VAN,

Armenia, May

24.—From

the

Special Correspondent of the Associated Press.—The Sasun massacre, it would appear, was one of the most carefully planned outrages in history. The evidence of this is circumstantial only, but it is alleged to be none the less conclusive.

During the months of June, July and August, preceding the Sasun massacre, the Kurdish chiefs in the country surrounding the Sasun region, and particularly the districts in the southward and southwestward, were apparently unusually busy in gathering UD the scattered warriors of their tribes for an invasion of the Sasun region.

In July and August enormous quantities of petroleum were shipped from Erzeroum to Moush. This petroleum came originally from Russia to Erzeroum, and so great was the quantity brought over the mountain roads that it was a subject of remark to very many persons. For a time it looked as though jiotliing went over tne roads between Erzeroum and Moush but petroleum. ^Now it is a fact that Moush does not use a great quantity of petroleum herself, nor do her merchants sell much of it to the surrounding country. In the villages candles of sheep fat oil are used for lights.

What Moush wanted with those countless cans of petroleum was a mysfcery. But the mystery was a mystery no longer after the Sasun massacre, for that petroleum was used to burn the houses of the Sasun villages and to cremate the bodies of the wretched ^villagers who fell victims to the awful tmtcheiy. In burning the houses, the petroleum was thrown upon the woodwork in generous quantities and set on fire, with the result that everything that could burn went up in smoke.

In cremating the dead, the bodies •were, in many cases, placed between layers of wood and built up into a sort of funeral pile. The entire mass was then saturated with patroleum and set on fire. It is charged that living men were cremated in the same way. But this was a merciful way of putting the unfortunate creatures to death in comparison with tortures inflicted Upon many others.

Tlie massing of troops near the Saeun region, and particularly at Moush, was carried 011 for some time before the beginning of the massacre, in order that everything might be in readiness, according to the program said to have ibeen carefully made out at Constantinople.

Several weeks after the Sasun massacre, it is claimed, orders were sent from the palace at Constantinople for a massacre of the inhabitants of Modikan, a district lying to the south and southeast of Sasun, but when it was seen that an investigation of the massacre at .Sasun was inevitable, the order, it is said, was recalled, and Modikan was not molested, except in the ordinary course of the persecution general in all parts of Armenia.

In the city of Van at this moment there are 500 young men sworn to give themselves as a sacrifice to Turkish butchery in the hope that the attention of England may be more strongly called to the desperate situation of their people.

The Armenians can not accept any scheme of reform which does not have for its fundamental principles the absolute control of the European powers, Unless Europe controls the reforms there will be a massacre of 20,000 Christians in the city of Van in two months. The Armenians themselves will bring this about rather than be cast adrift by their fellow Christians of the west.

There is no language quite adequate to a description of the real condition of Armenia at present. Men are beaten, robbed and murdered, and women are ravished by Kurds and Turkish soldiers. Woe and want and despair and death stalk aboard in this beautiful land that -was once apart of the Garden of Eden. The inhabitants of Van are living on the brink of a massacre from day to day.

IS GROWING MORE CRITICAL.

Another better to the Associated Press Dated Twelve Days Later. fei^'v^'iVAN, Armenia., July 15.—By the transfer from Van to Constantinople of the advance guard of the Armenian Kf- revolutionary movement, captured in sfe the village of Tclnboukla, on May 19, :m the Turkish government has taken a decisive step toward quieting public sfcv excitement in the eastern part of the empire.

The governor of Van, Bahri Pasha, 5 lias, during the week, added several interesting facts to the alleged confession of Harry Williams, the leader of the captured band. According to the governor, Williams has confessed that the revolutionary party, which sent him to begin the revolution, has 3,000 rifles in

Trieste, Austria, which will be shipped to Armenia for the use of the patriots at the earliest opportunity.

An interesting incident of Williams' confession, as made public by Bahri, is the fact that he is not a British subject at all, but is a native of the Caucases region of Russia, and, strangely enough, of the very district in which Bahri him.jself was born.

Leaving out of consideration entirely the second revolutionary band across the Persian border, it is an undeniable fact that the Armenian situation was never at a more critical point.

Your correspondent, yesterday, met the representative of a fourth revolutionary party which has agents in Russia, England and America. Their head,^uarters seem to be in America, where a party newspaper is published and .revolutionary funds collected. This agent id a Russian-Armenian, and he Jioldsitrong views on the situation. The fourth revolutionary partv has no jpini in Armenia, nor does the agent fiaj that he has any arms hidden away.

PUT C'JT THOUT A PANIC.

Fir«•" I5«»ird the Frciich Line Steamship Norm-.imlie While at Sea.

New YoifK, July 15.—The French line .steamship Nonnandie, from Havre, which arrived at this port yesterday, had a fire on board during the passage. It was at 7 o'clock on the night of July 9. The passengers were all at dinner aim little was known until the next day of the danger through which they had passed.

