New Grip on Manehuria.

st. Petersburg. Aug 15.--In official
circles here much satisfaction is ex-
pressed at the separation of Russias
far eastern domains from the immedi-
ate administrative control of st. Pc
tersburg by the appointment of Vice
Admiral AleXieff as viceroy of the Amur
district and the Kwangtung province.
The appointment is one of the results
OF the recent conferences OF Russian
naval and military authorities at Port
Arthur. The change VIII facilitate the
governments purpose to secure for
Russia a permanent outlet in the Gulf
Of Pechili.
No alteration will be made in the
technical status of Manchuria by the
appointment of viceroy but the pres
ence of such an official VIII be an intt-
nation that Russia does not intend TO
permit the province to pass back into
Chinese possession. Russian officials
n,aintain that the car has as much
right to secure for his empire an exit
into ice-free waters as Jefferson, Madi-
son or Monroe had to force their way
thru the French and Spanish barriers.

The Case of Professor Tenekijian.

The American Board has bad news
from Kurdistan. Professor Tenekijian.
who has filled the chair OF Turkish,
Greek and Persian in Euphrates COL
lege Harpoot, a missionary college, is
in a Turkish prison under charges of
plotting against the sultan. 1t Is given
out from the mission rooms that his
jailers have been trying to starve and
torture him Ono details of the torture)
nto a false confession that the Ameri
can missionaries are political conspira-
tors and that he learned it from than.
1t Is predicted that the next news Cum
less prompt steps are taken) will be
that he has died of fever" 1t is ex-
planned that this is the official euphe-
mism current in that part OF the world
when announcement prisoners are poi
soned or strangled to death In the dun

Professor Tenekiiian is about so
years old. Turkish subject, scholarly,

Yellowstone National Park.

''The Yellowstone Park is something
absolutely unique in this world, as far
as l know. Nowhere else in any civil
ICED country is there to be found such
q tract of veritable wonderland. made
accessible to all visitors. where at the
same time not only the scenery of the
wilderness, but the wild creatures .of
the park, are scrupulously preserved"
President Roosevelt.
This delightful spot IS more easily
reached via the Union Pacific than by
any other line. The stage ride from
Monida. by the splendid Concord
coaches of the Monica & Yellowstone
Stage Company, is thru scenery hardly
inferior to the park itself
The popular route to the Yellowstone
Park is now via the Union Pacific.
Very low rates during June, July and

Eruptions of Vesuvius and Earthquakes
Create a Panic.

Eruptions of Vestlvius and Earthquakes
Create a Panic.
Rome. Aug. 1t.--Nesuvius is again
causing intense alarm in the surround
ing region, the eruptions of the volcano
being heavy yesterday. This alarming
activity which followed the shocks OF
the earthquake is augmenting. The de-
donations are very loud and almost con-
tinuous, while from a fresh opening at
the base of the principal crater, two
streams of lava are issuing, which,
within a few hours, covered large
tract OF ground. One stream has COW
cred ground already arid from previous
eruptions, but the other is going swift
ly towards the village of ottajano, the
direction taken by the famous eruption
of 1872.
The whole district around the volcano
is shaken by frequent earthquake
shocks. and a perfect panic prevails,
the population crowding the churches
TO pray or gathering in open spaces
for safety. Experts, however. affirm
that SO far there is no reason for a SER
ious disaster.

Ministers, WeII-Trained Sons.
[Pacific Churchman.]


