carriage were in the procession, and
until the last moment it was not known
whether he would come to Stsmboul
by boat or across the Golden Horn by
bridge. The Sultan has never allowed
any one to know OF his movements be-
forehand. He has only trusted those
closest to him. was told that he ate
no food but that cooked in his own
kitchens, and that every dish was
tasted before he partook of it.
He had no confidence in any OF his
palaces except that of Yildiz, which he
thought he had SO fortified that rev.
olution could not attack him. He
was frightened almost to death when
the Gear, Alexander II, of Russia, was
assassineted some years ago, and his
life has been one OF continuous un-
yest. He has, all told, from thirty to
forty palaces, q number of which are
on the banks of the Bosphorus. Yildiz
is situated on hill, and its grounds
contain acres of ravines, of forests
and lakes, of parks and gardens. Not
far from it is the great palace Of
Dolma Bagtche, where Abdul.Azis,
the brother of this Sultan, committed
suicide in order that another brother
named Murad might be raised to the
throne. Murad WAS pulled down by
other conspirators, who charged that
he was crazy, and it is said that he is
pining in the dungeons of one OF the
palaces along the Bosphorus. Abdul
Aziz furnished this Dolma Ba9tche
palace. He spent S3, 900, 900 year on
his harem, and within twelve months
expended $6OO,00 for pictures alone.

in Constantinople, through a special
permit from the Sultan. 1t has scores
of rooms, walled with satin. 1t has
crystal posts as large around as the
body Of man and more than six feet
tall. 1t has luxurious couches and
magnificent furniture, but Abdul
Hamid has feared it because it is too
near the water, and he has only used
it for public receptions.
But let me tell you how Abdul.
Hamid looked as 1 saw MIN on his way
to mosque about six years ago. He
sat in an open carriage drawn by
magnificent black horses, and driven
by coachnan whose body was re-
splendent in red velvet suit en-
broidered with gold. The Sultan sat
on the back seat, and was more simply
dressed than any one of the 10000
soldiers about him. There was Q red
fez cap on his head. the tassel of winch
hung almost to his shoulders. He
wore suit OF black clothes, the coat
cut high like that of preacher, save
that the coat was edged with red cord.
He wore a white shirt and turn
over collar, and there was no sign
OF sword or pistoi about him.
The Turkish cap has no brim.
