as bad as represented The fsot that the

Death in a Deyiled Grab.

Death often knocks at LIES doors clothed In a

Among other tempting deicacies which ne had
selected was deviled crab He had eaten soarce-
ly quarter OF 1t when he discovered that small
particle Of tho she'll had lodged in his throat. All
efforts to dislodge 1t proved fruitlesa. Although
tho irritation was uncomfortable the pain was
slight, and at the time Mr.. Adams had no thought
but that the obstacle would soon disappear. Days
passed and tho irritation remsined. A month
elapsed, and Mr.. Adams's friend, becoming alarm
ed at his hacking cough and tho inf.med APP oar
ance of his throat, advised him to consult phys
ician. Upon examination the doctor found that
the pieca CT she'll was still f'my imbedded In the
back of the throat. Every effort made to extract
it proved unavsilng The pain, which st first
was SCARCELY noticeable, gradually developed Into
the most acute agony. at the end OF the sixth
week Mr.. Adams, who had always been regarded
as perfect specimen Of physical manhood was
reduced to nero shadow Of his former SELF just
two months from the fsteful night he died, suffer

lions from Russian eli ,zsDs sEd nsoJ a. mes-
chant ships, but capable OF being turned at

to the Black sea fact. Through the per-
mesi0n given by the Sutton to allow IN
armed Russian vessels TO pass from tpe

with worknen ostensibly intended 10 be

very important one. All these are indi-
cations OF the purpose OF Russis to sWoop
down On ConstsntiDople whenever the time
seems opportuoe before the allied powers
can interfere. The demand which che has

Turkey in allowing the Russian volunteer fleet to
pass tho Dardanelles, on the plea that they were
not men-of-wsr in the sense that such ships were
understood in the prohibltory clause OF the treaty
of Berlin, has created considerable excitement in
Austria and England, as the powers most deeply
concerned in those insidious movements OF Russia
that threaten not only the existence of Turkey
in Europe, but the Independence Of Roumsnis
and Bulgaria. Whether tho landing of officers
and sesmen from British ships as SIgri, On the
Island of Mtylene, and within easy stance ofthe
