"DICKi" CRIED The WOMAN.
Street Car Passengers Get a Glimpse
of u Touching Romance In
Army Life.

A sallow, emaciated young man
who looked as if he had just got up
from n severe fit Of lllacss boarded
a Madison avenue ear in Forty-second
street the other afternoon and sat
down opposite pretty girl. He car
ried n bag that seemed big load
for him and he apparently didn't no
tice the girl until he had leaned back
in his seat after arranging the bag
under his legs, says the New York
Sun.
Then swiftly he sat upright again
and looked little alarmed, like man
who is not sure of himself after the
visions of fever. In moment. how
ever. the alarm was gone and he
stared at her in way that reminded
you OF n thirsty man drinking water.
The girl couldn't help but feel his
gaze and turned her eyes TO him cold
ly and then looked coldly away. A
mere ghost of color showed in the
young mans cheek. Then he smiled
foolishly and continued to stare at the
young woman with so much fcrvor
that she finally turned her face toward
him again with little flirt of annoy
| ance.
The young man, apparently, was
| quite shameless. He met her eyes
| squarely. She lowered them and be-
gan to look him over with disdain. He
laughed again, foolishly. Nearby
passengers showed that they shared
the young womans Indignation by
this time, but he was such a scarecrow
of man that their wonder was per-
haps stronger than their anger.
The young woman's eyes travelled
witheringly from his head to his feet
and then started on the return jour
ney. There is no treatment more
| blighting to a masher than this. The
scarecrow idgeted under the gaze and
laid his hands nervously on his knees.
On one of the fingers of the left hand
was curiously chased gold ring. 1t
was so loose that 1t looked as If it
would surely fall of were the young
man to hold his fingers downward.
The ring caught the girls eyes in pass
ing, and the eyes widcned suddenly,
then flashed from the ring to the
young man 5 face and back again.
The scarecrow smiled once more,
/ foolishly, but there was n curious mist
in his eyes. The pretty girl gazed
| for an instant into his face exactly
rs he had been gazing at her.
Dick" said the pretty girl.
! 1t would take too many columns to
tell all she said in the word, but be-
fore il was quite out she was sitting
beside him and had the hand with the
ring on it. The rest of the passengers
didn't seem to count.

UNITED STATES AND TURKEY.
How the Aoslems Were Brought to
Book o. an Iade maity
Claim.

Several years ago. when Turkish
mobs were numbering Armenians in
Asia Minor. they looted and burned
the buildings of Euphrates college at
Harpoot. There was no one to take
up the cause of the Armenians, but
Euphrates college was an American
Institution. established by American
money and carried on by American
missionaries, says Youths Compan-
ION.
The destruction Of this property
and of similar property at Marash be
came the basis for claim for indemn-
ity which the government of the Unit
ed States Immediately brought
against Turkey, and has been pressing
at intervals ever since. 1t was long
time before the sultan was induced to
admit responsibility, and longer
time before he was brought to the
point of promising payment. But in
the Turkish scheme of affairs, promise
and performance are often a long way
apart
A few weeks ago the battleship Ken
lucky dropped anchor of Smyrna, and
nople to visit the American charge
d'affaires. While he Was there the
long standing account, was settled;
not directly, but under cover of con
tract for building a cruiser in the
United States, the missionary claims
4. ,,,tA -.
About this time a new question
arose. The Turkish government re-
fused to give its exequater, OF official
recognition, to DR.. Norton, whom the
United States had appointed consul at
Harpoot. If it had objected to him as
persona non grata, its objection must
have sufficed, and new consul would
| have been designated; but its objec-
tion was to recognizing any consul
there. Turkey is bound by treaty to
allow American consulates to be es-
tablished wherever commerce re-
quires them. bHt it holds that there is
no commerce az Harpoot. 1t is also
bound by treaty to give the United
States the same treatment as the
"most favored nation;" and as it has
recognized British consul at Har-
moot, the American claim for consul
there rests both on treaty and prece-
lent.
Turkey pursued the same course
when the United States commissioned
consul at Erzeroum, another mis-
sionary and educational center in
Asia Minor, where large numbers of
Armenians were massacred. But the
consul went to ErZeroum notwith-
standing, and DR.. Norton has gone to

road was rapid. He left the paymas- ter's position to take service under his father, George s.

He served that road in several capacities, and had much to do with looking after the right of way, and afterward be- came purchasing agent, with head quarters at Omaha.
 Mir. Harris left the Burlington to become superint endent of the Atch- ison &5 Nebraska, with headquarters at Atchison. The Burlington & Mis- souri River again sought his services, and he became successively assistant general freight agent and general freight agent for that road, with headquarters in Denver. In 1882 he accepted the position of purchasing agent for the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, which position he left to be- come a salesman for the iron firm Of John B. Ayers Sons.

In the interests of the Santa Fe he carried on difficult and successful negotiations with the Mexican government regarding the Sonora road, which was then owned by the Santa Fe. Having completed that work, he went to Topeka as as- sistant to General Manager A. A. Robinson. of the Santa Fe.
 From October to November, 1885, he was assistant to the president of the Chicago, Burlington & ortshern, now of the Burlington system, and with headquarters in St. Paul he had entire charge of the construction of that road.
 From November. 1885, to June, 1890, he was vice president and general manager of the Chicago, Burlington & Northern. The latter road was sold to the Burlington, and on June 1, 1890, MT.
