Edhern Pasiln.

Edhem Pasha understands war
thoroughly, but it took him little
lime to appreciate the functions of
war correspondent. He seemed
70 think that the latter should be
hedged about by many restrictions,
tenderly fostered and safely depos-
tied during a battle among the bag
gage animals and knights of the
hospital. 1t was some time before
lac realized that the expectation of
witnessing and describing a battle
was the one thing which procured
him the honor Of these gentlemen s
company in his camp. One anx-
ious morning, at a time when war
was thought 10 be imminent, on
sending around to headquarters it
appeared that the general and all
bis staff had fitted during the
night, and had gone no man could
say whithe9 No orders had been
left, and the guards would allow no
one to pass. Here was case of
dire disappointment, but no man
may run the gauntlet of an Alban

treated not to allow this kind OF
shing to occur again. lie expressed

1t may be interesting to mention
that Edhem Pasha, the central fig
ure of this little world, is about as
years of age, though he looks older,
He is rather above middle height
and wears short, thick beard, al
ready fecked with gray. His nose
is straight and rather long, but his
most interesting feature Is his gray
eyes, which are large and intelli-
gent. His manner is very attrac-
tive-a mixture of that courtesy
and dignity which are not uncom-
mon among Turkish officers. He
does not strike one as strong man
physically, though am told he Is
hard worker and does not spare
himself His manner of talking is,
as rule, quiet and marked by
much refinement and gravity; but
it grows animated when a subject
kindles his interest, and his eyes
glow with enthusiasm. 1t is diff
cult to Judge of q mans sense Of
humor through the barriers Of a
strange language. His style OF life
is simple, and ne has none OF the
Oriental love of display. In char
acter he seems to be straightfor-
ward and sincere, frank and truth
loving. Trickery and intrigue, /
diplomacy and politics he alike DE
tests. His subordinates and those
who see them more intimately are
very fond of him "He treats us,
one of aides de camp said to me, .

New Mortgage Law.

June 18th the new state mortgage
law will go into effect.
The mortgage companies are at
sea in the matter. They are secur-
ing opinions and striving TO find
exactly where they stand so that
their business may be carried on.
One provision Of the law is clear.
That is that all judgments and de
crees on record at the time the law
goes into effect will stand as if the
law had never been enacted. Ac-
cordingly the mortgage companies
are getting on record as fast as pos
gible judgments and DEGREES in cases
in litigation

the foreclosed property went to the

difficulty of the learner lies in being
unable to perform both motions at the

an accurate understanding OF the action.
A convenient way is to suspend a ham
mock from ceiling by two hooks about
two feet apart and lie face downward,
with the hammock supporting the chest
and abdomen, leaving the arms and
legs free to learn their lesson. The leg
stroke alone can be practiced by lying

cushion and grasping the mattress with

The intense blue of the sky, the beauti-
full cloud effects, the glow of the stars,
the bririancy of the moonlight, could
scarcely be exaggerated.
The time spent there are days to be
marked with a white stone" by the
Woman's Press club. The generosity
with which they were entertained in the
Rand could not be unsurpassed, and
each member left with many regrets
that the sojourn could not be prolonged
into weeks, though the wind became a
sharp-toothed, bowling gale before the
station at Kramer was reached.
AS ladies with families are frequently
going from here and other points to join
husbands, a word of caution as to cloth
ing may not be a1niss. Don't be afraid
of bundles; provide plenty of wraps, a
travelling blanket or shawl, and wear
warm skirts and small hats. If there
is one thing old Boreas enjoys more than
pinching toes and noses, 1t is the total
destruction of the modern creations Of
the millfners' art, especially flowers and
feathers, to say nothing of the discom-
fort entailed in the effort to keep wide
brimmed hat on the head.
