THE TURK IN TROUBLE.

The recent battle in Asia Minor
has been al far more disastrous blow
to the Turks than was at first report
ed. In fact the Turkish army Of
Moukhtar Pashs has disappeared,
scattered and demoralised by the
rout. 1t will require some time 20
gather the fugitives together, reor-
ganize aud reequip them, and in the
meantime the Russians will be push
ing rapidly onward. The position
which the Turks bad taken previous
10 the battle was such as 10 force
back the Russian army that had laid
siege 70 Kals, aud to neutralize the
tue Russian advantage in the occu-
pation OF Ardahan. Eut the Turkish
gene,al, to accomplish this, commit
ted the same blupder that the Rus
SLAMS had previously committed. He
spread out his army over long line
of defense, and thus enabled the en-
emy % concentrate upon the essen
t al points in superior force. The
blow, when delivered, was crushing.
The points of advantage b ing car
ried, the lines of retreat were inter-
cepted. Instead of falling back upon
Kars and behind it, the Turks were
driven south and southeast, and cut
off from Kars. The siege of that
fortress will now recommence, under
much greater advantages TO the Rus
sans, and it is no. Improbable that
40 main body, reinforced by the
4 'daban corrs, may push on towards
Erzerorn. There is now every plob-
ability tLlt the winter compaign in
Armenia will be active. The Rus
SLAMS, evil in their victory, will
noS heed the rigors of tbe c'imat
among the hills of Armenia they
may be dreaming of the roses Of
Damascus.

Down IN A SILVER mlsE.


Those who have never personally in
spected the lower levels Of our mines may
obtain some idea of the degree OF heat to
be found therein by visiting the Savage
works at the change of shifts. The men
packed together as close as they can
stand on the cage-are popped up ont of
the shaft all steaning hot, for all The
world like bunch of asparagus just lif-
ted from the pot. They make their ap-
pearance in cloud of steam that pours
up continuously from the "depths pro-
found" aud are dimly seen until they step
forth upon the floor of the works. AS
the men land and separate, each carries
with him for half minute his little pri-
vate cloud OF vapor. AS this passes of,
the man Is seen TO be naked from the
waist up, bis skin as wet as though be
had just been lifted out OF IA pool of water.
The men bring up with them besides the
steam-an amount of heat that may be
felt by the spectator as they pass. All
this is al the top of the shaft, where it is
considered quite cool--what 0ben, must
1t be hundreds of feet below, where the
men started from-down where the water
stands at 157 degrees Fahrenheit Down
there no steam is seen-itis too bot for IL.
II is only when the hot, moist air coming
up from the lower regions strikes the cool
air toward the Top of the shaft that il
takes the form OF steam. Down there
where the men come from you must keep
your hands off The pump column and the
pipe, and II you pick up an iron tool you
will al once pnt il down without being
told TO do so. Down there they handle
things witt gloves on, or wrapr rags about
the drilsihey are guiding and iron appar-
atus they are moving, aud down there,
too, you will learn 10 keep your month
shut after you have drawn few mouth
fuls OF hot air into yonr lungs. PerspireY z
II is no name for ii. You are like
spunge that is being squeezed. You are
ready TO believe that you have ten million
pores to every square inch Of surface, or
as many more as any authority may mem
tion, aud that all these pores are as big as
the cells of honey-eomb. You 20 for
ice-waler, and II almost seems TO hiss as
il passes down your throatyou keep going
for II and thus, 10 a short time, lnd ont
what becomes Of the tons and tons of Ice
that arc daily consumed 10 The mines !.
Remain below among The miners for an
hour or two, and when you are finally
popped out al the top Of the shaft, all red
hot aud sleaming, among the other aspar-
agus sprouts, you win appreciate the
beauty, the light and the eoolness Of the
upper world Virginia (Nee,) Enter.
