Abdul-Hamid sometimes acts in cold

When premeditated, his punishments
are more refined and subtle; then for

Prince Hamid represented in a portrait
taken of him at the time he mounted

His jaws have grown broader, giving
to his face coarseness it did not have
before; the cheek bones, formerly un-

hollow cheeks which have been covered
for more than 20 years by a short beard,
not quite gray, and which he himself
dyes various shades of brown and
brownish red with a mixture of cof-
fee and gall-nut, the recipe for which
was given him by shiek.
His forehead bulges out slightly, and
he conceals his badness under the
enormous fez which he has made fash

AGAINST ADRIAN ABEYTA.
Sheriff Baca lsviss Upon Property
to Satisfy a Judgment.
FIRST NATIONAL BANK SUIT.

A furry of excitement was caused
in Socorro last Friday at about noon
wnen q, became known that Sheriff
Leandro Baca had levied upon appar-
emily all property belonging to Abran
Abeyta, ex-collector and treasurer of
Socorro county. to satisfy a judgment
obtained the day before by the First
National bank of Albuquerque, says
the Socorro Chieftain. The Judgment
was issued against Abran Abeyta,
Ricardo Abeyta, and Victor sails to Sc
cure the payment of notes amounting
to a little over $40, 900. There was also
a separate Judgment for 50, 200 against
Ricardo Abeyta. Attorney James G..
Fitch, of this city. represents the cred
itors.
This event is by no means a sur
prise. In fact it has been expected
quite generally in the city. Abran and
Ricardo Abeyta left for Albuquerque to
try to arrange with their creditors. and
the wish is expressed even by the
formers political enemies in the re-
cent bitter campaign that he may sue.
coed in staying the execution of une
Judgment. Should he not succeed in
doing so there are other creditors who
will doubtless suffer losses that they
can Ill afford to suffer. $50 a.
Of course there is considerable spec
u%lation as to what bearing if any this
event may have upon Mr.. Abeyta's
final settlement with Socorro county.
He has not yet made his final report
and settlement with the county com.
missioners and has been given until
Monday to do SO. His official bonds
men have employed Attorney H. M.
Dougherty to protect their interests in
the matter and that gentleman also
went to albuquerque in the discharge
of such duty.
The affair is an exceedingly unfor-
tunate one to all concerned, and it is
to be hoped that 1t may yet be arrang-
ed satisfactorily.

PROFESSORS RESIGNED.
Massrs. lenker and Nicholson Quit
the School Service.
WILL 60 INTO REAL ESTATE BUSINESS.

A special meeting of the school
board was called and held at the
central school building Saturday night
for the purpose of considering and &C.
cepting designations rendered by Pro-
fessor L. G. Lenker, principal of the
high school, and Professor c. T. Mich
olson, principal of the Second ward
schl. 1t was probably the best at
tended meeting held during the pres
ent school term, Trustee Dodd being
the only member of the board absent.
The business of the meeting was
called and the designations of Profes.
sors Lenker and Nicholsn were accept
ed. Professor Lenker's. resignation was
rendered last Tuesday and will take
effect in two weeks. Professor Mich.
olson's resignation was handed in on
Saturday and will take effect in two
weeks, February 80
Several applications were before the
board Saturday night from parties
wishing to fill vacancies and were con-
sidered. but the board declined to &C.
cept any of them until after they were
considered further. By mutual con-
sent the members present agreed to
meet on call of the president.
There was a rumor u yesterday
that Professors Lenker and Nicholson.
were resigning because of difficulties
had with other members of the faculty.
This m was investigated this
morning by a Citizen representative
and found to be without a foundation.
President Hopkins, of the school
board, said this morning that the two
resigning professors had come to him
and explained that they wished to 90
into business and inquired of him as to
or not he thought the board
would accept their designations. Mr..
Hopkins also said that he was sure
that no difficulty had come up between
the faculty and that the designations
were rendered merely as a business
proposition.
Professor Nicholson was seen and
said that Professor Lenker and he had
formed a partnership and expected to
in the real estate business. He
positively denied that there was n
contention whatever between himself
and any of the faculty of the school

PROVES IT'S UTILITY AGAIN.
.Marconirram Enables New York city
Attorney to Serve Notice
Of Suit at Sea.

