Tbe report that was recently sent out
from Constantinople that sixty Arme­
nians were massacerd there early last
week was not exaggerated. On the
contrary, the affair turns out more seri­
ous than was at first announced. The
massacre occurred at the village of

sons were killed and all the Armenian
houses pillaged.

Napoleon Sarony, the famous photo­

Brady he has probably photographed
more celebrities than any other artist
in the United States. Sarony was 76
years of age, a native of Quebec. He
began his career as a lithographic ar­
tist, and was in the fiont ranks of his
profession. In 1858, he went to Eu-.
rope to study. Afterwards, he took
up the business of photography at Bir-
mington, England, where he remained
until 1866.
Then he established
himself in New York, meeting with
wonderful success from the first day he
opened his gallery.

A. Graveyard Mystery.
The dismembered body of an un­
known woman was found in a shallow
grave near St. Joseph, Mo. Two
employes at the asylum claim to have
seen two men go into the field at night,
dismount, and, after opening the
grave, ride away, leaving it uncovered.
The body has the appearanoe of having
been buried several weeks. The police
are mystified by the find, and have no
clue upon which to work.

St. Louis, Nov. 16.—A special to
the Republic from Dallas, Tex., says:
Deputy United States Marshal Er-
Win and posse arrived in Dallas today
from a scout in the panhandle after
Mexican oattle-thieves. Erwin gives
details of a battle in Childress oounty,
Tex., in which two Mexicans were
killed and two Texans wounded. The
Mexicans had committed numerous
robberies, and several murders in Colo­
rado and New Mexioo, and had been
pursued into Western Oklahoma and
Texas. In the Kiowa and Commanche
reservations of Oklahoma, they stole
upward of fifty horses and several head
of cattle. The Indians, who followed
the Mexicans, solicited aid from the
sheriff of Childress county, who, with
a posse of deputies and citizens, over-
took the Mexicans last SaturdSyaffer-
noon. The Mexicans were armed with
Winchesters and pistols. Near the
boundary of Childress and Hall coun­
ties a pitched battle took place, in
which two of the five Mexicans in the
band were killed and one wounded.

San Francisco, Nov. 16.— Early yes­
terday morning the British ship Lar­
naca arrived off the port from Valpar­
aiso. She was met outside the heads
by a pilot who carried orders for her to’
proceed to Portland. Her captain at
once changed his oourse and headed his
vessel with the westerly wind to clear
Point Reyes, on a tack out to the open
sea.
The big vessel was slowly moving
along under the light breeze when sud­
denly came a confused shouting of or­
ders off to starboard, and the next in­
stant a vessel under full sail crashed
into the Larnaca, just forward of the
main rigging. For a moment the two
vessels hung together, then ground into
each other as they swung apart. Their
tangled rigging was torn from aloft
and oame crashing to the. decks of the
vessels, driving the scared sailors
under the timbers of the foreoastle
head to esoape the falling blocks and
cordage.
The vessel that ran into the British
ship was the Pierre Cornielle, bound
in from Newcastle. Pilot Miller had
boarded her some hours before and was
directing the bark’s course, leaving the
crew to keep a ¡lookout ahead. The
vessel had all her sails set to catoh the
light wind and she was going almost
dead before it.^The pilot on the poop­

he was not aware of the danger until
the two vessels were together. The
meh on the lookout forward had be­
come engaged in other work and ne­
glected to keep watch. The night was
clear and the master and crew of each
vessel blames the other for the disaster.
The Larnaca had her starboard bul­
warks crushed in, the rail torn away
and two plates in her hull above the
water line were cut through. The
Pierre Cornielle lost her jib-boom, and
with it went most of her headgear.
Some of her forward plates were start­
ed by the force of the collision. After
they had been separated the British
ship turned her bows for port, and will
be repaired before proceeding on her
voyage to Porltand.
