Special to the GAZnTre:-
This has been gala day for inhab-
itants of the Ottoman Empire. Sew
enteen years ago Abdul Hamed Kahn
Gagi I.took his seat on the throne. To
day was his birthday and the Exposi-
ton set it apart for Turks, and they
made the most of it. Before witness
ing the parade and ceremonies, I was
kindly invited to the Turkish theatre
where marriage ceremony was being
enacted. Before the stage stands a
promptor, who also explains to the
audience the scenes on the stage.
Scene opens with Turk lying on
the floor to all appearances very i'll His
father enters and is greatly alarmed
at his appearance. He hastens for a
doctor, while he is gone the young
man recites in sing song manner his
love for maiden, but fears to tell his
father. Upon the appearance of the
doctor, he feels his pulse and says the
young man is in love. The father at
once goes for the girl. and the Turk
rises from the bed and carries it off
the stage. The next scene is very
beautiful, weird music is heard. Now

who precede the bride. She is very
pretty, long black hair, with jewels
twined in and out through the braids,
and jet black eyes. She walks on stills
about foot high. Then enter bevy
of maidens singing wedding song
and beating tambourines. Now a
great commotion is heard and the
bride rises from her throne. The
groom enters, gaily dressed, and re-
ceives the bride. The father of the
groom furnishes entertainment for the
guests, soldiers enter and go through
sword drill, yelling at the top of their
voices, next come the musicians, who
play on queer looking instruments.
and the music,lf it can be called such,
soon becomes very tiresome. Now enter
dancing girls, who are soon joined by
the bride. After they leave, the groom
leads stately dance followed by his
attendants. The guests on being seat
ed, are presented with CONNECTIONS.
Two dervishes appear and ask aims
of the bride and groom. They are re-
ferred to the father, who settles all the
bills. The ceremony for the day is
now over, but for seven days dancing
is kept up, called the dances of ma
tions. A maiden enters dressed in
bright red and covered with spangles.
She commences light tripping dance,
thsn goes through bodily contortions,
which are quite disgusting. The music
now assumes livelier air and she

AMERICAN CHILDREN,
And the Bright Light in Which One Eng
lishman Sees Them.

And the Bright Light in Which One Eng
Iishman Sees Them.
Strictly speaking, says an English
man recently returned to that country
from visit to America, there is no
such being as an American baby!
There can be no manner of doubt, he
continues, that very young infants
there possess intelligence to an extra
ordinary degree.
The average American mother is most
sincerely anxious to train her children
we'll; and there is on their behalf con-
slant tendency for dwellers in cities to
take refuge in the fresh air Nf the beau
tiful and often distant suburbs which
are now springing up everywhere, 1t
is true that the first laws of health are
often lamentably neglected in the rear
ing Of children, but If the American
mother is still behind the English in
this respect, she certainly carries away
the palm in the matter of personal de-
votion and self-sacrificing care. No
expenditure of time or trouble seems
too great; she is absolutely regardless
of self and does for her children much
that we should relegate to hirelinRs.
She is, If possible, too unselfish, and
| the consequence is that the child is apt
to become exact,ng. But it is precisely
this peculiar trait that runs through all
American society-it is characteristic
OF men no less than of women. Hus-
bands slave for their wives, regardless
of all recreation, even in the most
| heated days of summer, while the wives
| in their turn lavish all their thought and
care upon the little ones.
With few exceptions the children
both of rich and poor, attend the public
schools, and as boys and girls pursue
their studies in the same class room
they grow up together In friendly
fashion, and quite young girls have {
circle of many friends on their visiting
list whom they invite to literary meet
ings and dances and sleigh parties
without any maternal Intervention
! whatsoever.
In no other country are so many girls
at college. The desire for knowledge
very early evinces itself, and the mo
ment the schoolbell rings boys and girl
rush from the breakfast table and ar
rive breathless at the schoolhous
probably twenty minutes before tn
doors are opened. Learning is made
pleasure rather than task; self-confl
dence Is encouraged by frequent publ
recitations, and whatever the America
public school may fail TO do, II Ger
tainly produces race of men and won
en- richly endowed with the power @
expressing their thoughts in varied an
well-ehosen language.

A Gain in the Cash Balance of tht
Treasury for the Month.

A Gain in the Cash Balance of the
Treasury for the Month.
WASHINGTON, March 2S The treasury
statements promise TO show a slight gain in
the cash balance as the result Of the first
month of Secretary Carlisles management.
The customs receipts continue to increase
in spite of the possibility Of tariff char Res,
and will be nearly 100000 larger this
month than in March, 1892. The total for
the year will be considerably in excess of
5000, coo 900, and much more than was esti-
mated by Secretary Foster when he was
questioned by the ways and means COM
mittee.
The demands for small currency have
been greater this spring than is
usual at this season Of the year, but they
have all been met and the currency in the
treasury is more plentiful than for many
months. This Is due in part to the fact that
currency has taken the place of gold wlthH
drawn for export, but Secretary Carlisle is
forcing the gold up toward $10S 0O0, 900 and
postponing the necessity for an issue of
bonds.
If the pension drafts can be cut down
there ls little doubt that the treasury can
peg along until autumn without any greater
embarrassment than it has already suffered.
The subject of pension reform has not been
attacked In earnest by President Cleveland
and Secretary Hoke Smith, but it will be
taken up as soon as the proper mar can be
found for commissioner Of pensions and an
effort made to stop the issue of certificates
except In deserving cases.

PARIS. March '2S.-Otto Brandes, the
Paris correspondent OF the Bertiner Tag
ebldtt, who was ordered from the country
on suspicion OF having been the author of
an article charging President Carnob with
receiving Panama money, went 10 the police
bureau this morning and gave notice that
he would start for Germany at once.
His house at Asnisres, sub
urb OF Paris, had already been
covered with insulting placards, and when
he left It with Mrs. Brandes a crowd OF
men and boys began hooting and groaninR
at him. The crowd followed Mr. and Mrs.
Brandes TO their train without an effort
from the police to drive them back.
Shortly afterward. Mr.. Braudes dangh-
ters left the house to meet their
parents in the city. The young
women were surrounded by forty men
and boys. were hustled about and before
they could get TO the train we're struck re-
peatedly with sticks and Jumps of dirt.
One of the daughters received severe cut
on the head and required the services OF
Il physician before che could leave the city.
The government made no effort 10 protect
the Brandes family from such abuses, but
even allowed them to travel without the
usual escort of gendarmes.

FREE GOLD MORE PLENTIFUL.

Only 100000 Taken for Export and
over $7,OOO,OOO on Hand.
WASHINGTON. March 28.-The gold ex-
ported from New York to-day amounted to
$500, 900, and all of it was taken from the
sub treasury. The loss of so small an
amount does not even cause comment in
treasury circles, as the free gold at the
command of the treasurer now aggregates
more than $7,000,00O, and the treasury is
gaining gold each day In its ordinary busi-
ness transactions. The offers in exchange
for small notes also continue very
heavy with the opening of the
spring trade. The secretary Is 40
cepting these as rapidly as possible,
selecting, however, those that are most ad-
vantageous. At present there is not the
slightest doubt In official circles that within
a few months the gold balance will be in-
creased to Sll5 000, 900 or Sl5, 900, 900 of free
gold, sufficient for all ordinary purposes.
