THE SULTAN AT DINNER.
Eats Alone and His Table Expenses Foot
Up Almost Two Millions "A Year.

Eats Alone and His Table Expenses Foot
Up Almost Two Millions Year.
By far the most extravagant diner in
the world is the sultan of Turkey. His
table expenses foot up to five thousand
dollars day, or one million eight hum
dred and twenty-five Thousand dollars
year 1t is the most expensive table
and household, in all probability, that
any country has ever seen. The old
Romans used to spend vast sums on
single meals, the equivalent of fifty
thousand dollars being a drop in the
bucket when their emperors used to
dine foreign potentates, but the sultan
expends all this money on himself. He
is not a social man and very rarely has
guests or visitors.
He does not even have a dining-room
or dining-hall. Turkish custom among
the higher classes is for servants to
bring the meals to wherever the diners
may be, and in the palace of STEAMBOAT
the menials at the dinner hour first
search out his majesty and then in
long procession bring the banquet,
table and all.
The table is a silver one. and perhaps
the most exquisite table that has ever
been made. 1t precedes the process
sion, borne in upon the shoulders of
lower grade servants. Following came
a long line of jublakiars, who are
cooks assistants. On the heads of
these orientals are large tablets on
which the platters are placed. Such It
perfect balance do the jublal1iars keep
that an accident, the breaking of
dish, has never been known.
The walters (sofadgis) lift the plat
tiers from the tablets and present each
dish to his majesty, bowling low The
dishes are covered and sealed with the
imperial seal, which is put on in the
kitchen by the grand vizier, the idea
being that the sultan may be certain
that his food has not been poisoned or
tempered with.
All at once the dishes are set upon
the table, vegetables, meats, ices and
continues being arranged in front of
his royal highness without any regard
to courses or ordinary dinner regula-
tions. The whole repast is before his
majesty. He runs his eye over the
many viands. Then he picks and
chooses, eating the whole simulta-
neously, a pick here and a bite there, a
mouthful of meat, a spoonful of ice, a
sweet cake and tiny ball of fish.
1t all seems strange to a man who
finishes his soup before he tackles any
thing else, but the sultan seems to en-
JOY it. He is total abstainer and
never has wine set on ths table at any
time At state dinners the people that
get chance to drink the rare vintages
provided are those seated at other than
the imperial board-N. Y. World.

On the prairie, successful antelope
hunting is no child's play. The game
nearly always sees you first, and re-
tires in good order, but on the double
quick, to some high knoll a long mile
away, from which safe distance you
are carefully surveyed by the keenest
of eyes. As you try to steal up within
long rife-range, the band suddenly
glides down the side of the knoll,
seemingly without effort, scurries
across the next flat, and presently
halts on another high point at the end
of another mile. The time was when
antelope had so much curiosity and so
little sense they could be brought up
within gunshot by waving a rag or
ramrod, or wriggling q No. 10 foot in
the air; but that period has gone
by, at least in Montana. We tried it
repeatedly, but found the Pronghorn
was not half the fool he had been rep
resented In the broken bad lands,
where coulees are deep and sharp
ridges numerous, it is an easy matter
to stalk antelope, and to shoot them
also-proyided you are a good shot,
don't get the buck-agae, and can judge
distances reasonably well. William L

MODERATE INDULGENCE.

An Important Phase OF the Temperance
| QuestiOn-Fixing the Responsibility fOs
Ills of Drunkenness.
| The word temperance, in these days,
is coming to signify Austen ton from
Intoxicating drinks--a special, rather
| than its broader and more general and
accurate meaning. 1t is in this moro
| limited sense that we use It.
| There are in the world all shades of
/ thought on the subject, and perhaps it
would be entirely accurate to say that
no two persons hold precisely the same
! opinions about it. Not long since a
very eminent divine went before the
young men of one of our leading insti-
buttons of learning and advocated the
use of wine and beer in moderation.
He denounced as fanatics those who
| advocate the entire exclusion of these
articles from use; but it was notable
that he condemned alcoholic or rdis-
titled liquors in very strong terms.
He said there was a vast difference
between the two, and probably no one
who advocates prohibition or total
abstinence would dispute him on this
| point. But the difference is only in
degree
Beer and wine derive their pleasure
bic and enticing qualities from precise

stimulating qualities, and the So
called social surroundings and devel-
opments which have been connected
with each
These are verify the beginnings of
evil. Without these "inoffensive,"
fashionable, genteel practices of mod
crate indulgence there would be and
could be done of the horrors OF drunk
enness, degradation and misery. With
out the seed there would be no tree. 1t
is the moderate drinker solely who
makes drinking in any way endurable.
1t is the countenance which he gives to
his weaker brother which causes that
brother to go down the way which
leads to countless woe. And even he
should take heed to himself even in
his Wanted strength lest he fall, for
many as strong and proud have sud-

curity and found themselves in the

gate and narrow is the way" If
we seem to be walking just beside

right road as though we were out of
sight of it. There is only the one
way"
Paul reached the true solution of the
! matter when he wrote to the Corin-
| thians concerning the eating of meat,
which had been offered to idols,
and about which there had
been much feeling. Neither if we
eat are we the better, neither if we
eat not are we the worse;" and after
further consideration declared that:
'If meat make my brother to offend,

from the questioning response of Cain:
