THE sULTAN'S MANNERS.
His Quiet Dignity. Pleasing Smile and
Unusually Sympathetic Voice.

His Quiet Dignity, Pleasing Smile and
Unusually sympathetic Voice.
As to the sultan's working habits,
have known him to be at work at FIVE
in the morning and keep a whole staff
of secretaries going at that hour who
had slept overnight on touches in the
rooms in the palace they habitually
work in, says Harper's Magazine.
Munir Pasha, the imperial grand mas
ter of ceremonies, and one of the most
kindly, distinguished men it is posi-
BILE to meet, once said to me: There
is one characteristic of his majesty
which conveys a constant lesson TO us
all: it is his extraordinary self-control
his impressive calm. 1t is almost
sublime. No contrariety, no trial,
seems able to ruffle his perfect self
possession. 1t is truly marvellous"
The prepossessing impression which
the sultan is universally admitted to
produce on those who are privileged
to come into contact with him is
doubtless in part due to that charm of
manner, that quiet dignity, so free
from angular self-assertion, which is
more or less characteristic of all we'll
bred Turks. But in his case 1t is sup
plemented by pleasing smile and an
unusually sympathetic voice, the notes
of which always seem to convey a
pleasant impression, even to the
stranger who is unable to understand
what his majesty has said until 1t is
translated by the interpreter. The
sultan usually gives audiences on Fri
day after the ceremony of the Selam-
lik. when he wears a Turkish gen
erals uniform, with the star OF the
Imtiaz order in brilliants hung from
his neck. AS he sits in front of you,
wits. his hands resting on the hilt OF
his sword before him, and you watch
him speak to Munir Pasha in his quiet,
dignified way, you cannot resist the
impression of his picturesque dignity.

The extradition treaty negotiated
between Mexico and the United States
has been signed by Foreign Minister
Mariscal and Ambassador Powell
Clayton.
Advices received at London from
Scandinavia says the czar's decree for
the classification Of Finland has awak-
ened feeling of Indignation and sym
pathy. The prominent officers Of Fin
land have sought an audience of the

has been refused.
No demand has been made by the
German government for the removal
by the United States government of
Chief Justice Chambers of Samoa, nor
is it true that either the United States
or the British government has de-
manded the removal of DR.. Raffell or
German Consul Rose.

GEES FROM THE PHILIPPINES.

VIII he Brought to America to Make
Honey for Us.
There is one race inhabiting the
Philippines which will be a welcome
addition to American citizenship, and
will be afforded every facility and in
ducement to immigrate to the United
States and engage in the skilled labor
in which it has no peer. This is the
giant East India honey bee, and in
vestigation OF its work and immense
capacity for making honey and wax
has interested the department OF ag-
riculture in a consideration of an
early effort to introduce it into the
United States. Secretary Wilson said
in connection with the proposed i'm
portation of these bees to the United
States that a special appropriation
would be asked in his coming report
to congress for the investigation Of
the bees of the world, and a swarm
of the big Philippine honey-makers
would be brought to America as soon
as the question of their value and the
possibility OF their acclimation have
been fully determined. There will also
be an appropriation requested for the
study of the agriculture and kindred
products of the newly acquired terri
tory of the United States, and even
under this head the great honey bee
of the east would be introduced by the
department to this country.

DoINos OF CONGRESS.

The naval appropriation bill finally
passed the house, after four days of
acrimonious debate, most of which was
spent upon the question of rehabilitat-
ing the naval academy at Annapolis,
in accordance with the scheme inau-
gurated by the appropriation of half
million in the last naval bill and the
proposition TO increase the maximum
price to be paid for armor plate to S545
per ton, existing law limiting it to S400.
Upon both propositions the naval com
mittee suffered signal defeats. The
amendment to build a great armor
plant was ruled out upon a point of
order, after rancorous debate, in
which the price to be paid for armor
was cut down from S545, the price
which the committee insisted was be-
ing paid for the new Krupp armor, to
S445. and a proviso was also added pre-
Guiding the government from paying
more than was paid by any other for
eign government for similar armor. A
motion to recommit the bill was lost,
and when the question on the amend
ment was put it was carried with
rousing cheer.
The house has passed the army and
fortification bills. The former carried
about $79, 900, 600 and the latter approx
imately 81, 700, 600. The final confer
ence report upon the Indian appropria-
ton bill was also adopted. The only
amendment of Importance attached to
the army bill was one giving two
months extra pay TO enlisted men in the
regular army who served beyond the
limits of the United States during the
war with Spain, and one months eX-
ira pay to those who served in the
United States.
After a contest that will be memoir
able in the history of the senate, the
compromise army reorganization bill
was passed. Mr.. German, of Mary
land, insisted that his amendment,
providing that the army should not be
increased permanently or beyond July
/, 1901, be Incorporated in the meas
ure. A warm debate followed. but
the amendment IN slightly modified
form was finally accepted.
The largest pine land deal made in
years has been consumated at Chip
pewa Falls, Wis. +. Weyerhauser sold
to Messrs Street, Chatfeld & Keep. of
Chicago, and TO Rittenhouse & En-
brec, also of Chicago, tract of land in
Ashland and Bayfield, counties, on
which it is estimated there is 900,-
900, 600 feet Of pine. The price paid
was 81 900, 600
Senator Burrows has introduced
new bill to provide for women nurses
in army hospitals His former bill for
this purpose did not meet the approval
of the war department, but this one
bears the Endorsement of that depart
ment and has its warm support.
The senate passed the river and har-
Dor bill by vote of 80 to 3. A sharp
contest arose over the Nicaragua canal
bill amendment, but on a point of
order it went along with the rest.
The senate has confirmed the follow
ing appointments: To be engineers in
the navy, Ernest p. Goodrich, of Mich
igan, Leonard NJ. Cox, of Kentucky,
Alfred c. Lewerenz of Michigan.
The President has sent to the senate
the nomination OF VIM. Il. Day, of
Ohio, to be U. S circuit judge for the
sixth judicial circuit.
