London, Nov. 24.-The Persistent re-
fusal Of the Turkish government to &C.
cept European control of the revenues
Of the vilayets of Macedonia, notwitn-
standing the ultimatum presented by
the allied powers, is about to lead to
the putting into operation of the threat
of a naval demonstration with the
view Of compelling the acquiescence of
Turkey in the European control of the
administration of and the proposed re-
forms In Macedonia. The obduracy of
the sultan apparently is based on the
belief that he had the passive support
Of the emperor Of Germany, and upon
the jealousies supposed to exist among
the powers interested. In diplomatic
quarters it had been supposed to the
very last the sultan would yield, and
even now it is expected that he will do
so before the International fleet takes
active measures.

A remarkable letter from q Russian
soldier in the Seventy-first (Bielavsky)
regiment, stationed at Novo Alexan-
dria, province Of Lublin, is reported to
have been received at Odessa, says a
correspondent from that place, relating
how the commander Of the brigade,
Major General Remis, was literally
torn to pieces by the regiment after he
had brutally murdered corporal. :
The general appeared before the regi-
ment and acknowledged that the Four
teenth army corps, Of which the regi-
meDt is part, had been ordered to the
front. He added, however, that he
could not accompany the corps to the
front
Then there were cries Of "Scoun-
drel!' and "Cowardv' from the ranks.
Approaching our company" contin-
ues the writer, where on the right
flank stood the company commander
and corporal, he pointed his revolver
at the latter and demanded, Tell me
Immediately, you reptile, who shouted
among your men,

our company had shouted.

after a fierce struggle he was finally
overpowered and handcuf,ed. After
Cockerton had effected the capture he
looked over the premises and turned
the youth over to two citizens, instruct
ing them to guard the prisoner. No
sooner had Cockerton left the scene
than Fromme showed fight and again
made threats Of murder. Cockerton
came back, and Fromme, seeing that
all was up with him, calmly consented
to being taken to the city prison.
Mrs. Sieg said regarding the fracas:
II was Of course very much frighten-
ed, but could not let Gussie escape,
as he had threatened to kill me. He
has been an unruly boy from baby
hood. When he was thirteen we had
him committed to the Whittier Reform
school, He escaped from there twice.
The last time got him out on parole
He had hardly been out a month be-
fore he robbed my father, August
Fromme, Of money and a suit of
clothes. We were living in San Fran
cisco at this time, and when Gussie
was caught he had the clothes on him.
He was sent back to Whittier and has
been out only short time. l made
home for him here and gave him 80
cents every day and 81 on Sunday, for
his living expenses. Nine days ago he
disappeared, saying that he would be
back as soon as he got paid for his
work. He is a tailor. He never came
back again until I found him in the
cellar Of my house."
Fromme, says Mrs. Sieg, has several
times threatened the life Of her IA
Their and other members Of the family,
and they are in constant dread Of him.
The boy is remarkably good looking
and has a very gentlemanly carriage.
He is nineteen years of age. On his
person were found $14.85, property Of
Mrs. Sieg, watch and chain belong
ing to his stepfather and a purse con-
tanning small change. Even when he
was placed in his cell he showed a
sullen temper and reiterated his
threats to kill as soon as he was free.

They Insist on Demands That De
White Will Not Concede.
Moscow, Nov. 24.-By a scanty ma
Jority Of twenty the zemstvo congress
accepted the first sections Of the reso-
luton drafted by the executive COM
mittee declaring the solidarity Of tho
congress with the principles of the i'm
per'ial manifesto of Oct. 80, and assur-
ing the government of the support Of
the great majority of zemstvos and
municipalities in carrying into effect
the liberties promised by the mani
festo, but laying down as the sole
means Of guaranteeing the authority
of the douma and restoring order in
the country the election of represent
atives by general, direct, equal and
secret ballot, and the formal grant to
the first dOuma of the power to elabor-
ate a constitution for the empire.
The friends of Count de White on
the floor made stout fight against the
provision for a direct ballot. the one
concession which the premier consid-
ers it impossible to grant, but this pro-
vision was carried over their heads by
a two-thirds majority. The committee
to which the resolution was referred
Wednesday for further consideration
made numerous alterations in the
phraseology, but little change in the
substance, except the insertion of a
demand for the immediate abolition of
martial law in Poland as among the
measures deemed to be imperative be-
fore the cOnvOcation of the dOulna.
The congress also inserted at the
suggestion of the committee a provision
Subjecting all ministers except the
court ministers to the responsibility of
the cabinet, M. Mulikoff explaining
that with the ministers Of war, navy
and foreign affairs excepted from such
responsibility not only could war or
peace be decided without consulting
the premier, but the minister of war
could declare martial law in any Sec
ton of the country without consulting
his colleagues.

