Lord Cheyiesmore in the Strand.
I am inclined to think that witnessed
the most impressive sight OF my life Sun
day. March 3. 1873. the day on which the
signatures were attached to the treaty
Of peace between Russia and Turkey at
San stefano.
In order to arrange terms OF peace an
armistice had been declared January q.
and slowly the rumor spread that when,
Sunday. March g. a review was to take
place in honor OF the Cars acceptance
Of the throne, there was more than a
possibility that peace might also be con-
cluded that day. In consequence, large
number of excursionists from Constanti-
nople arrived at San Stefano by steam
boat shortly after dawn, and when, as
early as in the morning. the whole OF
the Imperial Guard-a magnificent body
of some 5000 Incorporated before the
quarters Of the Grand Duke Nicholas.
even at that early hour a crowd of over
twenty thousand spectators had assem-
bled.
Slowly the hours passed. and o'clock
In the afternoon came and went without
any movement from the house. so that
at last the dread fear pegan TO pervads
the expectant watchers that even npv
some difnculty might have arisen which
would prevent the signing Of the articles
OF peace.
Happily, however. this fear proved un-
founded. War, after all. was not to
break out. The review was delayed owing
to the fact that the Grand Duke was
waiting for the signatures to be attached
to the treaty. which could not be done
until the Russian and Turkish copies of
that document were complete.
Whether the delay was caused by the
weil-known dilatory tactics OF the TurR
1 know not. The fact remains, however.
that II was not TIL close on in the
afternoon that the Grand Duke rode up
to the diplomatic chancery and asked at
the door II the treaty was ready. As he
waited for reply the agitation Of the
crowd grew 30 intense as to almost roach
breaking point. Groups OF anxious watch

ers whispered nervously: "Is it to be
peace or war? Was the PROSTATE and
gasping Turk to be called upon to once
more put up the best defense he could
to the relentless and ever-advancing Rus
sian forces?"
The Grand Duke. wheeling sharply
round, galloped on to the hill on which
the army was drawn up, and few min
utes afterward a carriage was seen rap
idly driving toward the spot.
AS he approached, the commander-in-
chief, Gen. Ignatiei. rose, and, speak
ing very slowly and distinctly, said: II
have the honor to congratulate your high
ness on the signature OF peace"
A roar of satisfaction rose from the
soldiers in the ranks. The Grand Duke
rode between the lines, and, halting on q
small hill. exclaimed: 'I have the honor
to inform the army that, with the help
OF God. we have concluded q treaty of
peace" Again the cheering rose and
swelled. for there was not a man present
who did not experience feeling of in
tense relief that all possibility Of q re-
newal Of war was now at an end
All the officers then dismounted, the
soldiers knelt, and, Of a sudden. a great
hush spread over the crowd, which had
only few seconds before, been noisily
elated with excitement.

Held IN ST. James Palace Between
Delegates Of Balkan Allies
and Those Of Turkey

London, June 9.--The final session
of the peace conference between the
delegates of the Balkan allies and
those of Turkey was held today at
St. James palace and ended without
anything being decided as to the ex-
change of prisoners or other matters.
The delegates agreed to leave all out.
standing questions to their respective
governments.
Each of the Balkan delegates ad-
v'sed its government to conclude a
second convention with Turkey.
The Montenegro delegate who pre-
sided at today's session delivered a
speech of farewell in which he ex-
pressed his colleagues homage to
King George and their thanks to the
British government and to Sir Ed
ward Grey, the British foreign secre-
tary, for the hospitality shown them
and the counsel given them.

HAULING HOGS
IN HOT WEATHER


Since there are many hogs lost
every summer while being hauled to
market one should make arrange
ments for such hauling in advance.
Not only of the hot weather, but the
jolting about of the animals in the
wagon causes them to worry and ov-
erheat themselves.
Bolster springs on the wagon in
which hogs are marketed will great
ly diminish the danger from jolting.
Next, the floor of the wagon box
should be covered with leaves or lit
ter of some kind and thoroughly dam
pened with cold water before starting
on the trip to market. II all but the
lower box of the wagon can be con.
structed OF stats, similar TO a fence
of boards. free circulation of air is
established, which is of great assist
snce in keeping the hogs cool.
After these precautions have been
taken, make sure that you do not
crowd the wagon and smother some
OF the fatter animals; then cut some
green brush with heavy foliage. and
form canopy over the load of hogs
to protect them from the hot sun
Hang a bucket on the wagon and stop
occasionally on the road to market
splashing some water over the ami
mails and on the litter. Where the
hogs are pretty hot, however, 1t is
well to be careful in applying the
water.
