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 condi-
ton of things came to his mind his
royal highness decided that it looked
darker for Abdul Hudas head and also
rather dark for Abdul Seconds safety,
the latter being the sultan himself.
There was no one else to blame it
on except the astrologer. Had not his
plea of sickness when other nations
pressed him for the return of their
loans, always been sufficient to quell
them? 1t had and he could see no
other reason for the status than by re-

And the cause of all this trouble, &C.
