4 REMARKABLE STORY.
American Ship Captain Saved Sever
Refugees from the Turkish Knife.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE World this
morning says:
The steamship Boync of the Mercantile
Steamship company of London arrived III
port on Friday from Gibraltar and
Mediterranean ports.
Capt. Fischer told Il remarkable story
to Collector of Port Kilbrcth and others
as to why he had entered port without
II manifest. His ship lay at anchor off
Smyrna, Turkey, in Asia, on October 20.
There had been several riots in Smyrna
for three or four days and the cries of
the victims of the assassins came over
the waters. That evening a small boat
came up and an aged man begged per-
mission to go aboard. With him were
six others. three of them women, all
Armenian refugees. Capt. Fischer as
scented and in order to he on the safe side
the refugees were registered as passen-
gers. Not long afterwards Il boat load
of Turks came aboard. Capt. Fischer
very firmly refused to deliver the refu-
gees to them. The Turkish officer
SHlu ne WOlllu give Inc BfltlSnpf Untll
morning TO turn over the Armenians.
Capt. Fischer sought assistance. An
Italian man-0f-war refused to interfere.
When dawn came, the United States
warship Minneapolis came into the bay.
The British tlag was sent, swinging up
side down. and the Minneapolis lookout
saw the signal of distress.
Capt. Fisher told his story and Admiral
Thorne Selfridge, ,Jr., commander of the
European squadron, said: 1--WE will give
you all the assistance you want You'll
take the refugees safely out of this port,
if | have to lombard the town." and the
admiral ordered off the barge with set
of marines and blucjackets over to the
British ship with orders to hold herself
from attack. Then the American consul
was sent for. 1t was agreed that the
Boyne should sail at once, under the es-
cort of the Minneapolis. Soon bloody
Smyrna was many miles behind, but the
captain had forgotten his manifest.

SHORT TALKS ON ADVERTISING.

People generally read advertisements
more than they did Il few years ago. The
reason is to be found in the advertise
ments themselves.
Advertisers are more careful than they
used to be. They make the advertise
ment more readable. Some of them
even become in way a department of
the paper, and people look for them every
day with as much ZeSt and pleasure ms
they turn to any other feature.
This is true of many department stores
all over the country. In many cities
there is just one man who appreciates
the value of such interest.
He breaks away from the old set style.
He tells something interesting in his
space every day.
There are lots of interesting things in
business. Look over the miscellany page
of any paper-look Mt it's local news col
umns, and its telegraph news, for that
matter, and you'll see that the majority
of the items are more or less closely re-
lated to some business fact.
Dress these facts up in n becoming
garb of words and they will find readers
even though they be in mere adver-
tisement." ........ .........
Let the merchant come down off his
pedestal and talk in his ads. He needn't
be flippant-far from it, but let him not
write as if he were addressing somebody
afar off and telling him about something
at even greater distance.
The newspaper goes right into its read
er's house-goes in and sits down with
him. 1t is on the table when he eats
and in his hands while he is smoking
after the meal. 1t reaches him when
he is in an approachable condition
That's the time to tell him about your
busness-clearly, plainly, convincingly-
as one man talks to another.-Charles
Austin Bates.

Blaine, and Swedish lady, on being
introduced to Mr. Blaine, exclaimed:
"Ah, he is magnetic; he is like my
king" While most cordial towards the
United States, King Oscar is not the
less friendly to Great Britain, though
there are no ties of immediate kinship
with the British royal family. He is,
however, a warm personal friend of the
Prince of Wales. who visited him at
Stockholm in 1855. when a royal elk hunt
through the woods of Sweden took place.
His especial ally is Emperor William,
who visited him last year. The leading
and judicial fairness which King Oscar
has shown in several recent aritrations
eminently qualified for the responsibility
involved in his present choice by the
United States and Great Britain.

LABBY ON THE ELECTION.

LONDON, NOV. lO.-Commenting on the
recent elections in the United States,
Henry Labouchere in Truth says:
If Bryan had been wise he would have
gone in for bimetallism, if it pleased him,
but he could have left the ratio indefinite.
His ratio meant the right of all to repudi-
.te half his obligations without thus bet
tering any one in the future. But the
victors will do well to realize that apart
from bimetallsm there is strong grow
ing feeling in America against huge ac-
foundations of capital in the hands of
individuals, obtained by means of the
trusts, which are really monopolies, and
gambling with cogged dice in railroads.
The greedy plutocracy, unsupported by
an armed force can not long hold its
own against the rights and well being of
all. | am nowise certain that had
been an American | should not have vot-
ed the democratic ticket, had it not been
that | regard all tampering with the
coin of country as injurious to all, and
it does not strike me that Mr.. Bryan is
up to the presidential mark.

GOVERNOR-ELECT PINGREE AND
COL. ATKINSON OF DETROIT
AMONG THE CALLERS.
MICHIGAN and A CABINET POSITION
Somebody in the State Wants One-Mrs.
Mckinley Still Confined to Her
Bed-The Major Appears to
Be in Good Health.

Canton, O., Nov. ELECTROMAGNETIC
Pngree of Michigan, accompanied by
Col John Atkinson of Detroit, spent two
hours with President-elect Mckinley this
afternoon. They came to Canton today
evidentl yto talk over Michigan affairs
as connected with the national admins
tration. To an Associated Press repre-
sentative Mr.. pingrcc said there had
never been any doubt in Michigan. He
said the tariff was the issue on which
the republicans carried Michigan. when
asked if Michigan had any candidate Tor
cabinet positions Col. Atkinson winked
one eye at the reporter and replied that
Michigan had Il great many people i'll her
borders
Another caller today was Mr.. William
G. Beer of New York, manager of the
National Surety company.
1t is now expected that Maj. Mckinley
will leave with his wife for Cleveland on
Friday.
Maj. Mckinley appears in robust
health. He was at his best as he
chatted with his friends in the library to-
night. At the same time it is very evil
dent that no man could pass through
the work and strain of months past with
out suffering considerably, although his
callers can see DO signs of it.
Every hour brings to the house remem-
brances from friends from all parts of
the country in the shape of flowers,
canes, horseshOes, souvenir medals,
badges, ROSTERS and eagles and all sorts
of offerings, which give the rooms in
the house an appearance of an old
curiosity shop, combined with Il rare col
lection of curios and flower shop.
These presents are many of them
carried to Mrs. Mckinley, who regards
them with great interest when able to
see them. She spent most of the day on
II couch in her room, and her devoted and
ever watchful husband makes hundred
trips day across the hall to see to her
comfort and welfare. No matter who
the caller may be, nothing is allowed to
prevent his frequent presence at the side
of Mrs. Mckinley. He also finds time
to call on his mother, nearly mile
away, every day, and the charming old
lady, 81 years old, makes frequent trips
in her One-horse surrey to the historic
house of her son.
Chauncey Nj. Depew's congratulations
came in an autograph letter today, the
closing sentence of which was furnished
the Associated Press, reading:
II feel that the country has greater
cause for gratitude than ut any time
since Lincoln's second election. in both
the results of this contest and the candi-
date with whom patriotism and sound
money succeeded"
