CHAPTER II.
"Hallo, my sou! Just ready for you,"
Bald Meryon.
"Honored lord, the prince commands
your presence!" quavered the boy, tiirl
tnteilly twisting together his slender
fingera.
Soring something was wrong. Jleryon
recognized the need of restoring Khars
ounliilence by preserving a bold front.
"(.'ommandu it, does he? Isn't the
old man overstraining himself a little?
Hut of course you meant to say that he
bi'KS to supplicate the privilege of
my company. Well, tell him to keep
his caftan on and I'll be round in the
course of a clay or two."
"Do not speali so, beloved lord!
llatipha. has found us out and told his
highness. Oh, If they kill you, 1 will
kill myself!" cried the child, bursting
Into tears.
Meryon, greatly touched, expressed It
in his American way by a loud laugh.
"Don't you fret, Khal, my jewel;
neither of us is going to iuit this sin
ful and hollow life for sixty or seventy
years to conn-, at least. Volt don't half
know me yet. 1 have but to clap my
Jiands and say: V.alah:' and the presi
dent of the I'nited States would march
Into the palace at the head of the army,
navy and New York police department,
and snatch up the whole court by the
scruff of the neck and dump it down
hard on IMackwell's Island yes, they
would! Hand me that stinking. And
talk about palaces! Wait till you see
the White Mouse. Khal, you don't know
luxury, gorgeotisness, extravagance.
Intrigue and corruption until you've
been naturalized In the states as a Jrf
fersonian Democrat or a Lincoln Repub
lican. This is a poor, simple, innocent
sort of place. Why, if llatipha were to
get among some ward politicians that 1
know, they'd mistake him for a new
born babe yes, sir!"
"1 wish we were there, mighty lord,"
siuiied Kbal, whose black eyes had
slowly expanded while he swallowed
this information. "How happy we
saooh! he!"
"Well, pack your grip, for we shall
be starting before long, all three of us.
Hand me that necktie, will you.' no.
tl'.e led one I'm out for blood this
Morninu! -Vow I seem to be about
ready, don't 1? I'll be back in an hour;
htay here tiil 1 come, and be a good
boy; do you hear'.'"
Thus did the young American go
foi til to battle. In one way the tight
was an uiieoiial me. and no one knew
it better than he. Hut in the east land
perhaps in otlnv platvsi nothing is to be
gained by a timorous or apologetic at
titude; and .Meryon was conscious,
moreover, of possessing certain re
sources, which, if nut immediately sub-

lie strolled with an insouciant nir
towards that part of the p.-.ineo build
ings in which the prince's apartments
lay. As he passed through the various
courts, halls and corridors he was tin;
object of a good deal of curious scrutiny
fikm thos.e who saw him, as if sumo
limt had got. abroad of his being In dif
ficulties'. He noticed, bir his part, that
I hero were signs of bustle anil uneasi
ness about which could hardly have
reference to himself. They had a mil
itary smack to them. War was In tho
air apparently. Rut Meryon limited
his interest for the moment to the war
in which his concern was a personal
one.
In the prince's ante-room was a knot
of courtiers and attendants, ll;itiih;i
fimnng them. His unseemly visage
wore a grimace of evil mockery as he
caught Meryon's eye, and as the litter
drew near he ostentatiously Ignored
his greeting and turned his amorphous
back upon hlrn. Meryon, with a pleas
ant smile, put forth his light hand and
caught the eunuch by the lobe of one
of his huge ears, upon which as a pivot
he swung him forcibly round. The
rrcatm-e squealed with pain, rage and
astonishment.
"Well, how is the old pudding this
morning?" the American lmpiired,
rweotly. "It mustn't forget Its su
periors, or Its manners. Waddle In and
tell his highness I desire to see him at
once on particular business."
The boldness of the rebuke stnrtled

all present, but all except llutipha him
self were manifestly pleased. The head
eunuch Is seldom a populur personage
in any place, and he had in this In
stance fewer friends than the average.
Rut Meryon's blood was getting up,
and he would have chastised the grand
vizier himself had that functionary bit
his thumb ut him.
He entered the royal presence close
upon Hatlpha's footsteps, thus depriv
ing the lutter of the opportunity of re-

