ous brigands, who were arrested In Pal
ermo on Easter Sunday, The two
brothers, who have been for long time
the terror Of SiQIlian provinces, aud on
whose head was set price Of $1,000 each,
ventured into the city TO pass the dag
with some comrades and friends. Al
though perfectly disguised and sur
rounded by trusty friends, the police, in
some mysterious way, discovered that
the brigands were in Palermo, and an
ingenious plan was laid to capture them.
Two police agents disguised themselves
as peasants out for holiday, and strolied
about the city until they got near the
house in which the brigands were FEAST
ing with their friends. When within
ear-shot the pretended PEASANTS feigned
to quarrel. Words ran shign, and the
two made such Q noise that the brigands
game to the window to see what, WAS the
matter. They saw, as they supposed,
two peasants quarreling, and, enjoying
the sight, they remained to look on. Al
last the pretended row reached such a
pitch that one of the disputants drew a
revolver, upon which the other ran away,
and the brigands' house being the near
est refuge ne ran directly into the door
way, his adversary with the revolver
following in hot pursuit. Meantime an
otner part OF the plan was being carried
out. While the noise outside was going
on the house had been gradually ana
quietly surrounded by the police, all in
pain dress, however, and all more or
less concealed, except two, who, at a
given signal, suddenly appeared on The
scene, as Ii attracted by The dispute.
Seeing one man, revolver in hand, pur-
suing another, what more natural than
that they should give chase? The first
two rushed intO the brigands' house, the
others followed, a whistle was heard,
and still other men appeared, and be-
lore the Drlgands comprehended the
situation the loom where they were was
filed with armed men.
Then, but too late, 1t flashed upon
them, and, although both brothers at
tempted desperate esistance, the odls
were too great for them and they Were
soon oYerpoWered.
PInioned and handcuffed to each
other, they were brought out into the
streets of Palermo, where the report
that the terrible Allani brothers had az
last been taken spread like wildtire, and
the people crowded into the streets,
cneering the police as they marched
along with their prizes.-l Boston Tran

with the insurgents. The war now
ragged more tiercely, ana during the
whole summer fighting was continued
between Turkey aud servia. Sultan
Amyrath V was a mere imbecile, and it
was concluded to dethrone him, and on
August 81 ho was displaced and his
brother, Abdul Hamid, made Sultan.
The war was pushed vigorously with
decided advantage in favor of Turkey,
and in September SerYia asked for
peace, and her request was sustained
by England, who demanded fer her an
armistice of a month to be followed by
negotiations for peace. Turkey was
willing to negotiate for peace, bat would
not grant the armistice, Finally the
parmistice was concluded and peace me-
gotiations commenced. Propositions by
one party were rejected by the other,
and nothing was accomplished. The
great Powers now proposed terms OF
peace, but these were rejected by Tur-
key Russia became uneasy and threat
ening towards Turkey, and seemed dis
posed to openly support Seryia. Turkey
asked q six months armistice. Russia
refused this and demanded six weeks
armistioe. In this she was supported
by the other Powers. Finally she gave
an ultimatum OF two months armistice
with hostllities to cease in forty-eight
hours. Turkey accepted, and the arm.
istiee was signed November /, 1876.
Then came the peace conference at
Coustantinople. composed OF represe n,
tatives of all the great Powers. A de-
mand WAS made for peace nearly on the
basis of the Andrassy note, and signed
by all the Powers. Turkey rejected il
and became more defiant. Russia ap-
peared conciliatory, but no terms which
the Powers could make were acceptable
to Turkey, and the negotiations entire.
ly failed. The armistice was prolonged
| to March i, 1877. In the meantime Ser.
via had made terms Of peace. Russia
continued to urge the claims OF the
Christian provinces tor protection, and
issued circular denouncing the posi-.
tion Of Turkey in refusing the PROPOSE
lions of the Powers. Both Tur-
key and Russia were busy in war prep
arations. England was anxious to
preserve peace. Through her protocol
was prepared conceding something to
Turkey; this was accepted by Russia
and all the Powers, but on being pre-.
sented to Turkey was promptly re-
jected. .i'. .
The Russian Government declared
the course of Turkey a menace to Eu-
rope, to hristianity and humanity,
and expressed its determination to Of
fer by force Of arms that protection to
the Christian provinces which diplom-
acy had failed to secure. The Rus
sian army was increased as fast as pos
sible, aud pushed to the frontier, and al
ter it was well on its way a decree was
issued by the Gar declaring war
against Turkey, and giving the reasons
therefor. The events which followed
this declaration are so fresh 40 to be
easily remembered. ..U ..
