compelled the engineer to convey
them to Tarsus, where they took part
in the destruction OF the Armenian
quarter OF that town, which Is the
best part of Tarsus. Their work ot
looting was thorough and rapid. II
is said that they fred the great his.
toric Armenian church at Tarsus, the
most important building In the city
They demolished marble statute:
and shattered important tables
Everything portable was carried
away, but the church itself resisted
their attempts to burn It. Fortu

This was owing 70 the proximity o
the American college, where foul
thousand destitute and homeless per

seemed to anger the negro. That's

heep louder or I will never hear"
Then Pope who seemed to guide
the money venture asked, What will
satisfy you?"
twenty-five hundred dollars, all
cash, and my seat not to be dis
turbed"
That gave the boys a rift. Every
thing is off. We will all go home
and trust to luck. Can't raise the

This brought Bridges ear lower

is done"
Chairs began to shuttle as II the
party was. about to disperse. Then
spoke up Pope. Bridges, this ia our
last offer. We VIII pay you down to-
night $500, then as soon as you arc
sworn In. will pay you 81. 900 more
Then. drawing long breath, scan
ming the ceiling the while, Bridges
said: We'll. I'll take 1t, give me
my money"
The money was counted out. then
after he had been sworn In; he re-
paired to the back end. Of the hall

Now these are the facts OF the
