to eome after
this carnival of blood, and in dread of
the vengeance of the French nation
these unhappy people formed them
selves into secret organization! with
the password and name of the society
made up of the initial letters of the
words which compose that fateful
death cry, thus forming Mafia.
Its object was resistance to oppres
sion, and as the lapse of years added to
itt power and influence it stretched
forth its hand against the rich and
mighty in behalf of the poor and down
trodden. To-day it is the hideous cloak
of the assassin of the night -London

QAYETY OF ENGLISHMEN.

All the Engliah writer, have said
that Englishmen take thrir pleasures

both these respects. There It a vial hie

Cheapness One of the Advantages of the
Move! Ceoveynnoea-Reeetved with
Great Favor la This
Country.
.o'ine prnctibility of these carriage!
seems to be placed beyond doubt. Since
1892 they have, been growing in favor
in' France, and the only wonder is that
we have not seen them over here before
now, The future would appear to be
long' to them, if all be true, and we can
hardly doubt the bona fides; They are
as easily worked as a tricycle prob
ably easier. A novice, as many witness,
is able upon the first, trial to drive hit
carriage over 200 miles' in 2 days of
10 hours apiece,'. Tourists have wan
dered over half a dozen departments in
them, and the taste is spreading every
day. Boon the enthusiasm will reach
England and then well, it is difficult
to say what will happen then. , ,
For among the great advantages of
the petroleum carriage is its remarkable
cheapness. The . cost of a carriage ia
not much in the first instance.. They
are built, as we have said, with touching
fidelity to old forms. There is the dog
cart, the wagonette, the phaeton, the
"break" end the "mylord," as our
French friends have it. From a purely
lay contemplation of these vehicles, we
are not disposed .to think that finality
has been reached In regard to their
shape.
, When the first railway carriages were
constructed, either out of loving con
servatism or from a desire not to of
fend, they were built upon the line of
the stage coach and colored to match.
In time they achieved their own inde
pendence and individuality. Messrs.
Vanhard and Levaseor will probably find
time and experience ripen their In
vention in this respect. At present n
voiture a deux places cost 188; n
volture a quartre places forme dogcart
costs 200; the phaeton, 211, and
the "mylord" beads the price list at
240. These csnnotbe reckoned ex
travagant prices. And when you have
once purchased a volture to your taste
tbe saving seems amazing.
To begin with, two horses csn be dis
carded; and borers, we believe, are
roughly estimated to cost 25 or 30
a year apiece to keep. A purchaser of a
petroleum carriage reckons that it costs
blm from 1.5of. to tf. a day. Tbt manu
facturer'! reckoning it to. per kilometer
for a 1 seated carriage and tie. for n
4 -era ted carriage; let ut say, on an
avertge, something between a half
penny and 3 f arthlngt a mile.
Compare this with the eipensre of
horses. Let us sty a rsb horse costs
some 34, and Is nvsilsble for three
yrsrs; that constitutes a yearly charge
of 12. Add to this 2 for food snd
keeping, and we get a total of 17. The
Initial outlay on tbe vehicle msy be Ig
nored, as we ere also Ignoring tbe initial
coet of n voiture. A borne, year In and
year out, would hardly do more tbta IS
mllrt a day. Out ef tbeae figures, which
re, of eourae, rough, one may deduct
something like twopence n milt at the
east of a horse eerrltge. The advan
tage is In favor of the petroleum car.
