NO DESIGNS ON TURKEY
Grand Duke Nicholas Was Only Paying
a Call of Courtesy
to Sultan.

An official explanation has been re-
ceived here from st. Petersburg of the
reason for the visit of the Grand Duke
Nicholas to Constantinople in Russian
warship. e
The visit was for the purpose of pay
ing call of courtesy on the Sultan and
to thank him formally for his considera-
tion in permitting the erection of
Russian church at a place in the Bal
kans where one of the great battles o.
the Russian-Turkish war was fought.
The explanation will greatly relieve the
anxiety of European powers.

Advises Retrospection.

LET US look at the situation as :,
existed then When the strike began,
If any OF the miners, or breaker boys
or engineers, or firemen, had been dis
missed from their positions, without just
cause for dismissal, and the organiza-
tion had taken the cause up for the
men that had been dismissed-had taken
il to various companies for considera-
tion-would those companies have said,
We will submit this question TO ar
bitration, and abide by the decision OF
the arbitrators?
There is not local union in the an
thracite region that would not have ac-
cepted their proposition. Not one. Now
then, the question raised is in antici-
patton of the dismissal of some of the
men. You have not returned to work:
you do not know yet whether or not
you are going 10 be dismissed from the
positions you occupied before the strike
But you are anticipating what may pos
sibly occur. Yet, although you are an
you have already secured a
by which the question of dis
missal of those men, If they are dis
missed, will be submitted to arbitra-
iion. And the operators have agreed
to abide by the decision of the arbi-
traitors.

The Miners Own Proposition.

"If l recollect distinctly-and l think
my memory goes back for five months
the miners of the anthracite coal re-
gion had certain grievances that they
complained of. They drafted those griev-
ances into the form of resolutions and
presented them to their employers for
adjustment; and when the employers
refused to accept the propositions made
by the miners, then the miners went a
step further and said: We will submit
this entire question to arbitration and
abide by the decision of the arbi-
traitors
These were the two things that We
laid down in the beginning of the strug
gle. During the time the struggle was
on the employers said: We will not
concede anything; We will not arbitrate,
and the miners cannot return to work
until there is az unconditional surren-
der Within the past two weeks the
operators have entirely changed their
position upon that point and they now
say they are willing to submit this mat.
your demands made when the strike be-
gan. Then when the operators say they
are willing TO submit TO arbitration the
question arises. Shall We accept the
that we ourselves made
when the struggle began?

An Directors Plant.
The objectors were in force. Several
we're heard and one cried in a tone of
hopelessness there was no mistaking:
Well, it's hard dose to swallow,
but it seems the best step that We can
take, and / guess We have TO take it"
The note OF defeat and dependency
and utter resignation in his voice made
a moments impressive silence. Then
up jumped National Secretary Wilson,
the man of silence" as he is called,
and he spoke as the mouthpiece of the
organization, as Mitchell, being chair
man. could not speak.
1T seems a rather peculiar position
for any of the delegates in this conven-
tion to take" he said, after they have
gene through struggle for five months
and have secured as result of that
struggle the acceptance of the terms of
a settlement that they laid down when
the strike began-that 1t is a hard dose

FLOWER AND TREE.

Fruit trees and fruit require potash
for their best development.
with house plants all extreme
changes Of temperature should be
avoided.
Too many trees prevent rapid growth
and extend the time when grove is
well shaded.
Grapevines like their roots to be near
the surface, and the food for them
should not be placed at too great
depth.
Small growth and too much small
fruit go together. Thrifty growth fur
nishes a few large and fine specimens
of fruit.
There is no use In growing a tree
very tall. The top limbs are apt TO be-
come slender and break If fruit is pro-
duced on them.
All members OF the poppy family are
hard to transplant. By choosing
rainy day and not exposing the roots
one can sometimes manage a trans
ference.
Avoid straight lines as much as rossi-
BILE. There is no straight line in nature.
1t is for this reason that groups and
masses are so much better than formal
or set beds.

