SIXTY THOUSAND
Sent Against Armenians by
the Government.
Mosl Horrible Atrocities Practice d by
turks on Their Victims.

LONDON, Dec. 20--The Anglo Armenian
association has letter from a correspond
ent at Aleppo, Asiatic Turkey, which
states that the archbishop of Marasch who
was confined In the Aleppo Jail, has dis
appeared, and the Armcnians fear that he
has been hanged. The British consul at
Aleppo has made efforts TO discover his
whereabouts. but has been unsuccessful.
Tho bishop of Hadjin and the arch
bishop of Zeitoun have been condemned 20
death. They long havo been victims OF
insult and outrage by the Turkish Off
Gals Father Gavork Of Marasch Is also
under sentence Of death Sister Eliza.
beth and 25 other prisoners from Zeitoun
are still retained in jail, although their
sentence OF three years Imprisonment has
passed.
The church at Beylan has been closed,
and it's priest and 10 notablos OF Beylan
are confined in tho Aleppo prison. Much
hostility still exists between the Moham-
medans and Armenians.
The letter says that the Turkish garrl-
son at Erzeroum. Irisa, Van, Tigranocerta,
Babert and Moosh, altogether about 60
600 men, were sent against the Armenians.
The commanders of these troops an
nounccd to tho inhabitants OF the villages:
"We arc ordered to put you to the sword
for openly defying the government"
The attack began on Aug. Is. The
Turks were repulsed in the first instance.
The
Massacres Began Sept. b.
Those Armenians who submitted uncon.
ditionally were bound to stakes and then
their limbs were cut off with saws In
other cases the victims were disemboweled
and their eyes gouged out. Children were
thrown into burning oil, and women were
tortured and burned TO death. The troops
plundercd and burned the churches.
Among those who fell victims to the saw
agcry of the soldiery were 40 priests, who
were brutally massacred.
The British consul at Erzeroum was
prevented from going to the scenes of the
atrocities on the ground that IL was not
safe for any Armenian, he being an Ar
menian, TO approach the places where tho
trouble had occurred. This did not deter
him from making an attempt TO learn the
truth, burt as he was trying to approach
one of the devastated villages he was ar
rested.
Among thosc who witnessed the utr0cf-
ties was a Spaniard named Ximenes.
The Turkish authorities approached him
and offered him large bribes to induce him
to deny In the English papers the truth Of
the reports OF outrages. They also sought
TO bribe him to TO go England for the pur-
pose of delivering lectures on Armenia, in
which he was TO dwell upon the con-
tented condition OF the Armenians.
Senior Ximenes rejected the offers made TO
him

Where Science ends and Common Sense
should rule. Persons OF sedentary habits
are liable to indigestion or dyspepsia.
These, in turn, will bring on nervous dis
orders, kidney complaints, constipation,
etc. This is especially the case with mer-
chants, students and scientists. They
will give you the exact dimensions of
Jupiter. the distance from Saturn to the

tell themselves what will cure this train
of disorders.
For ailments resulting from sedentsry

unanimously recommend the genuine
