inent figures of the Young Turk rev.
olution, to IAN unknown princess I"

dul Hamid that the young generals
reward would be based upon an an
cient Turkish custom-the bestowal
on the hero of the hand of an imperi-

General Emer, when he went to
Berlin, laughingly told his friends that
while he knew his promised bride
was a niece of the sultan and that she
had been described to him as beauti-
full and accomplished, he had never
seen her and did not suppose he ever
would see her.
When It was learned. however, that
the promise of the sultan was a very
serious matter Elmer Bey asked for
a two years postponement of the
ceremony. during which he might
widen the scope OF his international
knowledge by residence In England

UNDRAPED STATUE OF

Washington.-A nude statue of
Miss Natalie Barney is the wonder
and admiration of the vicinity of Mrs.
Albert Clifford Barney's magnificent
residence in Massachusetts, avenue.
This statue. which Is pure Carrara
marble, is the work of Miss Alice
Barney. sister of the subject of the
statue, and both the young ladies are
daughters of Mrs. Barney, who has a
studio in Paris.
The work appears to be modelled
after the deserted "Ariadne," and is
highly appreciated by art critics 1t
was the intention of Mrs. Barney to
place the work, of course, within the
residence, When shipped here, how
ever, the statue was so large that 1t
could not be taken through the door
OF the Barney mansion. 1t was thus
forced, for the present, at least, to
pass its life in the open air and the
passersby who go there in thousands,
have an opportunity of view of the
splendid work.

SHARK KILLS SEA LION
IN TWO-HOUR FIGHT

In a relentless struggle that only
terminated when one of the combat
ants succumbed to the attacks of his
opponent, a huge sea lion and a great
ground shark battled for almost two
hours yesterday morning.
Though the sea lion made a brave
stand and inflicted injuries that
would probably have proved fatal to
his twelve-foot antagonist, he was fl
nally so weakened by loss OF blood
that his movements became too slow
to circumvent the rushes of the
shark.
The end came when the shark
caught his smaller antagonist close
behind the head and held on until the
sea lion was dead. At this point Yum
Cow. a Chinese shrimp fisher, and a
number of his assistants, approached
the zone of battle, and after a half
hours effort managed to kill the VIC
tor.
The duel occurred off Bay Farm
island and followed an encounter
with the Chinese shrimp nets. Be-
coming entangled and trying to extri-
cate themselves the two champions
came together. They turned upon
each other and the battle was on.
Throughout the strife the Chinese
made number of vain efforts to
participate. hoping to end the war and
so save their nets,-San Francisco

THREE HUNDRED THOUS-
AND FOR ORCHARD MEN

With $4,000 in the Freewater
branch of the bank of Milton at the
present time, with checks to the
amount of nearly $4,000 written
within the last three weeks, and with
100000 due for collection within the
next 80 days, Manager H. D. Lamb of
the Milton Fruitgrowers' union an
nounced yesterday that the seasons
business will amount to considerably
more than 100000, almost one-third
of a million dollars and just three
times what was done by the union
last year, says the Milton Eagle.
At the present time the union is
shipping five to six cars of fancy and
choice apples to eastern markets. A.
Tanke. who is in charge of the apple
shipments this season, has a large
force of pickers and packers at work
and announces that good progress is
being made in handling the valleys
crop.
Owing to the wonderfully increas-
ed amount of apples above the first
estimate made by growers, there is
being some difficulty experienced in
securing sufficient boxes to take care
Of the crop. This Is being minimized
as much as possible, however, and 1t
is thought the worst is over, as sew
eral lots of boxes are expected soon.

MANUEL WOULD LIKE
TO LEAD AN ORCHESTRA

Parls.-It is very interesting to note
the first official diplomatic news Of
the revolution and proclamation OF
a republic in Portugal was sent by
the British minister at Lisbon to Sir
Edward Grey of the foreign office In
London. The contents Of this Off
cial wire were Immediately telephon-
ed TO your correspondent in Paris.
The news created the most intense
excitement in this country where the
young king Of Portugal has been a
recent guest, enjoying happy boylsh
holiday.
The young king made many friends
in Paris. He was greatly admired
by men and an especial favorite with
the women. Many anecdotes or
him are remembered in Paris 1t Is
well known that he had no ambition
TO mount the throne. His great love
in life is music and painting.
When the late King Edward VII
presented his elder brother with the
Order of the Garter, Manuel then
quite boy, said:
'T suppose it pleases him because
he is born to be n king. AS for me-
I would rather be the leader of an or
