LONG CHANCE FOR LIBERTY
Turkish Girl Escapes from Harem
and swimS to an Ameri-
can Yacht.

Copyright, 1902. by Press Publishing Coz
PARIS, April 12.-(New York World Ca
blegram-Special Telegram.)-The Ameri-
can yacht Wanderer, which has Just reached
Constantinople with a party, including It's
owner Mrs. Marster, Miss Robinson, Mr..
and Mrs. Storey and Mr.. Blagdon, has
been drydocked for cleaning. A member
Of the party writes to the World corre-
spondent this strange story:
On leaving Hudania, on the south shore
OF the Sea OF Marmora, few days back,
the yacht stopped outside the harbor to
leave the pilot, when those on board saw
a human being swimming toward the boat
from the land, but so far out that 1t seemed
incredible that any one could be capable
of such endurance. The yacht waited and
soon the passengers were able to perceive
that the swimmer was a native girl, who
was followed by a dog.
A boat was launched and picked up the
girl and dog, both utterly exhausted. The
girl explained through the pilot, who alone
understood her language, that she had
escaped from a harem of a resident ol
Broussa. and that the faithful canine hat
followed her. The yacht then proceeded
taking along the girl. Her name is Leyia
She is II years old and seems bright She
will be taken to America for education.

Continue at Paris your patriotic mis-

the greater number of salons Of Paris are
very hostile to us. It is now the fashion
In France to be as much more papish as
one believes less in the principles that
the papacy represents, but, like all that
depends on fashion and not truth, these
prejudices will rapidly disappear. Espe-
cially II someone like you, possessing to an
eminent degree the gift Of emotion and
persuasion, goes out to preach the truth
to a society which, whatever may be Its
faults. knows better than any other how
to appreciate genius and virtue.

NO PLACE TO SEEK PLEASURE
Third Glass Passengers on Siberian
Railroad Freeze to Death

Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Coz
ST. PETERSBURG. April 12.-(New York
World Cablegram-Special Telegram.)-
Travel on the Great Siberian railway still
has many drawbacks, but ,one of the great
est is the discomfort to which third class
passengers, especially native Chinese, are
subjected. The winter has been unusually
severe this year, yet the rolling stock is
so inadequate that the Chinese ride in open
freight cars. In January and February,
when the thermometer registers from 80
to 80 degrees below the freezing point, the
Chinese sat in crowds in the open cars
and frequently froze to death. On one
terrible night in February fifteen Chinese
perished and about $50 others suffered ter
ribly from frostbites and exposure.

OF these the cardinal point and the hard
est for Great Britain TO concede is the
granting OF amnesty TO the cape rebels, not
so much because Of British opposition, bu.
owing to colonial opposition in South Al

believe that this is not a semi -oficial sum

to think they may be modified.
