slant death OF any man who has had
the misfortune TO offend him.
The probability is that the sultan is
badly advised. He is, of course, a des-
pot in the worst sense of the word, yet
he has his Limitations. His viii is alb
solute, and his owe 20 kill within the
confines Of his own dOminions has no
bounds, but he must not do anything
that is contrary TO the accepted truths
of the Mohammedan religion. All the
sayings that are attributed to Ma
hOmet are binding on him. The clip
ping of his wings in this respect. how
ever. does not inconvenience him
greatly. He can grind down his sub
jects and yet be religious-or affect
to be.
The suItan's chief advisers are the
grand vizier, who is the head Of the
government, and the shiek-ul-Islam,
the head of the church. Both these
officers are appointed by his majesty
himself. The grand vizier is in con-
~sultatiOn with h sultan almOs daily,
and it is by this dignitary that Tur-
key is really governed.
It is interesting to note that all Mus
sulmans over 20 ear of age are liable
to compulsory military service. and
that liability continues in force for
twenty years. Observation-Disclosures,
however. are free from this burden. By
way of a return for the privilege they
pay a tax OF six shillings a head.
The sultan, by-the-bye. is not a fight
ing man. He would not lead his troops
if he could, for no n is better aware
than his majesty that were he to yer
ture forth on campaigning bent it
would be a hundred to one that he
would be shot down before he reached
the battlefield
