A TURKISH LEGEND.
The Red Rose Sprang From Drop of
Mohammeds Blood.

The Red Rose Sprang From a Drop of
Mohammed's Blood.
"a truly religious Turk looks upon
the rose with great reverence" said
a florist. 'The rose is beyond ques-
ton the prettiest flower that blooms,
and it was so considered by the Turks
many years before the conquest of
Granada. There is a religious legend
generally believed in throughout Tur-
key that the red rose sprang from a
drop of the great prophet Mohammed's
blood. Every .-.ss -eNutiful in nature
is ascribed to him. he Turks, there
fore, have great revei~uce for the
flower and allow it to bloom and die
untouched, except on state occasions
and for the purpose of making rose
water.
after the conquest by the Turks
they would not worship in any church
until the walls were cleansed and
washed with rosewater and thus puri-
fed by the blood of the prophet. 1t
Is used on the body for the same pur-
pose. A Turk whose conscience is
stung by some act or deed he has COM
mitted will caress and pay reverence
to the rose to appease the wrath of
che prophet and Allah.
with these ideas inculcated in him
from youth it would shock him severe

One night when the Earl of Stanhope
was walking alone in the Kentish
lanes man jumped out of the hedge,
leveled pistol and demanded his
purse.
my good man, l have no money
with me-" said Lord Stanhope in his
remarkably slow tones. The robber
laid hands on his watch
"No," Lord Stanhope went on; that
watch you must not have. 1t was CIV
en- to me by one love. 1t is worth
800. If you will trust me, l will go
back to Chevening and bring a f100
note and place it in the hollow of that
tree l cannot lose my watch"
The man did trust him The earl did
bring the note. Years after Lord Stan
hope was at a city dinner, and next to
aim sat London alderman of great
wealth, a man widely respected. He
and the earl talked of many things
and found each other mutually enter
tanning.
Next day Lord Stanhope received a
letter, out of which dropped a 600
note. 1T was your lordship's kind
loan of this sum-" said the letter, that
started me in life and enabled me to
have the honor of sitting next to your
lordShip at dinner"

Superior Youth Gets Nothing More

When asked how it got there Larson
said he did not know, but remembered
several days ago, young Berg had been
shooting a gun to demonstrate its eff

another youth, but he could not re-

ing that Larson had been hit with a
bullet from the gun and did not even
know it. the would-be purchaser of the
gun called off the deal. 1t is the first
case on record here where a fine as
small as $40 and costs was required
for shooting a man.
