one Of his pursuers caught sight Of
him. Neither entreaties nor urgent
advice regarding the danger to his
health from remaining permanently
indoors nor stringent medical orders
can induce Abdul Hamid to leave the
house and take exercise In the gar
den.
He not only refuses to leave the
house, but remains stubbornly on the
first floor of the villa. He refuses to
descend to the ground floor, believing
that there is danger of bombs being
concealed in the cellar. Likewise he
refuses to ascend to the second floor,
because he fears that the villa might
be set on fire and that he might per-
ish before escape was possible
Trembling day and night for his
life, the unhappy ex-sultan leads a
miserable existence He never un-
dresses, and he suffers from in
ders during. the night from room to
room and finally he drops exhausted
to fltful slumber on some ottoman.
During the daytime he works as a
carpenter. He recently completed a
large wardrobe. C,lriously enough he
has burning desire to sell it, not
so much, 1t appears. TO earn money as
to convince. himself that his manual
labor can produce something worth
buying. Whatever the cause may be,
he entreats his warders for permis-
sion to send the wardrobe away from
the villa to be sold. But this request
has been refused, because the Turk
ish government fear that the ward
robe might conceal within the wood
some undesirable communication to
the ex-sultan's friends.
Abdul Hamid hears nothing what
ever Of events happening outside the
walls surrounding the villa grounds.
Neither he himself nor his two wives
nor the servants who followed him
into captivity are allowed to read the
newspapers.
Abdul Hamid's keen wish to as
certain what is happening in the
world led him to attempt to bribe one
of the warders, to whom he offered a
hundred pounds for the latest news
papers,. When warders or officers
speak to him. the ex-sultan tries to
start conversation with them, but
they have orders to listen to his. ques-
tions. but to give indefinite replies.
Abdul Hamid's first question is:
What do the people think and say
about me?" He has also repeatedly
inquired whether other European
monarchs have expressed opinions
about him. If so,@in what way? And
then he clamors for details of the
resolution which ended in his over

MOTHER AND BABE
WASHED ASHORE
Bodies Are Recovered From
Wreck of French Steamer
General Chanzy

PALMA, Island of Ma ajorca, Feb. 13.-
The supposition that the boilers of the
French transatlantic steamer Genera |
Cbanzy exploded after she struck on
the reefs near the island of Minorca
Thursday night is based largely upon
the character Of the wreckage of the
ship, which was reduced almost to
klndling. The work of salvage and re-
covery of bodies continues but is
greatly retarded by the high seas.
Among the bodies washed ashore was
that of woman with q baby clasped
in her arms.
Some May Survive
PARIS, Feb. f3.-Auhough special
dispatch from Toulon to the journal
des Debsts says it is reported that
some survivors from the steamer Gen
eral Chanzy were landed on a neigh
boring island. no confirmation can be
obtained. On the contrary. everything
indicates that Marcel Rodel alone es-
/ capped. The loss is given officially as
15S.
At daylight a aotilla of six torpedo
boat destroyers sailed from Cannes at
top speed for the scene of the wreck.
Navy Tug Still Missing
BOSTON, Feb. lS-No news of the

Flremen Hold Annual Picnic.

At the invitation of C. C. Selvig
the firemen Of WiIlmar held their
annual outing at his cottage and
grounds at Eagle Lake last Sunday
No more enjoyable gathering has
ever been held by the fire laddies.
There were about sixty present,
among them were members of the
city council, board of health and
commercial club, who came as in
vited guests. The dinner was ex-
ceptionally fine and in the SWIM
ming, running and jumping
races a number of wonderful stunts
were performed. In fact so stren-
GUS were the efforts of some to win
honors that even walking has been
an effort since. At the business
meeting a full report of the conven-
tion at Alexandria was given.
