were baffled, the entrance to the cave
being well guarded and bravely de-
Tended by the refugees. This show of
resistance on the part of the people, and
the fact, perhaps, that three of their
number were mortally wounded by the
shots fired from within, seemed to eXas-
perate them the more, and after two or
three further attempts to effect an en-
trance, but without success, they deter
mined by any possible means to put i'm
mediately to death those within. They
accordingly set to their internal work,
and by means of crowbar they ulti-
mately succeeded in opening hole on
the roof of the cave, through which
without loss of time they proceeded to
pour a large quantity of birthstone and
asphalte, to which they set fire by firing
their guns through the hole. As con-
sequence, the inside of the cave was in
a few minutes filled with smoke so
dense that the poor people dropped
down one by one, dying of sutfocation
and the souls of 800 martyrs
fled almost simultaneously toward the
foot of the throne of their Creator, the
Almighty. Out of the 800 who entered
the cave only eighteen were saved, al
most by miracle, having on first en-
tering the cave taken their stand at the
farthest end of it, and having after the
Circassians had taken themselves off.

work, come out of that immense grave

bodies of their acknowledges of yes

OF those who had fled to the mount
aims, the husbands were in utter ignO-
rance as to the fate of their wives, the
wives as to their husbands, the fathers
had lost their children, mothers their
daughters. Large numbers of young
girls were carried off by Grcassians
and Bashi-Bazouks, countless women
were dishonored and afterward tort
ured to death, while parents, seeking in
agony for their children, were seized,
despoiled of all their property, and shot
in cold blood. 1t becomes impossible
to describe at length the atrocious deeds
committed, the murders, the pillage,
the massacres, the mutilations, or to fix
the number of young girls that were
carried off. No less than 5000 carts
were laden with plumber and young
girls. Three hundred of the popula-
ton of VIA are lying about in the
streets of the town dead and mutilated,
presenting a most CHASTITY aspect. The
number Of the massacred at VIA has

Woes of Americans Abroad.

THE American Legation and Consul
ate could tell many piteous tale of
the wants and woes of Americans in
Paris. Naturally, there is no fund sup
piled by Government for the relief of
such sufferers, though there exists a
very general impression among the
travelling portion of our population that
such fund does actually exist 1t does
not, and it could not; its revenue would
be deyoured by impostors. 1t is to
guard against imposition and to relieve
actual distress among our country peo-
pie that the American Charitable Asso-
citation was organized. 1t is supported
by contributions and subscriptions
merely, the American churches aiding
to some extent, though it must be con-
fessed that our American church1goers
in Paris mainly interest themselves in
the French poor, instead of our own.
Over 81, 900 has been subscribed for the
American fund this winter, however,
and the approaching performance will
bring in something handsome to their
treasury. The chief call upon the as
Sociation is for funds to send our wan
dering sheep back to their native fold,
there to be cared for by their own peo-
pie Such an association should exist,
indeed, in all the larger cities of Eu-
rope, as our representatives abroad can
hardly be expected to eXpend all their
salaries II works of charity and mercy.
Then would we be spared the stigma of
any such tragedy as occurred in Lon
don a few years ago. A young Ameri-
can girl, brought abroad by Scotch
family, was summarily dismissed for
some trifing breach of discipline and
was sent from Edinburgh to London
with few pounds only in her pocket.
She tried to obtain employment, but
in vain, and when her small stock
of money was exhausted she sought for
some aid to enable her to return to her
native land. All efforts failed. The
cruel alternative between starvation and
sin presented itself. She wrote letter,
which was afterward published, unut-
terably pathetic by reason of the very
calmness and resignation of its tone.
She simply set forth in it the particu-
lars of her case, stated the steps she
had taken to obtain work or help, and
their failure, and then prayed God to
forgive her for what she was about to
do. 81 cannot SIM she wrote; Il
should feel as though my dead mother
were looking at me from HEAVIER"
This letter finished, she left it upon the
table of her humble lodgings and
wended her way to the Thames, in
whose gloomy waters she sought and
found refuge from the snares and
trials of this world. -P0ris Cor. N. Y

His Mistake.

As a Woodward avenue car, having
a dozen passengers, was coming down
town yesterday, a long-necked man, who
hadn't smiled since the last California
earthquake, suddenly tried to throw up
a window, and at the same time called
out:
There's a robin-there one of the
beautiful spring songstersr'
Some rushed to the platform and 9TH
ers looked from the windows, but they
could not see the bird. Finally one
man asked:
"Where is it-what tree is he on?'
81 guess faint robin, after all, :"
replied the strange man as he drew in
his head. Come to look closer see
it is an old horse drawing half cord
of stove-wood on a wagon!'
The passengers thought they heard
the noise of coff'ee-mill at work, but it
was only the strangers way of laugh
ing down his throat. detroit Free

OLD LETTERS

AY, better burn them. What does it avail
10 treasure the dumb words so dear to us?
Like dead leaves tossed before the autumnal
gale
Will be each written page we cherish thus
When Times great wind has swept them all
away
The smiles, loves, tears, and hatreds of to-day.
Living we hoard our letters holding them
Sacred and safe as almost sentient things;
80 strong the yearnlng tide of grief to stem,
SO true when doubt creeps in or treason stngs;
Parting may smile, such golden bridge between;
Chance cannot come where such stamped faith
has been.
Dying, we leave them to our children's care
Our well-prlzed solace. records of the time
When life lay spread before us, rich and fair,
And love and hope spoke prophecies sublime;
Lore slowly gathered through laborious hours,
Wits playful flashes, sweet poetic flowers.
All these to us, to us-and for awhile
Our loved will guard the casket where they lie
CHANGING them over with fearful smile
Touching their following foldings tenderly;
A little while; but Life and Time are strong
Our dearest cannot keep such vigils long.
And by and by the cold bright eyes of youth
Light ing on such old fiotsam of the past
The shattered spars of trust and hope and truth
On the blank shore of Times great ocean
cast
Will read and judge, with naught of soft be-
hooving,
Dissecting, sneering, anything but loving.
SO let us burn them all-the tottering words
The guided baby fingers wrote us first,
The school-boy scribble lines the man affords
To the old eyes that watched, old hands that
nursed
The girls sweet nonsense, confidence of friend,
And these, our own, ours only, till the end.
Heap them together; one last fervent kiss,
Then let them turn, ere we do, into dust,
Ashes to ashes. Well and wise it is
10 meet the end that comes, as come it must,
And leave no relics to grow gray and rotten
Waiting the certain doom of the forgotten.
