half of the Armenlans take leading part

lief committee was held yesterday to give

Tho secretary of tho committee reported
that an trade had apparently already been
signed by tho sultan docrecing that the
missionaries should be banishcd, and that
Rev. Mr.. knapp's withdrawal was viewed
with CONSERVATION by his colleagues and
would DO most disastrous in every way.
After hearing these statements of the

ton OF relief to starving Armcnians had
been the means of saving many lives.
This motion was adopted unanimously
The meeting then appointed II deputa-
tion consisting of Canon Gore, Professor
Bert and Sir j. kcnnaway, Conservative
member of parliament for Honiton, Devon,
to wait upon Mr.. Arthur Balfour, first

Palace party is thwarting the pledges
which the porte has given to Sir Philip

The Place of Torment to Which Wicked
Buddhists Are Consigned.
The place of torment to which all
wicked Buddhists are to be assigned on

place of punishment. The Buddhistic
hell is sort of apartment house, di-
vided into eight 'easy stages" In the
first the poor victim is compelled TO
walk for untold ages in his bare feet
over hills thickly set with red-hot
needles, points upward. In the second
stage the skin is carefully filed or
rasped from the body and irritating
mixtures are applied. In the third
stage the nails, hair and eyes are
plucked out and the denuded body
sawed and planned into all sorts of far
tastic shapes.
The fourth stage is that of sorrow
full lamentations" In the fifth the lef;
side of the body and the denuded head
are carefully rooster, Yoma, the Bud
dhist Satan, experimenting the work..
In the sixth stage the arms are torn
from the body and thrown into en- i'm
mense vat among the eyes, nails and
hair previously removed. Then III
plain hearing of the sore-footed, blind,
MANNED, roasted and bleeding victim
the whole horrid mass is pounded into
jelly. In the seventh stage the 9th er