Smoke was first seen issuing from the starboard alley about amidships. It was found to be in a compartment in the lower hold about midships, where were stored case goods, hides and skins. It is supposed to have resulted from spontaneous combustion among the oily hides.

The fire apparatus was at once brought into use, and 12 lines of hose poured hot water into the compartment. Volunteers were asked for to go to the seat of the fire, and learned the exact condition of affairs. The whole crew volunteered to a man. Ten were selected.

The water had nearly reached the ceiling when the 10 volunteers reached there. They reported the condition of affairs to Captain Deloncle, who ordered the water flow stopped. During this time few of the passengers knew what was occurring. The fire was out at noon

011

July 10.

Before the ship landed the passengers held a meeting and adopted resolutions commending the captain and crew tor their brave work.

Captain Deloncle is 48 years old. He has served 15 years as commander, but this was his first trip

011

the La Nor-

mandie. He has been 84 years at sea, and has filled every post from cabin boy to captain. The cargo will be jettonized and an estimate made of the damage as soon as possible. The amount of the damage is said to be slight.

DOUBLE TRAGEDY.

One Man Accidentally Shoots Another and Shortly Afterward Suicidcs. KANSAS CITY, July 15.—News of a double tragedy at Bean Lake, Platte county, this state, has just been received here. Theodore Kirkman was shot and killed by George Maecliel and later in the day Maechel committed suicide. Both men were from Kansas City. They were employed by a local ice company and lived in a shanty near the lake.

Maejhel's story was that before getting out of bed yesterday morning Kirkman took down a gun and they began tooling with it. Maechel finally wrested the weapon from his companion. Not knowing that it was loaded, he pointed the gun at Kirkman's head and pulled the trigger. Kirkman was almost instantly killed as he lay in bed. This is the story that Maechel told when he surrendered to the Platte county authorities. Late yesterday evening Maechel committed suicide, but in what manner is not known here.

A DEADLY TOBMDO.

A Windstorm Sweeps Cherry •Hill, New Jersey.

THREE PEOPLE WERE KILLED.

Others Injured and Twenty-Five Dwellings Wrecked—It Hits Wood haven, L. I. One Women Killed and Over Thirty

Houses Destroyed—Another Cyclone in North Dakota. CHERRY HILL, N. J., July 15.—A tornado swept over this place at 3:80 Saturday afternoon, and besides ridding 25 families of their homes killed three persons outright, namely, Conder Friedman, proprietor of the Cherry Hill hotel a Hungarian named Anton Fisher, in the employ of August Mund, and the 8-months-old son of William Ahren. Edgar Chinnock, while attempting to release his horse from a barn, was caught in the ruins and his head badly crushed.

The following are in the Hackensack hospital: Charles Cole of Paterson, broken leg, blown from a carriage while passing through Cherry Hill Mrs. A. M. Ahren, one ear torn off William Friedman, scalp wound Andrew Suttle and Anton Hoffman, in the employ of N C. Zabristkie, the former having an arm and leg broken, the latter several ribs.

The houses of John Demarest, John Jones, Peter Fishbaugh, Harry Randall, George Mildner, August Mund, John Zabristkie, William Roemer, Joseph Creiger, James H. Vauderbeck, N. C. Zabristkie, John N. Jenkins, rs. M. Lozier and several others were completely destroyed.

The depot of the New Jersey and New Yoric railroad was picked up and carried up the tracks nearly 200 feet, and then fell

011

the opposite side of the

track. Agent Val Wetlermg claims he went along with a part of the depot, and was found under a freightcar.

A large beam went sliding through the air and went through the side of the Reformed church, while the edifice was knocked two feet off its foundation.

Conder Friedman was in the act of closing the upstairs shutters when the wind blew him out of the window, and he landed on his head on the hay scales, death being instantaneous.

Mrs. Ahren's body was found in the ruins when her house and that of a neighbor was lifted into the air together and came down in a confused mass.

All the injured may recover, although Chinnock's condition is critical. Those who remained at the scene had their wounds dressed where they were found by the doctors who hurriedly drove in the village after the storm. During the early part of the night the owners of the wrecked dwelling sat about them guarding their, ruins, but later a patrol was formed which guarded the streets. Many of the homeless women and children were transferred to Woodridge, where they received shelter. Yesterday active means were taken to secure them relief and homes.

Hackensack and other towns have responded promptly to the call for aid made by the people of Cherry Hill. Committees have been organized in several of the towns. The most important is the one here. Prompt measures were taken and between the amount subscribed and that gathered in boxes at the village there is now enough money to keep the unfortunates in food for a few days.

AT PLAINFIELD.

