for the recent rioting there. According
70 statomonts made IN Armenian circles,
about 800 Axmenians were killed during
th3 hgIitiik It Bitlis with the Turks. The
loss Of the latter II said TO be tridlne.
Advices from Moosh say that the leading
Armenians Of that locality have been
comforting with the representative Turks
Of that city and nei6hborhood ~ to the
means to be adopted in order to prevent
the outbreak there Of disorders similar
to those which have occurred recently In
different parts of Armenia, and which
have resulted In 30 much bloodshed. 1t IL
added that the Turks stipulated that the
American missionaries who are distrib-
uting relief to the suffering people Of
Sassun withdraw from there In three
days; otherwise, the Turkish notabilities
claim, they fear there will be massa-
ere such as has just occurred at Bitlis.
In view of the critical situation of AFFAIRS
outlined above, the United States Am
bassador, Alexander Terrell, has advised
the American missionaries to- withdraw
temporarily from Sassun. At the same
time Mr., Terrell has notified the Turkish
Government that the United States will
hold II responsible for the lives OF the
American missionaries.

Threat for Child Labor.

The Chicago Times Herald says:
"With a understanding contract form,
confined in the limits of 300 words, the
Illinois Steel Company is seeking to cast
It's hundreds of minor employees into in
dustrial slavery, and parents are shrink
ing, some of them rebelling and others
surrendering to unwilling obedience. BY
the terms of the contract, the father or
mother 81 any minor working In the
mills and foundries of the steel company
binds himself or herself to relinquish all
rights over the services of the child and
surrender all rights before the law to sue
for and recover damages from the com
pany for the loss of such child's services
through injury or death in the mills. And
such is the ironclad provision of this
document that this exemption from dam
age Is made binding, even though the
manning or death is directly traceable
to the criminal negligence of the company
or its employees. The language of the
blank contract is plain. Moreover there
is force placed back of it that is driv-
ing many parents to acceptance of its
provisions. That force is the company s
direct threat to discharge all minors
whose fathers and mothers refuse to put
their names to the paper. Poverty and
hunger ut times are the compelling power
that traces signatures upon such docu-
ments."

In Tennyson's Shoes.

Great Britain heard with surprise Mon
day the report that Alfred Austin has
been chosen poet loureate. The Book
man, n recognized literary authority of
the kingdom, makes the positive an
nouncement of the appointment in it's
November number. Austin's name has
scarcely been mentioned in the discussion
of the probable successor of Lord Tenny-
son, hence the sensation attendant upon
his reported appointment. If it be true
that the influence that swept aside Swim
burne and Dobson in favor of William
Ernest Henley has been overthrown in
favor of the poet, critic and journalist,
there will be few to mourn. The appoint
ment will be popular. Never great man
In the literary field, Austin has still en-
deared himself to the English people by
his nearness to them. ,

Awful Treatment Of Prisoners by a
Mussulsman Mob.
:. Constantinople dispatch: Another ter
rible massacre of Armenians Is reported
to have occurred in the Baiburt district,
between Erzeroum and Trebizond. A
mob of about 500 Mussuimans and Laxes.
the great majority of whom were armed
with Martini Henry rifles, made an at
tack upon the Armenians inhabiting sew
eral villages of that vicinity, and set fire
to their houses and schools. As the Ar
menians fed in terror from their dwell
ings they were shot down as they ran,
and a number of men and women who
were captured by the rioters, 1t Is added,
were fastened to stakes and burned
alive. The Armenian women who fell
into the hands Of the mob, 1t is also assert
ed, were brutally treated and mutilated.
The Turkish officials, it is claimed, know
the ringleaders of the outbreak, but APP
parently no. steps have been taken to ar
rest them. The number OF Armefiians
massacred ut Erzingjan is now said to
be several hundred. The Turks, 1t Is
stated, have also attacked the Armenians
in the district of Gumushdagh, near
Trebizond, and have slaughtered many
of them.

Don't Worry.

