Turklah PunIshments.

In Turkey twenty years ago men,
we're hanged for trifies; tradesmen who
sold short weight might be nailed bv
the ear to their own doorposts. and
petty thieves, as we'll as men who were
impairment TO officials or who refused
to pay their taxes twice over, We're
bastinadoed on the soles of the feet
This last punishment, by the way, was
light or cruel according as the patient
was accustomed to go barefooted or to
spend his life in babouches The water
carriers, pOTters, street fruit sellers,
and peasants generally, whose soies
were like horn, cared little for twenty
five cuts with bamboo; but to t. les
men, clerks, and women the stripes
were eXcruciatingly painful and
brought weeks of lameness.
The present Sultan has abolished
the batlnadO in the European part of
his dOminiOns, and practically done
away with capital punishment, except
for brIgandage and for attempts of as
sassinating high officials. Even brig
ands. however, are only hanged when
they have laid hands on foreigners and
caused an cutlery In the European
press. Genuine Turks seldom find
their way into Jail, saving for murder
or inability to pay taxes, and the muir
ders are often committed under the in
huence of religious fanaticism, when
the Mussulman. driven mad by the fast
Of the Ramadan or by the rejOicings of
the Bairam holidays, runs amuck with
knife among a crowd of GiaOurs.
Such offenders, however, are always
leniently dealt with by the Pashas, un-
less, of course, they happen to kill
foreign Christian having an Ambassa-
dOre to avenge him.
In Turkish prisons the Mussulmans
and Christians are kept apart, and the
former, a grave and gentleman-like
looking set of men, bask in the sun
most Of the day, smoking, and the per
form frequent additions at the trickling
fountain In the middle of their airing
yard. They give no trouble, and wait
with the utmost patience until it shall
please Allah to open the prison doors
for them. The Christians, q herd of
Greeks, BUlgaTians, and Macedonians,
with the most viIlainous faces, morals,
and manners imaginable, have to be
ruled with a tight hand to be kept
from strangIing one another. When it
becomes necessary to hang one of these
gentry the Greek goes to his punish
ment struggling and bowling; the
Turk makes no more ado about the
matter than if he were going to have
his head shaved. AS the Turkish Ex-
eheIuer provides no hangman rropes
for executions, some curious things
occasionally happen. Not long ago a
Turk, who had to be hanged at Aird-
iOli, walked about the town for an hour
with two soldiers who had been ordered
to execute him. These soldiers did not
mean to buy d rope with their own
money, and they failed to borrow one.
Eventually, they broke into a stable,
stole a rope, and hanged their man
from a nail over the doOr.-TempLe

was more than charmed, and entertained
her friends with a delightful fund Of
anecdote. But, horror Of horrors, when
u o'clock came and it was proposed to
break up the festivities, little Bobby
s. was tOO-tOO-weu you under

To call a waiter to assist Bobby to his

she had often treated him in the same

this thoughtful act that tears of graft

Three Noted widows.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher has re-
turned from Florida, and is seen on the
streets occasionally, little figure,
slight, white-haired, and folded in q
black shawl. When seen lately there
was the faintest touch of pink on her
cheeks, giving her that delicate, she'll
like beauty which sometimes goes with
a soft, white skin and white curls. She
had a bunch of lilies Of the valley in
her bosom.
Mrs. Beecher's rooms are full of pic
lures of her husband as the young
lover, in the prime of life, as he was
the year he died; and most Of these
pictures are so placed that the trail of
a vine, the petals of a flower caTess
them. Her interests in life are largely
the things that interested him, or that
she believes would, if he were now
living, meet his approval. She gives q
helping hand to the Brooklyn WOman's
Health Protective Association, which
wishes to clean the streets of a dirty
city.
Mrs. Custer, In black dress, and with
winning eyes. was seen on Broadway
the other day. Mrs. Custer has the
record, 1 believe, of never making an
acquaintance who does not wish to be-
come her friend She walks the pave
ments with a splendidly free step, in
which one could almost fancy g remin-
iscence of the plains. a more prosaic
explanation is found in her broad-soIed,
common-sense shoes. She is devoted
to her husbands memory, and absorbed
In her literary occupations.
Mrs. Julia Dent Grant looks well and
kindly, and is at present rather stouter
than IS altogether becoming. Queen
Victoria, however. is heshier, and Mrs.
Grant dresses in better taste than
Queen Victoria. Not much credence
is to be given to the report that she VIII
go to England to live with Mrs. SartOris-
All her interests are on this side of the
water. Another report, even less prob
able, says that she has plans for voIu-
minous literary production. When she
has finished the "reminiscences which
now engage her. which VIII be practi-
caIly her autobiOgra ply, it is more than
doubtful if she sets about any further