Not the least gift of the American
clergy (and their wives) has been the
training of their sons. Think for a
moment of Emerson, whose ancestors
had been ministers for five generations.
James Russell Lowell started from a
minister's home. Oliver Wenaeii
Holmes learned to tune his Tyre in his
fathers parsonage. Henry Ward
Beecher sprang from the loins of q
grand old minister of brain and
Drawn.
Looking at the records of literature
in England we find the same thing.
Addison. Thomson. Goldsmith, Coler-
idge, Young Cowper. Montgomery,
Heber and Tennyson, We're sons of the
prophets" and withal hymn writer's
and great poets. Turning to philosophy
you have the same story. Dugald
Stewart, Reid, Abercrombie and Ben
than were parsons sons.
In general literature we ind multi
tudes of ministers sons-Swift, Ma
caulay, Thackeray, kingsley and
Matthew Arnold were clergymen's
sons.
OF the more recent past or still living
are such men as Lord Charles Beres-
ford, Lord Curzon, Cecil Rhodes, w. L.
stead, Anthony Hope, r. d. Blackmore,
Henry James, Marcus Dods and Grant
Allen Such names as these, supple :
mented by thousands less conspicuous
but none the less useful, that can be
found in any American or English
work OF national biography, will stand
as an abiding witness that ministers
sons turn out--and they turn out we'll.

doors Of Flowers.

It is remarkable fact that although
there are nearly or quite 100000 flow
ering plants known the relative num-
Der having odor Is wonderfully small,
not more than 10 per cent, in fact. In
connection with this 1t is noteworthy
that because one species Of flower is
endowed with sweet odor it does not
necessarily follow that all or nearly
all or even fair proportion of the
other species Of the same family will
be as favorably endowed. An illustra-
ton of this is found In the familiar
mignonette. There are some fifty spe'
cies OF this genus known. and of them
oil, but one has any fragrance. Nor Is
it certain that the most insignificant
looking flower has the greatest fra
GRANGE or the most gorgeously colored
likely to be without odor, thus seem
ingly disprovfng the theory that color
and fragrance are given flowers for
the purpose Of attracting insects to
assist in cross fertilization.

DR.. Barton says he knows the professor
well. and knows he has always been a
legal subject of the sultan. His only
sorship in Euphrates College; and the
other professors there a:e now alarmed.
The American consul at Harpoot.
Thomas II. Norton. insisted upon see
ing Professor Tenskijian In the prison.
Colleagues in the faculty and kinsmen
have seen him. The report at the mis-
sion rooms Is that they find him sadly
aged ard broken down under his suf-
ferings and fear for his life. Appar-
emily they are indebted to Minister
John G. A. Leishman at Constantinople
for their permits to visit the prison.
Recently the Boston Advertiser pub
lished an interesting dispatch from
Oyster Bay; we give the substance of
1t. The authorities at the mission
rooms brought Professor Tenekijian's
case to the notice of the president.
Complaint-"bitter' complaint was
made of Leishmans irertness. The
president asked John Hay about Leish-
man. The secretary replied that Leish-
man was one of Senator Quay's con-
lTIDutloHS 10 INC SCISiCs. WAOiCu poii,
according to the Advertisers CORE :
spondent. Mr.. Roosevelt said: IF
Leishman wants to keep his place, he
wants to follow this matter up; you tell
him that from me-" The secretary said
that Leishman would probably see the
sultan with regard to Professor Tene-
lijian. There wants to be no 'proba-
bly, about It," broke In Mr.. Roosevelt,
according to the CORES pondent. Tell
HIM that the American colleges stand
for the American government, and we
stand by them. Leishman wants to un :
derstand from the start (here the presi-
dent strobe up and down the room)
that as he deals with this matter | deal
with him. Why, It's plain on its face
that we can't stand this. We absolute
lv can't stand for 1t In the face of this
Boston story
The arrest of the Harpoot professor
certainly has the look of rank tn5us-
tice and outrage. The report that ne
has been subjected to barbarous treat
ment is quite credible; Turkish prisons
are not pleasant places. The warmth
OF the presidents sympathies and emo
tons do him, personally. very great
credit. 1t Is devoutly to be wished -
more devoutly than ever since the af-
fair of the petition to the czar-that
the details of diplomatic business with
foreign governments may be left In the
capable and discreet hands OF Secretary
John Hay.
