NOT AGAINST RUSSIA
Turkey Explains Military Opera.
lions on the Frontier.
SULTAN NOT SEEKING WAR

Present Movement of Troops Made
Necessary by the Threatening In.
ternaI Situation in Armenia and
kurdestan.
St. Petersburg, Feb. 21.-A repre-
sentative of the foreign office declares
that Russia has received definite as.
surances that the Turkish military
preparations in Northwestern Turkey
in the Vicinity of the Russian border
were not directed against Russia, but
were made necessary by the threat
ening internal situation in this region,
which includes Armenia and Kur-
destan. The assurance has been con-
veyed also that the sultan has no wish
to quarrel with Russia
The foreign Office looks with disfa-
vor upon the bellicose attitude as
sumed by portion of the Russian
press, as this tends to complicate an
international situation already in a
sufficiently delicate stage. Whether
the Turks believe themselves to be
confronted with revival of the Ar
menian revolutionary movement is not
stated, but the recent discovery of a
large quantity of arms in the prov
lnce of Van may be recalled in this
connection. ...-
The above assurances have received
due consideration here and it was
further explained that the steps
which the general staff is taking in
the Caucasus should in no sense be
regarded as a menace to Turkey, but
Simply as precautionary measures
which the military authorities nat
urally must adopt in view of this con-
siderable concentration of Turkish
troops, regardless of the pacific object
OF the movement. The hope is en-
tertained here that these assurances
will put an end to the alarming ru-
mors regarding the situation on the
Turko-Russian frontier that have been
circulated abroad.

disturbed from the time the fatal
shot was fired until the time he
arrived and, together with the cor
oner, examined same. "A few days
later" said Sheriff Walsh, Il went
to the premises and had some photos
taken. These photos were taken
before the body was disturbed or
moved" Sheriff Walsh produced
the pictures in court.
Mr.. Walsh further testified that
the grass about the body of
Williams and near the shot gun
beside the body was not disturbed;
laying the foundation for the belief
that the gnn had been laid there
after the shooting.
John Samuelson was the next wit
ness called. He testified to the TAX
ing of the revolver from Big Falls
police. He also said the revolver
was loaded. He later identified the
revolver and cartridges exhibited.
Ed. Bennett and George Garaneboe
each testified to visiting Williams
home and corroborated Sheriff
Walsh's testimony as to condition
of premises, the grass undisturbed
and the position of the body and
gun.
1t looks as though the state will
be successful in the introduction of
all photographs, which they have
of the scene of the tragedy, and
which are very damaging. -
At 4 o'clock this afternoon but
three witnesses had been examined.
Two photographs were admitted to
evidence, which showed the dead
body of Williams lying face down
ward; the other reproduction of
the premises around the Williams
home.
Mr.. Scrutchin, the defendants
attorney, objected to the introduce
ton of testimony indicatory of the
alleged self-confession of Godatte,
claiming that it was improper for
the court to admit any of these
confessions made while the prisoner
| was handcuffed and in the custo dy
of the sheriff.
Judge Spooner reserved the ruling
and permitted the further evidence
to be introduced by witnesses giving
testimony regarding said self con-
fession.
Another witness was placed upon
! the stand who gave distances and
position in and around the Williams
home and the place where Williams
! was killed.
At present, aind1cations point that
| the state will be allowed to intro
duce most of the damaging photo
graphs where Godatte illustrates
how he killed Williams.

MEXICAN CARRIERS.
The cargadors Can Carry Enormous
Loads on Their Shoulders.

The carsadors Can Carry Enormous
Loads on Their Shoulders.
Just as one finds the rickshaw every
where in India, so one finds the carga-
dor in Mexico. He Is a beast of bur-
den. In general he is a comparatively
small man, with broad shoulders and
stout arms and legs. To look at him
one would not think he would be able
to carry heavy burdens. But the
weight he can carry is surprising. You
have trunk you can scarcely move,
for instance. You send for cargador.
He gets it upon his back, high up on
the shoulders, and he marches off with
it as easily as though it were play
thing. A life dedicated to carrying
heavy burdens has made this work
easy for him. A slightly built Mexican
will carry over 500 pounds on his
shoulders for short distances.
Until recent years almost everything
in the City of Mexico and everywhere
else throughout the republic was car
ried upon the backs of cargadors. If
you wanted to move your household
furniture you hired certain number
Of cargadors. For house moving they
generally work in pairs, each pair hav-
Ing hand truck, which they pick up
and carry when it is loaded, for it has
no wheels. In the City of Mexico there
are still hundreds Of these hand trucks,
though one may now find plenty of
carts, wagons and heavy moving
trucks.-Mexican Herald.

The Thief Traekers.

A curious profession among the BE!
douin is that Of the ''thief crackers"
Being without paddccks or stables and
their animals always more or less at
liberty, theft of stock would appear to
be an easy and frequent matter. Each
tribe, however, has Its little company
Of "trackers," and it would be either
a bold or an ignorant man indeed who
ventured to interfere with an Arabs
live stock. There was one instance in
which a camel stolen from a camp
near Ismailia was, after weeks of la
Dor, successfully tracked to the Sudan
where the beast was recaptured and
summary vengeance wreaked upon the
robbers. Selected for natural ability
and trained from boyhood to discrimi-
nate between each animals footprint,
this faculty becomes so highly devel-
oped that particular horses or cam
els trail is unerringly picked up from
among the thousands of impressions
on the dusty highway.

JUGGLED HIS EYE.
The Trick by Which Lord Wolse!ey
Conquered an Arab.


Conquered an Arab.
The loss of an eye years ago once
stood Lord Wolseley in good stead. 1t
seemed impossible to get any informa-
ton Of the enemy's strength and the
forces under the command of Arab
Pasha. At length an Arab was caught
near one of the outposts. Naturally ex-
pecting that he would be able to give
a good deal of information, he was
taken before Lord Wolseley, who ques-
toned him. The man, however, re-
fused to speak.
Seeing that it was useless to con-
tinue to ply him with questions, the
commander in chief resolved to use
strategy. ut is no use your refusing
to answer me-" he said to the man. 81
am wizard, and at single word l
can destroy you and your masters. To
prove this to you will take out my
eye, throw it up into the air, catch it
and put it back into my head"
Suiting the action to the word, Lord
Wolseley removed his glass eve, threw
it into the air, caught it and put il
back into the empty socket. That dem
onstration was sufficient to convert the
Arab. A man who could do such q
miracle was wizard indeed and was
to be propitiated, not angered. He ca
pitulated without further demur, and
the information he gave is said t.
have led to Arabi's defeat. rs!
