POWERS ARE DOING 1T.
Parties to Berlin Treaty Done want A isaer-

Parties to Berlin Treaty DOn't want Amer
lea Concerned in Armenian Affairs.
WAsHINGTON. Dec 22.-It is minated
in diplomatic circles here that the Turk-
ish government is being rather unjus1ly
criticised Tor interpreting obstacles to the
pursuit Of inquiry by United States
Consul Jewett to the Armenian outrages
and that as matter OF fact the Porte is
following this line OF action under the
pressure Of one or more great Europe
an powers which have managed TO keep
Ia the back ground up to this date.
The reasons assigned for this state of
affairs relate to The very foundations Of
European politics. The remainder of
the powers Of Europe which were Ear
ties 70 the Berlin treaty whereby the
welfare Of the Christians IN Armenia was
guaranteed, are at present such that
any attempt at intervention in their be-
half would be likely to lead to great
friction and in the end even TO a war
Therefore il is extremely desirable that
the commission which viii investigate
Armenian affairs should minimize the
disturbances to a point where q simple
remembrance to the Porte would be suf-
hcient without a recourse to the armed
demonstration which would surely be
required by united public opinion of
the civilized world were all Of
the facts disclosed in their nakedness
With commission composed Of com
PLEASANT members appointed by inter-
ested nations, this may be easily man
aged. but with attachment in the
shape Of an American consul, who viii
not be IN any degree ameuahle to any
pressure which would be brought to bear
by the other com missiouars and
who viii be sure also to tell the exact
truth, the work Of the comm ission would
come to naught if if ia the slightest
degree c0ntiicted with the findings Of
the independent American investigator.
which would carry conviction to the pub
lie because Of his assured impartiality.

This should be done in Justice to the

civilized Men T IKE to TObsccO as u Level
Above the Lower Animals.
In the opinion OF about four in every
five men the essential difference be-.
tween man and the inferior animals Is
that man smokes tobacco, sdys tho New
York Advertiser. Occasionally u
prccOcious monkey has been taught to
drink beer and smoke a pipe-"Old
Tom in the London Zoo, for instance
but this only emphasizes the eX.
elusive humanness OF smoking. The
monkey Is nearest kin to man, and
Is In full progress toward the human
state. As tho ultra temperance
lecturers affirm, "A dog wOuldn I smoke
the vile weed" No other animal than
superior man and tho anthrOpoid ape
will smoke. Perhaps In the civilized
white world one man In five is the vic.
tim OF some defect that disqualifes
him for smoking. The defect may DO
q tendency to cancerous growth or 1t
may be wife or m0ther-in.law. The
remaining four are In the full enjoy.
ment OF all their faculties and the
right to pursue happiness through a
cloud of tobacco smoke.
Lack OF opportunity to smoke is,
without doubt, the most affective evil
under which majority OF mon suffer.
A large proportion OF mon are en-.
ployed In offices, stores and shops
where rules against smoking are
rigidly enforced. This is entirely
proper. No superior smoker. ever
smokes while working. To do that Ia
to debase the luxury and to take OIL
the keen edge of the pleasure. 1t Ia
intemperance and dissipation. The
most expert wine testers never drink
to excess. but find that In moderation
only does the palate retain Its power
to detect the delicate flavor. So with
smoking. At night, after q few pipes

dozen with some violence to stimulate

pleasure goes with moderation. To
smoke after m ,al Is the imperative
demand OF the whole system. Not tC
DO able to do this is to incur endless
disorders OF the nervous system, the
stomach and entire dige stive ap
paratus, and sometimes to invite pro
gressive decay Of the mental faculties,
There Ia no better preparation for 4
days work for the smoker than pipe
