MEHEMEr ALI@PAsHA, who com
mands the Turkish troops in Bosnia
is not a Prussian, as stated In several
of the German journals, but the sol Of
a FrenchYxn settled In Berlin. His
father, named Detrois, was formerly
harpist of the Royal Theatre in that
city. About forty years ago he con-
fded his son to a Prussian captain then
going to thew evant. On arriving in the
Bospborus the lad deserted from tho
ship to escape the ill-treatment he re-
oeived cupboard, and took refuge with
. great Turkish seigneur, by whom he
was placed At school. The youth en-
braced the Mohammedan religion, and
made rapid progress. Thirty years
later he waSa General of Division pur-
suing brigands in Thessaly. 1t was by
the greatest of hazards that the father
discovered that Mehemet Ali Fasha
was his son. AS soon as he knew 1t
he at once informed the latter of his
wretched condition, and the son imme-
diately sent to him a sum of money
through the Ottoman Embassy at Ber-
lin, asking for the blessing of his pa.
rent whom he had supposed to be long
dead.
