CHAPTER XII. ! cleat circumstance to enatire belief,’ Continued. Tbe stirring events which occurred 'lust previous to my entry Into Com stnntinoplc were eclipsed by the mo mentous changes In the Turkish Gov ernment which took place la the mm. me:' and autumn of 1023. Sultnh Mu*- tnpha having by the absurdity of bis acts convinced everybody of bll Insnn My, he was again deposed, and a-yeung hoy, scarce twelve years old, set to his place as Amurath IV. 1 saw the youth, fill Atourath for tho first time on the day his high dignity was conferred upon him, and thought he Was an ex (optionally handsome boy. Certainly I perceived nothing to his clOhr-cut features, bis aquiline nose, his toll, lustrogo, dark eyes, which denoted to , nny flegreo the fierce, bloody and re- uK.raelen tyrant be afterward be- v a me. Being too young to rale, though uot to reign, all power reposed In- Mshpelkor, mother of the Snltsn. Mahpelker wss a clever woman, sin cerely desirous, 1 believe, of the bap- plnoas of her ton, and of tbe stability and prosperity of the State, And to to cure theae objects she scrupled not to seel; the advice of Sir Thomaa Roc— conduct which gave mortal offense to tho Grand Vlzter and other high offi cers of State, and tended not to the Hocnrtty of tbe Engllebmnh thus hon ored, Tbe difficulties with wblcb the Sultana-mother had to contend were numerone and great, for the lunatic Mnstapba and a host of parasitical pashas who surrounded him had de pleted the treaiury and suffered the defences of tho country to fall Into de bar. Sir Thomaa Roe haring recommend, cd mo for various public employments hit recommendations were adopted. I undertook the tasks, and acquitted my self with ao much satisfaction to the court that other commission! were given to me without nny suggestion by my friend, my success being due not to any exceptional ability to me, but simply to honesty—a quality rare ly found to a Turkish official, nor ex pected In more than a minor degree. Early In 1025 the health of Sir Thomas' Roc was such that It deter mined him to return home, and ar rangements were made for Sir Tbomns Philips to. represent England at the Porto. In three years I had grown . accustomed to life to Turkey, which waa not at all distasteful to me. Dur ing tha minority of Amurath. IV. my services wero frequently requisitioned by Mshpelkor and her advisers In drafting dispatches to foreign nations, my services being rewarded with mag nificent presents. I visited the Serag lio when I would, and on two occasions was examined by the assembled Ule ma ns to tho respective military strength of the notions of Europe. The ten choete of Venetian sequins re mained imbreqehod, and My English money was not decreased by one pen ny. I had purchased numerous slaves, yet notwithstanding nil my expense I waxed richer and richer, anil my per sonal Inauence Increased dolly. Such being my condition In 1683, It will be small wonder that I was disinclined to return to England with Sir Thomas Roc, more especially ns at that very time the Grand Vlslcr, In the name of Mahpelker and tho Ulema, offered mo tho distinguished position of Govern or of the Vilayet of Tccblzond—which, kb all men know, Is an Important prov ince and port on tho Itlaek Sea coast— stipulating only that I should embrace tho Mussulman faith. I was but twenty-five years old, and tho prospect of being king In everything hut name of a large and beautiful province was too llattcrlng to resist, nud I accepted tho position with Its accompanying , condition, much to the disgust of Sir Thomas Roe, whose friendship for me declined from that hour. A few days later my noble friend soiled for Eng- lend, and the last words I heard him apeak iaformed me that he had hoped lor better things of me than had ap peared. At this distance of time It Is easy to perceive In whom lay the fault which wrought this estrangement, and this incident Is one of many which make a retrospect of my life very mel ancholy to me. In delivering to me the warrant for my office the Graud Vtsler, a crafty old Turk, with a loug white heard and a magnificent hut deceptive eye. compli mented mo ou my honesty and truth fulness. to which qualities, he said. I owed my appointment, Inasmuch ns the Sultana-mother had been very fa vorably Impressed therewith, though, for his part, ho