ready thousand.faced Eastern Question.
To while away the time, after tea we
went into the garden, watch is about an
acre in extent, and has been reclaimed from
the fertile wilderness around by Mr.,
Zamorski's own hands,. II is a microcosm
of what this whole land might, could, and
should be. 1t is'laid out in a flower and
kitchen garden, the former glorious in lie
blaze Of summer beauty, the latter cram
mel with every fru t and herb which is
good for man. The station-master's fani-
ly is unable to consume the half of what
this acre produces, SO the rest is given
away to people who are too lazy to pro-
Guce food for themselves. There is alb
solutely no market. New,Iaid eggs are
five a penny, chickens twopeuce apiece,
and a flt goose %sixpence at Slumla. As one
walked among apricot trees loaded with
fast ripening fruit, and saw grapes, pIums,
apples, almonds, and cherries in such pro.
fusion, one could not help getting indig-
nant at the thought that almost the whole
of the boundless wealth of this ma5nih-
cent country is wasted from sheer idle
ness aud stupidity. Will it be credited
that the peasants here, who, s.nsibly
enough, almost all keep poultry, %invaria-
bly, throw the feathers away Admins
tered by Englishmea what a Paradise
would Turkey be! The Pravady valley,
properly drained, would produce fool for
millions, while now it scarcely provides
for hundreds. The wooded heights are
alive with every sort of game, from quaiIs
to eagles, from bears and deer to hares.
Every man is at liberty to take his gun
and knock down what he can, but, as a
rule the rich are too lazy and the poor too
timiI to enjoy their privileges. 4 few
men g. into the woods for hareS and on
the lakes for fish, but it may be generally
said that the Turks make no use OF their
vast and teeming game-pteserves. An
instance OF the s'0yenly aud uncertain gov
ernment of this lanl may b. found in the
fact that there Isl gun tax OF q hundred
piastres a year, but uoooly kncws any
body who ever paid it.. ''But what would
YOU do If an official were to come and de-
mend arrears ?" l said to an Englishman,
who had used a gun for a dozen years.
Why, l should first threaten to kick the
fellow II he weren't OIL, an then give MN
a b4ckshcesh Of ten piastres to get rid of
him peaceably." 1t IS a strange land
indeed Not far from the station l saw
some men planting vines, and stopped to
inquire why each plant was dipped into
d bucket before it was put into the
ground and watered. The fellows were
very civil, but did rot know what it was
done for. 1--WE always do it that way;
don't you Efendi, do the same in your
country ?" L told them we grew no
grapes in England, at which they looked
mildly astonished at our want OF sense.
God be with you and send you plenty OF
grapes, men !" "May He also preserve

A Scoundrel Exposed.

One of the worst clerical scandals re-
ported for long time comes from Han
nibal, Mo. The Congregational church
there, the second in numbers and infiu-
ence in the state, called to its pastorate
last fall Rev. John Foster, who had been
preaching at Brookfield, Mo. and he en-
tered with great spirit and energy upon
his duties. He attended the Moody and
Sankey meetings at Chicago, and went
back full of zeal and enthusiasm. Soon
after New Years the various churches of
Hannibal united in a series of Union re-
vival meetings, which continued nearly
two months, and in which Foster took a
conspicuous part, and large number
of conversions followed. Meanwhile
hiuts had come to the officers of the
church that their new pastor was not
what he seemed, and, though the ma
Jority had perfect confidence in him, a
quiet Investigation was begun, which
soon developed q remarkable record of
crime.
1t was discovered that, while the
mans real name is probably Foster, he
has at different times passed under as
sumed names. In 1858, while in col
lege, he was professor of religion and
studying for the ministry, but afterward
took TO the law. He was first married
in 1852, but about 1868 he deserted his
wife, leaving her with five children de-
pendent upon her for support. He then
bigamously married young girl in Ver-
mont, and persuaded her parents TO sell
their little home and, with him, move
West. The father-in-law soon after
died, and Foster, having squandered
this woman's estate, gathered a large
amount of money and departed, leaving
her, with one child and her aged moth
er, in destitute circumstances. Without
waiting for decree of divorce, he mar
ried the third, fourth, fifth and sixth
times. His plan of operation seems to
have been TO abandon the woman in
each case when her money was gone and
his credit among her relations was lost.
He is also charged with various embez-
elements, and has been confined in pris-
son upon at least two occasions as the
result OF these crimes.
Meanwhile, he has played the role of
minister. When the investigating
committee had discovered these facts,
they went 10 Foster and asked him to
explain. He was taken altogether
aback, hesitated, prevaricated, denied,
and admitted alternately. He admitted
having been very wicked, but claimed
that he was converted about two years
ago In Kansas, and said that, having
since then reformed, he did not think Ii
fair to bring up his ante-conversion re-
cord to confront him. He confessed
having had numerous wives, but said
that he had been divorced from all ex-
cept two, whom he had married while
drunk, and, as he believed they were
prostitutes, he didn't consider these
marriages binding. The committee
gave him twenty-four hours to resign,
and he cleared out, with his present
wife, who is said TO be most estimable
woman. He claimed that he was going
TO Michigan, but II is said that he went
into western New York and reported
himself as still pastor of the Hannibal
church, enjoying six months vacation,
the church having agreed TO pay all his
expenses during that time.-[Ex.