about perfumes, and while he submitted
with good grace to the patChOuly, white
rose or stephanOtOs sprayed upon him,
he resolved to bide his time for an ex-
preston of his views. 1t came yester-
day, for while out for an airing he had
the good luck to come upon dead rat,
and before his nurse could prevent,
threw himself upon his back and rolled
over and over the defunCt rodent until
he was fairly reveling in a perfume of
his own choice. His mistress feelings
were deeply outraged. She was beside
herself with rage at Master Films con-
duct, and hooking the handle Of her sun
shade in his collar so as to keep him at
arms length she turned her steps to-
ward the hotel. 1t was just before the
dinner hour and the veranda was
crowded.
"Here comes the perfumed dog" was
the cry, and a rush was made by the
young ladies to Overwhelm him as usual
with caresses. With loud EXPLANATIONS
of disgust, the fair maidens fell back in
disorder, while Master Elm, with his
tail tucked close and snug between his
legs, made his way upstairs with what
may very justly be called q hang-dog
look upon his face. But I warrant ne

porcelain tub make its appearance.

THEIaborers Of the blacksmith Thur
avleff, of Kiev, found a conica1 bomb
and conceived the notion of using it as
an anvil. They knew what the thing
was, but they thought it was not
charged, because they had found it "
ing about freely. To make sure it was
not dangerous, they tried 1T several
times in the fire and it did not explode.
Hereupon they fitted it up as an anvil.
But as soon as they tried to forge a
piece of iron on it, it exploded with
tremendous force, tore off the roof Of
the building and scattered the walls.
Luckily, the explosion tended upward
above the heads of the workingmen and
only three of them we're slightly
wounded by flying fragments.

The only authorized representative
of the Christian religion who possessed

strong efforts We're being made to bring
about an exchange by both the North
and South, and that their efforts would
probably soon be successful. Upon the
strength Of this report we concluded
to let our tunnel remain quiet for
time, thinking that if exchange failed
we could have final recourse to it. The
exchange did fail and a heavy thun-
der shower loosened one Of the timbers
Of which the stcckade was composed,
so that it settled into the shaft, dis

WHEN Bismarck was Prussian dele

he took apartments In the house of a
patrician of that free city. who held
the Prussians in great repugnance; and
when Bismarck applied to him to have a
bell fixed up in his servants room he
answered that that was not in the
agreement, and that if Bismarck wanted
a bell he must get it fixed himself, and
at his own expense. A few days later
a loud report of firearms was heard to
proceed from the delegates room. The
landlord, frightened to death, rushed
up to his lodger's apartments, and
bursting, all out of breath, into Bis

desk before a great pile of documents

a prisoner or bound to penal service in

eight years he worked In Okhotsk as a

The worker who pines for wealth

CARDS the idIeness in which it would
enable him to live as the acme Of tenn
poraI happiness. He has no idea Of
money as a great motive power to be
applied in enterprises that give health
full employment to mind and body. All
that he desires is to live a feather-bed
life-to "Ioaf" luxuriousIy. People
who indulge in such sensuous IOngings
do not know how much more glorious
it is to tear aff1uence from opposing

Utility of purpose than to receive it as
