Horrors at Sea.
LONDON, Sept 90. - Advices from
Hiogo state that the Turkish man-of-
war Ertogroul has foundered at sea, and
that 500 of her crew were drowned. Os-
man Pacha, whose victory over the
Russians at Plevna gave him . high
rank as fighting General, was on
board and was lost. He had been on an
official visit to Japan, having been in
trusted with special mission from the
Sultan to the Mikado.
IOsman Pasha was the best soldier in the
Turkish army, and one OF the few Generals
honored with the title OF 'ghazi," or con.
queror, by the present Sultan, who real
~ deserved 1t. He was an Arab, and was born
at Tokat. in Asia Minor. In 1892. He en-.
tered the army as Q Lieutenant, and at
the close OF the Crimenn war was made o Cap
tam in the Imperial Guard. During the struggle
between Servia and Turkey which preceded
the last Russo-Turkish war he com
manded the Widin and was mainly
instrumental in bringing about the utter
defeat OF the Ecrvians under the Russian
General TchernaiefY. But the feat which gave
him rank among great soldiers was his defense

Aside from his connivance with the
rorating frauds, there was nothing
about Tanners administration of the
Pension Office worse than Commissioner
Raum's allowing his son John to solicit
pension business on the strength of the
latter's relationship to the head Of the
bureau. Johns circulars, which he is
scattering over the West are getting
into the papers, and it appears that he
takes pains in all Of them to say that
he ''is the son of Green b. Rauu, the
prcseLt Commissioner Of Pensions, and

Naturally this appeals powerfully to
soldiers, particularly invited in these

A DIFFICULTY experienced in the use
OF oil in storm at sea Is that the wind
blows it to leeward and the effect is lost.
This difficulty is now overcome by a
new device, consisting of a mortar and
bomb. The latter is globular shell of
cast-iron filled with oil. On the side is
an aperture closed by hinged cover.
The shell is SO weighted that as it
sinks the aperture is uppermost and the
cover is lifted by the pressure of the
oil upon it. Thus the oil is released
beneath the surface and rises through
the waves, producing effectual results