lieving his heart of the venom which
the car incident hud set boiling there.
He salaamed with easy courtesy and
quietly elbowed the eunueli aside us In
wished his highness good morning.
Meryon had, as has been Intimated,
been permitted great freedom in the
palace, and was accustomed to observe
little ceremony in approaching the
prince; but the difference at a court be
tween a man in favor and out of it is as
great as between a musk rose and a
skunk cabbage. Meryon was we'd
aware of this, even before he met the
potentate's haughty stare; but a des
perate game must be dauntlessly
played, and dangers met half way.
The prince, a stout, aristocratic, but
self-iinlulgetit-looliing gentleman of
lift y. sat cross-legged amidst a pile of
cushions on a low divan, with the
snaky stem of a nurgileh in bis right
hand. He was alone, save for a couple
of Nubian mutes, one of whom kept
imaginary Hies off 1dm with a long
stemmed fan of ostrich feathers while
the other squatted at the bowl of the
pipe, ready to refill it as occasion de
manded. "Sir!" exclaimed the prince, erecting
himself indignantly on his royal
haunches, "do jou venture Into my
presence before I have sigidtied my
pleasure to receive you? Your lack of
resbect and ceremony amazes me!"
"Prince," replied Meryon, with Im
perturbable politeness, "I have a com
munication for your private ear your
private ear. prince," he repeated, with
a slight gesture of the head towards
llatipha, who was fairly dancing up
and down in the agony of his blood
thirsty impatience to recount his
grievances.
His highness hesitated a moment,
bending the full force of his glance
upon the young artist, who encountered
it with one full as steadfast and signifi
cant. "Retire!" he then said to the
eunuch, waving his hand in dismis
sal. "Rut, most illustrious son of heaven,"
began the inflamed functionary, "you
understand not."
"What!" roared the prince, in a sud
den fury; "am I told by the tilth that
nozes beneath my feet that 1 under
stand not? Retire instantly, or that
foul hide fif thine shall be stripped from
thy carrion carcass and serve as a mat
for dogs to sleep on!"
This explosion fairly blew the un
wieldy eunuch out of the room, turning
green as lie went with mingled terror
and unglutted malignity. The Ameri
can and the oriental were left face to
face.
"Now, sir," the latter set out, wi'll
the moililiod sternness of a monarch
who has just enjoyed the satisfaction
of scaring a subject half to death; but
Meryon interposed with cool suavity.
".Since your highness desires cere
mony, let me remind you that I have
not been asked to take a seat. May 1
inquire if you expect me to conduct this
Interview standing?"
The prince's breath temporarily for
sook him. Meanwhile he ami Meryon
eyed each oilier intently. Meryon by
this time was roused to the pitch of be
ing capable of anything. Rut his an
ger had the useful effect of collecting
instead of scattering ids faculties, and
lie was outwardly cold as sherbet and
calm as a June morning, lie was very
different from the genial, careless
young fellow who during tin past six
or eight weeks had amused und Inter
ested Ilie potentate. After a few
pregnant seconds the prince, re
llectlng that they Were alone (the
mutes didn't count) und Inwardly sen
sible of the Impress of a spirit lie had
not calculated on. Intimated that a
place beside him was ut the other's dis
posal. Meryon leisurely sat down und
pursued his advantage.
" tis clearly understand each
cither, prince," he said. "I have hitherto
met you with the Informal conlldence
which a friend naturally observes to
wards his friend; but I must tell you
that any attempt to Impose on my good
'
3tt
nature will be promptly checked. Is
that plain, or shall I more fully explain
myself?"-
Some real curloslt.; blended with the
outraged dignity of Ills highness as ho
usked: "What do you mean by talking
to me like that? Don't you know that
by a nod of the head I ran cuuse jjini to
lie bastinadoed, boiled In oil and bow
Btrung?" Met yon smiled; the smile broadened
to ti chuckle, und the chuckle expanded
into a loud and hearty peul of laughter.
The prince frowned, clutched his
beard, kicked off a. slipper, put his hand
toward the gong nnd withdrew It, und
then, abruptly overcome by the mys
terious absurdity of the situation, burst
Into roars of merriment as resonant as
his guest's. Hntlpha, hearing from
without tills combined uproar of mirth,
uttered u scream of despair and wad
dled frantically invity to the harem,
where he rent Ills robes and boxed the
cars of whomsoever was not active
enough to get out of his reach.
Ceasing at length and wiping the
tears from Ills cheeks with the gold
cmbroldercd nitlu cult of his caftan,
his highness panted out: "'And now,
what have we been laughing at?"