CoIOrsd Straw Hats Fashionable

Coiored straw hats are more fashion,
able than black, and all black hats are
not nearly so popular as they were last
year. Light colored straw hats are
very dainty and fresh in coloring and
are trimmed with curious contrasts OF
color. A pale blue straw with pikinsh
heliotrope flowers is a daring combi-
nation for any one not blessed with
dazzling complexion and fair hair to
attempt, and yet this combination Is a
fashionable one. The blue hats with
green, and the blue and green combined
are very smart; a pale shade OF blue
and a vivid shade Of pink; blue straw
with pink rosettes; a purple straw tthis
not often SEEM with queer blue flowers
OF a pale blue shade are considered e8-
tremely smart and are certainly dis
tinctive enough to be popular.
With broad hats and narrow brim-
med hats. with fiat hats and high bats
that is, as high as are now worn-are
seen the long wells. 4 bit Of lace or
chiffon floating at the back, made by
che ends OF the long veil, which is gem
orally worn thnOwn back from the face,
seems TO be necessary for the average
woman's peace OF mind, and, as a rule,
ssftens the hard lines of the stiff straws
most charmingly.

Notes From Woman's Realm

black white and all colors, is one Of
the latest preferences in Paris. A
gown Just brought over, dupllcae Of
one made for the Grand Prix, consists
of alternate panels of white old Eng
lish embroidery and Valencienles lace
over pale pink taffeta. The embroid-
cred panels, which are short. are I'm
ished at the bottom with Irish crochet.
A black lace bertha and touches Of
black on the bodice are repeated IL
diamond shaped medallions Of white
crepe. etched with black silk, placed
at intervals on the panels OF the skirt.
IL is pretty certain that mantles for
fall will have sweeping lines and will
fall from the shoulders like robes.
There IS no doubt that velvets viii
be worn to an extent not seen for
/ years; and, in fact, that everything
royal" like purple and ermine, will
/ be in vogue. A richer period in dress
is predicted for the coming winter than
has ever been known in this country.
The newest thing from Paris FOR
evening dresses is white pOngee,
trimmed with Irish lace. Habit pack
skirts are still 30 the fore ard are
palmer than ever, absolutely no ful-
ness being used in the newest ones,
Five gowns sent to Saratoga this week
were all made in this style
Perpendicular 'istrippings" OF velvet
have succeeded the beading and riDbOl.
llaciAg so long in vogue. A charming
example of this was seen recently On
the veranda of summer hotel The
costume was of fowered muslin. Above
the deep fiounce of the skirt was a
lGrecian border of perpendicular strips
of soft blue baby velvet ribbon lhe
outer edges of the border were out
lined with cream applique lace. The
bodice of a loose blouse efc;t, was
trimmed horizontally with two Of tie
lGreclan borders, the top one forming
a yoke. The other was on the bust
line. The borders were finished at The
front in loops Of velvet, which fell over
the chiffon vest. The girdle was OF
blue louisine silk.
This style Of garniture has already
seen a number of variations, the per-
pendicular "strppings' in tub dresses
being made of folds of the cotton or
linen. A hand loom pOngee OF one OF
, the heavy irregular weaves Is trimmed
with bands Of black velvet "striIplngs,'
headed with Russian lace.
Piuue OF linen and dotted swiss IL
combination have been an innovation
in outing suits this year. The large
dots have been best liked, and the
larger the better. The swiss is used
for lapels, founce and shirtwaist under
the severe coat. High girdles are seen
on all the new costumes.
In trimming, taffeta bands and
strips and Oriental bands of embroid-
cry are as much used as ever. \ smart

WHILE WE SLEEP.
The Muscles and Organs of the Body
Are stilI working.


Are StilI working.
If the organs Of the body cannot be
said TO sleep. neither can the voluntary
muscles. Witness the phenomena of
sleepwalking, the positions in stage
coach days who slept in their saddles
and cavalrymen who do it today, in
fantry who have been known to sleep
on forced marches, sentinels who walk
their beats carrying their guns In a
fixed. position while they sleep. For
ali we know policemen may do It too.
People who talk I'm their sleep are IA
miliar to all of us. Experiments made
by Speir, Armstrong and Child on 200
college students of both sexes showed
that AZ per cent of the men and 81
per cent of the women talked In their
sleep a number Of things might be
proved by these statistics. OF these
sleep takers one-half Of the women
and One-third of the men are able to
answer questions while asleep More
women than men could answer ques-
tions on any subject, not alone that Of
which they had been talking. 1t has
also been found that most sleep talk
ers are under twenty-five years Of age.
Evidently, then. with the muscles
and organs of the body all working, it
IS the brain only that sleeps. and by
no means all of the brain. The senses
OF sight, hearing touch, smell and
taste may be very much awake while
the subject sleeps. A sleeping person
hears and answers questions, rear
ranges his bedclothlng, covers his eyes
to keep out the light. draws away his
hand when the experimenter tickles II.
A child As broken of the habit Of suck
ing his thumb while asleep by putting

The nerves, then, and the brain CEN
tiers corresponding to them are awake.
