GUARDING THE SULTAN.

Extraordinary Precautions to Prevent Hlm
From Being Attacked. .

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 7,—The streets of
this city are still patrolled by troops and
police, and the latter continue making
arrests. There have been no fresh dis-
turbances, however, although there is
much excitement in many quarters in
view of the persistent rumor circulated to
the effect that the Armenians are deter-
mined to make further demonstrations
with the view of calling attention to their
grievances.

' ' The representatives of the powers have
been making careful inquiries into the
origin of the rioting as well as into the
fighting and arrests which followed, and
they will make full reports on the sub-
ject to their respective governments.

It was noticed during the ceremony of
the Sclamlik that the sultan’s bodyguard
had been increased in number, and that
extraordinary precautions were taken by
the military and police authorities to pro-
tect him from possible attack. All the
Armenian servants employed at the Yildiz
Kiosk have been dismissed as a matter of
precaution, as it is well known that they
”were in the main in sympathy with the
rioters. ‘ ‘ ,

THE VEILED V‘JARBLER.

A Street Singer That. Puzzled the French
Capital For Three Months.~

OnCe, and once only, was it given to

Paris to be puzzled by a street singer.
The apparition only lasted three months,
but while it lasted it was most perplex-
ing to us. One evening all the loungers

'on the b0ulevards, who were sipping

their beer, or “strangling a parrot,” as
the French phrase hath it to describe

the process of imbibing a dose of that -

subtle poison, absinth‘, were mildly
bored by observing the approach of three
street musicians. One man trundled a
piano, 3. second carried a violin and a
third, a tall, slight woman 'in deep
mourning, her crape veil sweeping over

her face, took up her station between

them. They paused and. prepared for
action, whereupon many people, know-
ing the vileness and discord of street
music, made ready to leave, when, to
the utter amazement of all, to the ac-
companiment of two fairly good instru4
ments, arose in the night air an exqui-
sitely modulated and very powerful fe-
male voice, m’nging, with a heartbreak
in every note, the wild wail of Traviata
over her approaching death, “Gran Dio,
morir si giovane. ”

Perhaps the voice gained by the suf-
prise of the public, perhaps it was aided
by the stillness of the sultry air,.but
certainly it sounded most divine. Thun-
ders of applause and a rain of coin, bot-h
gold and silver, rewarded the trio’s ef-
forts, but they never gave but two songs
per evening and then disappeared. The
adventurous men who followed the sup-
ple grace of the woman’s tall figure re-
turned discomfited, scared away by the
truculeut aspect of her two companions.

During that whole summer the
strange band would reappear every
night, and every night would reap a
harvest, but when the summer departed
they, too, vanished and never again re-
appeared. The Veiled Songstress, as she
was called, came from the darkness and
vanished into the night, and who she

was or where she vanished is a mys-_

tery. Of course the police knew, but the
archives of the prefecture are sacred
from the gaze of the profane, and as
that is the case, and as Paris forgets as
speedily as she adores wildly, we had
the arithmetical puzzle, Inaudi, the
lightning calculator, to distract our at-
tention that autumn in front of the cafe,
so the Veiled Songstress sank out of
sight, and the waves of oblivion have
closed over her new and forever. '—-Paris

GREENLAND’S SUMMER.

Professor Ecilprin Corrects Some Popular
Blisconceptions About It.

As with many of the foreign countries,
there is awrong impression existing in
the minds even of well bred persons
with reference to the nature of the pen-
insula of Greenland. It is supposed to be
a cheerless waste of ice and snow, and
indeed a land of desolation On first ac-
quaintance the country does not seem
calculated to inspire enthusiasm, but
this feeling soon wears away and the
returned traveler from Greenland is
smitten with “the arctic fever,” the
principal symptom of which is a. long-
ing to return to these northern shores.
Professor-Angelo Hcilprin, in his inter-
esting account of the Peary relief expe-
dition conducted by him, thus speaks of
Greenland:

“Once the foot has been set upon the
mirrored rocks the charms of this garden
spot one by one unfold themselves. The
little patches of green are aglow with

. bright flowers, rich in the colors which

abormteous nature has provided. The
botanical eye readily distinguished
among these mountain pink, the dwarf
rhododendron, several pieces of heath,
the crowfoot, chickwecd and poppy,
with their varying tints of red, white
and yellow. Gay butterflies flit through
the warm sunshine, casting their shud-
ows over ‘forests’ of diminutive birch
and willow. . -
“Here and there :1. stray bee bums in
search of sweets among the pollen
grains, while, from afar, woven through
the music of gurgling rills and brooks,
come the melodious strains of thousands
of mosquitoes, who ever cheerfully lend
their aid to give voice to the landscape.

. Above this peaceful scene tower the dark

red cliffs of basalt, which from a height
of 2,000 feet look down on a sea of
Mediterranean loveliness, blue as the
waters of Villafrau‘ca and calm as the
surface of an interior lake. Over its
bosom float hundreds of icebergs, the
output of the great J ncobshavn glacier,
50 miles to the cast-ward, scattered like
flocks of white sheep in pasture.

“Such was the summer picture of the
region about Disco as it was found by
the writer in two successive seasons.
There was little of that Greenland look
about it which we habitually associate
with the region, nothing of those terrors
which to the average mind reflect the
qualities of the arctic world.”

 

 

 

Love’s Prodigality.

A Michigan avenue youth was dilat-
ing to a friend upon the charms of his
adored one. His friend was disposed to
’distrust somewhat the accuracy of the
young man‘s vision.

“She is beautiful,

“As a star l”

“And rich?”

“Bali! I know not nor care. ”

“True, that is a secondary considera-
tion. But is she very wise?” .