In June, lx:i:!, four young Armenians
and their wives, living only two miles
from the city of Van, where the gov

They carefully kept touelchcr ami In

were observed by a bund of passing
Kurds, who, In broad daylight. Ml up
on the defenseless party, butchered the
young men, and, us to the brides, It Is
needless to relate further. The villag
ers, going out the next day, found the
four bodies, not only dead, but slashed
and dlsllgured almost beyond recogni
tion. They resolved to make a desper
ate effort to let their wrongs at least be
known.
Hastily yoking up four rude ox curts
they placed on each the naked remains
of one of the victims, with ills distract
ed widow silting by his side, shorn of
her hair in token of dishonor. This
gruesome procession soon reached the
outskirts of the city, where it was nu t

not heard. The soldiers shrink from
extreme measures that might cause
trouble among the .Ht.utm Armenians at
Van, who are now rapidly gathering
about the scene. The Turkish bayonets
retreat before the bated breasts of the
villagers. With ever Increasing num
bers, but without tumult the procession
passed before the doors of the Riitlsh
inn! Russian vice-consulates, of the
Persian consul-general, the chief of po
lice and other high olllcials, till it
paused before the great palace of the
governor.
At this point Rahrl Pasha, who Is still
governor, stuck his head out of the sec
ond story window and said: "I see it.
Too bad! Take them sway and bury
them. I will do what is necessary."
Within two days some Kurds were
brought in, among whom were several
who were positively Identified by the
women; but. upon their denying the
crime, they were immediately released
and escaped. The utter hopelessness
of securing any justice was so apparent
and experience had so often demon
strated the danger of arousing the
Kurds to greater atrocity by further
efforts to punish them, that the case
was dropped and Soon forgotten in the
callousness produced by the other cases
of frequent occurrence.

QUEER ROLLING STOCK.
The Congo Hallway's Novel Exhibit in
Antwerp.
Among the Interesting .exhibits at the
Antwerp exhibition wen examples of
the rolling stock for the Congo railway,
nn undertaking of much Importance,
concerning which but little has been
published that conveys nctual informa
tion. It may be recalled that Stanley
unci said that the Immense resources
of the entire Congo state would not be
worth two shillings If the road was not
built, or wolds to that effect. The
Congo river Is navigable for stcamersof
large tonnage from the seacoast to Ma
tadi, a distance of over eighty miles,
but from this point to Stanley Pool,
711 miles up the river, navigation is Im
practicable, owing to the cat a raits.
The railway begins at Matadi. and up
to the present time about twenty-live
miles have been constructed, at the
enormous cost of $l t"i.aiiil a mile, due to
the unusunriliflloully of the work.
Prom Kenge, the present terminus of
the completed road, the construction
will probably be much lighter, and the
total expenditure Is estimated to be
$ri,iiii,00ii. rpmi completion to Stanley
I'ool it Is proposed to divide the line In
to live sections, each subdivided Into
"posts" of about twelve and one-half
miles In length. Kach subdivision has'
a halting place, provided with sidings
for trains, and with water tanks. Two
trains a week eiich will be run, accord
ing to the proposed schedule, but the
roiol is laid out to uecommodate n ser
vice of eight trains a day each way.
The rolling stock Is peculiar in appear
ance, which is very squatty, the cars
being mounted low down near the rails,
and provided with a strong box below
the Hour, which can be Illicit with rocks
when a tornado approaches to prevent
the whole atfalr being blown off the
tracks. At present tin trade carried
to the coast Is almost entirely In Ivory,
of whhdi the annual product Is valued
at $7'jr,0iHl, but the opening of the rail
way Is expected to develop the lubber
trade, und lead to the opening of cop
per mines of exceptional richness.

MAJORITIES COMPARED.
t.n.st l ull's Vote In .Many instances broke
the He cold.
From the New York Hun.
A populur majority of over one mil
lion votes for the Repudlicnns In about
half the states of the union at the rec
ent election seems abnormally great
when compnred with the past achieve
ments of the Republican party In thu
line of majorities, und it seems to Home
of them to break the record In this re
gard. In point of fact, however, the
Increase In voting strength of vnrlous
American constituencies has been ro
great of recent years that an actual
majority of MUIOO Is, as regarded from
the point of view of percentage, less in
mnty cuses than a majority of 10,000
twenty years ugn.
In the state election of ISCII the Re
publicans made, as they did this year,
what was practically a clean sweep.
They carried Ohio by a majority of
OI,onn, against a Republican majority
of 147,no last month. Hut In 18U.1 tho
total vote of the state was 4S0,0(ifl,
whereas In 18M It wns 700,000. The Re
pudllcans carried Massuchucetts in the
presidential election of 18G4 by a ma
jority of 78,000. This year the llepubll
can lead was CG.00O on a total vote
twice as large as then. In the state
election of 1801 New York was carried
by the Republicans by 107,000 majority.
This year the Republican majority was
inti.OUO, the total vote or the stule hav
ing incrensed in the meunwhile from
4ti"i.uu0 to l,'J7fi.0U0.
In one respect ut least the recent elec
tion was entirely unprecedented. The
Republicans carried Pennsylvania by a
majority of 241, out). They never beforu
did so well there or In any other state.
These liguieti broke all past records,
and overtopped, too, even the Demo
cratic ligurcH In Texas, the high-water
mark Democratic majority in the Lone
Star state having been 181,000 In I8'I0.
