For some time past the sultan of the sublime
porte has been occupying the worlds stage Tragedy
is his forte. The civilized world constitutes his
audience. The sultan is an actor of world wide re-
pute AS villain he stands without peer. Long
years of experience in the role of assassin and
butcher has made him postmaster of the art in
which Mohammed shone brilliantly At times
his tragedy is vulgar inartstic and agonizing. To-
day the Macedonans protesting loudly against
further exhibitions. The powers recommend that
he be dipped in the Bosphorus. On the other hand
the rest of the barbarian contingent showerng
comiums at him and shouting gleefuly at his CHASTITY
performances
The situation is anomalous to say the least Not
since the halcyon days of the terrible Genghs Khan
has the world beheld such an unbushing tyrant who
places such little value on human lives. No doubt
Turkey has her ideals, ambitions and dreams of be-
coming great world power but the means adopted
to accomplish her conquests are not in conformity
with modern ideas. Turkey is making haste slowly
in crushing the Macedonian insurgents. At present
it only requires small match to set ablaze Europe
and cause transformation of existing maps If
this it will surprise if Turkey fails
to emerge from the confagration.
Meanwhile the Macedonians are being stripped
of their possessions like trees of their leaves before
the chilly bass OF autumn va1nly hoping ana pray
ing for Alexander to arise, phoenix-ke from the
ashes of their burnt cities and smite the cruel in
vader.
Sultan Mohammed's rule furnishes object
lesson to the world of the danger of vestng single
individual with unlimited power. He can order the
destruction of an Armenian city without causing any
further comment than protest from few mission
aries. But if President Roosevelt limited at the
massacre of negro colony, the next election would
install democratic president. Turkey needs shak-
ing up badly. Reforms absolutely necessary.
But whatever nation undertakes the task Of making
that empire respectable will find tia difficult job.
Indeed if the fire departments of the world were to
play on Constantinope for year and day it would
still smell to high heaven.

In ORDER to "dispel apprehension Of loss,' the
United States Steel Corporation has guaranteed to
purchase at $825O per share the preferred stock it's
employees graciously permitted to subscribe
for last winter, provided they will wait until January
1908, to sell it. At the time the announcement was
made that the employees of the steel trust would be
permitted to get in the ground floor in preferred
stock, the country fairly rang with praise of the
magnanimity of the kind and thoughtful corporation
which, contrary to the rule, was all soul. Some
papers went far to speak of it cooperative
concern. It was not long, however, before those
ground floor fortunates felt themselves gently slip
ping into the cellar. For the time being at least
the bottom seems to have dropped out of United
States Steel and the workngmen who invested their
savings in preferred stock certainly justified in
apprehending loss. And the chances are that when
the opportunity arises to get out even the employees
holding preferred stock will take advantage of it

SECRETARY WILSON says he regards the stamping
out of the foot and mouth disease in New England
of the most valuable and important pieces of
plished. Indeed it will be so regarded by most per-
sons who have followed the efforts of the Depart
ment in it's work Of extermination Less than year
ago the foot and mouth disease was epidemic among
the live stock of New England and threatened to
proportions unless it could be checked
at In December, after Great Britain had
placed an embargo on cattle shipped from New Eng
land ports the Department of Agriculture started its
crusade against the disease, and Notwithstanding
the nclemency Of the weather, had it under control
before spring. Before the work completed $500
cattle and $50 sheep and hogs killed and paid
for at cost to the government of less than 100000.
Secretary Wilson says that heretofore country
has succeeded in stamping out such a serious and
extensive outbreak of this disease and gives great
credit to Dr. Salmon, chief of the Bureau of Animal
Industry and his assistants for the in which
they accomplished their arduous task. Speaking Of
the hardshps they forced to undergo, he said:
'"The inspectors and their assistants obliged to
work in the open country with the thermometer far
below zero. Some of the men had their extremties
frozen and disabled It is difficult at this
time, to understand how the pits were dug in the
frozen ground for buryng the and how the

of liquid nature became frozen in a short time
after it was exposed to the atmosphere. But the

The recrudescence of the great and only Sher-
lock Holmes is a distinct disappointment. He has
grown rusty during his long absence from public
life; he has almost become commonplace and as for
the originality of thought and method that once
made him such distinguished fgure-well, it is no
great exaggeraton to say that he might be the late
detective turned grocer, of whom it is reported
but not generally credited, that he once caught a
cold When it was announced that Sir A. Conan
Doyle was about to revive Sherlock Holmes many
sincere admirers thought he was making mistake.
Not that there was anything human about the char
acter; not that it would seem homogeneous to make
him rise from the dead but because he disappeared
in such blaze of glory that it seemed poor policy
to bring him to life again. And if he doesn't work
himself into something his old form than he
displays in "The Adventure of the Empty House, !"
which appeared in recent number of Golfers
Weekly, these persons will be confirmed in their be-
lief
In this story crime is committed which, Of
course, completely battles the Scotland Yard men.
Holmes, through fault of his own, is in posses
sion of inside information that makes him absolutely
certain who the criminal u.s. and by very theatrical
trick he lands him. The story is impossible from
all points of view It is not in the same class with
those of the first series. The old methods employed
by Sherlock Holmes quite lacking and giving the
most commonplace man the information possessed
by Holiness he could have made the capture readily
as the greatest detective of fiction In short, the
tale is commonplace and if the new series may be
judged by it. it is pity Sherlock Holmes ever
brought to life again.