Hailstones as Large as Hens' Eggs Do Immense Damage. NEW YORK, July 15.—Over the Watchung mountains a storm swept down on Plainfield, N. J., Saturday afternoon, which for suddenness, violence and destructive power has scarcely been equaled in the east. The streets of Plainfield were filled with hailstones, in many instances as large as hens' eggs. Greenhouses were wrecked and trees uprooted. Hillsdale, a near-by village, caught the edge of the storm and received a pelting of hailstones which caused damage to the extent of thousands of dollars.

The news of the wreck at Cherry Hill was soon brought to Hackensack, and hospital ambulances and undertakers' wagons were 111 demand. Hundreds of people visited the scene and did what they could for the injured. Thirty families are homeless without shelter. Governor Wertz has been asked to send tents for the homeless.

One Woman Killed on Long Island. WOODHAVEN, L. I,, July 15.—More than 30 houses were blown down here Saturday afternoon. One woman was killed and a number of persons injured.

CYCLONE IN NORTH DAKOTA.

Three People liadly Hurt and Considerable Property Destroyed. GRAFTON, N. D., July 15.—A cyclone at O'Donnelson, six miles northeast of here, was reported at 4:45 o'clock yesterday afternoon. It was about three rods wide. At the schoolhouse nearby people were at church and heard it coming. It first struck a large machinery shed, lifted it up, turned it completely around and dropped it five rods away in a grove. It was full of machinery, which was twisted out of shape.

Turning, it took the windmill of a barn and twisted the barn. It then struck the house five rods away. The house was a large square 2-story frame building on a brick foundation. It lifted this house in the air, whirled it around, and striking on a corner it went into a thousand pieces. There were five persons in the house. Mrs. Nelson was sitting on the porch with a baby in her arms. When in the air she dropped the baby and was carried 30 feet. Both were uninjured.

A 12-year-old girl named Peters was badly hurt. Her leg was broken and she was injured internally. She is not expected to live.

The hired man was carried- 800 feet and dropped in a grove, where for a time he remained unconscious. He is badly hurt, but will recover.

The servant girl Was badly hurt about the feet and back. Everything in the house was smashed into fragments.

Mr. Nelson and several children were in Grafton attending church. Three mil$s southeast, a farmer named Enudson had the roof taken off his house and there is undoubtedly more damage done.

THE DANGER PAST.

Rain Puts Out Out the Forest Fires In th« Pine Section of Michigan. GRAND RAPIDS, July 15.—Specials to The Democrat from points in northern Michigan show that a light rain fell along the Muskegon river and extended north to Cadillac. The rain nearly covered the pine section, and further damage from forest fires is not anticipated there. North of the Manistee river fires are reported at many points, but as they are in hard wood forests the damage will not be great.

The loss from fires in the great potatoe growing section is light as compared with that from drouth. At Petoskey several prayers for rain were offered yesterday and at 9 o'clock the sky was overcast and the faithful believed they were about to receive a favorable response to their supplications.

Burned Itself Out.

BAY CITY, Mich., July 15.—Although very little rain has fallen in this vicinity yet, the fires seem to have abated considerably since yesterday and further loss is not expected. The damage done to crops Emmet county during the past week is estimated at about $12,000. The loss on buildings has been considerably greater.

All trains were running today and no great delays have been caused by the tires. The long drouth has completely dried out the grass and everything is burned out. but if a heavy rain falls early this week little damage is anticipated.

New Fiies Sprung Up.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., July 15.— New forest fires have sprung up near Torch lake and Ann Cedar run. Though

110

valuable property is threat­

ened, the fires are scattering in many places. No serious loss is apprehended to timber unless a heavy wind should arise.

GUILTY ON ONE COUNT.

Some Looseness Revealed in County Aflairs at Celina, Ohio. CELINA, July 15.—Clyde V. Smith, the defaulting county surveyor, was yesterday found guilty of presenting false claims to the county auditor, and securing $552 illegally. This case was bitterly fought by the defense, and thereby much looseness in the management of the county affairs brought out, both in the office of the auditor and county commissioners. Seemingly there has been no books kept as to their doings.

Checks presented by parties to the commissioners were simply O K'd without investigation as to their merit, and an order drawn upon the treasurer for the amount. The trial was for presenting false claims, and was but one count of the four indictments found by the grand jury, two counts being nollied. In the first indictment the grand jury was out for 24 hours, and reported their verdict of guilty. On Sunday afternoon at 4:15 a motion for a new trial was presented by the defendant's counsel, and will be heard by Judge Mooney on Tuesday.

MILD DRINKS IN GOTHAM.

Soda and Mineral Waters Conld Be Procured at Only a Few Places. NEW YORK, July 15.—The resurrection of the Sunday law by Judge McAdams had the effect of only slightly checking the sale of soda and mineral waters by druggists and confectioners of the city yesterday. Possibly one such place in every 20 made no attempt to sell. One in every four sold only to regular customers, while all the rest sold to everyone who wanted to buy.

