A moment later. In the queer little SUBJ
marine office, Del Mar. had evidently
planned to take up the nefarious secret
work on which he was engaged. Several
men OF a naval and military bearing
were seated about table already, study
ing maps and plans and documents of all
descriptions. They did not seem TO be
long to any nation in particular. In fact,
their uniforms. II such they might be
called. were OF a character 70 disguise
their nationality. But that they were
hostile to the country under which they
literally had,thelR hidden retreat, of that
there could be no doubt.
How high Del Mar stood in their coun-
sels could have been seen at a glance
from the instant deference exhibited at
the mere mention Of his name by the
sentry who entered. with the submarine
suit while Del Mar got himself together
after his remarkable trip.
The men at the council table rose and
ssiuted as Del Mar himself entered. He
returned the salute and quietly made his
way TO the head of the table. where he
took, seat. naturally.
This Is an area in which we must work

him a book and opening It. "And we

Life of a Turkish Woman.

The Turkish women are to be count
ed among the most Industrious women
of the earth They certainly do vast
amount Of work. They make carpets,
screens for doors. workings, horse
clothing and blankets. A Turkish girl
makes all the kibitka, OF tent dOmes-
tic carpets, and other household requi-
sites before she is married. If she
gets married without completing this
task it is expected that she will by
her own labor refund the money which
her parents have given as her dowry.
This dowry usually consists of 100
sheep and a certain amount of money,
which bridegroom either pays down
in lump sum to the parents Of the
bride to collect his friends for a sue
cession Of horse races and ether sports.
An important part is to decorate
camel with the handsomest trappings,
which are sent to the brides tent On
this she goes forth to receive cOngrat-
ulations of her relatives and friends. 1t
Is on this she is carried away by the
female relatives Of the bridegroom.
She and her attendants feign to resist
the act by throwing raw oats at the
other women.-IndianapOl News.

Planting Sugar Cane.

In a bulletin of the Pan-American
union on cane sugar in the Americas
it is stated that sugar cane is planted,
not sown. A small piece of the cane,
long enough to include two or three of
the rings, or nodes, is laid lengthwise,
or stuck in a slanting direction, along
a furrow which runs the length of the
field. In some sections the primitive
fashion of planting in holes is still en-
ployed. When the trench is planted
the pieces Of cane are lightly covered
with earth. In a few weeks they show
growth above the ground, the germ
buds at the rings having begun to
shoot out in the form Of young cane,
the ring having at the same time
thrown out rootlets into the soil. The
parallel trenches are made far enough
apart, say at least three feet. to en-
able the workers when the wide
spreading canes are getting ripe to go
between the rows and remove the dy
ing leaves which burden the ripening
cane, thereby enabling the naked cane
to mature faster.

than Wild, thief taker and receiver of
stolen goods, who did such a flourish

fee in the Old Bailey two centuries
ago. He organized his thieves into
gangs, allotting them to the different
main roads to London, to churches,
theaters and public functions, while
a special brigade was trained for do
nestle service. Wild's practice when
receiving stolen goods was, if possible,
to inform the person who had been
robbed that they had been detained by
a dealer and would be restored on pay
ment Of commission. Other stolen
property was warehoused, and a staff
of mechanics was kept for altering
watches and jewelry, which were con-
