Spies for the Harem.

Europe has evidently come 10 the con-
clusion at last that it has made big
mistake in neglecting to take into cpnsid-
GRAFTON the harem as a factor in the
course of events IN the Orient. Until now
the seragiio has been, SO 10 speak,
sealed book TO the Christian powers OF
the civilized West. In the north of Al
RIGA and throughout Asia, where the ha-
rem system is in vogue. irrespective of
religious belief, since the Buddhist King
OF Siam, the Confucian Emperor of China,
the Shintoist Mikado of Japan, and the
brahmin Rajahs of India all maintain
great seragiios in the same way as the
sIltans of Turkey and of Morocco. the
khedlve of Egypt, and the Shah OF Per-
STA, no male save the sovereign Is permit
ted TO cross the threshold OF mans
zenana. The latter Is closed even TO the
judician authorities and to the police.
Murder and crime Of every conceivable
character can be perpetrated with I'm
punity behind its doors. To such an ex-
tent, indeed. is the harem secure from
the visitation OF any save its owner that,
although the authorities of British India
all along have been aware that large
numbers of those many hundreds of youn

young English women and little girls
who disappeared during the great Sepoy
mutiny of 1857 were and are still detain-

native dignitaries. and rich merchants OF
India, they have never dared TO institute
any search for these captiyes or TO de-
liver them from the bondage in which
they were held. This perhaps demon
strates better than anything else the de-
gree 10 which the harems of the Orient
have remained impenetrable mysteries TO
Europeans.