“Wiser than Solomon l“

“Excellent. I suppose she is also of
fine family?” ' .

“Family, "my boy? Family? Why,
that girl has a family tree that would
shade Lincoln park l"—Chicago Times-
Herald. 5,

you say?’ ’

 

True. Courage.

True courage is cool and calm. The
bravest of men lumeihc least of a brutal,
bullying insolencc, and in the very time

ofdangcr arefou‘nd the most serene, .

pleasant and free. Rage, we know, can
make a coward forget himself and fight.
But what is done in fury and anger can
never be placed to the account of com-.-
ege.——Lord_ Shaftesbury.

anuvou THE TIME? 3

THE ODDS ARE'TWENTY TO ONE
,~ THAT YOU HAVE NOT.

Some» of the :Reasons Why Most Time-
pieces Are Always More or Less Out of
the War—How Correct Time Is Receiv-

. ed’Daily From Washington.

Ninetyefiine men out of a hundred
keep incarect time. Ninety-nine men
out of a hundred are just in the act of

regulating their watches in front of a ~

window that has a chronometer in it.

"if you ask a man the time, and his

watch is wrong,“ he is invariably going
to the watchmaker that very day to
have it put, in order.
idea of keeping the correct time. All
believe that they have it in their pock-
ets, and none ever gets it except at the
moment of setting his watch.

If you have a. friend in the railroad
business and stop him in the street with
a friendly “Hello, old fellow, what’s
the time? You always have it correct,"
he will haul out his timepiece with an
important air and give the hour in a
voice that shows he knows what time it
is and that he is never wrong. A
square or two farther on you chance to
meet another-friend in the same line of
business. You ask him the time, receive
an answer, smile to yourself and pass
on. There was ten minutes’ difference
between them. Every time the state-
house bell strikes a hundred men pull
out their watches with a confident air
of being correct and put them back
with an expression of extreme surprise.
We all live, flourish and die in time,
but no one keeps the correct immediate
record of the moments that beat out
slowly and surely the limit of longevity.

An experienced jeweler and watch-
maker, when asked the reason why so
few people kept good time, said that
nine-tenths of the causes of bad running
watches was due to carelessness and
irregularity in Winding. A 1Watch
should be wound at the same time
every day, and it ought to be regulated
on one day every week at the noon
hour, when both hands come together.
The finest watches cannot be made per-
fect, and the best way to detect any
diflerence between the two hands is to
reset them at 12 o’clock, and if they
are not exactly together make them so
by holding the longer and winding the
hour hand up to it.

An expensive jeweled watch ranging
from $500 to $1,000 is very seldom in
good running order simply because the
owner is afraid to let a .jeweler tamper
with it and does not dare touch it him-I
self.

In a large city correct time, absolutely
correct time, is a matter between some
dozen or two of men who follow almost
every stroke of the pendulum and cor-
rect their chronometers with as much
daily regularity as Ca tain Cuttlc did his
famous timepiece. omen are said to

_be the most careless in the attention to

watches. A lady has a watch presented to
her by a gentleman friend and volun-
tarily promises to keep it in the very
best running order. The gentleman
friend has his misgivings on that score.
but he gets the jeweler to put it in good
shape a couple of weeks ahead and there-
upon°hands it over to the lady. Now,
that watch has been running like a chr0-
nometer until the fair owner gets hold
of it. The first thing she does is to no-
tice the time in a store window, and as
her watch does not agree with it she sets
it accordingly, putting the regulator
away over to one side. That night she
forgets to wind it up, the next morning
she winds it up only half way for fear
of breaking the main spring and sets it
by another clock in the afternoon. Then
it runs down inside of eight hours, and
she thinks it is running wild—as it very
likely is, since she has put the regulate"
ing lever back and forth no less than six
times in the course of a week. After
this she wonders why the watch is al-
ways wrong and blames the jeweler.

Correct time comes into Philadelphia
every day‘at noon by telegraph 'from the
United States time observatory at Wash~
ington, where the “drop ball” makes
an electric contact that sends the signal
all over the country. The first clock in
the city communicating with the observ-
atory wire is at the Maritime Exchange.
At 56 minutes after 11 the hands of the
clock automatically click into place by
the action of the magnet and the little
train of wheels attached to it. Thus the
Washington time ball becomes at once
the authority for all clocks and an in-
fallible adjuster. The statehouse clock
is wound and regulated weekly by an
expert chronometer maker, who sets his
own watch by‘Washington communicat-
ed time and carries it immediately to
Independence hall. Many large manu-
facturers and business places where it
is necessary on account of thenumber of
men employed to have strictly conscien-
tious time employ, a man to wind, keep
in order and regulate their clocks the
year round. Clocks kept closely to the
mark in this way are very seldom in
need of extensive repairs, and like intel-
ligently" regulated watches have less
tendency to go wrong.

The Wa‘shington observatory clock .

runs for years together and. has never
varied more than six seconds for any
one year.

It is kept true by continual quadrant
observations on the altitude of the sun
at its meridian. As the earth’s revolu-
tions become slower only by the fraction
of a Second in a thousand years it may

be said that we are unable to take ad?

vantage of the natural means afforded
for absolute time regulation in spite
of the ~care that has been exercised in
the making of timepieces. For 26,000
years, since the first recorded mention

. of any instrument to measure time, in
‘Isaiah xxxviii, 8, men have been at

work constructing applianceh of. all de-
scriptions, all of them more or less
faulty, to tell them When to eat, sleep
and get up again. Is there no one to
invent a fin de siecle watch that shall be
able to keep up with ‘ the earth inpoint
of exactitudci—Philadelphia' Times.