thought these were virtues which might be can-led too far. Honesty, he further observed, was In Itself a commendable thing, and sometimes worked well (as In my own case, where It had gained for me this valuable appointment), yet It might not be lost sight of that the tri bute frcfii Treblaond must at least be | maintained If not Increased, and that ' v the good will of himself and some of Ills brother officers was only to he re- r - . Valued by gifts. With regard to truth he cnn’.d not speak so favorably—that .. It was frequently Inexpedient to era ploy It was the dally experience of all rn but - carefulness on occasions —• Its use wat'dlipensed with waa 'Lie with tuffl. said this consummate deceiver, “yet with not ao mneb circumstance that tbe forgettal thereof shall embarrass thee ou another occasion, .fit this lies the whole art tM lying."

The people had been ber ried and plundered by an unbroken succession of incompetent despots, and no man's Ufa or property was Se cure. Before I set foot lh TrebUbohd, I. bad resOlved to use the unlimited Powers entrusted 'to me to reforming any abuses wblcb I might find pre vailing there. Having taken up my abode to an ancient castle which faced the sea and stood jnst within the Icily walls, I addressed the chief men of the city Who had gathered to receive me, and occasioned them much consterna tion by announcing my Intention of liv ing as simply and frugally as pocclble, of administering Impartial justice be tween man and mad Irrespective of rank,ofllCc, or wealth, and of ay will ingness to hear personally all cases In wblcb anltora for Justice could ahow reasonable cause for appeal against tbe judgment of the cadla. “Tbe au thority,” I Bold, “delegated to me by the Commander of the Faithful, to Inflict death on any Inhabitant of this province who shall Incur my displeas ure, I will never exercise except to punish the evil doer whoso deeds In 'the judgment of men shall merit that penalty. The annual tribute of Trebl- zond fixed by tbe Snltan'a ndvlimo la a heavy one—heavier, I fear, thiHlyou can ply without hardship. Neverthe less, It must be paid, punctually and loyalty, of tbe people, my status that of a dependent prince, my wealtlt greater than that of any other pash* to tho otnplf-A Afld tbtls ciirdmatahctld did 1 iivi bit. fii 1810 the Sultan died it a fever; accelerated bjr terror at an eclipce of the sup. and waa succeeded by hie brother Ibrahim, ' A man delay and doubt, confusing sfi things, whole milder temper, though appre ciated by tbe people with whom be waa In Immediate touch, soon effaced the good effects of Amaratb's Iron dis cipline. Ibrahim reigned but eight years, and the power and wealth of Turkey dwindled so marvellously’ un der his rule that to save the empire from disintegration the Mufti agreed upon an edict to extinguish this feeble minded voluptary; and he was accord ingly bowstrung, and bis son, the pres ent Suited Mahomet IV:, then n child of seven, set In his place. The regicide of 1648 failed entirely of its object, and the people of Turkey were plunged Into even greater misery by the deadly rivalry for supreme to fiuence which ensped between the Sultanas Mahpelker and Tarkhan, grandmother and mother of the Infant Sultan Mahomet. The feud was main- touted With tba utmost bltterncse. and each bf the principals attracted to herself a faction of pashas. The Turk lsh treasury, always tbe prey of Court officials, was soon emptied by the host Of thieves who saw In this division an opportunity to enrich themselves; and poverty and disaffection prevailed in the laud. Demands for money from my province became larger and more frequent, until at last they could uo longer be met In a vigorous re monstrance to Sultana Mahpelker and her advisers, I reviewed my conduct during tbe whole term of my pashalip. Insisting upon the Impossibility of In creasing tne tribute from Trcblzond, and requesting permission to resign my office. My report did not reach Constantinople until a few days after the death of Mahpelker, who hod been assassinated by a partisan of Tqrkhan. About the time this Intelligence was brought to me, my sou, a charming boy of fifteen, tbe delight and hope of my life, succumbed to malaria, nnd I de tormlncd to return to England. The corrupt cabal tbeu ruling at Constantinople would, I was sure, op pose my departure from Trcblzond, for n like reason and probably by similar fully; but I hope by'the laws I will «“« Battistas depar- enact and tbe Impartiality of my rule | ftom Conato^Unoph was opposed soon to lighten your burdens, to which >“ 1622. Of thle I had no doubt, and I end I will direct all the energy of my nature, confident of/-success If only your present protestations of loyalty be sincere.” The domestic establishment of my predecessor (who—marvellous Turkish pasha!