"Take, therefore, no thought for the
morrow" is one of the passages that
Robert Ingcrsoll reads and pronounces
folly. But is 1t not rather one of the
wisest sentences ever uttered? The
original means, take no anxious
thought" or, in the language of every
day life, "don't worry" Christ applies
it to the future, to food, and drink and
shelter and raiment. He saw clearly
that the anxiety about the evils OF to-
morrow, that never come upon us,
cause a millionfold more suffering and
death than the evils that come. He
saw that multitudes perish of worry
about the hunger, and thirst, and ex-
posures that never come, for every one
that actually dies Of real hunger, thirst
and exposure. Christ showed his infin-
lite wisdom in avoiding the extreme fol-
ly of Mr.. Ingersoll, and saying: Don't
worry."-Homiletic Review.

All He'd Turned Against Him Wheu
He Finally Left Paris.
1t was a stubborn fight with fate that
went ON In the gilded Elysian Palace
IN the street Of St. Honore In those
bright days of Paris June. An EN-.
peror was trying the hard task Of rul-
ing his own spirit; conqueror was set
to the bitter struggle Of cohquering
himself. Than this there Is no harder
task In oil the world, whether for boy
or emperor.
And, In this fight, allies were not to
be depended upon; foes really were
friends. For the first would have tempt
ed the overpowered monarch to stand
at bay against victorious Europe and
distrusting France; the others were de-
termined to drive him, from France at
all hazards. And, In his case, to go was
his only safety; though had he died fight
ing. for his lost crown, history would
have given him even greater glory.
Then came the end, when his minis
tiers set themselves up to be his mas
ters;' when those he had most richly re-
warded became his keenest foes; when
France refused to acknowledge as its
ruler man twice overthrown; when
from those to whom he looked for coun-
sci came only lukewarm loyalty, false
protestations, or unwelcome truth;
when from anger ut the unreliable
Chamber of Deputies, whom he, like
Cromwell, threatened to turn out meek
and heels" he would change to indie
cision, silence, even timidity, 1t was
plain there was but one thing to do ~
He did 1t. On the twenty secohd OF
June, 1916, Napoleon signed second
abdication, proclaimed his little son,
whom Austria had kidnapped, Emperor
Of the French, and three days later left
Paris forever.
He drove to Malmaison, twelve miles
from Paris, that beautiful estate, half
palace, half villa, which had been the
home Of the Empress Josephine. Here
Napoleon had spent many happy hours
In his days Of power and prosperity;
here Josephine had died while he was
at Elba; here the Emperor had planned
out his greatest campaigns, his most
glorious victories; and here Philip came
to him.-St. Nicholas.

later smoke was discovered in a clothing
closet. The neighborhood was. aroused
and a search conducted. An hour after
a man was seen in the building by Mary
Speed, one of the children. He escaped
before the girl recovered from her fright
and in ten minutes fire again broke out

other, despite the fact that every room

One of the most disastrous wrecks that
ever occurred on the Baltimore and Ohio
Road happened because Of n broken wheel
at 10 O'Clock Sunday morning at Elm
Grove, suburban station five miles east
of Wheeling on the Wheeling and Pitts
burg division. Mrs. Miranda Hare. OF

infant son were killed, @. j. Garvcy, an
oil operator of Marietta, Ohio, and Ella
Vance, of Wheeling, will die. Thirty
three others were hurt. Three cars were
smashed into kindling wood and the par
Ior car caught fire. The flames were
extinguished, however, by two OF the
passengers before they gained much head
way. The railroad officials say the aeci-
dent was one of those unaccountable
occurrences that may come at any time.
The broken wheel was given the usual
test before the train left Pittsburg and
appeared to be perfectly sound.

A committee of eight representing the

Union is at Devils Lake, N. D., revising

as a high-paid man without grievance.
As further cause for complaint 1t is
claimed that Mr.. Hill, ever since the
union won the great strike in 1894, has

cusses, editorially, the proposed expendi-

canals. 1t shows that If the proposed
improvements reduce the cost of carriage
1 cent per bushel, which appears
probable, the saving, with traffic on the
Erie Canal. equal to that Of 1894, will
amount to. 81, 03S,000 per annum. 1t
deems 1t likely, however, that with the
canal deepened and improved as proposed,
the traffic will increase to what it was in
$780, and If this occurs, the annual saw
ing in. cost of freight transportation will
amount to 81, 49,, 900, or return of near
ly 25 per cent. per annum upon the ex-
penditure which the State proposes.
