DOES NOT LIKE CEREMONY.

The Sultan of Turkey Receives Visitors in
Simple Style and Lights Their Cigarettes.
The correspondent of an English pa
per was recently accorded an interview
by the sultan of Turkey, and was sur
prised at the noticeable lack of cere-
mony with which he was received.
When the newspaper man entered the
royal presence he found his majesty
standing ready to receive him. The
descendant of Mahomet II. and of
Selim had no rich turbans, no jeweled
robes, no ornaments, nothing that dis
tinguishes princes from ordinary peo-
pie in the east, except the true orna-
ments of the noble and well born, po-
lite bearing and refined expression.
He appeared a perfect European
prince. if anything politer and simpler
than ordinary men. His majesty has
even cast off the aigrette which his
predecessors wore with the fez. There
We're no intricate ceremonies to be
gone through as at the reception of the
great mogul or at other eastern courts.
There were no attendants present as
are invariably to be seen in the private
rooms of eastern princes. Sentiment
and tradition says the correspon-
dent, compelled me to do homage to
the caliph like an oriental, with a
bow. AS soon as the formality was
gone through his majesty shook hands,
took his seat and desired me to be
seated. The sultan was dressed plain
ly, wearing no orders, stars or decora-
tions of any kind. He is very fair, has
a round head plentifully covered with
grizzly gray hair, and possesses strik-
ing features" The interview was of
the most chatty and friendly charac-
ter, the sultan showing marked ac-
quaintance with literature, especially
that of the east, and his information
on general subjects is extensive.
When the correspondent arose to take
his leave the Turkish ruler put his
hand on the visitors head and gave
him by that act the caliphal blessing.
With the multifarious duties that
he has to perform his majesty prays,
according to the Mohammedan Gus
tom, five times day with the regular
| ity of clock. He fasts for thirty
days during the month of the Rama
| dhan. He abstains from all kinds of
alcoholic beverages and from gamb-
ling. He pa atronizes religious and
moral institutions not only among his
own people but among all the Moham-
medans of the world. Moreover, he
does not confine his charity to the poor
and needy of his own religion, but, ac-
cording to the dictates of the Koran,
he helps the deserving irrespective of
their religious beliefs. He allows toll
Grafton to the highest degree, and is
himself anything but a bigot. He
| is a great patron of learning of all
| kinds.

Some Instances of the Queer Names Given

1t is nothing new that the colored

The New York Herald says editorially: /:
tIf an election were held now the dem
ocrats would be swept from power by a
tidal wave of popular indignation such
as the country has not seen for twenty
years" The Herald need not be afraid
that the intensity of the wave will be
diminished by waiting two years longer.
1t will be rather greater. It will take a
little more than one years experience to
change some of the old "wheel- horses"
though they are coming home already
in very satisfactory manner.

The Scandinavian system of regulating
the liquor traffic, known as the
Gothenburg system, is the next plan
that will be vigorously attempted in the
United States Prohibition and high
license have been tried in different
sections of the country, and for brief
periods, without finally solving the
liquor Question. Gothenburg's system
is now likely to be tried, first per-
haps in the state of Massachusetts.
This system eliminates the possibility of
personal profit from the sale of liquor
and throws many restrictions around it.
The income is used for various public
purposes, and the sale of liquor is under
the direct supervision of responsible
men of high character. Social re-
formers in every part of the coun-
try are giving it close study with
reference to our American condi-
tions. An ardent believer in his
system is DIR. E. R. L. Gould, who is
one of our foremost students of social
subjects, and who last year went to Nor
way to make personal study of this
system. DIR. Gould writes in the March
number of The Forum definite explain
alton of how it would work when applied
to American conditions.

A Wonderful. runnels-

The cities of Worsley and st. Helens,
in north. England, are sixteen miles
apart, yet they are connected by the
most wonderful canal in the world. A
tunnel has been cut through the great
vein of coal which underlies the whole
of Lancashire, and this, filed with
water from the drainage trenches of
that great system of mines, makes a
remarkable underground canal; in
which the water is constantly five. feet
deep. This canal is provided with a
regular system of coal boats, which are
constantly moving thousands of tons
of the bituminous fuel between the
two cities. ------

The beginning of MANHOOD in china.


When one sees lad in China with
his head shaved one may be sure that,
however boylilke he may look, he has
put aside all the things of youth and
become man. In fact, this event
is celebrated in the household with
great solemnity, for entrance upon
manhood is grave matter for the
boys of the fowery land. Invitations
are sent to the friends and relatives to
family gathering, and each is expect
ed to bring a present-in money for
choice-for the hero of the hour. The
boy himself is dressed in fine silk
robes and perfumed with spices. When
everyone has arrived the father makes
a speech in honor of the occasion, the
presents are given and then a Chinese
priest shaves the boys head to prepare
the way for the pigtail, which marks

PARALLEL CASES.

The Southern Pacific Company reiter-
ates through Mr.. II. E. Huntington that
the maintenance of the right to TunPullman
cars is based on a principle. In Mr..
Huntington's first letter he presented sew
eral So called parallel cases showing how
if the company yielded on the Pullman
car issue it would be compelled to yield in
other and more important matters. But
the cases which Mr.. Huntington called
parallel were only similar. A correspond
ent Of the Bulletin has pointed out the
difference between the Pullman car case
and a Baldwin locomotive case. The Pull
man car is source of revenue only when
it is running, while the locomotive becomes
the abstract property of the company pur-
chasing it, and is not, therefore, a source
of revenue to the builders. AS the object
of the strikers was TO cut off the revenue
derived from the Pullman cars by the
Pullman Car Company, this one difference
is fatal to Mr.. Runtington's series Of par
allel cases. 1t was not the car itself the
Railway Union struck at, but the cars as a
source of revenue to the Pullman CON-
pany. And yet it is with such hair-trigger
arguments as this that the local manager
defended the railroad policy which has
temporarily paralyzed the industries of
this State. Whatever may be the outcome
OF the present contest, the Southern Pacific
Company has demonstrated its unftness
to perform the service Of common carrier,
except, possibly. In competition with
competing system under public control.

KEEP COOL,

The American Railway Union gained
the sympathy Of the people by the mod
GRAFTON of its methods. TIE order every
where was to abstain from violence. The
members had a right to stop work and
TO persuade others to stop. Tney nigh
also use their powers Of persuasion on
non-union men who were offered their
places. But the justice of their cause
does not warrant a resort to vio-
lence. The laws of the land must be re-
spected. A collision with the authorities
can have out one result. The men who
stood Dy the union in their peaceful con-
test would turn against it if other than
peaceful methods should be adopted.
There is point IN contentious of this ma
ture at which the merits of a cause are lost
sight Of.
The great body of the American people
hold that there is no evil that may not be
peacefully redressed. By all such al ap-
peal TO force Is considered unjustifiable.
Lawlessness Is more to be dreaded than
such oppression as can exist while the
ballot-box is free. The men who disre-
gard the counsels that insist upon the alb
solute necessity Of conducting the contest
within the limits of law are a source of
weakness to the cause. They divert atten-
tion from the original cause of the dispute
to the possibilities which may result from
Iawless action. If the union cannot win
by peaceful means it cannot win at all.
The questions involved will have to be
settled at the ballot-box. No American
citizen should ever forget that remedy
for all wrongs lies in the franchise.

men, the Pullman car service on the South
