THE TURKIoH WOMAN.


aer Friday Excursfess o. the sweet
Waters of Asia
Friday il the only day on which
Turkish women enjoy n little liberty
and release from the dreadful seclusion
In which they are always kept. and
they are not slow TO avail themselves
OF the chance. On Fridays every one
goes to the Sweet Waters OF Asia.
which consist Of small river running
about two miles inland. with trees and
meadows ON each side. Hundreds or
boats assemble and glide up and down
the river. Every boat or caiqre has
two or more Turkish ladies on board
The sight is very fne one. as each
private caique is most carefully got
up. and the boatmen wear brilliant iiv-
cries to match the cushions and the
long embroidered cloth which hangs
over the stern and trails In the water.
The khediyah Of Egypt Is one OF the
finest in crimson and gold. embroid-
cred with crowns and fishes. Besides
the liveries the parasols make won
derful show. and here may he seen all
the latest Partisan creations The la
dies must not speak 10 men. but the
careful observer can frequently catch
sight OF wells lowered or other signal
given when a particular boat IL pass
ing. and habitual frequenters can point
out boats which are sometimes close &c
each other. II is a very innocent d.
version and would not satisfy wesse-l
ladies'. An hour before sunset the 20
lice boats appear and force all worner

It is not very probable that the
legislature will take any steps to-
ward requiring the payment Of the
interest collected on public funds in
to the public treasury, for the sim
pie reason that there are too many
ufluential people dividing the in
crest at the present time, and yet
is unquestionable that our sys-
EN- could be much improved by re-
luiring the public funds to be de-
posted ip banking institutions at
.ntei est, and the interest TO be paid
nto the treasury. Of course with
hat system the bonds Of officials
who handle public moneys should
be paid for by the state, doing away
with the system Of bonds by citizens,
and substituting for it bonds by
surety companies.
An example of the advantages OF
. part OF this system is being fur
pished by Treasurer VIM. O'keefe,
Of Marshall county, who has Just
paid into the county treasury
|s415.S1 OF interest for the second
six months OF 1902, which together
With the amounts paid in for the
| first half Of the year makes a total
| Of 81, 97.O7 for the year. OF course
this is entirely voluntary on bis
part, and he urges that if the sys.
tenn was generally introduced and
made compulsory, the advantages
would be much greater. He says;
"If the legislature would pass q
law compelling the treaserer to de-
post the county funds in the bank
in the name OF the county, the mon
lev would bring q much higher rate
LOT interest, as the banks would Their
Ibid for the deposit. In the city o
Henderson, KY, the banks pay ga
per cent. interest on the daily bal
|ances to the city school board. TIT
above law would lessen the liability
and surety companies would maxi
bonds for much less rates than the,
lido at present. They would also
make bonds for treasurers if TIT
money was deposited in the nam
of the county, where they would no
liz the money was deposited IN th'
name OF the individual. I"
It is y matter Of notoriety tina
surety company bonds give create
security to the public than privat
| bondo. There are two reasons 10
this. When a surity company ha
10 pay bond it follows the delin
lquent, and has him punished fpo'
.ible. When an official becomes Dc
llinuuent there is more certainty
hisbond being enforced if compan
lie on it than if it is given by a nun