Patrolmen received instructions on leaving their station house to make no arrests in such cases, except on complaint of those who had purchased drinks, and wished to have the seller arrested. There was no disposition on the part of buyers to make complaints, and as policemen in citizens' clothes, who were on excise duty, were not instructed. to get cases against the soda water sellers, the latter were not interfered with.

Had Wreck on the Big Four. DELAWARE, O., July 15.—At 11:30 yesterday a bad wreck occurred at White Sulphur, on the Big Four railroad, resulting in wrecking 14 cars of whisky, feed, tobacco and candies, amounting to $75,000. Dick Hurley, a moulder oi Cincinnati, was instantly killed and ground to a jelly. The cause of the accident was the burning off of a journal, the car leaving the track after it had plowed the earth for a mile.

SCHOOL BUILDINGS.

BEAUTY OF ARCHITECTURE SELDOM CONSIDERED.

Effect of Environment on the Tontbfol Mind—Inculcate a Taste For the Beautiful—Object Lessons In Shade and Color.

Influence of Surroundings.

A writer in The Atlantic Monthly is of the opinion that the modern schoolhouse is altogether too plain and devoid of ornament. This is a serious defect, according to this authority, and he supports his statement as follows:

The boy may not feel that his surroundings are anything more to him than a part of the great educational machine that is forming him for future action if so the greater pity for a lost opportunity. He may, on the other hand, develop an admiration for the mechanical perfection of his surroundings, in which case he is likely to underestimate and think poorly of beauty which is unaccompanied by technical perfection.

Much of the carping criticism, the dissatisfaction with simple means, that is so characteristic of certain types of citizens can be traced to association with the complex surroundings of modern buildings. The effect of quiet beauty, of walls growing old gracefully with the soft colors that age enhances, of stretches of sward from which vines clamber and cling to projections and spread lovingly over broad surfaces, to gather in swaying masses from string courses and label moldings the inornate, affectionate character of diamond paned windows and of postern doorways, which seem to court companionship by the very necessity for close contact in passing through them—all are absent from the dry formality of the schoolhouse which we build.

Perfected methods of lighting, of providing fresh air and of withdrawing vitiated air, of heating and of plumbing, receive full meed of attention, the needs of association with beauty little or none. This is well enough so far as it goes, but is not productive of pleasant reminiscence to the pupil. He is taught little by his environment there are no sermons in the stones of his school there is no subtle influence teaching him by the best of examples, that of the object lesson, to appreciate light and shade and color, and to grow fond of them, so that he looks back upon them with affection and demands that they enter into his life in after years. It is the stimulation of this desire for good things that is so important and so abiding a quality in the education of a child. To have only the best about one means that nothing short of the best will satisfy. And this does not imply extravagant tastes or perpetual disappointment.

The best things are more a matter of choice than of cost, and they may be quite as frequent as the inferior products, if we only know how to discriminate between the two. To be educated to know good architecture foreshadows the elimination of bad architecture, and the education is all the better for having been imbibed while young. There are attempts being made to beautify the interiors of schoolrooms, by hanging photographs and prints of paintings, sculpture and architecture upon the walls, the walls themselves to be tinted in harmonious and quiet colors. Casts upon pedestals and bas-reliefs used as friezes are also suggested. These are all of value as object lessons they instruct and influence the pupil's taste, and awake an appreciation that would otherwise lie dormant. It is hardly probable, however, that the memory of these will cause strong affection for the places in which they are to be found, certainly not as strong affection as would be felt for the inclosed playground, and the columned porch, and the gabled walls of an English school. It is not sufficient to crown a wall with a pleasing cornice or to place windows in just intervals upon a plain facade in order to have that facade remembered with pleas-

He Sold His Goods.

There was a boy who was sent out by his father to sell some potatoes. Ho carried the bag around all day without a sale, and on reaching home at night threw it down with the surly exclamation "Nobody that I met asked me for potatoes. One fellow wanted to know what I had in the bag, and I told him it was none of his darned business.''

There was, in the same town, a colored gentleman who went about bawling at tlio top of his voice: "Fish! Fish! Fish! Froslifish!" "Shut up that racket!" said an angry dame at a window. "You heali me, missy?" 'Hear you! You can be heard a mile away." "Dat's what I'ze hollerin for. Fish! Fish! Fish! Fresh fish!''

The colored gentleman was an advertiser and sold his goods. —Hardware.

Towns That Have Vanished. Hindustan, once the capital of the territory of Indiana, now lives only in memory, while the free state struggle in Kansas produced several towns, memorable for their association with famous men and historic events, which long since fell into decay and have now utterly vanished from the earth.
