A Patriotic Redeemer.

The present State Board of Chari-
ties has only spent for their personal
expenses and per diem the sum of
$500 during the past year. Ofcourse
they could not expend more, for the
reason that the Legislature failed to
make a larger appropriation for their
benefit; but according to the Capital
they are entitled to great credit for
their economy.
We would call the attention of the
Capital to the fact that when Frank
Lockard was appointed on the board
to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
resignation Of Walter N. Allen, the
Governor in an interview stated that
Mr.. Locksrd would not assume the
duties of the position until July for
the reason that the board was anxious
to make a good showing and turn q
portion of their appropriation back
into the treasury, and that the four
members had consented to do all the
work. Everybody spplauded the &C
tion and were very much grstihed that
we had board that was willing to
make such great sacrifices and labor so
unsel6shly for the public good. But,
alas, for our faith in poor weak hu-
manitY, 1t turns out now that there
was no money in the fund to pay Mr..
Locksrd, and he concluded to wait
until the appropriation for 1S96.97 be-
came available before performing any
labor for the State. How patriotic
these redeemers are!

HAD TWO THOUSAND VICTIMS.
Bloody Turk still Continues His New
er-EndinE Slaughter.

Constantinople, Oct. 26.-The Armenian
reports say that 1000 Armenians have been
killed at Egin. So far as known no Turks
we're killed, but nearly 1000 houses were
burned, leaving only 150 houses standing
for the Christian population. and that the
women and children were huddled togeth-
er in the school house and some of the
remaining buildings, bereaved, destitute
and hungry 20 such an extent that the
governor general teIegrapned that they
were in need OF food. The official account
of the affair is that the Armenians re-
masned in church Sunday and Monday so
long as to excite suspicion, and that gov
eminent officials were sent to investigate.
The officials are said to have found that
the Armenians gathered in the church
had placed a rope around the representa-
tive of the Armenian patriarch and were
dragging him around the church and
shouting, "Why did you not allow us to
make disturbance before?"
The Turkish officials claim that the shot
fired on Tuesday, September 16, which
precipitated the massacre, was fired by
Kassib Manvog, a prominent Armenian,
and that the Armenians issued from their
church armed with 500 rifles and with
DCUlDS, DedIlHS the ldiLG VI llSlA NGpOSSh
patriarch, Izmirlian, and marched to the
upper part of the town, where they met
the soldiers who were returning from TAX
ing off the Kurds, and that the Armeni-
ans fired upon the soldiers and killed sew
eral of them. This, the Turks say, led to
reprsals.
Whichever version of the massacre at
Egin is true, there is no doubt that the
effect of the slaughter, plundering and
burning is serious. 1t is claimed in certain
quarters that when the heavy SHOWS are
on the ground and the escape of the I'M
fortunate Armenans is almost hNpossi-
BILE, and when the telegraph wires are
down and the roads impossible, the Turk
will resume his butchering, with the
knowledge that the news will not reach
Europe, or America until the massacres
are practically things of the past, to be
denied and eventually condoned by lapse
of time. The reports from Egin also say
that a number of Christians have been
murdered in adjacent villages since the
massacres.
