REFORMS IN
ARMENIA
Demanded By the United
States Senate.
A RESOLUTION ADOPTED
The
American Flag Would
Saved 20,000 Lives,
Have
"Washington, Jan. 25. Mnny mc-
morlalH coneernlniiio Turkish and
Armenian question-were presented to
the senate Friday. This led Hill to
ask what had become of the resolution
for energcntlcnctlonby the president.
Culloni, who reported the Turkish
resolution from tho committee on
foreign relations, said he desired to
speed tho best posslblo notion, and
later in tho day would nsk for a vote
on the resolution. There was n brief
flurry when Cullom sought to fcccurc
tho passage of a Joint resolution
amending the act relative to the
Bloomlngton, 111., public buildings.
Allen said there seemed to bo n little
ring In tho senate as to favorable
action on public buildings. Tne enst
secured public buildings but tho
states of tho far west did not.
Onlligcr protested against tho ex
travagance of Allen's language and
there was an extended debate an to
the sections which received public
buildings.
Allen yielded and tha resolution
passed.
Tho Turkish-Armenian resolution
was then called up by Cullom. He
spoke of the condition prevailing
In Turkey. A massacre of IriftdConts"
unparalcllcd for ages had been perpe
trated. Evldenco of bloody encount
ers was given by all clnssess nnd
nationalities until it was beyond tho
slightest doubt. Tho Turkish army
had bayonted, robbed, murdered and
flayed nlivo the people of Armenin.
There wns'no war, but a pltless,merc(
lcss tornado of ruin, bloodshed nnd
death.
The demon fanaticism bad been let
loose. There was a responsibility
somewhere. It did not rest with the
ruler of Turkey, the sultan. Hack of
this were tho disputes of the coun
tries of tho European nlllauce, seek
ing territorial advantages. Tho sul
tan was but u pupct In there hands.
It was a matter of regret nnd embar
rassment that tho policy of tho United
States was such ns to prevent sending
a licet to Turkish waters to put a stop
to the bloody rule prevailing, but
Europe had assumed the obligation of
the protection of Armenia. Tho pco
plo of tho United States were Inten
sely Interested In seeing tho obliga
tion executed and tho purpose of these
resolutions was to plead with tho
greatest earnestnes for tho protec
tion of Armenia.
It was amusing to the pcoplo of tho
United States to witness tho appal
ling slaughter and to sco the indif
ference of tho Christian power.
Thero was n double obligation on
England, yet nothing hud been done
to stay tho hand of tho sultan, except
byfrultless diplomatic correspondence.
The powers appeared to bo waiting
for the dissolution of the Ottoman
empire.
Cullom expressed a doubt "as tho
reported alliance between Russia aud
Turkey. The United states had spoken
in the name of humanity In theaffaira
of Greece and nungary. No event for
centuries called so loudly to the civil
ized world us this slaughter In Turkey,
the greatest, the senator believed, In
the history of the world.
Blanchnrd said that for more than a
year the world had been shocked by
the massacres in Turkey, and, in the
Thm U, S. Gov't Reports
akw ft? Bkl Annfcr
cases of women, worse than massacre.
Ah n great free nation, it wfnsthe duty
of the United Sin ten to' express Its
offlclnl repudiation nnd protest again!
the course of Turkey.
Fryc of Made, made a speech of Hitch
vehemence that tho galleries repeat
edly Interrupted with long-continued
applause. Kryo snld lliu. committee
on foreign relations had heard Armen
ian missionaries who stat'ed (hat the
establishment of United States con
suls at Erzeronm and Ilnrpoot would
glvo effcctlvcr protection.
"If tho American ling had Iwen
raised over tnoconsuluto;at Ilarpoot,"
continued Fryc, wlthOraumllr em
phasis. "It would havoj&ivcri 20,000
lives. j?

mittee, on foreign rain Ions passed

Hammond, whose caso Is different
from that of the others, In that Ham
mond signed ii constlturlonal invita
tion to Jameson to como to Johannes

