New York, February 2.-Fears have
been repeatedly expressed during the
last few months that the Turks are
planning another general massacre OF
Christians in the interior OF Turkey.
The Kurds, particularly in Kurdistan,
are much excited, and 1t needs only a
spark to start them upon their awful
work. The World has information which
indicates that at Mardin (Bitlis), Diar-
bekr and Harpoot, the principal cities
Of central and eastern Turkey, the Mus

opportunity to repeat the horrible work
Of rapine and murder of the fall of 1896

Made a Call for Additional
Soldiers.

and Compel Citizens to Go to the War
Whether Willing Or Not-No Def
mite News Received.

London, February Q, 2:37 p. m.-There
10 NO official news from General Butler S
headquarters, and the only information
which reached London In any way sup
porting the reports that he recrossed
the Tugela river is found in the Asso-
ciated Press dispatches announcing
Lord Dundonald's reconnaissance
which is taken to indicate prelude to
renewed sttivit's AS the dispatch Is
three days old, and Lord Dundonald
found no difficulty in crossing the river,
1t Is not impossible that Butler may
have moved in the interim, and public
anxiety Is again concentrated upon the
upper Tugela. The dispatches from else
where in South Africa merely tell Of
desultory shell firing and the move
ments of patrols, though Cape Town
mentions the rumor that Gen. French
has captured 300 Beers.
Cape Town, February 2.-The prize
court has decided to make NO order Of
conf1scation in the case of the steamship
Mashona, at present, in order to give
her owners an opportunity to show
within three weeks that she had no in
tention to trade with the enemy. The
Mashona sailed from New York Novem-
ber 8 for Delagoa bay with a cargo of
general merchandise, including flour.
She was seized December 8 by the Brit
lsh war-ship Partridge.
London, February 2.-Sensational ru-
nnors are current that the militia ballot
act Is to be put in force February IA,

in-chief of the British forces in South
Africa. has cabled for 10000 additional
men, which, 1t Is added, the government
promised to give him, sending $4,000
militia volunteers and 10000 militia re-
serves. 1t Is also said that the volun-
teers will be mobilized forthwith. Tt Is
even asserted to-day that the cabinet
especially dealt with these matters. The
militia ballot act makes every unmar-
ried man between 1S and 30 years of age
liable to serve five years.

Forenoon and Afternoon.

IL is fact OF common observation, at
different times OF the year, that the fore
noon and afternoon, as to daylight, are OF
unequal length. Along in later autumn
the shortness Of the afternoons Is very
noticeable, and the shortness OF fore
moons along in later winter. Whatever
makes common facts more ineligible
adds to the genarsl intelligence and to
the general good. IL is to this end that
the following brief statements are made.
Nothing is more evident than that the
sun requires just as much time to go from
the eastern horizon TO the midday merid-
ian RS to go from that meridian to the
western horizon. Bat, strange to say.
there are but four days during the whole
year in which the sun reaches the midday
meridian at just twelve O'Clock. The true
noon point varies from about fifteen min
utes before to about sixteen minutes after
twelve O'Clock. These extreme points in
one set OF variations fall in the first week
OF November and in the second week of
February, not to designate exact days for
years in general.
The calendars show that in the latitufa
of Saratoga Essentially Boston latituc
on Novem Der g. 1898, the sun rose at -
and set at FIVE O'Clock, thereby maxi.
the forenoon a half hour longer than ii
afternoon, On that day the sun reacheu
the midday meridian at II i5. On Feb
ruary 10, 1899, the sun rose at just seven
O'Clock and set at $50, thereby making
the afternoon a half hour longer than the
forenoon, and on this day the sun reached
the midday meridian at 12.15 These are
facts plainly open to general view. and
therefore need no veritying.-C. F. Dotod,
in Appletons' Popular Science Monthly.

A Poetical Prisoner.

Early in December last Deputy. Sheriff
Bunker, of Winter Hsrbor, received word
that one Charles Darling WAS wanted for
larceny. Darling WAS in another town
working in the woods about ten miles
from Winter Harbor.
MIR. Bunker went after his man and got
III the woods near where Darling WAS at
work. Darling saw the deputy first, and
took to the woods like reindeer
A few days after, the deputy had him
located again, and after disguisine him
self with back " oodsmsn's clot hes aud cap
and false whi-kers, he had no trouble in
getting bis hand on the unsuspecting but
very much surprised man.
Darling was taken to Bar Hsrbor and
pleaded guilty to the charge against him,
and was sent to the county Jail In Ellis
worth for three months.
Recently as he was about TO be locked
in for the night he handed the following
warning to Sheriff Hooper:
WARNING.
! want to tell the people OF Winter IIarhor,
Maine
About their noted deputy. and Bunker Ia his
name.
He is a dandy at Disgusting, he viii change his
face complete,
SO you would never know him II you met him
on the street
But fooled him, yes fooled him
AT least thought had,
But, friends, just let me tell you.
| never got left so bad.
The time thought fooled him
Was on the fret day OF December
And the misery Of the next few days,
think always will remember.
! travelled over hills and valleys
Through the snow, and through the slush
Till was weary, near to fanting
And he caught me. ne did, by gosh
Now am lying here In Ellsworth.
In the Hancock county jail.
So, friends, when you come to Ellsworth,
Come and see me-do not fail.
Now, young men, from me take warning.
And when you the law offend
just steer clear OF Winter Harbor.
For Bunker will catch you in the end.
-Chas. H. Darling.
