RED CROSS SOCIETY.

Miss Clara Barton Makes Her Report-De-
plorable Condition of Affairs Depicted.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Miss Clara
Barton, president, and the other Off
GERS of the Red Cross society, have
completed their detailed reports of the
Armenian relief expedition to Asia
Minor last winter. Among other things
the report says that notwithstanding
all that has been done through all
agencies, infinitely more remains to be
done by some one, For between the
Archipelago and the Caspian seas, the
Black and the Mediterranean,' 'she says,
ARE to-day living 1900, 900 people of
the Armenian race, existing under the
ordinance OF at least standardization
and protesting the religion of Jesus
Christ. According to the stated es-
Inmates of intelligent and impartial
observers from 100, 600 to 200, 600 of
these persons, men, women and chill
1ren. are destitute of shelter, raiment,
fire, food, medicines, the comforts that
tend to make human life preservable.
Or any means of obtaining them. save
through the charitab BILE beneficence of
the world. The same estimate con-
ours in the statement that without
such outside support at least $4,000 of
those persons will have died OF starva-
ton or persisted through accumulated
hardsnips before May 1, 1897"

The door into an adjoining room
where the children were playing was
| slightly MAR. A numerous little regi-
ment were the Hoven children, and
crowded close together in years. There
were six of them, from 12-year-old
Katie to year and a half baby Roy. They
! had all gathered in the big kitchen on
this morning where they loved so to
play. And, as usual. Davy was the life
and leader of the party.
Say, Katie" he cried, .'let's play
Thanksgivin.' If we can't have a truly
Thanksgivin' let's have a play one. I
guess mamma won't care if we just play
Thanksgivin' That won't make us
any poorer, will it. Katie?"
''How shall we play Thanksgivin'.
Davy?" asked Helen, who was just his
senior.
"Oh. We'll have sermon, an then 60
home an have dinner. Katie can fix US
up nice Thanksgivin' dinner. lou can
take some, bread an apples, Katie, an
cut 'em up an give 'em some nice names.
An I'll run get one of my little sweet
pumpkins, an we'll make turkey of
it. An we'll stuff it. too"
What will we stuff it with?" asked
Helen.
'Oh, anything" returned the fertile
master of ceremonies. katie can stuff
it with her handkerchief if she can't
find nothin' else"
"Will you preach the sermon, Davy?"
Eyes. I'll preach the sermon. An I'll
try to preach a good one, too."
But. Davy, dere amt nussin' to
preach erbout," said solemn little five
year Susie. Mamma said dere wasn't
nussin' to be sankful for dis year."
You just wait an see, Susie. I'll bet
a dollar III find lots of things to be
thankful for"
The little company were soon in act
i've preparation for their imaginary
celebration. A pulpit was formed IN
one corner of the room by circle of
chairs, while a chair was placed inside
for the speaker to stand on. When the
audience was in readiness signal was
given. and the young clergyman
emerged from an outer room, dressed in
some of his fathers old work clothes
A church-like gravity pervaded the con-

An International Conference Desired to
Fix a Uniform Price.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ga conference
81 nations on the subject of the worlds
wheat market is understood to be de-
sired by at least one of the great for
eign wheat-growing empires. 1t is
stated in official circles here that Rus
STA is partially friendly to such an idea,
and is believed TO be making overtures,
not only to the United States, but to
England, the Argentine Republic and
Australia, which are the principal
wheat-growing nations of the world.
The idea is that these nations, should
they see fit to unite in an agreement
Upon the subject, could fix a price for
wheat. to be maintained uniformly
through various seasons of over-pro-
1uction and unsatisfactory crops
caused by drought or continued rain.
and thus make the principal grain

sumers depend for food almost as IN

his spirits. And as he looked out over

HILLS SILENCE BROKEN.

The Democratic Defeat Foreseen-Reor-
ganization Now Not Advisable
WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. I'm letter
to political friend since election, SEN
ator Hill, of New York, declares that
he saw that the democratic party was
foredoomed to defeat on the Chicago
platform. which he could not bring
himself to actively or openly support
Such being the case, nothing was left
for him to do but remain absolutely
silent and inactive. To the sugges-
ton. made in the letter which drew
the response from Senator Hill, that
active steps be at once taken to re-
organize the democratic party ION his
toric lines" the reply was made that
such a course would at present be inn
polite, that no immediate necessity
for reorganization was evident. and
that delay was advisa BILE to give time
and opportunity to allay the rancor-
ous feelings, jealousies and discords
which the recent conflict had aroused.
