That Indefinite Something to Set
tie the Sultan.
POWERS SAID TO HAVE AGREED
Cleveland Won't Recog-
niZe CubanS.
How the Campaign is Heading-Ex-
Speaker Crisp Dead-Sugar
Legislation in France.

LONDON, Oct 24.-All Europe is
still waiting expectantly for something
to happen in Constantinople. Dis
patches in the past two days indicate
that the Sultan is doing all he can
to hasten his own fate. Nobody any
longer pretends to understand his ac-
ton, nor has the secret of the policy
decided upon by the great powers
been disclosed. 1t is still assumed by
most persons that some policy has
been decided upon, although there is
no definite authority for such assump-
ton. 1t is believed by some that the
State Department at Washington has
been taken into the confidence of the
other powers. and the news last week
regarding the passage of the Bancroft
through the Dardanelles was a prema-
ture disclosure of the international
plans. The secret has been well guard
ed on this side of the water, and any
unauthorized announcements may
safely be set down as mendacious
guesses.
What chiefly concerns active Ar
menian sympathizers is the doubt
whether the crisis will be forced by the
Sultan himself or by fresh demon
stration by the Armenian Revolution
airy Committee. Every effort is now
being made to hold the latter individ-
uals in check, at least for a few DAYS
more. 1t it generally believed that the
revolutionists are busily at work pre-
pairing coup similar to the Ottoman
Bank affair. Several conferences have
been held in London this week between
leading moderates and revolutionists,
the only known result of which was
to demonstrate that the revoutionists
are impatient, reckless of consequences
and imbued with the belief that the
powers have agreed with the Porte TO
let bygOnes be bygones and have de-
cided TO accept the Suitan's promises
of reforms as satisfactory proof OF his
intention to amend bis ways.
The revolutionists wanr a good deal
more than this. They say that the at
tack upon the Ottoman Bank with the
consequent massacre of several thou
sands of Armenians was not too dear a
price to pay for bringing about q good
understanding between England, Rus
STA and France, and the sacrifice of a
few more thousands of lives must be
made, if necessary, to convert that I'M
derstanding into action. The revolu-
tionists are ready. 1t is estimated that
they have within few weeks received
from rich ATmenians of the moderate
party something like $250,000. and a
like sum has been promised by Euro
pean sympathizers.

STRANGELY FOUND.
A Ring Lost In Cotton Field Picked Up
by Magnet.

One of the Union OIL Company's big
mills is located at Denison, Tex, ana 1t
is surprising the number of queer finds
that are made in the cottonseed that is
ground there, so the enigneer tells.
An interesting attachment in connec-
tion with the intricate machinery OF the
mills brings this about. Before the seed
Is crushed 1t is necessary for ii to pass
through a very close ginning process,
where saws with almost intinitesimally
small teeth do the nipping. Oh course
the smallest bit OF metal that might
make its way with the seed would do in
finite damage IL allowed to strike these
fine saws. and to prevent this very In
genious cevice is used. This Is nothing
more than powerful magnet, over which
the seed Is compelled to pass in reaching
the gin. IL falls so gently that the least
bit of steel or iron that may be with the
seeds clings hard and last to the magnet.
Ii is almost incredible, the number OF
nails, screws, pins, bolts and such things
that are captured in this way; things
that have made their way into the seed
through the varying processes that IL
must undergo. OF course, a man Is kept
busy watching the magnet and removing
whatever may lodge upon 1t, else the
weight OF the seed would eventually
sweep them on again.
One day last month this magnet man
chancsd upon most curious lind. Cling
ing TO the magnet, in the midst OF an un-
usual number of nails and taps, he dis
covered what seemed TO be black ring
of singular workmanship, set with dia-
mond. The man at once reported his
find to the manager, who. In turn, sub
mitted Ii for inspection to an expert jew
eIler. The jeweller pronounced the ring
valua BILE one, of wrought iron OF intricate
workmanship, and set with diamond OF
the first water. The manager at once
advertised the ring, and IL. 4. Navarro of
San Antonia came TO claim IL. Navarro
proved his ownership beyond a doubt,
and the ring is now in his possession.
He says that the ring disappeared from
his possession five years ago, when he
strongly suspected half-breed cowboy
of having stolen it. An attempt to cap
ture the supposed thief was made with
out avail. Nothing was heard OF him
until recently, when the authorities dis
covered hat he was working in cotton
gin in the neighborhood OF Gainesville.
Navsrro says he hasn't n doubt that the
ring was lost by the half-breed while he
was ginning, finally making its way to
Denison In q consignment OF seed. The
authorities have been notified, and the
thief may yet be caught, bat in the mean
time Navarro 10 overjoyed with the re-
turn OF his ring. which is a valuable heir

cordance with the strict rule already
mentioned, an imperial page has always
been stationed in this gallery to prevent
the possibility of access to the locked
door. IL was at this spot that the young
prince had been on duty the preceding
night. ,
You will understand that the task of
keeping guard at night in a deserted
gallery was by no means a pleasant one.
although no page was required to be
there for more than three hours in the
twenty-four. Moreover, small room
opening out of the gallery had been
suitably furnished for the lads to relax
themselves in during their solitary
watch. In spite of this, the duty had
remained an unpopular one, so much 50

"You must know" the ambassador
continued, "that the Winter palace is
one OF the most colossal buildings in
the world. Whole suites of apartments
in IL are never used, even, but, in order
TO guard against all danger from the
odious attempts of the nihilists, a cer-
tain watch is maintained even in the
most deserted quarters of the palace.
In these portions which are given up 10
the members of the imperial household
this duty is performed by sentinels
selected from the imperial guard, but in
the neighborhood Of the cars own
apartments the task of keeping guard
is undertaken by the corps of pages, OF
whom Boris was one. The imperial
suite, comprising eight principal roor,s,
is traversed throughout its length by a
corridor which opens at one end on TO

are always on duty, day and night. At
