THE AMENDED BILL.

The amended" tariff bill was sub-
mitted to the Senate yesterday after.

the finance committee as "committee

over 400 amendments to the bill as it

Aldrich's charge that new bill would
be presented was more than justified.
This latest tariff bill or "amended meas.
ure" as the leaders prefer 10
call it, contains SO many radical
changes that it is impossible TO discuss
them all within the brief limits of an
editorial review. Only few points can
be touched upon. 1t is interesting 10
note the changes, and almost every
change shows concession for vote.
The time has arrived when the Demo
cracy must do something If it is only to
make stiff bluff. Consequently
changes have been made, not from any
principle involved, for the measure does
not represent any principle whatever,
but To win votes.
Concessions are de to members of
the House, especially to those from the
West, by taking number of agricul-
tural products of the free list and re-
storing the House rates. Thus butter.

A WARNING TO WOMEN.

former to exercise extraordinary tact
and caution in negotiating with the
latter.
Here Is young man out West who,
according TO all accounts, was a most
desirable catch but was lost TO the
young woman whom he had at first
ardentiy sought, because the young
woman gigg.ed SO much. AS the young
man subsequently, testified. "she just
giggled all the time and had 10 keep
my face in broad grin to pretend to be

adds that he had to quit TO rest his
face.
IL is OF course the duty of woman to
ma out what man wants and then give

trouble with the young woman

the necessary discrimination TO discover
that the young man didn't like gig ggling
In too liberal quantities. To be sure he
seemed to for she pretended to be inter-
ested in what she said, and kept on a
broad grin accordingly, and from this

the young man was to- blame

false pretenses. There is, however,
nothing sound in such a view, because

always that while woman's duty is to
please man it is the privilege of man TO
pretend only to be pleased, and accord
ingly you can't always be sure when
you hit them right unless you exercise
your best tact and discretion.
The young woman in question is thus
distinctly to blame if she has lost what
she wanted-the young mau. The les

that 1T will be helpful to her in future.
This doesn't necessarily imply that she

Almost Incredible Reports of Turk

REPORT OF AN AMERICAN In ARMENIA
Children Placed in a Row and Shot
Down..
THO US ANDS SACRIFICED

BOSTON, December 13.-The following is
an extract from a letter received in this
city from an American gentleman residing
in Erzeroum, which is in the province of
Sassoun, where the recent Turkish atroci-
ties against Christian Armenians are re-
ported to have occurred. For obvious rea-
sons the names Of the writer and recipient
are withheld:
Last year the Talvorig Armenians re-
sisted the attack of the neighboring Kurds.
and this year the Turkish government sent
detachments of regular soldiers to put
down the Armenians. They were assisted
by the Kurdish Hamedish. The Armenians
were attacked in their mountain Businesses,
and, reduced by the failure of supplies and
ammunition, they were finally unable to
resist longer.
About a score Of villages were obliter-
ated and many people slaughtered A num-
Der of young Armenians were bound, COW
cred with brush and burned alive. Others
pleaded for mercy, but were shot down On
the spot, while others were dispatched
with the sword and bayonet. About one
hundred women were shut up in a church.
Many were outraged to death and the re-
mainder dispatched with the sword. Anoth.
er lot of women were captured as spoils
Of war.
1.-TWO stories are told as to their disposal.
One is that they were carried to Moslern
harems, and enother that they were
slaughtered on refusing to go. Children
were placed in line apparently to see how
many could be killed with one bullet. Many
children were heheaded. Inmates of burn
ing houses were driven back into the flames
at the point Of bayonets they tried to
escape.
Estimates vary from 5000 to 5000 as to
the number massacred. Some estimates
place the number even twice as high. The
massacres happened in August and Sep
TENDER, and were perpetrated by soldiery
under officers of high rank. This gives the
affair a most serious aspect. A Christian
does not enjoy the respect given to street
dogs. and II this massacre 10 passed over
1t will simply be a declaration of the doom
of Armenian Christianity"
