the hope thnt so-no other mean of esenpe

BLOTTED OUT."
Forty-Eight Armenian Villages Reported
Entirely Destroyed.
Further Insormatlon relative to the massa
cre of the Armenians near Bltlis, Turkey, has
been received by Secretary duleslan, of the
United Friends, ot Armenia. One letter dnt
ed Bltlis, September 26. IBM, gives the Infor
mation that news has been received from the
region back of Moosh that forty-eight villages
are said to have been wholly blotted out.
Another letter dated Bltlis, October 8, 1894.
states that the day previous a letter from
Moosh bad been received which told of the
outbreak ot a virulent form of c-bolera, which
was killing from twenty-tire to thirty persons
daily. It Is caused, It Is said. by the stench ol
carnage which has taken place not far back
In the mountains. The number of massacred
will reach between 8.000 and 10,000. The
government tried to get the people here to
sign a petition to the sovereign, expressing
satisfaction with his rjle, and disclaiming
sympathy with the Armenians who have
'stirred matters up." The people have re
fused to sign the address.
Another letter dated Constantinople, Octo
ber, 81, 1HV4. states that from information re
ceived from Bltlis, twenty-seven villages
have been annihilated In Saaauin, and 8,003
men, women and children hnve been massa
cred by the troops and Kurds. The massacre
occurred in the early part ol September. The
massacre was the result of au affray between
some Kurds and Armenian villagers, from
whom the Kurds bad stolen their Hocks. The
sultan ordered infautry and cavalry to
the scene to put dowu tbe Armenian rebel
lion. Shot his own Son.

A Carious Spot.
On Whito Oak Mountain, which Is
one of a range that extends for several
miles sonthweBt of Atininton, Ala., is
one of nature's most wonderful freaks.
It is a tremendous hole or bowl known
to the few who hnve been aware of iff
existence as "The Lime Sink."
The "sink" tnkes the place of the
peak of the mountain antl is almost
perfectly ronnd. Its diameter at the
top is estimated at a quarter of a mile
and its bottom which is level, com
prises an area of abont three acres.
The walls average a height of from
eight hundred to a thousand feet and
are very precipitous, art ascent being
possible only at certain places. The
bottom is covered with large trees and
heavy nndcrgTowth, as aro also the
sides where they rtre not too rocky and
steep. Vines anA wild flowers grow
on the bottom aad sides in the great
est profusion and the spot is a very
picturesque one.
From all appearances the "sink" has
been there for a century. It is situ
ated about eight miles from Anniston,
bnt being in a wild and unfrequented
portion of the mountains few people
knew that it ras in existence. This
peculiar hole furnished the basis for
considerable excitement a few days
since. Fire broke out on the moun
tains near it, making a great smoke
and burning away stumps which sup
ported several large rocks. These foil
and rollcf with a mighty rumbling
thnt wa heard plainly in Anniston
and Oxford, whereupon some practi
cal jokers with vivid imaginations
told of this mysterious bnsin, and
started reports that it wns the crater
of a sleeping volcano which was slink
inaoff its lethargy and preparing to
get in action. There was a great deal
of talk about it. Some started out to
investigate but found it was too far
and came back, while others said they
were as near as they wanted to be.
Many people felt very much relieved
when they found that it was all a
hoax. Atlanta Constitution.
A Great .Milkman.
Fourteen years ago Herr Bolle, a
poor German peasant, came to Berlin
with two cows and begnn selling pure
milk. He met with success at once,
and to-day his establishment is the
largest in Berlin and one of the
largest and bent in the world. His
carts are greeted familiarly by the
people, "Here comes Bolle." One
thousand men and sixty women are
employed by him. In place of two
wagons there are now 200, and ISO
horses
Tbe milk of 1500 cows is used from
60,000 to 70,000 liters being delivered
daily. In his buildings and grounds
the moot immaculate cleanliness pre
vails. In one department the milk is
sterilized, in another the pure sugar
is extracted, to be used for babies'
food. Bo great is the care, that a
baby who begins with either morning,
noon, or evening milk, receives the
same always every one of the in
numerable customers receiving indi
vidual care.
The milk ia ponred into compart
ments of the spotless carts, which are
then loaked, and the milk drawn off
through faucets, to prevent the possi
bility of adulteration by any dishonest
carrier.
The scrupulous care extends even to
the homes ot the employes, for whom
nurses ape provided in illness, while
schools, halls, fresh-air funds and so
on, are organized and sustained by
the wise forethought and benevolenoe
of Herr Bolle. The very clothes worn
by employes are washed in a model
laundry on the grounds.
Herr Bolle is now more than eighty
years old, a very short, white-haired
man. His whole success has been
owing to the same honesty and dear
headednasa whioh led him, poor
peasant, to take his two cows to the
great capital of Germany and sell
"pure milk" in defiance ot established
custom. The Chantauquan.
The Shark Fighters.
"A gentleman was telling a pirty of
ns about the way visitors are enter
tained down at Nassau, Bahama," said
A. H. Lewis, the well known corre
spondent, at Willard's. "They have
a species of sport down there that
makes bull fighting as insipid as
noodle soup. It is nothing less than
events between sharks. The har
bor of Nassau abounds in sharks of the
man eating variety, ranging in length
from four to ten feet, and they are al
ways ready for a scrap on a bint of
provocation. There are always fellows
loafing around the quays wbo are will
ing to give strangers the delectable
pleasure of watching a shark fight.
The way they do it is interesting.
When tbeir services are engaged they
procure a live pig and take it out in
the harbor and tie it to tbo top of one
of the buoys. A lot of white paper or
chips of wood are then thrown into
the water to attract the sharks, and
the boat, whioh is always one of tbe
harbor tugs, steams off a little way to
give the strangers aboard a chanoe to
see what follows. The sharks come
from all directions, and prooeed to
leap up for the pig. Their unsuccess
ful attempts to get tne interesting
porker set them wild and they go to
lighting each other. Sometimes as
maay aa 800 of the voraoious fish are
engaged in a battle royal and numbers

