MASSACRES SPREAD NORTH.
New Regions Affected by Fanatical
Wave of Shaving.

Constantinople, April 23. = The
spread of the wave of massacre and
death to Erzerum, the principal. town
of Turkish Armenia, in district far
removed to the north from that hither-
to affected by the wave of fanaticism,
is leading to the conclusion here that
the outrages are being inspired by the
sultan, more or less directly, as coun-
ter move in politics to the constitu-
tional movement of the Young Turks.
Weight is given this conclusion by
the change in feeling on the part of
the Armenians, who are now ceasing
their enthusiastic hailing of the con-
stitutional government, and appealing
again for the laws of the Sheri and the
sultan. That the Young Turks have
been very friendly with the Christians
is a matter of record; and the fact
that the fanatical Moslems have been
reused to attack Christians is regarded
as an indirect way of bringing pressure
upon the Young Turks by many in
well-informed political circles. Horri-
BILE as this idea is, it is fast gaining
ground, and the behavior of the Ar
menians themselves in abandoning
their appeals to the Young Turks and
placing reliance on the sultan is fur
ther proof of it.

SULTAN GIVES IN.
Surrenders All Power to Parliament
and Awaits Decision.

SuTTcHucTS M ToWcT u TdTIidIneHt
and Awaits Decision.
Constantinople, April 2S. = The
Young Turks have won another vic
tory over Sultan Abdul Hamid, but
whether the sultan will remain as SOW
ereign is yet to be decided, although
he has offered to place the affairs of
government entirely in the hands of
ministers responsible to parliament.
The sultan also agrees to replace the
Constantinople GARRISON with troops
that have been investing the city for
four days.
The chamber of deputies and some of
the senators met today at San Stefano
and are now discussing the question of
deposing the sultan.
The concentration of the investing
army is complete and doubtless the
next "a hours will decide the fate of
the sultan, who remains passively at
his palace, awaiting the issue.
For the present there need be little
fear of bloodshed within the city, but
there is much to be feared from the
riots and massacres that now are
sweeping over the districts under Turk
ish domination.

Critics Are Welcome.

Los Angeles, April 23.-A unique
innovation in municipal affairs is a
clearing house for all city business
which Mayor Alexander established to-
day. 1t is expected to effectually end
the insistent complaint heretofore pre-
vailing that private individuals could
not get access to or action from public
officials. Under the new system the
mayor will not only receive, but actu-
ally invites complaints, criticisms, new
ideas and suggestions of all kinds
which may result in the betterment of
conditions in any direction.

As there is only one genuine Syrup OF

ICE JAM YIELDS.
Small Opening Made in Niagara With
Dynamite.

Youngstown, N. Y, April ga
breach was made today in the great
ice jam which for ten days has held
the lower Niagara in its grip and
caused damage estimated at 81, 000,-
900.
Engineer Kunz and his men ham
mered away and at o'clock the blast
from $50 pounds of dynamite sent a
tiny rivulet trickling through the east
side of the jam. At dusk further ex-
plosions and the ceaseless grinding of
the floating ice had broadened the
trickle to bold young stream.
Engineer Kunz expects that the
channel will be widened during the
night, and that by morning there will
be broad avenue.
The dynamiting attracted less than
500 spectators. Some chunks of ice
buried themselves foot in the earth.
One crashed through the roof of the
pumping station.
The main mass of the ice from the
mouth of the river, 10 miles north, is
apparently as solid as masonry. About
100 feet from the shore narrow chan
mel is swiftly running. About 80 feet
north of the head of this channel is a
good acre of green water streaked with
chunks of ice.
The jam is of appalling proportions.
1t is IL miles in length and in many
places 60 feet in depth, and represents
millions of tons and a strength power
enough to annihilate the four villages
along its border. if it should start to
go out all at once. Another element
of horror is its pestilential nature.
Mingled with the slushy ice cast high
on the banks is weeks sewage from
the cities along the Niagara frontier.

SUNDAY OPENING FOR FAIR.
Directors of A.-Y.-P. Plan to Keep
Open Seven Days a Week.

