as consequence 1t was expected
that the pair would conniye together
as to the best mode OF procedure In
the present case, for both might be

corpses which the sultan had billed
for the morgue on New Years day.
Thus by the foregoing will be seer
that things are in a bad way in Turkey
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1908-09-11

Previously everything had looked
splendid to the monarch. The Young
Turks had not objected to his harem
until Huda got in bad with the planets
and many of that party had promised
to leave the country rather than be
called to purgatory by decapitatiOn.
As each step in this fearful condl
ton of things came TO his mind his
royal highness decided that 1t looked
darker for Abdul Huda's head and also
rather dark for Abdul Seconds safety,
the latter being the sultan himself
There was no one else to blame 1t

them? 1t had, and he could see no
other reason for the status than by re-
turning to his original reason.

The days routine over, the sultan
re.seated himself upon the divan and
thought OF what had best be done.
Finally he decided that there could
be no place just like jail as a punish
ment and 30 Huda remained there.
However, the story goes, the former
student Of the stars will offer up his
head on New Years day as his sacri'
flee for getting into the evil graces

and despite the fact that they cheer
the sultan outside of the palace until
he has to empty the court water pitch
er upon them 20 that he may sleep In
peace. many OF the tall Turkish minds
have announced that they are going
away from here, never again to re-
turn"
And the cause of all this trouble. &C.
cording to those who sympathize with
his majesty, Is none other than Huda
himself.
Therefore he Is pinlng away the
idle hours In the jail's solitary con.
flnement pen, playing solitaire with
the covers from Turkish cigarette
boxes. which the guard shoyes to-
ward him with his mamma and water
twice a day. The only solace which
he had on first entering the jail was
that within two months he would have
a full pack of cards for they furnished
him box Of cigarettes With each
meal. That is, his friends did. For
they provide his Injuries, while the
actual bodily necessities are given by
the ruler himself.
However, let 1t be said that the as
trologer does not know of his fate, and
he probably will not until the time
comes for him to be led out to sac
rifice his STARTLED Uranium TO the
art which he has studied throughout
his 40 years.
As Turks go he is young man still
and being unmarried there probably
will be few who mourn him. His only
acquaintance were court officials. and
they had little love for him for the
reason that he would at every oppor
