CQgkiSb Minister Embarrassed

come to Washington the request was
granted. but only after All Ferrouh Bey
had registered solemn promise that the
change Of residence would not in any
way infringe the sanctity of the custom
pertaining to the inYisibility of the Turk
iSh Woman'S face. Washington rejolced
over the prospect of having a real Turk
ish harem, especially as 1t was understood
that the Oriental lady would receive
members of her own sex in the harem.
The arrival OF the harem was looked for
with keen anticipation.
But with all his other troubles the pol
ished Turkish diplomat did not count on
vulgar American curiosity. He found
that IL his wife was to live at all under
the restrictions of her home custom
every blind In the house would have to
be drawn. This was particularly unfor-
tunate. because the lady is not in the
best Of health and positively requires a
little air and sunshine. But there was
found to be no hope of these without risk
of the camera ffend and of being stared at
by the rude eyes of the vulgar.
Such are the causes which have moved
the minister to try to secure some quiet
suburban home, around whose grounds he
can erect high wall, behind which his
wife can take a garden walk and catch
a glimpse of the blue sky. He Is having
an exceedingly difficult time Of it, how
ever as people who have houses to lease
are averse to high walls being built
around them. 1t will be fortunate for Ali
Ferrouh Bey If the sultan does not hear
of his quandary and order him to return
the madame to her comfortable and Sc
Guided home In Stamboul.

WASHINGTON, March A.-AH Ferrouh
Bey, the Turkish minister. who has an
nounced his intention of taking his wife
out of the capital to the seclusion of q
high-walled suburban home, Is not the
only Turk whose mission abroad has been
rendered painful through the religious
and social customs of Moslem concerning
women. Sheriff Pasha, the porte's minis
ter to Sweden. was unusually fortunate
in that his wife was an Egyptian prin-
cess, who was not bound by the ineXora-
BILE laws OF the harem. But Saaduliah
Pasha, the Ottoman ambassador to VI
emma, found the yoke of Moslem bitter
indeed, for this poor man was driven to
suicide by separation from his family;
and Mohammedan's family Is his dear
est possession in this earthly life.
Saaduliah Pasha had been the sultan's
representative at the court OF Vienna for
twenty years. In all that time he had
seen his wife and children only now and
then. The prohibition of the sultan for
bidding his diplomatic servants to take
their wives with them was carried to eX-
cess in his case. The spouse of Saadu-
liah was taken i'll, and it was feared she
would die. The husband asked for leave
of absence to go to Constantinople Per-
mission was withheld, and Saaduliahs
heart was broken. He put an end to his
life and his troubles at one blow.
This tragedy was not without its eff
feet on the heart of the sultan. Hence,
when Ali Ferrouh Bey requested Abdul
Hamid TO permeit the ministerial wife to

got himself up in great shape for the
occasion, appearing for the first time
in his life in evening dress. He went
up to Dunn at the ball. 'Hello, Tom. q"
he said, chow do l look in a dress suit?"
"First-rate,' said the sheriff; why don't
you get one?" On another occasion a
certain Tammany man came to Dunn's
office and told him he was going to be
married That's good news" said the
sheriff; 'have you seen Croker about
it?'
Frederick D. Kilburn, state superinten-
dent of banking in New York. made &
campaign speech for Gov. Roosevelt last
fall that was a record breaker. Kill
burn and other spellbinders were touring
the extreme northern part Of the state.
Early one morning the engine stopped
for water near lumber camp. Kilburn
got out on the end of the car and de-
hvered a rlp-roaring speech on the evils
of Tammany Hall and kindred campaign
topics The Iumbermen listened with no
show Of enthusiasm. A trif1e nettled,
Rilburn returned to the car. A brake
man, noticing his gloom said. cheerful
ly: Don't mind those French-Canadlans:

OF them make it all right IL they can start
In few minutes, but If they wait until
noon the roads will be in bad condition
and many Of them won't get home In time

