Washington Letter,
(From Our Rcgulsr Correspondent }

Washington, d. c., Aug. 81.
Excitement ran high in official
circles in Washington during the
past week at the news that Vice
Consul Magelseen at Beirut, Syria,
had been assassinated and as soon as
the information reached Oyster Bay
the President ordered the European
squadron to proceed at once to Turk
iSh waters. Later information soon
followed the first report, however,
saying that the Vice Consul
had not been killed but had
been fired at, that the shots
failed to take effect, the misorcant
had been arrested and the Turkish
officials had made all due apologies.
Meanwhile. the feet is on the way
to Genoa, where it will have to pro

that the squadron will! proceed II to

The situation i'll Turkey is appre.
clated to be exceedingly grave and
1T is known that the government is
hard put to maintain any semb]ancc
Of order in many portions of the
Empire. Meanwhile, Great Britain
is understood to deplore the prompt
action of this government in order

M Mediterranean because it is feared |
that such action will encourage the
rebels. 10 many persons familiar

OUR TREADMTLL LIVES.

Tell your friend you mean to spend your life fighting for money and power and he will, if he be an average man, applaud your decision; tell him you mean to dwell in the country, gaining a simple livelihood from your labor, and he will either not believe you mean it, or will conclude you are beat en competitor in the city's race Most people do not know they are slaves of their modern Improvements, so-called. They build houses larger than they can occupy-for show; they pinch and scrape year after year to pay for them, and after that continue pinching to pay taxes, repairs and other mainten- ance charges. A large house demands expensive furniture. Then fine dress. And the demands increase. The man keeps his nose on the grindstone, the woman wears herself out taking care of the fine feathers No time to just live and enjoy it; got to make a show f1rst-going to take real rest, and cut off the little vanities. next winter next summer-some other time when matters are not quite so pressing. I am not exactly q loafer, but I like Walt Whitman best of all our Ameri- can writers, because he has sense enough to loaf and invite his soul'' once in while. I am tired of hearing the everlasting preachers of .sstren- uous" life. 60 slower and you'll 20 farther and enjoy 1t better Don't live to work.

BLIND MEN IN INDIANA.

study of Indana's blind popula- tion establishes the fact that if prop erly trained the blind are seff-support- ing, and that they get a great deal of pleasure out of life. Tn every part of the state there are blind men and wp- men who are making marked financial as well as social successes, though bad ly handicapped. Many are in the nrer- cantile lines; large number are teach ing music or are tuning pianos, or both Indiana has two blind men who have been admitted to the bar: three who are eminent preachers. The state has blind poets, authors. music composers and newspaper workers. Therc are blind mechanics in Indiana. blind in- vendor and many blind industrial work, CTS. Tn the list of seaf-supporters one finds commercial travellers, book agents and train 'tboy" Blind men conduct groceries. broom factories. real estate and loan agencies, justice courts and news stands. Some have amassed for tunes and have retired from business One blind man is "globe trotter" h. diana was the first or the second state To elect blind man to the office of jus tire of the peace, and she has one of the two blind justices in this country to-day. -Jndianapoli News.

The trolley strike has got to point here it seems to be a question of en- durance. Manager Sewell seems to be as determined as ever to do as he pleases about the questions at issue. and the strikers are more determined, if it were possible, not to give in or re- cede one particle from their former position. In the meantime the great majority of the people are walking. The weather we have been getting of late has been playing into the com pany's hands, and yet very few people are riding. They have got into the habit of walking and perhaps when the trouble is eventually settled they will keep 1t up. The numerous acci- dents the past week or two will also deter many people from riding. The one on the Watertown road yesterday was the most serious of all, and that it was not worse is a miracle. Motor men in other cities have been arrested and punished for running down people in the manner in which MT Benjamin and his family were upset and injured The position of motorman is one that should be filled by intelligent, clear headed men, and Manager Sewell will win more passengers over to his side by having less of these accidents.

It is a pity that the race question cannot be taken out of politics, says one writer, for as race recently e1nancipated savages schould have no standing of a political nature in any civilized community. AS individuais, they should receive every attention and encouragement that their private character entities them to, but this they will never get as long as the in dividual claims are mixed with the claims of a race that is only one re- moved from the barbarism of the Dark Continent.

In discussing the Venezuelan affair a writer in a New York paper says Germany seems determined to make the muddle as ugly as possible, and thus irritate England by every fresh step. The renewed bombardment of the Venezuelan fort, which guards against them the last ship of the re- public's navy, was nothing but an out rage, in view of the fact that Ger many had already accepted our good offices to secure a peace. 1t is true that the German commander of the warship Panther says he was first fired upon by the fort. If he was, it must have been because he was try ing to cross the bar to attack the Venezuelan ship, and thus provoked a response from the guns of the repub- lie. And it certainly is significant that this bombardment coincided so exactly with the renewed attack of the Venezuelan rebels on the army of the republic. It confirms the belief that the whole expedition is but a maneuver to upset Senor Cast1o's gov >ernment, and to bring into power one which is pledged to sacrifice the in terests of the country and its people to German and English traders.

With the pro-, test sent to the board of relief was a schedule showing what the largest manufacturers in the state are listed at and the amount of taxes they pay. This schedule shows that the Corbin company pays $28, 8,O37, which is about S7,000 more taxes than any other con cern in the state pays. The Scoviu Go of this city comes next, the amount of its tax being $21, ,252. Here is the list as computed by J. H. Pease of New Britain and published in the Herald:
