CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. 1S.-The
flight of the Sultan's onin-law, Nah
mud Pasha, on Thursday with his
wife's jewels and all the money he
could collect has caused a great SEN
sation here. 1t has now been ascer-
tained that he sailed for Marseilles on
a steamer and the Turkish Government
has telegraphed to the French Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs, NJ. Delcasse,
asking for the arrest of Mahmud on
his arrival at Marsellles and his re-
turn to Constantinople on the charge
that he was implicated in a plot to as
sassinate the Sultan. This accusation,
however, is generally dscredited and
it is believed the refugee is the victim

Eagle Carries off n Child.

All Windham county is excited over
the carrying off of a four year-old child
by an eagle in what is known
as Gurleyville, near Mansfield. The
child is said to have been Ada, daugh-
ter of Herman Hertz. She was play
ing with several companions when the
eagle came down and fastened its claws
in her clothing. The bird succeeded in
carrying the child short distance,
when it alighted, apparently to take a
better grip on the child's clothing. A
number OF older children had then
joined the party. They attacked the
eagle tiercely and beat it away, rescu-
ing the child before the eagle swooped
down on them again. Three of the boys
who fought away the eagle were badly
scratched by the birds claws. All the
old hunters in the vicinity have or
ganized and are trying to locate the
Williamantic, Conn. telegram
to the st. Louis Globe Democrat.

THE SIN OF FRETTING.

walking papers" the better for the
world. Worry certainly has no
place in the life of believer-a
worrying Christian il, indeed, a
sOlecism. Helen Hunt Jackson
wrote thus of the sin of fretting:
There is one sin which it seems to
me, is everywhere and bv every
body underestimated, and quite too
much overlooked In valuation of
character. 1t is the sin of fretting.
1t is common as air, as speech-so
common that, unless it rises above
its usual monotone, we do not even
observe it. Watch any ordinary
coming together of people, and see
how many minutes it will be before
somebody frets-that is, makes
more or less complaining statements
of something or other, which prob
ably every one in the room or in the
! car or on the street corner, it may be
knew before, and probably nobody
can help. Why say anything about
it? lie is cold, it is hot, it is wet, it is
dry, somebody has broken an APP
pointmeut, i'll cooked meal /;
stupidity or bad faith somewhere
has resulted in discomfort. There
are plenty of things to fret about.
1t is simply astonishing how much
annoyance may be found in the
course of every days living, even
of the simplest, il one keeps a sharp
eye Of that side of things This /.
certainly true; aud it is no less Ger
tain that a cheerful disposition may
be cultivated In the same way that

some years ago to serve In the tele

1t had been his ambition TO make n
certain young lady In Amsterdam
his wife II he ever attained to pros
perity. But when success was
achieved he was unable to leave his
work for trip to Holland. In thiI
difficulty marriage by proxy
known in Holland as IA glove mar
riage-was suggested.
The details were all carefully ar
ranged, the difference of time -X-
actly calculated, and continuous ca
BILE connection between Pretoria and
A amsterdam secured. The brid4
groom and his friends assembled IN
the Hotel Kruger. An operator ~

was in readiness, and the reply came
that the ceremony would then be-

responses, and when the time came
to clasp hands, produced u glove be-
longing to the bridegroom, which he
had worn. The proxy holding one
end of the glove and the bride the
other, the promises were exchanged
and the ceremony completed.
A cablegram from the bride to her
husband, six thousand miles away,
gave him her wifely greeting, TO
which he responded. There was a
wedding feast in Pretoria aud anoth
III Amsterdam, and the cable was
kept busy with congratulations.
Then the bride said farewell to her
family and went on board the steam
er to begin her voyage to her new
home.
The custom of the old glove mar
riage dates back to old Dutch colo
NAL days, when they were more
common than in these times of rapid
and cheap journeys. But there is IA
contract far older that resembles it
in many of it's particulars. Many q

mansion prepared before the foun

How 10 Go shopping.

Never buy any article without a
reference to the rest of your clothes
If you can wear it with nothing else
1t will be quite wasted.
Never buy thing you do not
want jus because it Is cheap.
Don'C buy an article merely be-
cause 1t Is pretty, when you have not
the faintest idea whether it will
suit you.
When you buy shoes aud boots, try
them on both feet, as sometimes
both do not fit.
When You buy underlinen, look at
the material aud the stitching more
than the trimming. A good plain
article, well made, is better than
cheap finery.
Never buy anything that is too
smart or too noticeable to go with
the rest of your dress. 1t will have
the effect Ut making the whole look
shabby.
