Special Correspondence.
Washington. June 17.-The senate
has passed an amendment to the diplo-
matte and consular appropriation bill.
providing for an ambassador to Con-
stantinople. Up to this time We have
had minister at the court OF the sui
tan. and while our government has
been anxious to have its representation
there changed to an embassy, 1t has
never been able to do 70 because We
could not send an ambassador to Tur-
key under our law unless Turkey
would send an ambassador to the
United States. On account OF her
financial condition. Turkey would not
consent to this. The senate amend
ment win overcome this obstacle, and
II 1t IL agreed to by the house. our
representative will soon be accorded
the same standing by the sick man.
AZ the representatives Of Great Britain.
France, Germany and Russia.
The reasons for raising the legation
to an embassy are Of the most con-
trolling character and could be elabor-
ated to considerable length. Every inn
portant government IL represented
there by an embassy. the United states
alone executed. A minister has no
access to the person OF the sultan ex-
cept by his permission. II he desires
an audience with the sultan he must
wait until he IL sent for. and in the
case of our minister to Constantinople.
he has not been sent for very often.
It is the right Of an ambassador to
see the sultan at any time. Az the
Turkish government IL an absolutely
personal government. the foreign rep
resentative who has no right to nee the
sultan when he desires IL at an Inn
mense disadvantage. The government
has many interests In Turkey, and a
great deal Of the bad feeling that has
existed between the United States and
Turkey for several years has to a large
extent been due to the fact that our
representative was forced to deal prin-
cipally with minor officials instead OF
directly with the sultan. It IL be-
lieved at the state department that the
creation OF an embassy at Constantine
pie will be q great step toward finally
our differences with the row
OF Turkey.

they have had a chance to gain strength
and develop their bodies that must be
regulated by law. There must not only be
statutory requirements of high order. but
administrative watchfulness to enforce these
laws. Time and again 1t has been proved
that the enactments of the state iegisla-
ture and of the municipal councils have
been fatty violated and these violations
have not come to light until fire or
pestilence has revealed shameful conditions.
The tenant in the slums will not himself
attend to his health needs. He does not
know how to do so. In many of the most
densely populated quarters Of the large
American cities majority of the residents
are unacquainted with English and know
absolutely nothing about personal clean
illness. The only way to reach them in.
dividua1ly is through the settlement work
and the various charity enterprises that
penetrate into these dark corners.
1t Is well understood by the men and
women who are working seriously in the
campaign against tuberculosis that they
are handicapped by dense ignorance. by
superstition and by prejudice, a formidable
and well nigh invincible combination. But
they have had gratifying success In places
and every gain they score makes the rest
of the way easier. In this city the propa-
ganda Is progressing satisfactorily, and
there Is hope that within a few years the
standard of personal sanitation and of en-
lightenment upon the vital questions Of
sickness and health will have been ma
terially elevated

The Fight for Health.

In nearly every city in the United States
organized efforts are being made to open
the eyes, of the lower classes to the fact
that consumption is a preventable disease
caused by insanitary living and by care
lessness on the part OF sufferers. To for
ward this work lectures are delivered and
stereopticon pictures are displayed. In some
quarters the public evinces an interest in
the enterprise and there are signs that
progress is being made toward better con-
ditions and wider appreciation Of the
dangers and the possibilities of prevention.
But elsewhere appear only callousness and
Indifference and a refusal to take the mat
ter seriously. This was the attitude of a
large and shifting crowd OF people in Bat
terry Park. New York. the other night.
when well prepared stereopticon exhibi-
ton was given out of doors for the benefit
of the public under the auspices of the
health department. The spectators laughed
vociferously at the printed warnings flashed
upon the screen. The pictures of insanitary
tenements provoked only loud-voiced mirth.
while the contrasting pictures of the model
tenements which are designed upon SAM
tary principles evoked scoffing criticisms
and ridicule. The lesson of the exhibition
seemed to have been absolutely wasted
Notwithstanding this ignorant. Indifferent
attitude OF the unthinking crowd the good
work OF education should and doubtless will
proceed, in spirit of determination As
for the sanitary condition OF the tenements.

There Is a lessening dread OF the 'sere
and yellow leaf" in human existence. We
have continual proof that the weight OF
years Is not a burden to him who conserva-
lively expends his physical force. It was
thought that when one was. say, sixty
five. he was fairly well along; but yester-
days news sustains the theoryIOsler to
the contrary. notwithstanding-that sixty
five Is still period OF adolescence. For ex-
ample, we note with pleasure the prepare
lions Of that most upright judge, the Hon.
Craig Biddle, aged eighty three, to open
court. CONFIDENTLY, the Hon. Henry Gas
soway Davis, the Hero Of Piedmont" aged
eighty-three, was in consultation over the
building of the Pan-American railroad. AT
an Identical hour the Hon. Edmund Win
ston Pettus Seer Of Selma" aged eighty
five. addressed an Alabama jury and
swept 1t with his fire of efoquence and for
ensic power" and at that exact point OF
time. also. the Hon. John Tyler Morgan.
the DemOpolis Hotspur. aged eighty-two,
was oiling his bird-gun for William Nelson
Cromwell If further evidence Is wanting
that the eighth decade is the period Of &C
ton. 1t is furnished by an example showing
the ninth to be the Age of High Resolve.
for the intelligence Is flashed from Win
throp, Me-, that Charles NJ. Clark, who has
no stimulus of title, but the simple resources
of the normal man. has at the age of nine
ty-five quit chewing tobacco. after having
"chawed" for eighty-one years. Here is
the testimony of ripened and well-ordered
intellect almost q century old. Who will
say now that we are a weakling race?

breach OF promise because he cannot legal
ly make promise. and the law does not
recognize an illegal act as valid foundation
for such a suit. II he has wronged the girl
he may be proceeded against on another
charge, but few victims will take their trou-
bles thus to court in such circumstances.
It would seem as though a man who is 81
debased as to play this trick has earned a
severe punishment. He has wronged his
wife as well as the woman he has deceived.
1t may be true that there are many such
cases. There are undoubtedly many men in
every community who have no sense of
marital responsibility and no respect for
womanhood and no consideration for others.
These wretches are a menace to public NOR
ais. and means should be devised to visit
them with the punishment they richly de-
serve. Meanwhile 1t Is always wise for
young woman to make quite sure OF the
circumstances Of the man from whom she
receives attentions. at least to disclose his
matrimonial status. 1t is not safe to take
his availability for granted or to accept his
own assurance. Much heartburning Will be
possibly spared by little caution.

Gay Lotharios.

The Star has received the following letter.
which is worthy Of serious consideration:
There seems to be punishment and law
for every crime perpetrated but one and
that is married men palming themselves off
as single and winning the affections of
young girls, only to bring disgrace upon
them. There have been any number of such
cases recently brought to my attention.
where the man has publicly taken the girl
to places Of amusement and visited her
friends and had the day set for the mar
riage. and the girl. though often In humble
circumstances. has bought her wedding out
fl. and has had no intimation Of the mans
situation until the wife has materialized
just In time. Then the poor victim has been
disgraced. If there was a punishment to fit
this crime there would be fewer suicides
and cases of young girls leaving their
homes to hide the disgrace brought upon
them by such wretches.''
The writer is correct In the statement
that there is no law against this scoundrel-
ly form Of deception. II the man actually
marries the woman. having already living
wife. he Is guilty. Of bigamy and can be
prosecuted for that offense. But II the mar
riage does not occur he cannot be sued for
