MRS. ELIZABETH NJ. COLT.

1t Is understood that Horace A Barnes,
a wealthy resident of Bristol, and "a friend
of both Colonel and Mrs. Colt, will be the
main arbitcr in the settlement of the case.
There is also likely TO be a clergyman
from Bristol, but friends, not lawyers, are
to do the business.

have the arrangements made as soon as
possible Ii is probable that she will then
leave the state for the winter, but where
sho will go is not known outside of her
own immediate circle of intimate friends
Her counsclors, it is said, do not know.

The result is due to the fizzle at Jackson
and North Conway, and the earnest and
protracted efforts of friends--not only
those of Colonel and Mrs. Colt, but also OF
Mr.. Van Alen-and number Of prom

The terms OF the settlement will not be
made public, but it is understood that the
figures are what Colonel Colt agreed to
settle for in the first place, and what he
has been ready to give ever since the first
publicity of the case. He is to pay his
wife stated sum every year and she is to
reside in the Colt mansion at Bristol as
much and as long rs she desires, but it Is
not stated that she Is to hold the place in

Mr.. Van Allen is to make private ar

THE KHARPUT MISSION.
Details Of the Destroyed Station Furnished
BY Officers Of the American Board.

Boston. Nov 17.-The news Of the
massacre at and the devastation of the
American mission at kharput was firsi
received through the press at the rooms OF
the American board of foreign mission
commissioners here. and the announce
ment caused great CONSERVATION, as the
kharput mission was not only the most
prosperous and successful. but was also
considered the most secure from trouble.
The American board gives the following
details concerning the kharput mission:
The buildings destroyed are those of the
American board. Kharput is city in
Armenia, 200 miles southwest of Erzroum
about 20 miles cast of the Euphrates Its
chief importance lies in its position. 1t is
the center of large number of villages
covering an extended plain, and consti
tuting the only section of Armenia where
the Armenians can fairly claim to consti-
tutc IL majority of the population. Tho
city itself has II large Turkish population.
but the plain is almost entirely Armenian.
1t is the scat of Euphrates college. Fifteen
out stations lie within 10 miles of the city.
The Arabkir field, on the west. wa'
joined to Kharput III 1865, and the follow
ing year the larger part of the Diarbekir
field on the south; SO that now the limits
of the Kharput station embrace n district
nearly onc-third as large as New England.
The first missionary to occupy this sta
ton was Mr.. Dunmore in 1850. He left
after three years, and during the civil war
in America he became chaplain i'll tho
army and was killed.
The first church was formed in Khar-
put in 1866 with two members. Now
there are % churches, which have received
in membership more than 3)30 persons;
present living membership is a little more
than 100. An important feature of the
work is that for women.
The names and homes of the mission
aries are as follows: Rev 0. p. Allen, Mt
Bangor, Me; Rev. DIR. II. n Barnum,
leicester, Mass; Mrs. Mary f. Barnum,
born in Constantinople; Miss Emily NJ.
Barnum, Auburndale, Mass; Miss Carrie
Il. Bush, Rochester,; Miss Mary l.. Dan
iels, Franklin, Mass. Rev. Egbert S.
Ellis, Portland, Me-; Rev. C. Frank
Gates, Chicago; Mrs Mary e. Gates
Rev DR.. Crosby II. Wheeler. Warren
Me. Miss Emily c. Wheeler, Bangor.
Rev. John X. Browne and wife, whose
home is at 80 Chestnut street, Cambridge
port, are members of this mission. They
are ut home on Through and therefore
free from danger.
The membership of the churches III
Kharput is reported as at 1000, of whom
1918 are women. The people have paid

purposes, S2265; miscellaneous expcndi-
lures, S35iS; schools S347l; missions, home

A large tract of Warrens placer ground
owned by George Rlebold, ex Governor
Wiley. and others, has just been sold
to Philadelphia capitalists. The tract
embraces about 200 acres of ground,
some of which has been worked and
found to be very rieh The consideru-
ton, it Is understood, was $4,000. Mr..
Riebold says one man took 40 ounces
of gold from one of the claims included
in the sale, in eight hours. Oh nese
who own placer7 a short distance down
the creek have taken out 100000 in
the past ten years Mr., Riebold says it
is a fact that tive of the Chinese took
out $1,000 in a day. The Philadelphians
have purchased a dredging machine
with which to work tie ground. The
machine is now at Pocatello 1t will be
shipped in as soon as spring opens.
