ship at Saloniki that be was marked
for a career Of future distinction. A
former graduate Of the Pancaldi Stan

jealous star officer, his professional
zeal being the cause OF his denuncia-
ton by the sultan's spies. OF good
family and high character, cultured.

has always been popular with his mil
itary comrades.
At the time OF the rising Of the mutt
neers, April Is. he was In Berlin TO
negotiate for the purchase Of arms.
He at once departed for Saloniki. by
way Of Vienna. accompanied by Haiku

In the highest terms by the late min
lister Of war. ALI Ria Pasha. although
he had not hesitated to criticise the
latter for employing Saloniki officers
In Constantinople on personal political
business. At Salonikl Enver Bey was
the life and spirit OF the committee on
union and progress. although the po-
litical work that he was obliged to do
there was distasteful to him. He IA
essentially an organizer.
Major NiaZi. who commanded the
van Of the army which entered Pera

ferent class to Enver Bey. being Of
peasant birth and indifferently edu-
Gated. He Is a regimental officer, his
education not qualifying him for stan

him as a good practical soldier, but his
past career has not been blameless. for
he Is known to have been oppressive
in carrying out orders when In COM
mand Of parties Of soldiers sent into
villages to recover arms and punish
disorder. Still. at Monastlr last sum-
mer he acted with courage and de-
cision at time when his fellow on

How Young Missouri Farmer Moved
His Property.
In the days Of 40 our forefathers
sometimes invested their last dollar in
a team and a prairie schooner. A gen.
Grafton or two has not made Il great
deal OF difference In that spirit Of ad-
venture. The prairie schOoners are
lighter because the roads are better
and the dangers OF travelling are less.
But there are still plenty OF farmer
bOys-and city men. toO-whO will put
their last dollar into a prairie schOOn-
er.
That is what w. J. Abel. a young
farmer from near ST. Joseph. Mo-, did
recently. He couldn't afford the ex-
pense Of shipping his horses and wag-
on and chickens and COW to Marvin.
Mo-. so he put a canvas and OilclOth
cover on the wagon. furnished it with
hay and boxes Of breakfast food and
an alright stove. Then he nailed
some chicken cOOps on the bottom Of
the tailbOard for his twenty-five chick
ems. They furnish him with eggs Pv-
cry day. All that was left to do after
that was to tie his COW TO the wagon,
hitch his horses and say "giddap."
