Great Britain's Preparations May Not al
Be Directed Toward south Africa.
NEW YORK. October pa dis
patch to the Tribune from London says:
Everybody is asking why an immense
body of reinforcements is going out
when every bulletin of victory from Ma
tai proves that a more moderate force
would suffice. That is a mystery as
dense as London's black fog. There is
a glimmer of light from Paris, where
it is rumored that the Russian troops
will not occupy Herat prematGrely
with the Ameer's consent. Well in
formed men were asserting last night
that these vast preparations were not
meant as a grand parade, but were a
wise precaution, rendered necessary by
the possibility that Russia would take
advantage of the occasion and make
another advance on Western Afghan
istan, where full control could be Sc
cured over Persia. With British army
corps on the grounds of South Africa
and in readiness for service in India Or
ready to testify that Russia would not
advance on Herat. The magnitude of
the British ornaments for a campaign
against the Burghers of the two petty
republics is evidently creating in Eu-
rope what Carlyle described as an at
mosphere electric with suspicion.
Those who are behind the scenes in
European diplomacy a, the present mo-
ment and we'll aware of the intriguing
now taking place between France and
Russia, and the intention. if possible,
to take advantage of England's diff
culties. very much doubt if the intrigues
are checked by British successes in Ma
tai and on the western border OF the
Transvaal and the Free State. The
British government is perfectly in
formed of what is passing and has not
hesitated to make very swift prepare
tons. naval and otherwise. The French
Mediterranean fleet OF six battleshius
and several cruisers left fer the Levant
where it has not shown itself for two
years.
This may or may not be connected
with the schemes above noted. Moth
ing would be easier than for the Rus
sian Black Sea feet to join it passing

JOE THE TURK"

A Famous salvationist Badly Mistreated In
Turkey-Got no Aid From u. ;. Consul.
NEW YORK, October 23.-The attor-
ney for the Salvation Army has called
the attention of Secretary Hay to the
indignities alleged to have been heaped
on Joseph Garabed, an ensign of the
Salvation Army known all over the
United States as Joe the Turk" who
visited Turkey recently for the purpose
of visiting some of his relatives. On
July II, 1898, he got a passport and
necessary papers which he supposed
would protect him as an American citi-
zen in Turkey, having been citizen
OF this country for over Is years. On
landing, instead of receiving protection,
he says his passport was contemptu-
ously received and he was seized by the
Turkish authorities and thrown into
Jail
BY considerable expenditure, Garabed
says, he was able to reach the United
States consul. He says the consul not
only refused to protect him. but ordered
him to leave the country, as the Turks
had directed. on the very next steamer,
or else to be incarcerated by the consul
in the American Jail until the consul
could place him aboard steamer to
some foreign port Garabed took a
Russian steamship and left the country.

GLENCOE CAMP, October 22.-Oe-
layed in Transmission.) -1z:20 p. m
The attack made by the Boer forces
under Gen. Lucas Meyers on the Brit
ish position Saturday, enabled the Brit
ish forces to score another signal sue
cess. The Boer column was driven pell
NELL over the plains, losing over three
hundred killed and wounded In addi-
ton the British captured several hun
dred horses and made many prisoners,
who are being we'll cared for.
The Boer hospital has been taken
under the wing of the British hospital
corps, as the Beers had only a simple
doctor with primitive staff and were
quite unable to cope with the wounded.
AS it has been raining all night long
and the weather is heavy and misty, it
is hardly expected that the Beers viii
make another attack to-day.

FOR MEOICINAIUSE
OLD-FAsHIoNED whsHsTASDs.
Bed Rooms Should BE Supplied With
Water by Hand.

From Harpers Magazine
In England and on the continent. where
the standard of comfort is, on the whole,
so much higher than in America even
the most luxurious establishments do not
have running water throughout Every
one who has travelled much in England
knows how the hotels. badly supplied with
food and table appointments. according to
American standards. have yet in their bed
rooms a display of washstands. basins OF
two sizes. ewers to match. soap dishes,
sponge cups. cans for hot water and porta-
ple bath tubs. Even more notable Is this
display in well-appointed English private
house.
The washstand is a handsome table four
feet long at least, with a parapet or bal
uster around three sides of its top a shelf
sustained by the legs a few inches from the
ffoor and every part OF this large piece of
furniture is occupied by the neat and some
metal supposed 10 be needed for the toilet.
The disadvantage of such an ARRANGEMENT
Is that 1t necessitates more service: but in
auoltlon TO the great virtue that Ii makes
possible, the vertical arrangement of plumb
ing, 1t has one supreme advantage, namely
cleanliness No device has yet been invented
which makes the fixed basin with running
water at once convenient. inexpensive and
cleanly. 1t may, indeed, be said that no de-
vice has yet been discovered which is simply
cieanly; at least, the writer has never seen
fixed basin about which It was not easy
to get up a squeamish horror The ar
rangement by which a bath tub or basin
used TO be filled through the opening which
led to the waste pipe seems TO have gone
out and fortunately so. for this the
filthiest of all the appliances: but the ideal
form for cleanliness has not Yet been intro
duced. In point of fact. the present tend
cncy among the most intelligent housekeep-
ers in America is to discard the idea that
running water is necessary in all the rooms
OF house. The plumbing shafts are 50
arranged as to bring as many rooms as
possible adjacent TO them. The rest of tho
rooms of the floor which are usually the
least occupied, are supplied with water by
hand.