An Unfortunate News.Hunter.

Out In search of an item to-day, we
asked a fellow-citizen, "What's the
news" Nothing startling" he re-
piled. That man would never do for q
newspaper reporter IN small interior
town. Nothing startling, indeed Why,
as he made the remark two dogs were
preparing to sign articles for q prize
fight right in front of HIS store; wa
gon loaded with wood could be seen in
the distance, which was sure to pass his
way during the day if something did not
break; two women whom he knew to
be mortal enemies were approaching
each other on the corner above; a doc
tor was hurrying across the street, and
a man who always kicks up fuss and
gets arrested when he gets drunk was
just entering the door Of saloon few
doors below. Had that fellow-citizen
had the soul ofa reporter within his
breast-or in any other part of his body
where reporters expansive soul could
find lodgment-he would have got out
his jack-knife, picked up chip, and sat
down on box ON the sidewalk and
whitfield and waited for something start
ling. Nothing came of all the incidents,
however. The dogs signed peace pro-
tocol aud formed an alliance to bark at
passing horse, the load of wood was
delivered lower down tho street, the
women merely swept their skirts aside
from each other as they passed, the doc.
tor only wanted to borrow ten dollars
on the other side of the street, and the
man who makes noise when he gets
drunk simply went into the saloon to
Inquire what time the Battle Mountain
stage started. So, after all, we have
"nothing startling" to record as having
occurred in Austin to-dav.- Austin

A book about sport In South America,
written by Major Ross Of the English
army, presents an interesting account of
game In Patagonia. The clief game on
the Patagonisn shores are the guanaco

particularly shy, and in many cases they
may be supposed to have been altogeth-
er unfamiliar with the human form. for
the range of the roaming natives is linn
tied by the great scarcity of water. AS
for the oetriches, it was very hard to

Caught by Telegraph.

Twas a telegraph operator and station
agent on one of the western lines of
railway when this adventure, of which
am going to tell you, happened to me.
1t was wild and stormy night, and
as the depot was nearly half mile out
of town, the set of loafers which usually
collected about the stove in the waiting
room had evidently concluded to seek
some place nearer home to spend the
evening In, and, for wonder, | was
quite alone.
The express from the west was due at
nine-ffty. After that / should be at
liberty, and began TO wish the evening
was over long before the train came
along, or else had some one to talk to,
for the depot was in one of the loneliest
spots that could have been selected, and
the wind kept up dismal moaning in
the pines close by, and every now and
then seemed to be positively bowling on
the wires of the telegraph. l began 10

man, who was in the habit of saying
prayers In field behind a turf-dyke.

the opposite side listening.to the man at
his devotions, who expressed his convic-
ton that he was very great sinner, and
that even were the turf-dyke at that mo-
ment to fall upon him il would be no
