PROGRESS OF WOMEN IN TURKEY.-A Con-
StantlnOple (January , letter to the PhiadeI-
phla Press gives an Interesting account of the
disturbed condition OF that city, the appre
tensions OF revolution. and the new depar-
ture of the Turkish women. The particips-
ton OF Turkish women in the care of the
wounded is one of the strange things that has
come TO pass in this war. For the first time in
the history OF the country they have aban-
doned their habits of seclusiOn shaken Cd
their prejudices against association with Cha
ours, and are rendering good service a.
nurses, cooks and attendants in the hospitals.
The English volunteer lady nurses aud the

In Turkey there seems 10 be the beginning of
new era for women.

A BOSTON Boy MURDERER CoNYICTRD.-
In the superior court of Boston, Monday,
Henry Hickey, the youth who Oh December ID
shot and killed John Cronin in that city was
found guilty OF manSlaughter. Hickey is
about eleven years of age, has been in the
reform school, and seems to be a disciple Of
Jesse POmerOy. The princial ties limony against
him was that OF the sister of the murdered
enid, who remembered the occurrence dis
tlnctly. She testified that she and her little
brother came out of her parents apartments
and met the Hickey boy on the stairs. The
latter had pistol and he shouted, Look out
or L III shoot you" She warned m not to fire.
and hurried her little brother down stairs.
Hickey leaned over and fired, hitting her
brother and killing him almost inS antly.
The defence set up that the shooting was acct
dental, the boy stating that he thought the
pistol was half cooked. The trial only lasted
lew hours, and the jury after a half hours de-
Liberation brought i'm a verdict of man
slaughter. Sentence is deferred.

THE Timber Trades Journal, pub
lished at London, England, reports
in it's last issue a very discouraging
outlook for the timber trade of that
market. 1t seems that the stocks
of nearly all kinds of wood, are un-
usually heavy for this season OF the
year, and as they are constantly be-
ing Increased by the arrival of fresh
supplies, the market is all the time
growing weaker and more unsatis-
factory, acting, in fact, very much
az markets upon this side do under
similar circumstances. The imports
into the London markets this season
have been very heavy, and large
portion of the amount received, it
is said, still remains unsold, SO that
there is but little prospect OF any
immediate Improvement IN the sit
nation. The uncertainty that ex
lists as 10 whether or not there vii
be wax in Europe in which Eng
land will be involved, appears tC
have paralyzed nearly all kinds O
business, and the effect of the de
preston is manifested very plainl,

The English papers are very fo nd
of pointing to American bank man
agement as reproach to this coun-
try. 1t will be interesting to read
the col clusions they draw on the
subject of that colossal swindel, the
Bank OF Glasgow. America fur
nishes no parallel for such gigan-
tic piece of fraud and crime which
comes over from the supposed
staunch financial capital of Scotland.

DESERTED VILLAGES. - While
roaming through the oil country,
our interest was excited by havin G
certain localities pointed out to us
as the place where once stood small
city. Perhaps part Of the oil re-
gion shows this as much as that
situated between Oil City and Titus
vile, and no place as much as Pc
troleum Center. We stand amazed, !,
and almost doubt the truth of our
information, when we are told that
this is the Petroleum Center we saw
ten years ago. At the time, as the
name implies, it was the center of
the land Of grease. Surrounded SIS
it was by the best oil-producing
country, it could not be otherwise.
Vast number of houses, stores. ma
chine shops, etc, were erected in a
short time, and in 1868 it was a city
of 5000 or 1000 inhabitants. Every
body in oildom knew the Petroleum
Center. The city had banks, i'm
mense hotels, large business houses,
and could boast of three or four
fine churches. The whole country
around the place was a city. At
night it was almost impossible TO
get through the crowd collected vor
all kinds of pleasure. What a
change! Nothing can be compared
to it except the destruction OF war.
Instead of fine residences, the
ground is now used for potato
patches a road marks the place
where the principal street was; the
churches yet stand, but nobody re-
mains to attend them. Perhaps
there are one hundred inhabitants
in the town nov. North Of Petro-
leum Center we were shown the
place where in go and '67 was the
famous Benninghoff Run. There
remains not a sign of anything ev-
er having been there. AS many
will remember, this was one of the
best oil territories iu the country at
that time. On the northern part OF
this farm was a small town Of the
name of Dublin. II had two hun
dred inhabitants, and was the ter
minus of the Beuninghoff Run rail-
road. Not a single house remains.
In fact, one would think, not know
ing any better, that it had never
been cleared. Many towns like
this have gone the same way. But
perhaps the next of Importance is
Pithole. Like Petroleum Center ii
is nearly gone. When C. b Dun
can, who died in Glasgow some
years ago, made his will, he left a
church of Pitbole s25, 900. During
the legislation which followed
committee was sent to find tht
church. They returned and stated
that no such building existed, no
could they find anyone who eve
knew of it. The facts are, whel

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE,

ST. PAUL, hINN, Nov. IS, 1873.
You are respectfully invited and requested
to attend or to appoint delegates TO attend,
as the case may be the convention TO be held
in St. Paul, December 18th, 1878.
The object is to take such action and pro-
mote such influences as will secure at the
earliest practicable period, he enlargement
and.other Improvement of the harbor of Du-
luth, and hasten all improvements on our
northern water highway, as will give the
largest sized vessels free and uninterrupted
navigation through the great lakes.
The rapid settlement and fertile character
of the vast region of country north, south
and west of the head of Lake Superior, has a
right to expect and to demand such improve
ment of this natural route TO the markets ol
the world, as will give to the produce the
most direct, and cheapest route, and to the
consumer the products of this region ct the
smallest cost. lt is manifest that this de
sirable result cannot be reached while the
products cfthe country referred to are carried
from three hundred TO FIVE hundred mile.
out Of the way by the circuitous and expen
sive railroad transportation to the large cite
on Lake Michigan. The head of Lake Supe
rior at Duluth is about the same distance b.
water lines from New York, Boston, anC
other leading eastern cities and the market
of Europe, as is Chicago or Milwaukee. The
region of country commercially adjacent Il
and tributary to Lake Superior should no
