When the Women Vote.

A circular came in the course of the mail— A circular dainty and white. 'Twas printed in script and well gotten up

And worded in fashion polite. In envelope square and with monogram, too, Somo function it seemed to denote, But when it was read it proved but to bo

A brief invitation to vote.

She pondered it over and knitted her brow— She never had had one before— Then studied the date for a minute or two

And thought of engagements a score. And could she find time? sho asked of herself. She'd a luncheon, she knew, for that day, And an afternoon tea that sho ought to attend—

The outlook was pleasant and gay.

The new invitation was novel, of course, And that had a charm of its own, But the joys of a tea sho had tasted beforo,

While those of the polls wern unknown. She wearily sighed, and she picked up her pen As one whom a problem besets, And the campaign committee received the next day

Trebizond the Scene of the Last Massacre.

MANY ARMENIANS SLAIN.

Even the Soldiers Stationed There Partloipated in the Slaughter—The Porte Has Not Yet Answered the Six Powers—Gunboats Near There and May l$e Summoned

at Any Time. TREBIZOND, Armenia, Oct. 10.—Serious conflicts between Turks and Armenians oeenrrcd here yestsrday. Many Armenians woi'e killed. The lurks were armed and the number of troops present here is few. No attempt was made to stop the massacre of the Armenians. In fact it is even stated that the soldiers took part in the slaughter and in the pillage which accompanied it.

THE PORTE STILL STUBBORN.

The Six Powers Have Not Been Answered and a Cri: is Is Approaching. CONSTANTINOPL.K, Oct. 10.—The representatives of the six powers are today still waiting lor a detinue reply to the identical communications recently handed to the Turkish government on behalf of their respective governments, and in which they specify the reforms for Armenia, which, in their opinion, should be accepted by the government of Turkey, and promulgated by imperial decree.

Suggestions, semi-official notes and visits of government officials to the envoys of the powers followed the receipt of this identical communication but, the distinct, categorical reply of the Turkish government seems to be delayed by first one thing and then another until the patience of tho European governments is becoming exhausted, and definite action upon their part, may shortly be expected. In view of the continued increasing gravity of the situation, the British Mediterranean squardron remains at Leninos (Stalimni) within a short steaming distance of the entrance of the Dardinells.

The obstinacy of the porte under the circumstances is not generally understood. No lephyhas been made to the request of Sir lJi.-uy Currie, the British ambassador, made shortly after the massacre, that he be allowed to visit the prison* in which the Armenians charged with noting are confined, to take their depositions for transmission to the various European governments interested.

HEADING OFF FILIBUSTERS.

The Cincinnati and Other Ships Reported About to Sail. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.—The treasury department lias received through the secretary of state and the Spanish minister the substance of a telegram from the Spanish consul at Key West stating in effect that another filibustering expedition is fitting out at Pine reef, one of the Flordia keys. Leaders and a considerable number of men have left for there. The Cincinnati is said to be at Key West and the Woodall is about to start from New Orleans conveying a party.

The Childs, probably now at Key West, is preparing to sail. Assistant Secretary Wike has sent telegraphic copies of the Spanish minister's note to the collectors of customs at New Orleans, Key West and Tampa, with instructions for them to consult the United States attorney and the officers of the nearest revenue cutters, with a view to preventing any violation of the neutrality laws of the United States.

Trouble at Home.

ST. PRTKBSBURG, Oct. 10.—A correspondent of Tho Novoe Vrcmya at Blagove'tchensk, capital of the Amoor government of Kussiau Asia, says that advices which have been received thero from Japan announce that the KntiKuropean party is seriously agitating against tho decision of the Japanese government to evacuate tho Liao-Tung peninsula, declaring that tne evacuation will cause political complications of a grave nature.

Fireman Under lalliug Wall. KANSAS CITY, Oct. 10.—Fire which Btarted from alighted cigarette at 3:45 vesterday morning in the 51-story brick building at Fourth and Walnut streets, occupied principally by the Theater Comique, completely destroyed that structure. A. E. Kennedy of Insurance Patrol No. 1, a brother-in-law of Chief Hale, was crush..d by falling walls and can not live. The pecuniary loss is about $25,000. The "Luilding was an old landmark.

