singing duet in keeping. or all the
charming engravings for which peter

sides this, however, there are some
fifty other embellishments, including
very beautiful colored steel fashion

Lost Ariadne." Every lady ought to
have this magazine. Now is just the.

Hassan Tehmi Pasha, Turkish minister Of
justice, in England on a special mission con-
corning Egypt, drove in state to the London
foreign Office on the 10Th. Musurus Pasha,
Turkish ambassador, introduced Tehmi to
Granville, foreign minister. A long con-
ference ensued. After the conference the
Count Munster gave a long explanation to
Granville Of Germany's views on the Egyptian
question.
1t is said the English government has de.
cided to resist any attempt on the part of
Turkey to occupy any portion of Egypt or
land troops in that country. There is excite
ment at the war Office. Orders have been
sent to Chatham, Portsmouth and Woolwich
which caused much activity at the great naval
stations. Another installment of troops was
ordered to embark immediuteyto Alexandria

ness at any moment. Indications all point to