Seattle, April 24.-The Alaska Yu-
kon-Pacific directors today voted upani-
mously to open the fair gates on Sun
day. On week days the fair will be
open from 8 a. m. until midnight; on
Sundays from p. m. until midnight.
The same agitation against Sunday
opening that every fair in the United
States has encountered was met by
this exposition, but as the Federal gov
ernment made no loan to the Seattle
fair, settlement of the question was
left not to congress, but to the direct
ors.
Today's decision permits Sunday
opening of the "Pay Streak" which
was the chief point of attack by the
United Clergymen. Under the state
law the amusement enterprises must
be conducted quietly on Sunday, with
out "ballyhoo. The government
building will not be open, and such of
the exhibitors as desire to close will be
permitted to do so, but it is believed
all the state buildings will be open.

VALUE OF SEPTIC TANKS.
Many Odors and Germs May Be Dis
pensed With by Their Use.

pensed With by Their Use.
Ex-President Roosevelt's farmers
commission, appointed for the purpose
of investigating and reporting upon the
conditions of the great farming indus
try of our country, found that one Of
the greatest disadvantages the farming
community has to contend with, owing
to the absence of proper sewerage, was
the unsanitary conditions surrounding
the homes.
Now this same condition prevails not
only upon the farm but also in small
towns and suburbs of cities where there
are no sewers or water works, and
where the people have to depend upon
wells for their water supply.
Usually these homes have a we'll at
the rear of the house, near the kitchen
door. A few feet further will probab-
ly be an old style toilet, standing over
an unwalled vault dug few feet into
the ground. The greasy waters and
slops from the kitchen are either con-
veyed by pipe from the sink to hole
in the ground, or empited into the back
yard to purify and from which the
swarms of flies, attracted by the OBJ
noxious oders from this decaying mass
on the ground and in the toilet, carry
disease and death into the house, as
bees carry pollen from flower to flower.
In the winter seasons we do not have
the germ carrying flies to pollute our
food, but we have an agent equally as
pad in the rains, which saturate the
earth and carry the seepage from these
polluted places down through the
ground, uniting with and constantly
communicating the we'll water with ty-
phoid and other germs.
All of these dangers can be overcome
at comparatively small expense by
the installation of a properly designed
and constructed septic tank, with a
glazed verified sewerage system con-
Meeting the house and toilet with the
same. The tank being practically
buried in the ground and dramatically
sealed, with the inlet and outlet pipes
beneath the water, there can be no
oders escape from it. Even the water
from the outlet, or overflow, of the
tank is clear, odorless and germless,
all of which are owing'to the fact that
the specific gravity of all vegetable
and animal matter entering the tank
with its germs, odors, etc., cause it to
float to the surface of the water, which
J. is always maintained at considerable
distance above the overflow. Here il
floats undisturbed while in it certain
microbes develop which devour and de.
stroy it. A system of this kind can be
put in without investing in high priced
plumbing goods or the services of g
plumber, as it is constructed principal.
ly of concrete and sewer piping. Any
handy man should be able to install it
If septic tank system was properly
installed at such places as described il
this article, those homes would be az
sanitary as home in the city.

Constantinople, April 24.-The ad-
vance of the concentrated army of in
vestment was begun last night. While
the favored troops Of the Constantine
pie garrison were giving homage to the
sultan On Yildiz hill, there was a for
ward movement of the Constitutional
forces to within two and one-half miles
of the Yildiz Kiosk. Cavalry went
out to reconnoiter and soldiers were
sent to picket the bridge across the
Sweet Waters.
There was great panic. Shopkeep-
ers in large part of Pera put up their
shutters. British Ambassador Low
theirs was caught in the swirling crowd
near the embassy and hundreds of fran
tic persons poured into the embassy
compound, imploring asylum. The
gates of the embassy were closed with
difficulty, but it was late in the after
noon before the refugees were reassur-
ed and sent homeward.
A dispatch from Salonica declares
that after consultation of Schefket
Pasha and the assembly with Moham-
med Rechad Effendi, heir apparent to
the throne, it was decided to demand
that the Sheik- Ul-Islam issue decree
proclaiming Mohammed Rechad Effendi
sultan.
