With the wind continuing in the

The wind was then fluttering the har-

down the harbor to the mouth of the

of the coast. north and south.
The ice was drifting toward the
Break-heart Point. 1t would destroy
the salmon net within the hour, he

his duty was to put out from the shell

threatened destruction to the little

signs. the fish lore of the coast. the
marks for the fishing grounds, the
whereabouts OF shadows and reefs and
currents; he took him to church and
sent him to Sunday School. And he
taught him to swim.
On the fine days of that summer,
when there were no fish to be caught,
the man and the lad went together
to the Wash-tub--a deep, little cove
of the sea- clear, quiet, bottomed with
smooth rock and sheltered from the
wind by high cliffs; but cold-aImost
as cold as ice-water. Here Jacky de-
lighted to watch Eli dive, leap from
the cliff, float on his back, swim far
out to sea; here he gazed with TAD
miration not unmixed with awe" on
the mans rugged body-broad shoul-
ders, bulging muscles, great arms and
legs. And here, too, he learned to
swim.
When the warmest summer days
were gone, Jack could paddle about
the Wash-tub in promising fashion.
He was confident when Ell was at
hand-sure, then, that he could keep
ahoat. But he was not yet sure enough
Of his power when Ell had gone on
the long swim to sea. Eli said that he
had done well: and Jacky, himself,
often said that he could swim GeaI
better than a stone. In an emergency,
both agreed, Jacky's new accomplish
ment would be sure to serve him well.
"Sure, IL the punt turned over"
Jacky innocently boasted, I'D be able

That was to be proved.

SULTAN PALS TO REPLY.
NO SATISFACTORY ANSWER TO
AMERICAN DEMANDS.

Minister Leishman Notifies State De-
partment-situation Regarded as
sunicientIy Grave to Have the Euro-
pean Squadron Remain at vilIe-
franche While Negotiations Are
Pending.
washington, Aug. 5.-Minister Leish-
man has notified the state department
from constantinople that he has failed
to receive the expected satisfactory re-
ply from the sultan touching the rights
|of American citizens in Turkey
The situation was regarded as suffi-
ciently grave to warrant some change
in the programme that had been forrn-
led for the movement of the United
|States naval vessels in the Mediterra-
mean. While it was not decided to stop
the homes coming OF the fleet Of the big
battleships due at Gibraltar in a day or
1.-TWO, the determination was reached to
Ihaye Admiral Jewell, commanding the
European squadron, which has separat-
/ ed from the battleship squadron and is
now at VilIefranche, remain IN that vi
cinity until further orders or at least
not to come further westward while the
negotiations are pending.
This government has been pressing
the porte for an answer to our repre-
lsentations. The sultan promised an an
lswer last Friday, but Minister Leish-
man was put off until yesterday. He
was promised then an answer from the
Isultan himself as to the rights of
Americans to establish schools and 9TH
Ter educational institutions in the Tur-
kish empire. Such rights have been ac-s
corded other nations, but have been
withheld from America.
Secretary Hay laid before the presi-
dent and the cabinet a cablegram he
ljust had received from Minister Leish-
man to the effect that he had not been
able to obtain satisfactory answer to
Ibis representations. That this govern
ment is annoyed at the representation
of the porte and at what seems to be a
studied effort on the part of the sultan
to dilly daily with the American repre-
sentations there is no attempt to con-
ceal. Secretary Hay declined, however.
after he left the cabinet meeting, to say
what, if any, decision had been reached.
Secretary Morton's replies to similar.
inquiries indicated the probability Of
important action by his department
bearing upon the Turkish question.

Justice 70 Russian Jews.

St Petersburg, Aug. 5.--As evidence
of the increasing leniency for the Jews,
the exclusion of Jews from the ranks
of barristers, followed since 1889, is be-
coming less rigorous, and it is consid-
erred probable that complete removal
|of the disabilities will result. The pres
Ient restrictions have many drawbacks.
The Jews, unable to become barristers,
monopolize the posts Of lawyers office
assistants, and are gradually attracting
most of the business to themselves, en-
ploying barristers to represent them in
court. The bar associations and courts
have repeatedly asked return to the
old order of things. @

NO MORE SUCH INCIDENTS.
Russia WIN Not Repeat knight Cons
mander Performance,

|
st. Petersburg, Aug. 6-1:57 a. M
The Associated Press is able to an
|nounce that there will be no repetition
|of the Knight Commander and Thea
incidents. Russia has issued in strue-
Itions to naval commanders not to sink
neutral merchantmen with contrabrand
on board III thefuture, except in cases
of direct necessity, but in cases of em-
|ergency to send prizes into neutral
ports. Direct necessity" may be re-
garded as reservation of a right
which Russia does not formally relin-
quish, but which, 1t Is safe to say, will
not again be exercised during the pres.
ent war.
Russia's concessions in this matter
may be looked upon as proof of her
sincere desire to avoid International
complications, or the unnecessary irri-
tation OF neutrals. The authorities here
feel that this course will be satisfac-
| tory to Great Britain and the other
powers. With such assurances 1t will
make the Knight Commander and
Thea cases much easier of adjustment.
Much interest is manifested In gov
ernnent circles here regarding the dis
patches from the United States which
report that the Washington govern.
inerlt is sounding the powers as to their.
position concerning neutral commerce.
This action Of the United States gov,
Iernment is interpreted as an indisposi-
| tion to act hastily and as indicating no
desire to precipitate an unnecessary is
sue with Russia, The attitude of the
United States government is very graf
flying to the Russian authorities.
