MADE ORPHANS BY TURKS
Fifty Thousand Children Are
Starving in Armenia
CONSUL BERGHOLTZ'S REPORT
He Informs the state Department
Thatth British Government Con-
templates Colonizing the Widows
on Cyprus-No General Plan OF
Relief Has Yet Been Devised.

Fifty thousand Armenian children, made
orphans by Turkish massa cres, is the
official estimate received at the State
Department from United States Consul
RergholtZ at Erzerum.
A report received yesterday from the
consul, dated November 21, shows that the
and that the British government eontem-
plates sending widows and their children
to Cyprus The report is as follows:
1.-The number Of Armenian children
under twelve years OF age made orphans
by the massacres OF 1895 Is estimated by
the missionaries at $4,000.
NO GENERAL RELIEF FUND.
1.-The question of what shall be done
with these orphans is receiving the atten-
ton of the Christian world The Amer
lean board of commissioners for foreign
missions. is giving the matter serious
thought AS far as 1 am aware the board
has formulated no general plan OF relief
although The question of creating orphan
ages, clothing factories and Industrial in
stitutions is under consideration.
German charitable or religious societies
are preparing to establish industrial orphan
asylums at Oorpha Cesarea and elsewhere
and the ekaiserwerthd deaconesses of Germany
have emadeprovisionsfor receiving Armenian
orphans at Smyrna and thirty have been
sent there from here.
COLONY AT CYPRUS.
''The British government or its ambas-
sador at Constantinople has initiated
movement leading toward settling num-
ber of widows and their children on the
island of Cyprus, more particularly at
present at least those within the province
of Erzerum, which number in the cities
of Erzeruul, Ersingan and Baitort 2,04S,
who are without means and are recipients
OF relief In ErZerum there are $50 WIDOWS
with roo children; in Ersngan 100 widows
with $50 children, and at Baibourt 119
widows and 500 children.
1.-The widows at BaiLOurt are in particu-
larly distressing circumstances, not male
major remaining. No active steps have as
yet been taken to carry out this philan-
thropic movement understand beyond
requesting the relief committee OF the
province 10 ascertain if the widows are
willing to leave. l think the offer will be
gladly accepted

JETTIES, ARE IN DANGER.
Mississippi Riyermen Insist on Clos
ing Pass a lOutre Crevasse.

The Senate Committee on Commerce
yesterday heard q large delegation repre-
senting the shipping interests of New
Orleans, st. Louis, Pittsburg, Cincin-
natl, Des Moines, and Sioux City. in favor
of the bill providing for the closing Of the
Pass routre Creyasse, near the mouth
OF the Mississippi.
Capt. Woodw ard of New Orleans, an old
steamboat man, told the committee he had
visited the crevasse and inspected it just
before starting for Washington. He said
his vessel was stuck in the mud both going
and coming, and unless immediate action
was taken by Congress the whole jetty
system would be in danger Of giving
way.
Mr. Sanders of New Orleans dwelt upon
the necessity for a deeper channel through
the southwest passage, and contended that
modern commerce demanded at least
thirty feet of water.
Among the ether speakers Were Capt.
Bryant of New Orleans, ex-Gov. Stannard
Of st. Louis, Mr.. Mahoney of Sioux City,
and Mr.. Ross Of New Orleans, represent
ing one of the large steamboat companies.
All of these speakers agreed that the
crevasse was DETECTING the water and
forming bars above the passes, thus lower
ing the water through the jetties. If this
filling up process was permitted to con-
tinue, the water in the channel. they said
would be lessened to such an extent that
steamers now plying the lower Mississippi
would have water insufficient to float
| them.
While none Of the speakers had the ex-
perience of an engineer, they believed the
work could be done for the amount carried
IN the pending bill-$25O, 600. A further
hearing will be had next Monday.

1T CAN'T BE DONE.
No One Can Remain Well, No
Chronic Disease Can Be Cured,
Unless the stomach Is First
Made Strong ana
NfUOPnuG

This is plain, because every organ in the
body depends ON the stomach for its nour-
ishnlent Nerve, bone. anew, blood, are
made from the food which the stomach con-
verts to our use.
How useless to treat disease with this,
that end the other remedy and neglect the
most important of all, the stomach
The earliest symptoms OF indigestion are
sour risings, bad taste in the mouth, gas in
stomach and bowels, palpitation, all-gone
feeling, faintness, headaches, constipa-
ton; later comes loss OF flesh, consumption,
liver and heart troubles, kidney diseases,
nervous proStration, all of which are the
indirect result Of poor nutrition.
ANY person suffering from Indigestion
should make ii practice to take after each
meal one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, al
lowing il to dissolve in the mouth, and thus
mingle with the saliva and enter the
stomach in the most natural way. These
Tablets are highly recommended by DIR.
Jennison, because they are composed OF the
natural digestive acids and fruit essences
which assist the stomach in digesting all
wholesome food before IL has time TO fer
ment and sour.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
druggists, full-sized packages at 30 cents
They are also excellent for invalids and
children 4 book on stomach diseases and
