Washington, Dec. 23.-From the

Throughout the other branches of the
government service the proportion of
absentees on account of illness is un-

very short of help,

MRS. BOTK1N ON STAND.
Fair Defendant Denies Many of Dun

San Francisco, Dec. 23.-The defense
of Mrs. Botkin for the murder of Mrs
Dunndng opened yesterday, but the
progress made in breaking down the
case of the prosecution was slight. Dr.
George NJ. Tyrrell was the principal
witness for the defense. He was so UNI
certain in his testimony and contra
dlcted himself so often that he did the
defense little good. He testified that
ne visited Mrs. Botkin Sunday after
noon July 81, between the hours of 3
and o'clock and treated her for head
ache. This is the time and date sworn
to by Misses Peny and Dilmarr of
Hass' candy store when they sold Mrs.
Botkin the box of chocolate bon-bons.
Tyrell for some reason made no entry
on his visit book and rendered no bill
for services to Mrs. Botkin Mrs. Bot
kin was called to the stand at a late
hour. She told of her acquaintance
with Dunning, denying many of his
statements. She also denied much of
the testimony of Mrs. Lizzie Liver
nash, the reporter who testified to the
hysterical condition of Mrs. Botkin
when informed of Mrs. Dunning's
death and of several discriminating ad-
missions made by Mrs. Botkin in in

having purchased candy of Hass or
ever purchasing a handkerchief of the

long time, but one day waen ne was

Jasper, you must marry Ny son,

The words touched him greatly,

Lady Marie came, handsome

Lady Brandon love her; even Jasper
with The shadow Of his dead love
darkenng his lie, was pleased with
her. Lady Marie Valdoraine was OF
the world worldly; she knew the just
value of everything

in England more enyiable than that Of
Lady Brandon of Queens Chace, and
she determined that It should be hers.
She devoted herself so entirely 10 Jas

he had no love TO give her, but honor
and esteem only.
Lady Marie smiled in the most
charming manner She mentally con-

SUCCESSOR TO
THE
TERRIBLE TURK"

The art of wrestling is one Of the
most ancient forms Of athletic exercise
and long antedates boxing. The old
Greek heroes used to practice it, and it
was enc OF the favorite sports at their
games. Homer in his Immortal ''Iliad"
speaks of a wrestling match between
the great Ulysses anu Ajax.
The Greeks, however. were not the
inventors OF the art, Tor they learned
it from the Egyptians, and it was also
we'll known 10 the Phoenicians.
Ever since wrestling has been prac-
ticed In the peninsula formed BY the
countries CT Turkey and Greece, and
famous opponents OF the sport are TO be
found there to-day. In Turkey the sui
tan is a great patron OF the wrestlers
ard keeps a number Of them TO afford
him amusement. The paShas and other
rich men OF the Ottoman empire also
have their favorite wrestlers, to whom
they give big sums of money besides
backing them against other strong
men.
Seine months ago one of these Turk
ish wrestlers came to this country and
challenged any man in America to
throw him. He went under the title
Of Ismaiel Yousouf. the Terrible
Turk ard relied as much upon his
ability to frighten an opponent by his
terrible facial contortions as upon his
knowledge Of the art. After several
encounters with a number Of our well
known wretlers he took passage for
