Armcnians will not be satisfied With a.few
promises.
'If the great powers do not interfere
thore will be a wholesale emigration, or
the more radical OF the revolutionary
lcsslers will push things to tho extreme,
and we shall have repetition of the
nameloss atrocS.es which have chilled the
blood OF civilized humanity.
LET it not 10 supposed that the promise
OF Interference by the Christian powers
has had any effect in lesscning the activity
of the revolutionary leadcrsIS On the con-
trary, these leaders were never more active
than at present. as they realize the value
OF the opportunity that has now come in
their way. \
'To such an extent has tho fear of the
evolutionary movement taken hold of
the officials of Turkey that Americans
and Englshmen find 1t almost impossible
to travel in any part Of Armenia however
remote from the vilayet OF Bitlis.
Specimen Case.
'The case of H. Jeknavorian shows the
value of an American passport to nm Ar
menian. Mr. Jeknavorian is now in Tiiis.
instead of being at the bedside of his dying
mother in his native town of Ordou. on
the Turkish coast of tho Black sen. This
man emigrated to America 10 years ago.
and in time became an American citizen.
During the past four years he has been in
the employ OF the Thomson Houston Elcc-
trio company at Boston. Last autumn
he received word that his aged mother
was very III at Ordou, and probably
would not live much longer.
with part Of his savings the young
man bought a phonograph, with few
pieces of music, and set of 10 visit his
mother. He intended to exhibit the phono-
graph as a curiosity. On his arrival in
Constantinope by French steamer from
Marseillcs he went ashore TO obtain q
teskers to allow him to visit Ordou. A
teskere is sort OF road permit issued to
all persons who travel In Turkey.
Diplomats Criticised.
"As soon as the officials discovered that
he was of American birsh they refused to
issue a toskere. He then applied to the
American consul general, Luther Short,
who referred him to the American minis
ter, Mr.. Terrell Mr. Terrell not only re-
fused to help him in any way, but advised
him to go back to America at once, say
ihk thhb WOuiu
not issue teskeres to American citizens of
Armenian birth.
"Mr Jeknavorlan asserts that Mr.. Ter
rell said. 4 shall not go TO the Turkish
government and beg permission for you
to go TO Ordou. l have had enough Of
that. Armenian Americans are coming
to me all the time, and am tired OF ask
ing favorc for them from the Turkish gov
ernment'
The American Armenian then went
to the Greek minister to ask assistance In
procuring teskere. The Greek minister
could do nothing. Us the applicant was
not Greek. Jeknavorian continued his
voyage on the French steamer as far as
Batoum. passing with.l plain sight Of the
place where his mother lay dying. lie is
now making n livelihood by exhibiting
his phonogrart. He has no connection
with the Armenian Revolutionary society,
and asserts that he can prove this by
friends ifrBoston. One hearing his story
Is impressed with It's truth.

faith in his ability to pull the fight off as
advertised.
J. N. McLain. one of Stuart's business
partners, said regarding the prospects of
the Florida Athletic club holding the
fight elsewhere, that everything looked
so rosy TO have it take place as adver-
tised, he was not prepared to make any
statement as to the future doings Of the
club He was thunderssruck when in
formed of the action the legislature had
taken, and could not understand how the
passage of the bill was accomplished.
When asked il the fights would be de-
clared off for good, he said he thought
not; that Stuart WIS determined man.
and having gone thus far, would see the
thing through. Arrangements. he said,
have in minor way been perfected to
transfer the fight to the Indian Territory
or to Mexico. He thought Stuart would
much prefer the former place, but if the
Indian Territory should be barred against
them he would undoubtedly bring the
men together on the other side of the

ANLANTA, Ga, Oct 3.-Major James
c. c. Black, Democrat, defeats Thomas
E. Watson, Populist, for congress in the
Tenth district by a majority of 1911.
The election yesterday was one
of the quietest ever held in
Georgia, Il striking contrast to
the enc held eleven months ago At
that time three prominent men were
killed in the streets of Augusta and pet
ty rows occurred throug hout the several
counties.
Watson claimed that the election was
unfair and Black in Difference to Wat
sons views resigned. The special election
yesterday was honest in every sense
New registration laws were respected
in most counties and the majority for
Black shows that the district is Demo
cratic In a clean ballot.
Watson lost in most of the counties
from his vote of 1893, over 100 votes in
his own county.

MIGHT USE TROOPS.
The Fight VIII Not bs Allowed on Q. S.
r7rJ Ef-Te1--s' Territory -

WASHINGTON, Oct 3.-Attorney Gen
eral Harmon was questioned today on
the prize fight subject. In the opinion
OF the attorney general it would be a
public disgrace for the federal authori
ties TO permit a public exhibition of this
character and it might be positively
stated on his authority that the fight
will not take place in United States ter
Titory.
Although the attorney general would
not disclose his purposes. it is thought 20
be almost certain that if found necessary,
the United States troops would be or
dered out to prevent the fight.
The treaties and laws OF the United
State with the Indians and the five civil
lied tribes are being examined to see
what authority the United States has
One provision says:
"Ihe United States may exclude from the
Indian lands such whites as are not au-
thorized by the laws of both natious to
remain there" and it further pro-
vides that they Ghe Indians)
shall also be protected against inter
ruptions or intrusions from all unauthor-
lied citizens Of the United States who
may attempt to settle upon their lands
or reside in their territory
Under these provisions it is held that
the government can keep out the prize
fighters unless the Indians agree
to their entrance. Whether the
federal government cannot, even if the
Indians consent, prevent the fight is not
quite so clear Some say that the fight
can be brought about without violation
of the law by leasing a part of the In
dian lands. Other legal provisions how
ever, may perhaps enable the government

To Make Tennis Luncheon Effective.

For a tennis luncheon a very effective
center-piece can be made of pile OF
sandwiches cut in the shape of a
racquet. This can be done more easily
than seems possible at first thought.
Cut pattern in cardboard the aize de-
sired. Make it as long as the slices of
bread are wide, and then by turning it
end to end two sandwiches can be cut
with very little waste. OF course the
two slices of bread should be cut, but
tered, and pressed firmly together be-
fore being cut into the shape of the
racquet. Then press a baby olive firm
" into the middle of the large end, and
there you have a clever representation
of raquet and ball, as good to look at
as to eat.