Jameson marched townrds Johan
nesburg, however, before tho trouble
nrose. When this was discovered
American and other leaders issued a
proclamation calling on tho pcoplo to

beginning, raised tho Transvaal flag,

It Is a common

Islou.nnd that her Interests are nar-

and ambitions. For many reasons
stage people 1110 enabled to study
and understand human nature ns few
can, and It Is tenrccly possible for
them to witness Its variations as
shown In tlioso about them, without
becoming Interested. And It Is also a
pleasure to them to meet pcoplo In the
light of n friend -to have somo one
evince an Interest hi them aside from
11 dispassionate contemplation and
I consideration of their dramatic abil
ity. This fact received a vorllical Ion
hi the cordial ircoptlon accorded a
woman by it 11 actress who has spent
a couple of weeks in ourclty when tho
former called upon herns a friend nnd
a womnn, not with reference to her
profession. Tho actress was llottlo
Bernard Chase, and the woman one
who was nttrneted toward Mrs. Chase
(for such she Is in private life) nfter
witnessing her performance In 0110 of
her favorite roles "Little Coquotte,"
Mrs. Clinso possesses ns charming a
personality off tho stage as on, for tho
reason that sho seeks to appear
nothing but what sho Is a pleasant
mid intelligent womnn. Of course,
other women nro curious as to herper-
sonal appearance, so It Is only kind to
them to state nt once that, In tho first
placo sho was neatly nnd becomingly
dressed. Her faco, which is of tho
Ingenue type, childishly Innocent In
expression, was not guilty of paint or
powdor. Not a harsh lino marred her
features, nor was a wrlnklo to bo seen
except between hor brows tho up
nnd down ones occasioned by a slight
frown whon thinking Intently. She
has lino, well cured for teeth, bright
eyes, nnd n ready laugh, ns Infectious
ns n child's.
Mrs, Chnso Is an interested reader of
the chlof topics of tho day, Is thor
oughly familiar with tho chlof liter
ary contributors, and Is capable of ex
pressing sensible views of different
subjects. "Bab" is 0110 of hor favor
ites, nnd sho never falls to rend her
articles. "Somo way," sho said, "sho
goes right to my licart in nil sho says.'
Mrs. Chnso has been on tho stage
tho greater part of tho tlmo for seven
teen years, and has travelled exten
sively In tho East mid South, but has
never been 011 this coast before. She
prefers tho cllmnto of tho South, nnd
says Oregon weather makes hor sleepy.
"But oh!" said she, "they are hot
headed down thero! Why, In
0110 company that I was with, 0110 of
tho men sought tho acquaintance of a
young lady in n lty whoro wo played,
and hor brother learned of It nnd was
going to kill him. Wo had to sneak
him out tho back door of tho opera
house, nnd out of town."
Three years of tho soveutccn slnco
sho first went 011 tho stngo, were spent
at home, housekeeping. Mrs. Chnso
expressed horself ns liking very much
to keep house, and said sho learned
how at homo when quite u young girl.
She said her llfo wns not a hard 0110,
ns somo might think, though thero
wero many minor nnnoynnccs to bo
borne. That tho hard work enmo
when now plays woro being learned, or
when now players woro taken Into
the company, each Instnnco necessitat
ing many rehearsals. That 0110 must
glvo considerable thought to hor
wardrobe and make-up for different
parts, hut that It becomes second na
ture to havo everything convenient for
Immediate use.
When aslccd If dramatic companies
did not encounter many stage-struck
people, sho replied In tho alllnnallve,
and told of 1111 Incident of
rather recent occurrence, A
young girl from an Oregon town
became Infatuated with stage life ns
sho viewed It, and wished to Join tho
company following them to their
next stopping placo and making hor
wishes known. She possessed no ex
perience, and If ability, It was yot un
developed. Sho did possess deter
mination however, and pressed her re
quest with diligence. Sho boarded at
the samo hotel as did tho troupe. In
n few days tho girl's brother followed
her nnd tried to porsundo her tore
turn, but met with a decided refusal,
Haying sho had joined tho company,
and asking Mrs, Chaso to endorse hor
Highwt of all in Leavening Power.
