REFORMS IN ARMENIA
Turkish Government Makes a New Reply t.
the Powers

TIE POWERS
CONSTANTINOPLE, June 1S.--The
Turkish government has made fresh
reply to the note Of the powers outlining
the reforms insisted upon for Armenia.
The porte accepts the principle OF the
proposed reforms. but requests that sew
eral points be discussed before any action
is taken. The Turkish government ex-
presses the hope that the sutan's soyer-.
eign right will not be preiudiced.
The impression which prevails here is
that this last reply is tantamount to re-
fusal and it is feared the powers vii
adopt more:urgent means to enforce their
demands. The British Mediterranean
squadron which arrived at Beyrouth Jtlne
list, has sailed for Tripoli. Reinforce.
ments OF Russian troops have been sent
to the frontier in the vicinity of Arm enia
in order TO prevent the passage of mar
auders and supplies OF arms and ammu-
milton.

Are most competent to fully appreciate the
purity, sweetness, and delicacy of CUTlCURA
SOAP, and to discover new uses for it daily.
For annoying irrtations, chafngs, and ex-
coriations of the skin and mucous membrane or
too free or offensive perspiration it has proved
most grateful.
In the preparation of curative washes, solu-
tions, etc, it is most valuable; possessing, by
means of its combination with CUTIcURA,
peculiarly purifying, cleansing, and soothing
properties. 1t is thus enabled to heal mucous
irritations, the cause of many annoying and
facilitating weaknesses, while it imparts
strength to the membrane.
CUTICURA SOAP possesses antiseptic prop
critics and is capable of destroying microscopic
life IA many forms.
Like all others of the CuTIcURA REMEDIES the
CUTIcURA SOAP appeals to the refined and Gull

How A Great Story Was
Written.
Written.

The history of any great and sue
cessfuI undertaking is always inter-
esting, therefore at the risk Of being
accused of violating personal coufi-
dence, we tell our readers Of the
origin of a famous story of the late
war. The publishers Of the Chicago
Ledger wanted a story which, be-
sides being Of great merit, should
wildly describe the thrilling events
Of the battle Of Gettysburg and the
siege of Richmond. One author af-
ter another failed in the work, and
at last the famous St. George Rath.
burne was approached on the SUBJ
ject. He demanded a fabulous price
for the work, but it was paid, and
the story was actually written to
order. 1t is however, printed under
the pen name Of Hugh Allen" 1t
is declared by critics, who have been
shown the advance sheets, to be the
best story of the war ever written.
The first instalment of it appeared
in No. 3 Vol. xiii of the Ledger,
and at once attracted the greatest
attention. A private letter from
the editor informs US that in order
to reach all class of people, the pub.
fishers of the Ledger will mail the
opening chapters of the story free of
charge to all who sepd in their
names at once. The Ledger is a
great paper, and each week gives
story meter to make a great book.
