with perspiration. A crowd
quickly collected. Campbell stood
over the suffering animal with oa
long whip and lashed it about the
body and head. He also kicked
the horse and otherwise tried TO
make it get on its feet. The
CLASSY stare in the animals eyes

REFUGEES AT IGDIR
During Past -Four Months
Massacres Have Been
Very Frequent.

TELLS -Caucasia, Aug. 10
Wia Pctrograd and London, 1920
p. m.)-Thc Armenian bishop has re-
ceived word that $4,000 Armenian
refugees have arrived at Igdir, the
principal outlet Of the Vil,yet of Van.
1t is thought fully 100000 will be
driven from Van alone, and another
exodus of Christians from Persia is
feared
Kurds are reported to have mass
acred 10000 Armenians in the Vilayet
Of Bitlis, throwing the bodies of the
victims into the Tigrs and Euphrates
rivers.
B. Varazdate, a member of the
committee of the Armenian social
Democratic party. writing to EHum-
ante of Paris, on August 2, said the
committee had received word to the
effect that the Turks after massacre
ing all the males Of the population in
the region of Bitlis, Turkish Armenia,
assembled nine THOUSAND women and
children and drove them TO the banks
of the Tigris, where they shot them,
throwing the bodies into the river.
Reports Of massaCres Of Armenians
at various points have been received
frequently in the last four months.
Six thousand were said to have been
slain at Van in May. American mis-
sionaries at Van have played a prOmi-
nent part in protecting Armenians
from Turkish and Kurdish attacks.
The Armenians are defending them
selves as best they can with whatever
weapons are available.
The head of the Armenian church
was reported early this month to have
sent TO President Wilson an appeal to
the American nation to protest
against Armenian mussaCres and the
violent removal of Armenians from
Constantinople and Galicia (Asia

how he came across a white boy, some
fourteen years old, and a group OF raw
natives playing a game. They were

shotgun at bottle on the top Of a
case. When the youngster smashed
a bottle he received a "tickey' a

When native hit it he received three