August Fromme, nineteen years Of
age, held the police at bay for over an
hour In the basement of a house at
Oakland, CAL, says a correspondent
writing from that place. The bravery
and woman's strategy shown by Mrs.
Lizzie Sieg, his stepsister, was mainly
responsible for the capture of the des-
perate youth. After parley Police
man Cockerton, with drawn revolver,
approached the man at bay and, rush.

sent his knife changing to the floor and
effected one Of the boldest captures
recorded in police circles this year.
Fromme was booked at the police sta
ton and charged with burglary on a
warrant sworn to by the woman he
had attacked.

"Gussie," has bad record, but Mrs.
Sieg, with whom he had been staying,

to the garden. She locked the door
after her. A neighbor called to her
after she had been in the garden at
work ten minutes that man had just
jumped out the window, dashed
through an alleyway and hidden in the
basement Of the house. Mrs. Sieg
went to investigate, and in the base
ment, concealed beneath a wheelbar-
row which had been turned upside
down, she saw her stepbrother, August
Fromme. AS soon as the boy saw
that he had been discovered he drew
a most murderous looking knife and
cried:
eff you take one step nearer I will
kill you'll Don't you dare to move to-
ward mew And he made a step in
advance, brandishing the knife to fright
en- her.
Mrs. Sieg tried to reason with her
stepbrother, but he would not listen.
In the meantime she had given the
alarm, and bravely standing her
ground when any minute might mean
a horrible death she kept guard over
the man covering in the corner like q
Welt at bay. Finally she quietly told
a neighbor to run for policeman.
She said loud enough for Fromme to
hear: "Oh, never mind! If you cannot

then we will have a talk. l do not

STRONGER THAN MEAT. A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts.

A gentleman who has acquired a iu- dicial turn of mind from experience on the bench out in the Sunf1ower State, writes a carefully considered opinion as to the value of Grape Nuts as food. He says,
 For the past years Grape Nuts has been prominent feature in our bill of fare.
 "The crisp food with the delicious, nutty flavor has become an indispens- able necessity in my family's everyday life. ...
 Tt has proved to be most healthful and beneficial, and has enabled us to practically abolish pastry and pies from our table, for the children prefer Grape Nuts and do not crave rich and unwholesome food.
 Grape Nuts keeps us all in perfect physical condition-as a preventive of disease it is beyond value. have been particularly impressed by the beneficial effects of Grape Nuts when used by la- dies who are troubled with face blem- ishes, skin eruptions, etc. It clears ur the complexion wonderfully.

DRINKS OF ALL LANDS.
America Has a Great Number But Its People Temperate Compared to

America Has a Great Number But Its People Temperate Compared to
 Some Bejagged Races. IT. :*
 Emil Necaire, ''InixoIogist," for S2 years the most famous bartender in New Orleans, has complied book in which he sets forth the drinks of the world.
 The American who has run the garnut from sloe gin high balls to poets dreams, imbibed everything from a Tom Collins to Bourbon with dash of bitters, is merely an anna teur drunkard compared with the ar ray of drinks that are served to the nations of the world.
 | Necaire has listed S43 American drinks-or naturalized drinks-that are worth place in his book, | whereas he has an array of 11,754 mixed and straight drinks that, So far as he can find out have never been served in the United States.
 To add to the value of the cornpila- tion-;which has taken 26 years of work and research, of correspondence with Governments, with travellers with bartenders in other countries I Necaire adds a note in which he says that every one of the drinks he des- cribes is injurious to a greater or lesser degree and each one aids in the degeneration of the people who use thenl-except, possibly a fermenta- tion of goats milk found in Northern Siberia and a wild honey fermentation discovered in Central Australia. The others he declares are positively harmful to the drinker, and, to SUD- port his argument, he records IT races of men among whom alcoholic beverages are unknown and proves, to his own satisfaction at least, that these people are the happiest and healthiest on earth.
 The compilation of drinks is a re- markalble one. Necaire awards to the Russians the doubtful honor of being the greatest drunkards, and to the Swedes the distinction of having in- vented the most and the best tasting drinks. He leclares the drinks of the Germans, that is the native drinks are the most healthful and he declares brandy the worst drink, outclassing whiskey, beer or wine in extent of evil and in results.
 Russia" says Necaire, is the greatest drinking country in the world. The Russians drink more violent spirits than any other nation, and they have a greater assortment of drinks despite the fact that vodka supplies the place of wine, beer whiskey and brandy with the great mass of the population.
 But the Russians must yield to the Georgians - their dependents - in amount drunk per capita, The Geor- gian is never sober from birth to | death, and manages to keep in this condition on wines. Men and women are already befuddled, caused mainly by 8 mixture of ether with light Wines.'