—had died a natural death) was large, expensive, end most-' ly useless; so I deemed It a fitting sub ject for a first experiment with my re forming bond. I reduced It four- fifths, and reconstructed the remainder on a system which I had devised my self—abolished tbe office of purse- bearer, personally controlled the treas ury, nnd kept a sleepless eye ou ac counts rendered to me by my suborcl- nates. Verily the ways of reformers aro hard, and the oppcsltlon of those whom It Is sought to benedt Is too great to measure. At first ray rule was as unpopular with tho people ns that of any of my predecessors had been, which la saying much; but I lived it down, and In a few years converted hatred into tolerance, which yet later was changed to esteem when It was seeu and felt that I scrupulously ad hered to my original declaration. Trcblzond prospered enormously under my rule, aud in ten years bad become one of tbo wealthiest aud most peace ful vilayets In the empire, whereas before it had been one of the poorest and most turbulent. Mahpelker’s Grand Vlslcr, who, true to tbe tradi tions of his race nnu office, bad Uxed the tribute of Treblsond at ten times as much as had ever before been wrung from tbnt province, waa as tounded to sec trow me the sum be had demauded, and was at n stand to know how I bad accomplished sue i wonderful feat. Iu his dilemma the Vlslcr resorted to tho Court Astrologer from whom, after narattng the clr- eumstauccs, he aekcil for enlighten ment. After practicing divers fooler- lea with an netrolobe tho astrologer Informed the Vlslcr that tho Beardless I’asba of Trcblzond had discovered n gold mine, and announcement which so powerfully excited the cupidity of the Vizier that he undertook a Journey to Treblsond to see whether It was really so or not. With great difficulty I proved to this vile wretch that his credulity had been abused—that my success was due merely to my acting directly contrary to his advice; and he returned to Constantinople, disap pointed nud disconcerted. But during his absence from the capital a faction bad been formed against him, bit peculations had been exposed, and in a passage leading to the Seraglio lie was met by the Sevcu Mutes aud there un ceremoniously atrnugled. Tears came and passed away, and many were the changes In the govern- ineut of Turky. In 1632 Amurath, at that time a youth of twenty, as sumed full power aud ruled his em pire with it rigorous despotism which has never been exceeded tn the history of tho world. Fortunately for hta people, Amurath waa a man of great capacity. Though himself Inconceiv ably cruel, he waa politic enough not to permit overmuch tyranny in others. His Majesty professed great regard for me, and did mo the honor and Ida people the benefit to enact for hit Whole empire some salutary laws which I had enforced with advantage nATrablaond. My position was aasnrtd byVtha mandate cf the Multan aad the ordered my conduct accordingly, escap Ing lu a Muscovite merchant ship to Taganrog, when I traveled olowly, nnd with no Incident worth the telling, to London, arriving lu the latter city ou Chrtatmns eve to tbo year 1651, bringing with me a goodly store of Turkish money and Jewels, raid the t»u cheats of sequins Just as they were nine years before, and as they remain even to this day. December 3.