The corporation counsel Of New
York city is delighted over the man
ner in which he notified w. R. Hearst
of $4,000 damage suit against him
and the city arising from the explo-
sion of part Of Hearst's fireworks dis
play in Madison square on election
night, through which many were
killed and wounded. This is the first
time the wireless telegraph has been
used to serve notice in damage suit.
It was necessary to serve the notice
in such way that the fact would
not be open to a dispute in court.
Mr.. Hearst was on the ocean, SO it
was decided to send the message
while the ship was still at sea, in
view Of the fact that its receipt on
the steamship would be noted by the
Marconi operator on board and It
would be an easy matter to get an
affidavit showing that the notice was
actually served. The message was
first cabled to Queenstown and from
there forwarded to the Marconi sta
ton at the Lizard, to be sent aboard
the ship.
The fact that the message was re-
ceived and delivered was verified
when the ship reached port at New
York

TO HUNT TREASURE IN LAKE.
Company II Organized to Recover
Valuable Portions of Wrecks
In Lake Huron.

One Of the most thoroughly organ
lied hunts for lost treasure ever at
tempted on the great lakes is to be
made on Lake Huron, where the Mil.
waukee Wrecking company is prepar-
ing to search for the hulks Of vessels.
Representatives Of the company have
chartered the tug Phoenix, of Oscoda,
Mich, and, with another vessel to aid
her, will seek wealth among the wrecks
dotting the lake bottom six or seven
miles of the Oscoda shore.
Officials of the company refuse infor-
nation on their exact plans, but it is
said they have in mind number of
valuable cargoes known to lie on the
bottom of Lake Huron in that vicinity.
One of the most valuable cargoes is a
large one of copper, lost in the early
days of lake navigation. Another is Of
steel ingots, and. still another is a car
60 Of whisky lost in schooner bound
for Mackipaw many years ago. The
Milwaukee concern is the one that Sc
cured the copper cargo of the steamer
Pewabic, off Alpena, after it had been
in the water nearly 40 years.

Even il the grafters in the Indian
Territory have gobbled up most Of
the good things down that way, it is
not too late for an investigation. The
remnant might be saved, and some of
the fat grafterS might be forced to

Many months ago, as the secretary
Of the interior stated, the attention
of the government was called to the
operations of the grafters. No action
was taken either to prevent the wrong
or to punish the wrong doors. Now
that the grafters have stolen nearly
everything worth stealing they will
be able to stave off investigation and
trial until the statute Of Limitations
has barred all criminal proceedings.
Some Of the postottlce boodlers have
taken advantage of that statute and
are. now living luxuriously on the
stealage. Rcpu blican administrations
propose much but accomplish little in
the punishment of boodlers and gov
eminent thieves. There is good deal
of talk about honesty and other things,
but mighty little is done. AS the
president often said: "Talk without

When Everybody Grabs.

When the tariff pie is opened every
body rlshes to Washington for his
piece, and congressman have become
used to voting for this schedule or
that simply in order to give them
selves or their constituents chance.
From such legislation it is short
step to the struggle for share Of the
appropriations. These very Glovers-
vile people whom Congressman Lit
taur represents so perfectly have been
among the most persistent beggars for
tariff favors. II Congressman Lit
tauer will vote for tariff schedule
that puts money into the pockets OF
Littauer Brothers, he does not show
much grosser improperly when he
thrusts his finger into an army con-
tract.
When such an example is set by SEN
tors and representatives, the democrat
ization in the postal department. and
in other branches OF the government
is inevitable. When everybody isgrab-
bling, the postal clerk sees no reast n
why he should withhold his hand. by
a stroke OF the pen he can win 40 per
cent of the profit on mail bags; and he
makes the stroke. With such fat
plums dropping from every tree abou
he regards himself as model Of self
restraint If he merely helps his sons
or other relatives into positions with
firms to which he can show favors in
return. He almost comes to think that
he deserves warm praise for not rob.
