QUAKER OF THE ORIENT.
The HeEculean Turkish Porter whose
ID Place of Business 10 on tho Street.

The HeRculean Turkish Porter whose
&, Place Of Business 10 on tho Street.
The Turkish porter is one of the most
interesting objects seen in a tour Of
the orient. OF Herculean strength and
power of endurance, he is usually
prompt and obliging, also honest SO far
as in him lies. He cannot speak the
truth, and would not respect himself
if he could, for that is q virtue of the
Frank.
His place of business, says the Chica-
go Times-Herald, is on the streets Of his
native town, where he can be found at
all hours of the day, clad in loose
soiled jacket, usually gray, with gray
CATERS, Turkish shoes or sandals, the
inevitable fez and a neckerchief that
makes him look as if he were strang-
ling. -
All the burden of conveying large or
small articles falls upon him and he
will for gratuity carry a piano as cas-
lily as q trunk. He is the most con-
tented of the working fraternity one
meets abroad, whether he is found in
the streets of Constantinopleo or in those
of Stamboul, and the tourists make
much of him because he is interesting,
his occasional smoke under the shade
of q mulberry tree, or his lazy sips of
sherbet, being treats that renew his
strength for the hard work by which
he must live-if he is not able to sell
merchandise. Being sturdy and indus
trious, the traits of the Turkish porter
commend him to the public, hence q
picturesque description of him by one
traveller who named him the Quaker
of the Orient" {, G.

MICHAEL ANGELO.

vasari Tells Of tho Great Artists Pas
sion for Labor.
Vasari says of the manner in which
The great master of sculpture worked:
II have seen Michael Angelo make
more chips of marble fly about in II
quarter of an: hour than three Of the
strongest young sculptors would IN as
many hours, a thing almost Incredible
to anyone who has not witnessed it.
He went to work with such impetu-
osity and fury of manner that feared
almost every minute to see the clock
SILT in pieces. Itseemed as If, inflamed
by the great idea that inspired Kim,
this great man attacked with a species
Of fury the marble in which his statue
lay concealed"
One instance of such frenzy of labor
came when Michael Angelo was boy
but IA years old. He had carved faun,
one of those strange woodland crea-
lures, half goat, half man, of which the
Romans were so fond, with fresh faces,
tossing hair, sprouting horns and goats
legs. Lorenzo de Medici saw the work.
and was amazed at it's delicacy and the
richness of fancy displayed; but he be-
gan bantering the young sculptor in
the. easy, gracious fashion of a great
prince.
Look ,you," said he, "these wonder
full masters are not always young, as
you. would have it; they get wrinklcd
brows, they are unsteady on their legs,
they lose their teeth"
He indicated, as he spoke. the bcauti-
full row of teeth which adorned the
smiling lips of the creature, and passed
on. Then occurred a scene full of pas
sion and pathos, and eminent1y char
acteristic of Michael Angelo. As the
curtains closed upon the prince, the
young sculptor flew upon his faun,
nallet in hand. Round about the jaw
and brow he made telltale lines. He
ruckered the eyes with crows feet, and
last of all, he placed his chisel against
the creatures upper jaw and smote a
tooth away, by that one act giving the
face an indescribable lock of age.
Lorenzo was amazed at the marvel

introduction to the power of the young

May Discharge for Cause.

Attorney General Childs has trans
mitted an opinion to Superintendent OF
Public Instruction Pendergast, holding
that school trustees have the power to
discharge teachers for cause. The
question arose from a case in Blue
Earth county. where one of the teach
ers was charged with grossly immoral
conduct. The: law gives the power to
revoke certificates to the county super
intendent, and the question was if the
board could discharge the teacher if
the superintendent failed to act.

A Snake Bite,

Carl Strom, the 4-year old child of
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Strom, residing
at st. Paul, died Sunday of what is
thought to have been q snake bite.
Mrs. Strom with her three children
have been spending the summer in the
country near Hastings. Friday, Carl
came to his mother and complained of
a pain in his left foot. He said that q
frog had bitten him. The mother
thought it was only slight matter,
but on Saturday morning the boys foot
had become SO swollen that o doctor
was called. He questioned the lad and
came to the conclusion that it was q
snake which had bitten the boy. There
were two little red marks on the foot
which looked much like snake bite.
The doctor could do nothing with the
case, however, and after day of in
tense suffering little Carl died.
A Stabblng Array.
At Glyndon Mike Rider, a clerk in a
merchandise store, became mixed up in
quarrel with some hobos, in which
he received stab in the back with q
pocket knife, inficting very serious
wound. DR.. Awty, city physician Of
Moorhead, was called to attend to the
wounded man. The knife blade had
broken off in Riders back after pene-
trating about four inches After the
doctor had returned to Moorhead he re-
ceived a telephone message saying the
wounded man had commenced to spit
blood, which would indicate that the
knife blade: had penetrated one Of Ri
dcr's lungs.