—I am disposed to think there are very few men who can look back upon a lorg life with unmixed satisfaction, hut I hope the larger number of men are more happily cir cumstanced in this respect than tho old man who pens this record. Thcro remains but little for me to tell, and I am weary of writing about myself. At Iloldenhurst I found my brother Mathew alive and happy In the com panionship of hla wife and sona and daughters, os, thank God, bo is to day. And now twenty years have passed slnco I returned to England, all of which (except n brief and fruit less visit which I made to Venice to 1660 to discover the heirs of Signor Pietro Simona) have been passed to this quiet English village where I was born. Tho alchemical Investigations with which I have occupied my leisure hare failed to yield tbe results I had hoped for, and my only wish now Is that my life (which by many signs I know la now surely tcndfng to Its close) may be prolonged sufficiently to allow me to fouud a hospital for the poor of St. Edmund's Bury with the Venetian sequins which for safety have lalu so many years Immured In the Abbott's Cell beueath this house. Is it too much to pray for, that my Maker shnll regard the charitable act I contemplate as some alight atone ment for my bitterly repented renun ciation of the faith of my fathers and of tbe riotous excesses of my youth and middle age? Truly do I jiow well perceive that Lust Is a fiarno which rages fiercely and expires, while Love endures forever and Is clothed with Immortal youth. ROGER TRUEMAN. To bo continued. On* Three Time*. Another everyday direction—“One three times a day before meals.” By main strength and awkwarJnes we hr.ee learned «that this means one be* fore each meal. No man wants to take one pill three times. “Ten drops before going to bed.” How long be fore? An hour? A week? “Ten drops ;it bedtime” would be better. “One tablespoonful ou going to sleep” was a direction that could not literally be followed. “Three pills each day be fore meals” was a bard one. Did it mean three before each meal, or simply three pills a <jay, one before each meal*.* “One to two teaspoonfuls a dny before eating” was quite os much of a puzzle. We could multiply tbise riddles indefinitely. A Weakness of Lord Roberts. The best of men have their little weaknesses, says London Troth, and both in India and in South Africa Lord Roberts showed, according to all re ports, an amaziug weakness for offi cers more or less connected w ith “so ciety,” and his personal staff was en tirely composed ot them. and ® ® ® © /\elv&rtture. JAGUAR HARD HUNTING. N a large iron-barred cage in the Chntes Menagerie 1* the largest of the New World’s cats, a full-blood- _______ ed Jaguar, brought from the wilds of Mexico, and not less blood, thirsty than the African lions that snarl and growl in the next den. He is of a beautiful tawny brown, thick ly marked from t|ie tip of his nose to the end of hi# restless tail with heavy blotches of chocolate, shading Into black. There are over five feet of him, built like _ a leopard, blit of greater weight, while his forearms add paws are larger than those of any bf the cats save the lion. He paces up ami down Ids cage all night through. In the day he sleeps and no amount of shouting or prodding will wake him or get aught from him save an ugly snarl. ^ ’ “At home in the wilds of Central America,’ 1 according to n man who has mining connections in that region, the Jaguar frequents the banks of streams, especially where the water courses run through tho impenetrable fhrests. Few pooplc-^even natives—are to be met with ill such sections, and ns about the only way to get Into these vast woods is by canoe on the rivers nnd the opportunities for Jaguar shooting are of the best. Many are shot from launches on the larger rivers and the natives kill them with spenrs.* Jaguars arc very plentiful In these forests—much more so than mountain lion? are in Los Angeles County—and, on the eastern slope of the Andes ns well ns the Mexican Sierra are so numerous ns to he dangerous to hu man life ns well ns to the herds. They rarely leave the edges of the forests, but mukc long forays into the open. Hunts are organized and the big cats followed with hounds. Some of these chases result disastrously for dogs and men. Jaguars run further than our mountain lions (which are known ns pumas below out Southern border) nnd do not tree so easily. They are in no wise cowardly mid will fight a.man if he disputes their way in the forest. Dogs will not fight them nnd the pu mas are their especial enemies, which they always whip and often kill. Vnqueros of the pampas take this animal alive by entangling him iri the thongs of their hoias nnd frequently kill it alone and unaided with tAoir long knives. No white man has Jyled this method, nnd most of the jaguar hunting is done