education costs money, putilotlsm costs

"In rations where wnr Is too long delayed

Said PiihIiu, tlio now Turkish minister for

Rcntuttvvt of the powers a communlciillou
from tho Turkish government repeating
the ntiranco that n plan for reform In

It has not thought, however, that this will

'litem have been no further exros,.s,
however, although a feeling of great ells

piomptly notllli'd the inilltaiy iiulliorltli s
and a sitting force of troops was sent to
the spot, The soldiers linnn dlntely blocked

Inhabitants of that quarter und they lied
from their homes hi nil dlrn'tious.
The Kurds then entered tln workshops
among the iiia)s and exp, lie fiom them

it Is claimed tho bodies uf four Armenians

Thero Is one feature of the isillee work

Tlini-e who know the way of Turkish of

which the objection was founded was th it

eiuoted 111 tho pist In the rate sh. . t and
theie was no leason why that practiio

The outcome of the wholo business will bo

Shortly before u o'clock tho engineer

After being knocked down. Miller and

At 9 o'clock Moss Lally and Murphy wen,
