SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 3l.-Mrs.
Mary Davidson. the Sunday school
teacher who Is under arrest for an al
legged attempt TO extort money from
Rev. DR.. C. o. Brown. pastor OF the

the purpose OF cOrrobOrnting the story.
Mrs. Davidson says Miss OvcrInan told

and offered to sell story for $1,000.
which she said would ruin prominent

tIon all over the country. When the

THE AWFUL STORY
OF the Massacre of Christian Ar.
meuians in Cilccia.
THE TRUTH OF PRESS REPORTS
CONFIRMED by Letter from Adena-A. In
Other Places Throughout Armenia tho
Turks spared No One, but KILLED
Women and children without Mercy.
American Missions iti Danger.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. S1.-A mem
Der OF the Armenian colony In this city
has received q letter from n friend In
Adana, telling OF the latest massa-
ores in the province of Cilecla. The
writer was an eyewitness to many of
the scenes described. The letter Is dat
ed November "a.
"The present condition OF our city"
he says, "is one OF great danger. Whole
sale massaeres OF Christians are ex.
pected at any time. A company OF
brIgands numbering from 1000 to t.500
has already plundered and burned all
the Armenian villages between here
and Aleppo, a distance OF 200 miles. NO
estimate can be given OF the number or
youths who are captured In these VII
lagos and outraged.
"The local officials who are supposed
10 protect the people, encourage these
destructive and bloodthirsty mnraud-
ers. The other day a number OF these
mnrauders made an attack on MISS,
nine Miles from Adana. They plum
dered the villages, tore down the
churches, wounded great number and
mercllessly beat the defenseless priest,
who attempted to rescue his wife from
the grasp of these outrageous Villains.
MANY OF our prominent men are
thrown into dungeons without pretehHe
OF an accusation against them. Ihey
are left TO hunger and thirst. and are
tortured in the most indeScribable man
ner imaginable. Our vail (the COVER
nor) always instigntes the Mussulmans
against the Christians. NO one dares
venture out on the streets after
o'clock in the evening. Even In the
day time no Christian female dnres 10
attend church or school, because OF the
bands OF Turks who are about the
streets TO capture these Christian wo-
men.
''The other day the Turks made an
attack on the American mission school
girls on their way from church to their
school house They beat and wounded
the superintendent's servant because
he tried TO defend the poor, terror
stricken girls. The danger became so
great that the superintendent sought
refuge In Mersiue. It seems there IS
no protection from any source what
ever. even the English consul being IN
different to the atrocities committed.
Business Is all stopped, for the
cnrIstIan business men dare not open
their stores for fear OF being plundered.
The farmers are robbed OF their stock

This news comes close home to Amer

sionaries. These Christian workers

themselves under the protection OF the

NEW YORK srl&JK IARKET.

New York, Dec. 29.-AIthough the
stock market to-day& failed to display
any improvement ove% the recent light
records Of business, a&tronger tone was
apparent chiefly on covering OF shorts.
There was CONTINUES. absence Of com
mission business and Che rally was in
spired by more cheerful adyices in re
Iation to the western 9ank situation,
reported easier trend tosmoney in London
and weaker tendency In the market for
foreign exchange. In q few Of the more
active specialties manipulation for a rise
was evident and a fl Forable influence
also resulted from moderate purchasing
orders for foreign account. Despite the
heaviness Of exchange experts express
conflicting views as to= the immediate
movement Of that market. The point Of
uncertainty is the amount of exchange
that has been boarded a:ld the probable
extent of renewals Of maturing loans in
the coming month. The preponderance
of opinion is, however ins favor Of lower
exchange rates.
The grangers and leading southwestern
stocks were in particular :demand in the
late dealings and averaged gains Of l

the best prices. The boad market dis
played decided strength in: the prominent

There is always more or less suspicion

but somtimes a man so overnoWs WIN

discovery Is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
no has discovered 1t is upon this prin-
cinaI that q resident OF Kalamazoo,

prescription which will cure them OF any
form OF nervous debility; relieves them
of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and
restores the organs to natural size ana
viger. As it costs nothing to try the
experiment it would seem that any man,
suffering with the nervous troubles that
usually attack men who never stopped TO
realize what might be the final result,
ought to he deeply interested in remedy
which will restore them to health,
strength and yigor, without which tney
continue to live and existence of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was
the result of many years research as to
what combination would be peculiarly
effective in restoring to men the strength
they need, it would seem that all men
suffering with any form Of nervous weak

at once. A request to H. @. Odds, Box
