The American Hoard has received a
despatch from Constantinople, frmn
uiie uf lu cx|ierieiic4‘il representatives
there, N|ieHking in enthusiastic term'i
of tlie way in which the New lurk ;
party Im hand ling the situation. I he
correspondent says:
tl Kcoiioiny is the watchword of the
hour. It is commonly rc|*irU'd that
out of ;w»l aides de camp, who were
(STsonal attendants u|hui the Sultan,
only i*l remain. Out of MOO cooks in
tils palace all but 17 have been dismiss
ed. His stud farm has been broken up
and the horses turned over to the army.
His private theatre,within the preclnts
of Ids palace, has been closed, and three
clowns, who received each one hundred
Turkish ipounds a month, have been
dismissed. Some 'J» mansions and pa
laces In and alniut Constantinople, and
various estates throughout the provin
ces, whose revenues went directly to
the Sultan, have been given up to the
slate. The league of I’nion ami Pro
gress, the most Influential unofficial
body In the empire, and representing
the |>arly In power, is sending agents—
civil, military and religious— through
out the provinces loenlighten the pub
lic mind on the situation and to call
for fullest co-operation.
The writer adds that iAmerican al
leges and schools In the empire are till
ed to overflowing. He slates that the
children of all classes and nationalities
and religions are coming without fear,
to such an extent that the cai*actUesof
these schools are wholly Inadequate to
receive all who apply, there being nel

Th« Peer Cannibal.
A man ouce went to the circus. Near
the nmlu entrance to the circus there
was a side show, and a vast and bril
liant oil I'alntlng portrayed in all Its
horrors a cannibal feast corpses cook
In* over fires, mule natives squatted
In a circle, holding to their mouths
grilled forearms, hands and such ITke
lie1'<■<'rlrs. A genuine cannibal, the
(sister said, was to be seen within.
l*ay ing a dime, the man entered. The
cannibal, very lightly clad, sat with
crossed legs on a divan, languidly toy
ing with a siiear. Ills teeth were filed.
The visitor was a man of markedly
•cltgious teuiperameut. and he gated
at the caunilmi with horror.
"Is this really a cauulbal?" be asked
the showman.
"You bet he la!" the showman an
swered. "Do you know how he was
raptured? That great living curiosity
was captured, sir. In the act of boiling
an aged Baptist minister over a slow
fire.”
"Then couTert hlm!“ the visitor cried.
“Oh. my frieud. why don't you con
vert him?”
The showman made a gesture of dis
gust.
“Convert him?” he said. “Do yon
think the public would pay a dime a

A Reference.
A firm of shady outside London bro

severity, said:
"There is uot sufficient evidence to

• So John II. has reformed, has he?
Humph, we ll see." They "saw" him
in procession. First he met one old
horn, then another, and it never dawn
si upon him that is was a conspiracy.
The first night that John H. reached
home after tic hud made that promise
to his wife it was very late, or, rather,
it was very early. In fact, it was early
morning. He took off ills lioots, man*
aped to hang his hat tip and walked
softly into the room where his wife
sluniliered. So far all was good. He
divested himself of his coat, and Just
as he was hanging it on the gas bracket
his wife woke up.
"Why. John.' she exclaimed, “what
on earth are you petting up so early
for?"
This was a poser, but John was
equal to the occasion.
"That’s all right.” he said. “You
know I've reformed. Mary, an' there's
lots of people I’ve got to see early in
the mornin’.’’
And lie deliberately put on his coat
and hoots, found his hat and went out
again, while Mrs. II. turned over, with
a fioudlsh chuckle, and went to sleep.

Tha Drawback.
Beardman was a writer of plays,
ultimately fairly well known in his
day For nearly twenty years he
struggled and fought his way along
without meeting with any very pro
nounced success. each play in turn
j proving more or less of a failure. At
last, however, he produced a play that
i really caught the public taste. He and
I the famous Sheridan hapjiened to lie
i present together on the o|tening night.
| All went well. Success followed sue
! cess, and applause greeted and ended
each scene. At the eud of the second
act Beardman'* elation got the better
>f Ills discretion, and. leaning over to
ward Sheridan as usual, too witty to
l>e merely sympathetic—he exclaimed:
“Sherklau. Sheridan, it's going to be
| a success, a complete success!"
"Ah. yes," murmured Sheridan,
with exquisite compassion lu his voice,
"too bad. too had!"
"Too bad!'” stammered bis friend,
completely taken off his guard. "Why.
too had that it should prove a success?"
"Because uow," retorted Sherklau.
