TURKISH WOMEN.

They Are Curiously FastidIous In
Some Of Their Ways.
The habits of the Turkish women of
Constantinople are wonderfully fastidi-
Gus. For instance, when they wash
their hands at tap from which water
runs into marble basin the fair ones
will let the water run until a servant
shuts it off, inasmuch as to do this
themselves would render them 'un-
clean" They cannot open or shut
door. as the handle would be unclean.
One of these fastidious women was
not long ago talking to a small niece
who had just received present of a
doll from Paris. BY and by the child
laid the doll in the lady's lap. She
was Mortified and ordered the child to
take it away. AS the little girl would
not move it and no servant was near
and the lady would be defiled by touch
ing doll that had been brought from
abroad, the only resource left her was
to Jump up and let the doll fall. 1t
broke in pieces.
Another Turkish woman would not
open a letter coming by post, but re-
quired a servant to break the seal and
hold the missive near her that 1t might
be read; also should her handkerchief
fall to the ground it was Immediately
destroyed or given away, so that she
might not again use it.-Exchange.

ROYAL STANDARD.

LONDON, Eng, May 16. Few persons are aware that there are forms and ceremonies connected with the use of the British flags, besides the regulations as to the signalling of messages and tine displays in the times of general rejoicing. But there are, and the use of the Royal Stand. ard is an interesting case in point. It is never lowered on occasion of death, excepting in the ease of the sovereign, and this has accounted for the late Kings colors at his castles and palaces always beiag at the mast. head while the Union Jack and the white ensigns of the navy have been at half-mast on tho death of a mem. Der or relative of the royal family. On the demise of the King the Stan. dard was lowered, probably for the first time since his majesty's access. ion. The position of the Standard on the flagstaff at Buckingham Palace every morning during the last illness of the King was matter of much interest to the many journalists and others.

Cagle Youth, Former Prescott Resident. In
 New Difficulty
FSom Tuesdays Daiiy)

NfW IT.. NhHit, bOh UT htN' N' "' Cagle. formerly pastor of the South Methodist church of Prescott, is again in trouble. While here ne shot a boy in Mayer, who was tsntalizing him, but he was fortunate in disentagling himself from the meshes of the law. His latest experience was on Sunday, when after marrying a handsome girl of wickenburg, his mother.in.lsw, Mrs. F.. ]. Ford, took possession of his bride at Hot Springs Junction, and young Cagle is now sad and discon- solate.
 The Phoenix Republican says of the affair:
 Passengers on the incoming train from the north yesterday afternoon saw the curious aftermath of a wed. ding when the irate mother of the bride took possession of her at Hot Springs Junction within very few hours after the performance of the ceremony at wickenbure, whence the happy couple were coming to receive the parental blessing.
 "The groom is Ned F.. Cagle, son of Rev. c. NJ. Cagle, and the bride was Miss Gladys Ford, daughter of Mir. and Mrs. F.. J. Ford, of the Cartwright neighborhood.
 "Tae first information of this un. happy ending came to Phoenix in a telephone message from Mir. Cagle, asking official help in the recovery of his wife, who, he said, wanted to come to him. It was his impression that what was to be done would have to be done quickly, for he said it was the purpose of the mother to spirit her daughter out of the coun- try.
 "Mr. Cagle also wired Judge Kent about it. The judge could not take judicial eognizance of the affair, but in his capacity of private citizen on Sunday, he advised Mir. Cagle to get the services of an attorney. "The opposition of Mrs. Ford, ae- cording to Mir. Cagle. was of the flimsiest character. He said that he had always enjoyed the esteem of his motherin-law and that she had had no objection to the marriage until af. ter it was all over. Then she demur. red because the ceremony had not been performed by the groom s father but by the Rev. Mir. Hardin, who is not only warm friend of the young man, but also a co.worker with his father in the Cartwright and Fowler enighborhoods.
 "The mother, on the other hand, said at Hot Springs Junction, when she took forcible possession of the bride, that she had signed no written consent, and moreover, had not thought of such a thing.
 "Both sides to the affair are we'll connected. The bride is the hand. some daughter of one of the most re- spectable families of the valley and the groom is said to be an exemplary young man. He has been employed for some time as telegraph operator at Kelvin and he came from that place little more than week ago in the company of MT. Hardin.
