RUSSIANS TAKE
 TURKISH TOWN Van, In Eastern Asia Minor, Now Held By Czar's SoIdiers-Turks Have
 Killed Christians.

TELLS, May 25-The Russian army has occupied the Turkish city of Van on Lake Van in eastern Asia Minor. The Russians are trying to protect Christians, who are being molested by the Turks, and reports here indicate that thousands of Christian Assyrians and Armenians have been slaughtered by the Turks and Kurds. The women have been assaulted or taken cap. tives to become the slaves of Turks and Kurds and have heen dragged from their homes in spite of the pro- tests of American missionaries and consular agents.
 The Turkish troops in eastern Asia Minor have been defeated and are fleeing westward to join the new forces that are reported as coming to their assistance. The German off cers commanding the Turks have had great difficulty in controlling the troops.

Little Steamer Makes Record and Reaches Nome Earliest In History
 Crowds Greet Steamer.

NOME, May 25.-The little steamer Corwin reached here at 4:3O yester- day afternoon and flags were flying and all whistles blowing to welcome the first steamer of the year to enter the Nome roadstead. The boat had scarcely reached the roadstead when the work of unloading began and fresh fruits, perr,es and vegetables, which have been unknown nere for months, were placed on sale. Several restaurant owners endeavored to cor ner the supplies brought on the boat but failed.
 A small amount of private mail was brought on the Corwin but the postal department refused to give the ship the mail for Nome, which will come north on the revenue cutter Bear and the regular mail boats.
 The earliest the Corwin has reach ed here previous to this has been on May 27th, and thus two days have been taken from the record. The boat brought 102 passengers.

there Is any cure for n bunion?"
To which the medical journalist re.
plies:
You will get help from u) walking
pigeon toed; (2) wearing sandals"
The doctor does not mention 1t, bu.
a bad case of pigeon toes can be cured
by walking bow legged. The remedy
for chronic bowlegs is to walk knock

pigeon toes again one can. of course
