A bride has come up from the South
Seas out of tropical Fiji and Samoa, to
the harsh winds of Northern cline.
She ia Mrs George B. Greig, whose
husband, called the king of Tanning

her intended husband, had never been

Mr. and Mrs. Grieg have known eacn

CurkiSb Minister Embarrassed

WASHINGTON, March 24.-AH Ferrouh
Bey, the Turkish minister, who has an
nounced his intention Of taking his wife
out of the capital to the seclusion of a
high-waIIed 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 prln-
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 a 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 Ill, and 1t was feared she
would die. The husband asked for leave
of absence to go to Constantinople. Per-
mission was withheld, and Saaduliah's
heart was broken. lie 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
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-03-25

come to Washington the request was
granted, but only after Ali 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 invisibility of the Turk
ish woman's face. Washington rejoiced
over the prospect of having 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 poll
ished Turkish diplomat did not count on
vulgar American curiosity. He found
that II 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 fiend 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 a 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 1t, 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.

New York Tribune.
In earlier days" said Walter Church.
Ill, OF Topeka, at the Hotel Imperial.
When man was to be executed the
community in which it occurred made an
event of it. The hangings were held In
public and in the opening. Generally tn.
GalloWs was placed on hill so that a.
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 were Sold merry-go-rounds, shoot
Ing galleries, etc., were all there, and it
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 hanging. 1t was, think.
the last execution that occurred in that
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 ian-
med to suffocation. The execution was
scheduled for noon, but at 1880 the heav-
ems took on an ominous look and by II a.
drizziing 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:
Look here, Bill, the whole county has
turned out to see you turned off, and

ones anxious to get home. They'll most
OF them make 1t all right II they can start
In a 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
to do the chores, and that's serious.
You're to be hung In an hour. and an
hour more or less can't make much diff
ference to you, while 1t 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 gal
lows" This was agreed to, and that
was pulled Off an hour ahead
of scheduled time. although the condemn
ed complained bitterly that the sheriff
held the umbrella so that the water from
1t trickled down the back of his neck.

WORSE THAN THE GUN.
We have heard in song and story

We have heard in song and story
OF the man behind the gun,
And we all concede the glory
OF the wonders he has cone.
It's a very noble calling
To arise with gun In hand, .-,,-
While the men like leaves are faliln6
For the honor of the land.
But remember, there's the glory,
When the battle has been won.
To be praised IN song ana story
AS ''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 bind MN
He must let 1t go at that.
In the theater you'll find him
He's .'the man behind the hat.

The present czarina Of Russia goes
to extremes in the simplicity of her
court apparel, and in this respect forms
a great contrast to the famous Eliza
, beth Petrowna, daughter Of Peter the
Great. The latter, while empress, says
the New York Herald, had earned the
title of elizabeth the Good" because
she never approved of any executions
in her empire. On the other hand, she
was much criticised for her extrava-
gance and eccentricity in dress. After
her death the fact became known that
she had 10000 costly gowns in her
wardrobe, none Of which had ever
adorned her royal person. Now, when
the dress of court is a more serious
matter with the royal and noble wonl-
en-, Russia has czarina who observes
the strictest simplicity in her gowns,
and requires the same from her guests
and attendants. This has caused end
less dissatisfaction. The ultra fashion
able lady must bear the chagrin of APP
pearing at court functions in very
plain toilet, for otherwise the scruti-
nizing eyes would pick her out as a
mark for disapproval. This extraor-
dinary plainness battles her admirers
all the more, because it is well-known
fact that the czar is extremely fond of
chic and has often expressed his ad-
miration for elaborate, costly ladies'
toilets,