with rltles of the lat est make. No tales exaggerate the real ferocity of these ni.iimils, which frequently »:rry off Indian infants be fore their belplCRH mothers' eyes. Kero is a description of a-jaguar hunt some time ago along one of the streams that feed tho Gulf from the eastern slope of southern Mexico, as told tho writer: “Bright nnd early one December morning we left camp, six in thb party nml with eight dogs of various breeds. Ail carried rifles nnd knives, while tho two Indin ns wlio wero supposed to act ns guides carried heavy machetes with which to cut away the many creepers which obstruct all forest paths. We headed up tile hank of a small trlbu- tnry stream not far from the mines, nnd shortly after entering the belt of heavier timber the dogs put up n howl nnd led oft nt a pace we could not follow through the tsngie. Such of tho dogs ns could ho kept in with the horn, nnd a half hoar's trailing brought us wlttin sound of a terrific baying that made the forest ring, the whole noise seeming to come from a particularly dense tangle on the very bank of the stream. A huge tree had fallen across the water nnd its up rooted base formed a broad shield, be hind which the fracas was taking place. “Tumbling, clawing nnd sliding, wo got around this witli the rest of the dogs and there laced a scene of sav age beauty. Backed against a mat of creepers that ha* grown over the half rotten log, his every tooth visible nnd overy hair on end, stood the spotted cat. At n goodly distance from him the three free dogs kept up a restless baying to which the fresh voices of the dogs we then released lent new impe tus. The Jaguar was not nfraid. He probably would have killed the whole pack before he himself succumbed, but our dogs were far too wise for that, and our Indian guides fairly trembled with fear, so afraid of these 'devil cats’ are the children of the great forests. A well-directed shot pierced the creature’s eye and with a few Inst clutches nt the great tree trunk, he slid with a splash into the stream, whence he was rescued and his skin now adorns a mining com pany’s office.” This Jaguar measured five feet nine Inches from tip to tip. Larger ones have been killed in the same forest.— Los Angeles (Cal.) Times. HUNTING THE GRIZZLY. The grizzly bear is the only animal in America that is really dangerous. We all know that any animal will fight if cornered; a bull moose may be ugly aud charge; a black bear will fight for her cubs, or if wounded, but the grizzly, “O.’d Uncle Ephraim,” the mountain men call him, is always ug ly and ready fbr a fight. So well is this fact recognized that very seldom do nny of the old-timers take a chance unless everything is in their favor. Their immense size, coupled with their ugly disposition, makes them In deed very dangerous. There are many Oases on record of grizzlies weighing 1500 pounds. I have never seen one that weighed actually that much, but have Men MTerat that weighed over -4 1000 pounds, and hare seen sklne that were much larger than any I have killed! M do not doubt the statement that they grow to weigh 1600 pounds. Tbd fliflit common method* of kill ing grizzlies m to Wdtch a bait at night, or to trap them, Gltbef with a large steel trap or a long pert twin A falling door made of heavy tlmbe'fr •ib# trap Is tbe most successful, although hot considered very sports manlike. I know of two wfoeTO fl grizzly was shot through the kvHttj ttttfi yet lived long enough to run lw and, In one case, maul a man very bid* ly. These bears, although killed ear ly In September,*were in good fur, the large one (estimated to weigh 1200 pounds), particularly so, the fur be ing long, dean nnd very marked. Tbe smaller bear (estimated to weigh 800 pbUdd*) was very thin ami had good fur. Th« large bear was a veteran surely, ns on Skfnhlng him eight bul lets and several buckshot Were found, two of the bullets being roUfid, such as were used by tbe Indians tttnnf years ago in their old smoothbores.