. Cannot Understand Hatred.

various interesting conversat tons have
been the outcome of Abdul Hamid 81 news
paper reading. When he read the account
OF the investiture of his brother as sui
tan, amid the accamations of the popu-
lace, he WAS considerably agitated
Why is it," he demanded. that the
people like my brother when they hate
me.
"Beca USE he was told, 1.-THE people do
net like what you like, and like what you
do not
a grunt of disapproval was the ex-
sultans only response. He has a consid-
cradle aversion to the Constantinope jour
nal, feni Gazeta. Frequently he gives
vent to his disgust at this newspaper.
One day he was complaining to Fethy
Bey. his chief guardian, Of his lack of
occupation when / have no papers to
read he said, II have nothing to do; l
do not amuse myself at ALL"
Fethy Bey replied, asking him why he
did not write the memoirs of his reign.
You continually aver" said Fethy,
that you have been cruelty misjudged,
and that you have done only good by
Turkey. Write your memoirs, and per-
haps the people will then understand how
they have misjudged YOU

excellent idea, but / have not here the
necessary notes to compile such vol

in silent thought, and then he added,

Maltreated Small Animals.

1T is said that as a young man Abdul
Hamid was wont to maltreat small an
finals with the sole object of seeing them
suffer. This trait would scent to have de-
veloped i'll later years to total lack of
sympathy and consideration for those
about him.
His wives and attendants are ofttimes
as hardly put to for something to do as
their master himself. and have requested
that they, too, may be allowed TO read
the newspa pers. What do YOU want with
Newspapers" he demands; they are not
for you to read" And lest his desires on
this matter be disobeyed he takes the

.Agains his son Hami Effendi had formed
an acquaintance with some of the Turk
ish officers charged with his fathers
safety, and was wont to converse with
them in the garden. When Abdul heard
OF this he was exceedingly an4ry. and alb
solute!y forbade his son to sneak to any
body.
But perhaps the worst instances of his
hardness OF heart and cynical cruelty are
the following: When Abdul Hamid took
train at Constantirfople among the few
people present was the woman who had
been foster-mother to Hamid Effendi, and
VINO, no doubt, because of the blighted
future OF the youth she had nurtured
from birth. was crying bitterly Perceiv-
ing tins the imperial prisoner faced his
Wafders and demanded: What is that
woman doing here: who told her to come !?

MACHlNlSTS STRIKE ON
BALTIMORE AND OHIO

Baltimore. May Silt was an.
nounecd ntonlght that President Jane
O'Connell OF the International Ma
chinists' union has sent out a call FOR
a general strike for all machinists
employed iu the repair shops Of the
Baltimore & ohio railroad system to-
morrow The action was taken. 1t is
said. because OF the refusal Of the
company 20 abolish the piece work
system recently introduced at the
Mount Claire shops In this city.
It is understood that not only the
machinists but the boilormakers and
machinists' helpers and pipe filters
viii strike also. Their organizations
took up the matter with the railrond
company but were unsuccessful in
getting them to sign an agreement
whereby piece work, the bone of con-
tcntion. should be abandoned.
