loosen the animals from their stalls
and get them out through the smoke.
Mr. Beeman, with the help he had, saw
ed his wagons and carriages and most Of

there was no insurant on the building

EARTHQUAKE INCIDENTS.
Courageous Conduct and Marvellous Es-
 capes of Turks.

A Constantinople correspondent o1 the New York Tribune says that it will probably never be known how many persons were killed in that city by the earthquake of last summer. The Turk. ish government has chronic hatred o1 facts, and the newspapers were forbid den to publish statistics of the earth quake. What are believed to be mod crate estimates place the number ot deaths at about one hundred and fifty, end the number of the wounded al about six hundred.
 The correspondent cannot help prais- ing the courage of the fremen stationed than two hundred feet high. They stuck to their post, although the tower swayed like flagstaff, and when the fires broke out after the overthrow ot dwellings, they gave the signals as usual.
 Another case of similar sort was that of minaret builder who had gone up to the top of a minaret to remove a conical cap which the first shocks had thrown askew. While he WAS there an other shock occurred, and there was another panic in the streets.
 His assistants, who were in one of the galleries of the minaret, began to run downstairs, and the mosque serv- ants below shouted to him to come down, but he stayed where he was.
 If this is going to fall," he said, ''it will fall before I can get out of it, and he proceeded with his work.
 Many wonderful escapes occurred. Two men were walking together. A Turk met them, and, as is not unusual when a Turk meets foreigners, he pushed in between them, instead of turning to one side. At that instant a stone fell from the building above them, and hit the Turk, who feli dead between the two mortified foreigners.
 But the most marvellous escape was that of a boy three years old. He was running along the street at the base of the city wall just as one of the ancient towers was overthroWn. When the dust cleared away he was discovered pinned to the ground by great stones lying on his skirts on each side of him, but himself quite unhurt.