You're to be hung In an hour. and an
hour more or less can't make much Diff
ference to you, while it makes a lot to
them. Now, like the good fellow that you
are. won't you come out and be hanged
now?' - .;
After some thought, the condemned
man replied: I'll do 1t If you'll give mo
a red neektie to wear and hold an UNI
brella over me on my way to the gall
lows" This was agreed to, and that
hanging was pulled Off an hour ahead
of scheduled time. although the condemn
ed complained bitterly that the sheriff
held the umbrella 50 that the water from
1t trickled down the back of his neck.

when a man was to be executed the
community in which it occurred made an
event OF 1t. The hangings were held In
pubic and in the opening. Generally the
GalloWs was placed on hill so that e.
good view could be had by ALL The rural
population, bringing their luncheon with
them, came from the distant parts of the
countryside, and the streets generally
took on the appearance of fair or circus
days. Booths, where lemonade and such
things We're Sold merry-gC-rounds, shoot
ing galleries, ETC., were all there, and il
was generally a lively, interesting and
amusing day for every one but the con-
demned. Apropos of this manner of
treating an execution, my governor used
to tell an amusing story. The little town
IN the northern state from which he came
was the county seat, and there one day
was to occur a hanging. 1t was, l think.
the last execution that occurred in thai
state, capital punishment having since
been abolished there When the fatal
day for the accused man came the people
began to arrive early; from far and near
they came, and as the hour for the exc
cution drew near the streets were Iam-
med to suffocation. The execution was
scheduled for noon, but at 1920 the heav-
ems took on an ominous look and by II a.
drizzling rain had begun which bore
strong promise of becoming a steady
downpour before the day had waned. The
people began to grow anxious, but the
majority hung on. At this juncture the
sheriff went to the condemned and said ::

WORSE THAN THE GUN.

We have heard In song and story
OF the man behind the gun,
And we all concede the glory
OF the wonders he has done.
It's a very noble calling
To arise with gun In hand, e.rnna
While the men like leaves are IaihnS
For the honor of the land.
But remember, there's the glory,
When the battle has been won.
TO be praised in song and story
AS 1.-THE man behind the gun
There's another sort of hero,
And of him the poets pen
Never writeth. He's but zero
In the book of Noble Men"
Not for gallant deeds in war meant,
Yet, with temper in command,
He must suffer mental torment
Nor so much as raise his hand,
Though his enemies should blind him
He must let it go at that.
In the theater you'll find him
He's 1.-THE man behind the hat"

While Capt. Averill was attending
court as petit juror in September, 1899,
at Newport he invited the Jurors with
their wives to have picnic at vii
longhby Lake in June 1900. j. II. Hovt
of Barton was elected scribe to select
date and place of meeting and the 23rd
of June was selected and finer day
could not have been asked for. All met
at Gilman's tavern and Mrs Gilman gave
one of her famous lumge dinners which
was a success in every particular. After
dinner all repaired to the wharf near hy
for ride around the lake with Captain
Averill, on the steamer keewavdin. The
Captain was at his best and did all he
could to entertain his juror guests and
their wives, pointing out all the places
OF interest around the lake which all en-
joyed very much. All were greatly
surprised to find so many fine cottages
along the shores and so many new ones
under way. They were more than sur
prised to see SO fine II mansion as that of
MIR. Peene's. One gets fine view of it
from the boat. Many would say "this
is the finest place ever saw" and others
would say 'this is the finest ride ever
had and shall come again" All called
on Mrs. n. K. Richardson at the Lake
House, also called at David Hills cot
tage and took on board Mrs. Gates and
daughters of Newport as it was at their
house nearly all boarded while attending
court. 1t was a complete reunion and
all had fine time. Parting at Gilman's
wharf they all thanked the Captain for
the pleasure they had enjoyed in making
the trip around the lake and wished him
prosperous season. Those present

that he and his noble companion NAV
live many years to enjoy it.

is bound to give satisfaction.
