THE INNOCENT ARMENIANS
Turkish Reports of Their Aggression,
COntradicted.
ALL EUROPE WOULD STAND AGHAST
Were the Full Report of the Consuls Given
out for Publication-Further conhrma-
tion That the Massacres Were by
the sultan's orders.

BOSTON, Nov. 26-The following letter
has been received in Boston from a reliable
correspondent in Constantinople:
1.-THE Turks have induced some of the
subsidized European papers to speak of
these crimes as Armenian outbreaks, but
the ambassadors have full reports which
they ought to publish, that refute all this,
and show conclusively that the sultan,
within day or two after he signed the re-
form scheme, ordered the Armenians to be
massacred in order that there should be no
question of an Armenian majority in any
of the provinces. The people flew on the
spoil, and SO did not execute the sultan's
wish to the full. But the loss of life has
been awful. Moreover, there seems no way
of preventing more of the same sort
ut is the most awful crime of the CEN
tury, because it is so persstently falsifled
by its authors. Everywhere the story is
the samoa deliberate preparation, and
then story sent to Europe that the Ar
menians attacked the inoffensive Turks,
and were reduced to order after a few had
been killed.
Worse times are in store for us. Europe
Is divided in counsel, and the Turks, find
ing that nothing is done for this crime,
will go on to extremities The highest
Moslem court has declared that the sultan
cannot lawfully be restra ined in the exer-
else of his will, since he is the representa-
tive of God for the whole earth.
"From 1000 to 20, 900 people have been
cruelty slaughtered during the last month,
and in consequence no less than 100, 600
persons heretofore dependent on them for
their daily food are now in want. The com
ing winter will witness q vast amount of
suffering. 1t is not alone at Sassoun, but
all over the land where these occurrences
have taken place"

.HARKINS' NERVE. LEFT HIM.
A Man Who Lays His Ruin to the Evil
Effects of Whiskey.
WAS ARRESTED FOR STEALING
His Employers Stock of Leather Diminished
More Rapidly Than the Trade War
ranted-It Was Being Trans
formed Into Liquor.

William Harllins made sorrowful looking
prisoner before Justice Williams this after
noon. He was arrested on charge oflarceny
| preferred by Joseph Ball and seemed to feel
| his position keenly. At first he stoutly de-
MED the charge and challenged proof, but
his courage did not stand by him and within
few minutes he abandoned his bravado
and broke down completely, acknowledging
that he was guilty and volunteering to show
Constable Dando and Detective Amour
where she stolen goods could be found The
man appeared to be on the verge Of delirium
tremens and muttered to himself as he paced
to and fro in the Justices office. Turning to
the officers he would say, "Yes, | did it: l
did it. | wish | were dead. 1t is all through
whiskey," and a bottle of W hiskcy he carried
in one of his pockets confirmed the statement
that it had played part in the mans down
fall.
HarSins has been employed as a shoe
maker by Ball of and on for the past five
years. About six weeks ago he started on
spree which he has kept up constantly since
that time. Last night Harkins was seen
leaving the rear of the shoe store with roll
Of leather under his arm Ball was notified
and upon inspecting his stock he found that
he was short six rolls of leather, valued in all
at about $50
Harlins was not arrested until this after
noon, the time allowed to intervene being
used by the complainant in gathering evil
dence. As result of what was CLEANED at
the hearing Peter Henry, of West Centre
street and Joe Stremich, of East Centre
street, both cobblers, were arrested on charges
Of receiving stolen goods, produced a small
piece of leather which he had purchased from
Harlins, knowing him to be shoemaker and
not suspecting that the leather had been
stolen. Strench said he asked Harlkins if the
leather was stolen before making the purchase.
Harllins, he said, told him that it was not;
that he (Harkins was giving up shoemaking
and sacrificing the leather he had on hand.
Notwithstanding their statements Henry and
Stremich were held in $500 bail for trial.
The latter purchased leather valued at 80
for Sl.5O. Harkins was unable to give $500
bail and was committed Considerable
leather is missing, but the prisoner says he
knows nothing of it,

A Strong Company.

When the curtain went up at Ferguson $
theatre last night every seat in the house
was taken. Seldom has such a large and
enthusiastic audience greeted an actress in
this town as that which was present to wit
ness the production of "Queena" by Miss
Ethel Tucker and her strong and we'll
balanced company. The work of the star
showed her to be an artist of rare ability,
and at once won the hearts of those present
as attested by the enthusiastic curtain call at
the end of the third act 1t was in the "mad
scene" that Miss Tucker displayed her
emotional powers to great advantage and
won hearty applause Her support was of
high order, especially that of Mr.. II. p.
Meldon as Lord Walter Huntingdon" who
is talented actor. In fact, each member of
the company is deserving of special mention.
The specialties introduced between the acts
were good, Beia winning much applause by
her fancy dancing and marvellous feats of
contortion. Little Vavene, the smallest child
dancer on the stage and only six years old,
captivated the audience. A full orchestra is
with the company and their music was highly
appreciated. We bespeak for Miss Tucker
packed houses during the week. Tonight
she will produce That French Woman. 3"
written especially for her by Hal Reid 1t is
a strong modern drama.

Mount Carmel, narrowly escaped being
poisoned at the early Sunday morning
mass. A quantity of Paris green had been
placed in the wine vessels from which he
is in the habit of drinking during the ser

on top of the wine, and as a previous at
tempt had been made on his life the rev.
erend gentleman became suspicious, and
did not partake of the wine.

working people. Nearly every one of
them had hoed cotton in the spring,
and summer till August, and picked
cotton all the fall since September.
Each had his or her little bit OF money
with which TO buy Christmas extras.
They were all comfortably dressed,
and looked as they felt, thoroughly
happy and content. Everybody seem
ed to have forgotten the hard labor
and self-denial OF the year past. There
was no hungry landlord to be appeased,
no empty larder at home, no little
pinched faces to make man regret
that his child had been born into a
hard and cruel world If there were
no signs of affluence certainly those of
poverty were still more scarce, and
yet, even when we know that in other
sections of the country good people
who have money are continually being
called upon to give bread, food and
clothing, not to the 'er-do-wells, but
to industrious, sober. manly men who
cant get work, we cry hard times,

Surely we are ungrateful. God has
given US the richest soil, the warmest,

awake at night because we haven't

We don't know what poverty is in the
South. Does any man in Mississippi

didn't have either turkey Or IL big,
