LONDON, Nov e5,-The Daily News this
morning publishes alettor from European
residing at Kharput dated Nov. 4. This
correspondent describes the whole city of
Kharput as being In state OF terror, the
result Of the recent upheaval. He says:
i'For over a week the Kurds have been
stacking the villages in this vicinity, and
they have looted six on this side Of the
river. Refugees are constantly arriving in
this city, and some OF our friends from
Oertek, in describing tho looting, said that
tho Kurds even came with their women
and children for tho purpose Of carrying
off the plumber The Turks from tho viii
fages around Joined them. In consequence
of the racial troubles in tho vicinity Of
Oertek three Christians were killed in one
house and two perished in another. One
woman who was encicnte was ripped open.
We daily appealed to the authorities, but
nothing wns done. The Kurds meantime
threatened to plumber Kharput.
: Aghn, ono of tho officials, when appealed
10 and asked to defend the city, said
"'Why should We protect tho giaoursP
Let them be killed.
''The government was formerly very
seem slack. 1t was known that the acting
governor had wired Constantinople for in
structions, but he was unable to get any
roply. People said This is the work Of
government muleteers from Dlarbekr.'
They told us how the Mussulmans had
marched from the mosques declaring that
they had the f1rman Of the sultan in their
possession, allowing them to kill the Chris
tlans. They proceeded with tho killing,
nt any rate"
Tho lotter describes the burning of Ar
CANA and Maiden, and continues:
''Eyerywhere, without exception, the
Kurds claim that they have the authority
of tho government for everything they do.
I think the worst is over. The Kurds have
been driven across tho river, in obedience
to tho receipt OF q telegram from the au-
thorities at CONSTANT nople requesting the
local officials to preserve order. II this had
been done at first all the disorders could
have bcen avoided. The terror and distress
are terrible, and the winter prospect Is ap-
palling. Where the Kurds alono were con-
cerned the loss Of life was not great they
evidently contenting themselves with tho
plunder."

CoNsTAETISoPLE,N Nov. mo news was
received from the interior on Saturday,
except from Marsovnn, where all was
quiet, though apprehension was felt for
tho safety OF the American missionaries at
Marsoyun, and tho houses were carefully
protected. The sultan on Saturday ssnt
a message to Minister Terrell TO this OBJECT
that no disturbances had been reported
from the Anatola peninsula on Friday
and Saturday. A report recently became
current that tho governor OF Hadjim had
threatened to burn the convent OF tho
town and the barley fields surrounding.
Minister Terrell thcreupon informed tho
sublime porte that II any of three Ameri-
can lady missionaries resident ut Hadjlm
were injured in any way he would demand
and obtain the governors head. Tho lady
missionaries were safe up to noon today.
A batch Of official dispatches has been
published representing that order has besn
completely restored almost everywhere,
except at Sivas, owing TO the measures
which tho government has adopted.
II is officially announced that several OF
tho notables aud persons in authority at
Erzeroum have apolagized to Shakir Pasha
for the disorders provoked at that town by
Armenian revolutionists.
Tho Christian bishops Mt Ourfa have
teiegrnphed the grand vizier that their
safety Is now assured.
The sultan has ordered that the corn col
iected In the form Of tithes shall be dis
tributed among the needy inhabitants Of
Swan and Kharput.
The opinion prevails In diplomatic circles
that European conference Is indispen-
sablo for the settlement of the Turkish
question, for, although the powers have
agreed, this agreement cannot be changed
into action for fear of drawing Europe
into dangerous eastern situation. The
winter SHOWS will keep the Asiatic prov
fnccs quiet, but something must be done
before spring time reylves the excitement
and Macedonia is brought into the move
ment.
ConsuIs estimate the loss to property as
0 result Of the Darbekir riots alone at
$4,000
General alarm still continues here, des-
pite reassuring reports from the provinces,
and the wealthy Armenians sleep at tho
hotels In preference to remaining ut their
own houses.
Tho kernel Of the present situation is
found in the fact that the government is
without money. The sultan is anxious to
stop disorders, but lacks funds with which
TO pay tho troops.

It Is Far Better to Let Other People Sing

It Is Far Better to Let Other People Sing
Your Praises.
In some paper lately Dragging" was
spoken of as a "sin," and the especial
sin of the American people. But this
is charge which is not entirely true.
Dragging is by no means confined to
the American people. And Dragging is
scarcely "sin," although it is pro-
nounced form of Stiffness. For many
reasons, all sin is foolish. OF course,
just as there is no boy so great a fool
as the boy who does what he knows to
be wrong and who expects to gain
something by doing IT. That can't be
done, and no one knows 1t better than
the boy who has tried it.
In the first place the braggart is fool
ish who brags of what he is going to
do or going to have or going to be.
What's the use? People don't want to
hear you tell of what you are "going to
do" All they answer is: "Well, do 1t!
Have It'll Be it! Then talk" There
fore, don't talk beforehand. That is
foolish. Waitl People don't believe
you. They will laugh at you.
And again, the braggart is foolish
who talks of what he is, of what he
has or what he does, in the present. 1t
is foolish because it is unnecessary. If