ABSOLUTELY PUKE
What a Frenchman Believes.
The Fienchmen's belief in theit
super. orlty to the rest of the wo. Id
In every branch of human activity
almost amounts to a dogma. With
the average Frenchman It is an arti
cle of faith that If Franca were
blotted out, not merely the navetyol
oat on, but civilization itself, would
suffer eclipse. Every art and every
science Is supposed to take its foun
talnhrad In France.
Countless Frenchmen, for example,
and M. Thiers among the number,
have believed that the discovery of
the law of gravitation Is due nut to
Kewton, but to Pascal, and a French
author of a treatise on the history of
chemical theory begins It by do .'lur
ing that chemistry Is a French
science and was founded by Lavoisier
of Immortal memory. Even M.
Caslmlr-rYrier, In his message to the
Chambers, could nutubstalti from de
claring that France was "the center
of Intellectual light." It would-be
a harmless trait of character If It
was confined to tho pursuits of pence
and did nut extend to an Insatiable
thirst for military glory.
M. Gulzot, who knew his country
men well, once said that there was
no folly for which they were not
ready, prov ded only it was a mili
tary folly, and that It was almost im
possible for a French statesman to
pursue a policy of peace and not to
be accused of unpatriotic motives.

Hoiiiething Missing.
The other night a voung couple,
newlo married and evidently Irejb
from the country, put up at one of tbe
leading hotels, and after being as
signed to ii room, went up stairs. A
few minutes later the young man
came down stairs, and, approaching
the clerk, said:
"That room Is very nice, and all
that, but there is something missing
that should he there."
"What is it?" asked the clerk, sur
prised. "Well," answered the young man,
leaning over the desk and whisper
ing, "to tell tbe truth, there Is no
comb and brush there."
It was as much as tbe cierk could
do to keep a straight face. "You
haven't travelled much?" he Injured.
"No," answered tbe man; "this Is
the first hotel I've ever been In."
"Then," said the clerk, "the comb
and brush are In tbe washroom on
this floor for public use, but we do
not supply tooth-brushea"

When the great Napoleon was urged
to conquer China, he replied:
"Hetter let China alone. The Chi
nese do no harm at present If we
conquer them we shall teach them
the art of war. They may then
raise and equip armies, buy or build
navies, endanger France, and per
haps all Europe."
