Giving the sultan His Titles.

Whenever the name of the sultan is
mentioned, it is after the manner of the
following, which I translate literally
from Turkish paper before me:
Today our paper reaches the thirteenth
year of its existence, and we celebrate
this anniversary in the reign of the fin
est pearl of the age, and the esteemed
center of the universe, at whose grand
portal stand the camels of justice and
mercy, and to whom the eyes of the
kings and the people in the west have
been drawn, the rulers there finding an
example Of political proves and the
classes model of mercy and kindness.
It is our lord and master. the sultan
of the two shores and the high king
(Khakan) of the two seas, the crown
of ages and the pride of all countries,
the greatest of all oaliphs, the shadow
Of God on earth, the successor of the
apostle of the Lord of the universe, the
victorious conqueror (Al-Ghiz), Sultan
Abdul Hamid Khan. May God protect
his kingdom and place his glory above
the sun and moon, and may the Lord
supply al the world with the goodness
which proceeds from his holy majesty's
good intentions. Nineteenth Century.

Fact That May Explain Some Bank
Declarations.
''When the undersigned graduated
from college at the age of 90 acting
on the advice of parent, he spent a
year in one of the largest, richest
and most successful of the New York
national banks; he was engaged at
his duties from $50 to daily-several
times each month until midnight, or
near midnight; he was away from the
bank for several hours daily, his
duties being largely out of doors and
at distance; he frequently had the
sole custody of sums of money mot
checks, but greenbacks and negoti-
able bills) reaching up to the millions
of dollars-on one occasion more than
SIS, 900, 900.
He was under nolbonds whatever,
and his salary was the munifcent sum
of $25 per month, with reduction of
$12. so for his two weeks vacation
the only holiday of any kind in one
year of by far the hardest and mos
disagreeable work he has done.
Furthermore there were in that bank
men doing substantially the same
work and trusted to the same extent,
who had been there for years, who
were paid $500 a year, or less. How
these men were to dress well and sup
port their families in the expensive
city Of New York was not explained;
how they did SO never could see."

all his requirements. Death must be
painless and instantaneous, of course,
but must act at a different moment
from that at which his victim took
the decisive action which would make
the fate certain and Interchangeable.
He drew out plan, rapidly making
rough sketches of the mechanical de-
tails on the back of Deborah's fatal
letter.
Then he went down to his forge on
the floor below and worked hard at
the instrument he had invented.
Ralph Carbon was proud of his work.
The invention was IN the form of g
dynamite bomb, which would explode
by the slow action of an acid eating
through q barrier of cement. One
of his past failures had left
him with the dynamite on his
hands. It was inclosed in carefully
welded iron case, Joined strongly, so
that once the case was closed it could
only be opened by the exercise of
considerable force. It was connected
as strongly to an iron chain, which
the inventor fastened around his
waist, joining the two ends with a
Yale paddock. When he had locked
it he laid the key on his anvil, and
with stroke of his hammer bent it
out of shape.
''Now," he said to him self, almost
triumphantly, when it was done,
coward or no coward, IN about half
an hour must die
He was glad Tat the affair va set

he was always III
venting, was Gardon; always spend
ing days and nights in the manufac-
ture of some wonderful machine or
other which was to revolutionize the
world and make him famous, only to
find after all his labor some irremedi-
able flaw in his plan which rendered
the completion of the machine an inn
possibility, or prevented it working.
He gazed around him on the gaunt
skeletons in wood and brass of past
hopes, and clenched his hands fercely.
"a failurel Everything in my life
is a miserable failureT' he cried aloud
as he paced the floor.
It was not t he breakdown of an or
binary invention, however, that wrung
the bitter words from him. He had
grown accustomed to waking in the
morning with an idea worth millions
in his head, and going to bed at night
with the knowledge that it was not
worth 1000, 900 match-st1clzs; and
had become quite philosophical over
the failure of his plans for money
making. But this time it was a diff
ferent arrangement that had broken
down, an arrangement by which the
inventor hoped to make himself a
home and children; and the main
spring in the shape of Deborah Dene,
the woman he loved, had failed him.
In his clenched hand he held the let
ter she had sent him, abruptly an
nouncing that she wished to break of
their engagement
There was a revolver lying on the
inventors bench, which had thrice
had its bright barrel pointed towar d
his forehead, but three times the
mans purpose had failed him at the
decisive moment
The fact of his cowardice led to the
mans irritation against himself.

pulled the trigger. There was q
click, but nothing more; he had for
gotten. after all, to load the thing.
He had failed once more to kill

experienced had made it impossible tc
repeat the attempt. He must think
of something, he told himself which
would make the last act easier for
him. He was determined on suicide,
and had committed himself by inform
ing Deborah of his intentions; but
when the single movement of a fin
ger was in moment TO make all the

his physical courage deserted him, and
his finger became powerless- He
must prepare some plan for killing
himself in which the exact moment o.
his death would be decided by chance
or the action of machinery.
The idea pleased him by suggesting
the need of invention, need which
his mind was always ready to meet
and he set himself, with melancholy
pleasure, to think out the details OF
a killing machine which should fulfil

Antics of a Hat.

A man was walking along the avenue
when sudden scurry of March wind took
off his hat and whirled it against the back
of a woman who was crossing the street
"You villain" she shrieked How
dare you strike me like that?"
Then she turned and saw what 1t was
and hurried along while the hat rose in
the air, and coming down settled on tho
face of dray horse, and the owner Of tho
Eighty tile started to get it.
He was within two feet Of the horse
when that animal bolted, and the hat
scared over to the soldiers monument,
and he gave up the chase, but beokoned to
small boy, at the same time making
suggestive motions toward his pocket
The boy acted on the hint and soon had
the hat and returned it to it's owner.
"Thanks, my little fellow" said the
man. ''Here is something for your trou-
BILE, !" and he handed him a penny.
Keep it yourself, Gully" said the boy.
II may be small, but l amt SO small as
to take that, and he ran eff whistling.-
