The great mutiny, which broke out
in April. 1857. was due to the wilfuI
disregard of the religious prejudices
and caste customs of the native sol
diers. There was much fierce fight
ing, especially at Delhi, Cawnpore and
at the defense of Lucknow. The relief
of the latter city by Sir Colin Camp
bell practically broke the back of the
revolt. Mana Sahih, who massacred
surrendered prisoners at Cawnpore,

PERSIAN TREASURER GENERAL

one of the most remarkable situa-
tons in history is happening in the
case of the young American, William
Morgan Shnster, who, as treasurer
general of the Persian empire, has
been besting the keenest diplomats OF
Europe for the past six months. This
young man is only thirty-four years
old and he started life as ste
nographer.
This yogngster, who has one OF the
biggest contracts in the world on his
hands, was born in Washington, d. e.,
in 1877. His parents live there still.
After his graduation from Columbia,
Shuster obtained position as ste
nographer in the war department at
Washington. When the Spanish war
broke out he was made assistant sec

BeIaScO-"Excuse Me" Next Week.
Excuse Me-" the farce that Henry w.
Savage will present at the Belasco Thea
ter next week, beginning with a madnee
on New Years Day, is unlimited laugh
ter on a limited express train. The scenes
of the comedy are Il Pullman sleeper and
the club car Of the overland limited. and
Chicago TO Reno.
Episodes of the trip and the happenings
TO train crew and passengers provide
the play with bright and laughable com
edy. AS the actual trip from Chicago TO
Reno occupies four days and covers 1000
miles. it follows that four days of fun
and ECO miles of mirth are compressed
into each performance of Excuse Me,
which is surely the speed limit for farce
and for laughter. Good-natured and ILL
natured passengers, seasoned travellers,
Rnd others to whom a railroad trip is
an event and a Pullman berth an affair
of wOndrous mystery, and a train crew
and Pullman porter who combine every
cOmicallty of their kind are the persons
in the farce.
There are unloOked-for encounters and
unexpected happenings and surprising
adventures every mile and every minute,
the whole uniting in a comedy that is
chock-fulI of lively humor.
The piece has been a great New York
success since il was in Washington last
season, having recently concluded run
of eight months at the Gayety Theater.

TEACH CHILDREN TO SEW
They Will Learn Readily and 1t viii Help Them
When They Are Grown Up.

Needlework is one of the courses taught
in the elementary schools but it is sur
prising how few young women graduated
from the high schools know how to do
the simplest things in practical sewing.
Stitching, unless it has an object in view,
is considered merely task work. 1t must
be made interesting IL the attention and
interest of the child is to be held, and
for this reason, il for no other, girls
should be taught as soon as possible to
cut out and make some garment that
will be more than a sample and that
they can wear themselves.
Teachers who really understand chill
dren know that there is nothing so dis
Couraging as to see that their work has
been done for no purpose except to be
looked at and thrown away.
The joy in creating something is as
strong in children as in adults; therefore,
to teach a child to sew, 1t is wisest to
allow her to make herself some simple
garment as soon as she has learned the
few necessary stitches that are essential
in ordinary sewing. The interest of
child is excited and maintained if she
feels that she herself is responsible for
the construction of something. Let her
begin on a dolls petticoat, which en-
braces several important stitches: name
ly, running, hemming, overcasting, gath
ering and the buttonhole stitch. Sue
