TURKISH SPIES.
Their Activity Prevents the Holding
of an Armenian Meeting.

Boston Advertiser.
No mass meeting OF the Armenians to
protest against the recent Armenian shoot
ing in this city, against the Kishineff
atrocity and other similar wanton sacrifices
of human life was held in this city Sunday.
Most of the newspapers regarded the affair
as merely postponed to an indefinite date.
but there is an explanation of the whole
matter which has not been published. The
meeting was indefinitely postponed-be-
cause Turkish spies had been tracking the
footsteps of the promoters of the meeting
and were prepared not only to report the
proceedings in full. but to get the names
who participated.
1t was the expectation of the spies that
some violent denunciation of the Sultan
would take place and that these denuncia-
tory remarks could be laid before the Sui
tan to influence him still further against
Professor Tenekijian who has recently
the charge of conspiring against the Sui
tan. In other words, evidence against the
learned professor (Which was lacking in
Turkey the Sultan hoped to get from Ar
menians in this country. To defeat this
purpose and prevent the Sultan's spies from
cabling any reports of an Armenian mass
meeting TO the Sultan. the Armenian mass
meeting in this city was indefinitely post
poned.
A preliminary conference of the promoters
was held in a downtown hall Saturday
And IL was noted then that an individual.
appai entity an Armenian, who was not
known TO the Armenian people of the city,
tried to get admission 10 the conference.
There was no question in their minds but
he was spy. In an unguarded moment
he said he was member, of the Armenian
Revolutionary Society and this disclosed
the fact that he was spy. The leading
reputable Armenians Will have nothing to
do with the society. They will not indorse

Copenhagen.
A syndicate of business men and
farmers in Raskov and vicinity, at a
recent meeting, decided to invest 10
600 crowns in building where eggs
are to be preserved according to the
latest modern methods. Denmark is
a great egg exporting country and
such an institution will be of great
benefit to the egg industry.
A young man who has been en-
ployed as a bookkeeper in the cycle
factory "Citus," Copenhagen, has been
placed under arrest. 1t is alleged that
he has embezzled about 1900 crowns.
He is the son of prominent family
and his name has so far been withheld
from publication.
Countess Adelina Schimmel, who
some time ago was supposed to have
become a Mormon, vigorously stamps
this as a malicious rumor and in the
"Helsingor Avis she offers 500 crowns
to any one who can find the party who
started the rumor in question.

Fifteenth Amendment a Curse.

The fifteenth amendment has proven
to be a veritable curse to the negro
race and was responsible primarily and
in a great degree for most of the
clashes that have occurred between the
races. The negro was thus forced
into the rough and tumble of politics.
he permitted himself to be led by de-
signing men, and nothing but trouble
has come to him from this source.
few pitiful offices have been doled out
to him from time to time by the Re
publican party, but even these have
been a curse rather than a blessing.
We have given much study to this
question and the most thoughtful and
patriotic men of the South have studied
it and by almost unanimous consent
have come to the conclusion that the
suffrage clause of the Virginia con-
stitution Is wise and expedient, and
the only practicable solution; and II
the constitution stands there will be
less friction than ever. But II the CON
stitution fall we shall have to go over
the whole programme again, for az
sure as fate some sort of device Will
be found to prevent political condi-
tons that existed in this state for near
ly forty years. If the negroes think
that they know better than the wisest
and best OF the whites, let them pro-
coed. but 1t Is a presumption and
sooner or later they will discover their
mistake.-Richmond Dispatch.

In New York the authorities have
ordered that the vital statistics of the
various boroughs should be rearrang

them for future generations. In go

bits of history were unearthed, and
none more interesting than the follow

clerk who held his position for nearly
forty years, and thus recorded his mar
riage:

strength and of indomitable temper;

her aspect, which did not by any means
detract from her personal attractions.

was born. Our marriage was in Cath

others houses. The evening finds
them together with their husbands for
a friendly game of poker or good
gossip. Such intimacy as this is
neither refining nor elevating, and
shows a small mind on the part Of
the woman engaging in it.
THE tactful woman who desires to
keep all her friends and who wants
to be popular will never do this. She
may have friends more intimate than
others, but she does not devote all her