— J..G. kritfWIMm, in the Illustrated Sporting News. A MILITANT PARSON. When the settlements on the Forked Deer ltiver were new. arid western Tennessee was still Chickasaw coun try, nil attempts to start religious serv ices were for a long time broken up by n gang of young outlaws who drove the ministers a^vny. At last the Rev, Arthur Davis, a muscular Christian* nine to try his skill at conquering them. They had given him notice that no Methodist parson should ever preach on 1 lower Forked Deer. Mr. Davis went to the forbidden ground aud preached to a large audience. When the service was over he stepped od* into the grove which surrounded thtf log church, aud taking off his coat and collar, placed them on n stump. The outlaws had gathered on one side, the church people on the other. Turning to one of tho church people Mr. Davis gave him a message to his wife, and then facing the outlaws, de manded that they select their cham pion. You ftnid I should not preach,” he said, “hut I have preached. You say 1 will not preach again. Well, I say I shnll, unless you kill ine now. Come on, one nt a time, fair piny, and we’ll see who is right.” The outlaws looked nt him in amaze ment. Then the leader stepped for ward , holding out his hand. I’m with you, Mr. Davis,” he de clared. “Any man who has got your courage can be parson here as long ns lie likes. Boys, step up and shako haqds with the minister.” < Thenceforward tbe “fighting parson” held forth regularly In the Forked Deer country.—Youth’s Companion. A RACE FOR LIFE. John Eggert, a farmer, of Centre, Wis., Is one horse and one f.'iiee poor er than he was, bnt possesses Instead a deep, ragged hole in one of his fields. The horse was nn aged beast whose life was n burden to It, and which was useless to the farmer. Its name was IVter. It would not die and no one would buy it or take it ns n gift. Eggert decided to have it shot. Then Ills troubles began. Neighbor after neighbor declined to net os execution er. Eggert himself was willing, but his knowledge of firearms was small. He speut sleepless nights trying to evolve a scheme of getting rid of the horse. At Inst he perfected Ills plan and proceeded to put it Into execution. First he obtained a stick of dynnmite nnd tied It to the horse’s neck. Then he tit the fuse and ran. / The horse wus an affectionate beast which loved its master, nnd it Joined gladly in the game. Eggert, terrifed, doubled his pace. The horse whin nied with pleasure and quickened its steps. Eggert panted and wheezed, but ran the faster, fear lending strength to nls legs. And so it went on for one of those minutes which seem au eternity. 'At last Eggert reached n fence, scrambled over it, and lay panting on the other side, when a roar ns of a Japanese fleet in action broke the still- Eggert felt himself to see if he was all there, and then looked around. Tho horse, the fence and a good share of his farm wero gone.—New York Evening Sun. A HERO’S REWARD. A few days ago an old man named Samuel Wilbcrley was killed upon the railway by a passing train. His last days, it appeared, had been spent in Edmonton Workhouse. At the inquest it was revealed that Wilberley was nn ohl soldier. He enlisted whoa only eighteen in the famous Ninety-fifth Foot. He distinguished himself nt the battle of the Alma, when Sir De Lacey Evans mentioned him in division or der. In the repulse of the Russian sortie he shone, and again in the bloody grapple of Inkerman. lie vol unteered upon one occasion to carry ammunition to the Quarries under the deadly fire of that dny and was in the trenches throughout the whole of the siege. The Gazette itself published the services of Corporal Samuel Webb, the name under which Wilberley en listed, and added that the young hero had received from his Queen the Cri mean medal, and from the Emperor of the French the Cross of the Legion of Honor.

Sick kidneys cause backache, languor, blind headaches. dizziness, insomnia and urinary troubles. To cure yourself you must cure the kidneys. Profit by the experi ences of others who have been cured. Mrs. William W. Brown, professional nurse, of 16 Jane 8t., Paterson, N. J„ says: “I have not only seen ’ much suffering and many deaths from kidney trouble, but I have suffered myself. At one time I thought I could not Mve. My back ached, there were frequent headaches and dizzy spells, and the kidney secretions were disordered. Doan’s Kidney Pills helped me from the first, and soon re lieved me entirely of all the distressing and painful symptoms.” A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medlckie which cured Mrs. Brown will be mUled on application to any parti of the United States.
