OSMAN PAsHA CRAWFORD.

HIS Career In ihe Stale OF Maryland
A correspondent, writing from
Baltimore, says:
An interesting portion of the
history of Colonel r. Clay Craw-
ford, said to be identified as Osman
Pasha, is his residence in Mary
land, which is in keeping with his
career elsewhere. In 1867 he came
to Chestertown, Kent county, from
Philadelphia, in a steam yacht
called the Tennessee, and purchased
a fine estate from ex-Judge Ezekiel
Chamberlain, and spent a large
amount of money improving it. He
seemed to have great wealth, lived
in splendid style and entertained
literally. He said that he had
commanded a Tennessee battery in
the Federal army during the war,
and had afterward served under
Juarez against the Imperialists in
Mexico. lie had gorgeous Mexi-
can outfits and military equipments
that he occasionally wore and was
fond Of displaying. He showed a
trunk full Of Mexican bonds and
coin, and was given to boasting Of
his military exploits. The leading
families Of the neighborhood took
him up and made him society
favorite He accepted an invita-
ton from the Democrats to deliver
an Grafton at political celebration
at Chestertown, July 4, 1868, and
dumbfounded them with a radical
Republican speech. Afterward he
established a Republican paper
called the Freeman's Journal, and
became one of the most prominent
Republicans Of the Eastern shore
of Maryland. He stumped that
section for Grant and the State
ticket in the campaign of 1868, and
your correspondent remembers
meeting him at a gathering in
Somerset county. He was a bril-.
liant speaker, and so bold in his
talk that timid men declined ac,
companying him. After living in
Ohestertown some three years, hC
departed suddenly, leaving behind
him a host Of unpaid debts, but
carrying off all his personal prop
erty. He had established a per
fumery factory, which failed, anC
his paper was not financial sue
cess. He also swindled some peo-
pie by persuading them to indorsc
his notes, which were never met.
His estate was sold for the beneii
of his creditors, and shortly after.
ward he was reported keeping 4

About 1878, Marylanders in the
Egyptian service wrote home of an
American officer known as Osmar
Bey in the army of the khedive
and a personal description tallie'
with that of Crawford, who was
tall and stalwart, with a reckless
bearing.

-HAeAhANAN NoHSNNSsl
An old but yigorous-looking gem
tleman, seemingly from the rural
districts, got into a car and walked
its full length without receiving an
invitation to sit down. Approach
ing one gentleman who had a whole
bench to himself he asked, "Is this
seat occupied?" Yes, sir, it is" +"
impertinently replied the other.
Well" replied the broad-shoul-
dered agriculturist, 81 will keep
this seat until the gentleman
comes" The original proprietor
withdrew himself haughtily to one
end and looked insulted. After a
while the train got in motion, and
still nobody came to claim the seat,
whereupon the deep.chested agri-
culturist turned aud said "Sir,
when you told me that this saat
was occupied you told me a lie y
such was his plain language" |
never sit near liar if can avoid
it; l would rather stand up" Then
appealing to another party he said:
" Sir, may l sit next to you? You
don't look like a liar" We need
hardly say that he got his seat, and
that the original proprietor thought
there was something wrong about
our social system.

her head-that is Lotta. Sitting
all alone in a camp.chair on the

watched in their graceful hutter

eyes which we have seen sparkle
behind the footlights, fixed solemn

nun could be more demure than
Lotta by the sea. She puts on her
black bonnet and shawl and goes
regularly to church. She walks
much alone by the seaside. She
arrays her tiny form in a doll-baby
bathing suit, and plunges into the
surf and comes out with her hair
all dripping; from the bathroom to
the hotel she walks in a loose white
wrapper and fairy slippers;
sits on the veranda and lets the
wind and sun dry her sunny head;
from her bath and her nap she re-
appears at dinner in the plainest of
clothes, and with the least artificial
color and lxings. Then here is

ENGLISH JOURNALISM AND
THE WAR.
Regiments Of Correspondents at the
Front.
What One Brilliant Writer Accom-.
plished.


by cable 10 New Iork Herald
LONDON. September 7, 1877.
Thus far the war has given very
few opportunities for great news
paper feats. These few, however,
have been made the most of, and
the London press especially de-
serves the highest praise forHts en-
terprise and vigilance. At the out
set the Times laid its plans with
great vigor and foresight, promis-
ing to overmatch all its rivals. 1t
sent out regiment of correspond
ents, covering every point with a
princely disregard of expense, de-
pending, apparently, upon the
number of its men for a certainty
of success. The correspondents Of
the Times are, undoubtedly, an
able corps Of gentlemen, worthy Of
all the prestige and dignity Of that
illustrious English journal.
THE WAR CORRESPONDENT.
Unfortunately, however, these
gentlemen have seemed to be lack
ing in the one essential element of
enterprise. To use sporting
metaphor, "They have shown plenty
of action, but no speed" How
ever excellent are the qualities Of a
war correspondent, the. first great
essential is that he shall be able to
get through to his journal the ac-
count which he has written. News
differs from all other marketable
articles in that it is the most perish
able of all
WHAT is AND is NOT NEWS.
Unlike other men in responsible
positions, the war correspondent
may wreck a career Of success by
one failure. The cashier or teller
of a bank, who receives a worthless
check believing it to be good,
simply adds the deficit to the ac-
count of profit and loss. 1t i;
something for which recompense
can be found in additional caution
for the future. But the news of to-
day becomes history to-morrow,and
its use to the journalist is lost for
ever. The most graphic description
Of a great battle is valueless if il
comes an hour too late. For the
war correspondent who fails there
is no forgiveness, no atonement
There is no such thing as a valid
excuse for failure.

PRECIOUS MOMENTS.


have shown exceeding cleverness,
its correspondents have somewhat
impaired the value of their work by
delay in getting them through to
their destination. In other words,
they have been too late. The Daily
Telegraph is not open TO the same
criticism. With the advantage of
its Turkish leanings, and by dint
of its own enterprise it has run u
brilliant race with its penny rival,
the Daily News. The Daily Tele-
graphs strong point has been the
Russian atrocity business, with the
Oossack as bette NOR. The number
of its correspondents is second only
to that of the Times.
WHERE HONOR is DUE.
The Daily Telegraph has shown
much enterprise, notably in the
engagement at Eski Saghra when
General Gourkha made his famous
dash through the Balkans and in
having the first rumors Of the
Russian defeat at Pleyna. But the
longest Pleyna feather belongs to
the cap of Mr.. Archibald Forbes,
correspondent of the Daily News,
who spent more than twenty hours
in the saddle under fire. Riding

BERGH's headquarters are described in
the Herald The visitor is first delighted
with the stuffed figure Of magnificent
dog, called Fido, who smiles upon him
in the antechamber. Passing this splen-
did creature, one enters the Chamber of
Disgust, where, in the shape of animal
relics and dreadful pictures, Mr.. Bergh's
triumphs are revealed. There is stuffed
bulldog, rescued, all too late, from prize
fight, which at once catches attention.
His right leg seems to be pulverized, like
a chicken bone, his lower lip is gone, his
whole head is stained with blood. The
pictures which hang upon the walls are
Us painful as Mime. Tussaud's Chamber
of horrors and the dilapidated cows,
which are fed upon garbage and sup
ported by belts from the ceiling, do not
increase the desire of the spectator for
milk. Two game cocks, victor and van
pushed, are equipped with murdcrous
steel gaffs, about three inches long, and
their appearance indicates the miserable
cruelties of the cockpit.