111 Hl» Own Defons« He Tells the Story Outlined by His Counsel. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct, 10.—Theodora Durant was placed on the stand yesterday, for the purpose of convincing the jury selected to try him, that he did not murder Blanche Lamont in the belfry

of the Emanuel church on April b. With the same ooolness that has characterized his conduct since his arrest, lie denied the principal allegations that have been riade against him by the most important witnesses for the prosecution. His answers were always brief and to the point, and many were interpreted to mean that he hail studied his part well before taking the stand.

Only once during the course of the direct examination dM lie show nervousness or. hesitancy. When Attorney Dickinson asked him if he took notes at Dr. Cheney's lecture on the afternoon of April 8, he cast his eyes toward the floor and for a moment was silent. He replied that he had taken notes, but- that they were brief. The hesitancy of the prisoner may be understood when it is explained that Gilbert F. Graham, one of Durant's most intimate friends, will testify that Durant i'slcod to borrow h:s notes of the lecture. When the request was made Durant explained that lie only needed the notes to establish a good uiili. Graham refused the request.

Taken altogether, Durant's direct testimony, which ended at 3 o'clock, when the cross-examination began, had a tendency to strengthen his case. His demeanor while on the stand was certainly intended to impress the jury with the opinion that lie was telling the truth. Questions that would ordinarily cause a visible impression on a guilty man were answered by Durant with the utmost unconcern. Even when Attorney Deuprey asked him if, on the 3d of April, or at any other time, he murdered or participated in the murdering of Blanche Lamont, the prisoner coolly replied in the negative.

A significant feature of the testimony was the fact that while Durant was tolling of several incidents that took place at a prayer meeting held on the evening of April 3, Mrs.

THIRTY CONTESTED SEATS.

In Not One of Tlieai Are the Preliminaries Completed. WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.—Not one of the contests against members of the new house of representatives is complete. In most of them the testimony furnished on behalf of both the contestant and contestee has been deposited with the clerk, but in none have the contestants filed their testimony in rebuttal.

In the Bolknap-McGann case from the Third Illinois district. Mr. ^icGauu has not yet furnished his testimony, which, according to law, lie should have done within 40 days after that of the contestant. Although this is the law, the house is not always guided by tiie statute if satisfactory explanations for the delay ar.i furnished. In th« BeattiePrice case from tiie Third Louisiana, for instance, Mr. Price's testimony was delayed by tr.raillpox, which was epidemic in certain parts of his district.

Although no official information has been received to that effect, it is understood at the clerk's office here, that R. A. Cheseborough. who filed notice of contest against George B. McClellan of the Twelfth New York, has abandoned his contest. In the other two New York eases (Mitchell against Walsh, in the Eighth, and Campbell against Miner, in the Ninth), the contestees have not filed their testimony owing to some local hitch, and Mitchell, it is understood, charges Walsh with attempting to delay the case.

All the contestants in the 30 cases are Republicans save Goodrich, who is contesting Cobb's seat in tiie Fifth Alabama, and Campbell who is contesting Miner's seat. Gopdfiich is a Populist, who had the Republican indorsement, and Campbell ran'US an independent Democratic candidate. The general opinion is that the cases of the contestants who are seated by the next house will have to be very meritorious, as the Republican majority is overwhelming and tltere is no political emergency which would tend to make the members look on contests with anything but an impartial eye to their justice. *.

ASKING FOR JUDGMENT.

Sensational Suit Growing Gut of the Lima Bank Kail ure. LIMA, O., Oct. 10.—A sensational suit growing out of the failure of the Lima National, bank four years ago, has been commenced by James A. Hover, one of the stockholders, who has sued B. C. Faurot, as agent and director, and D. J. Cable, W. H. Harper, Jacob Moser, C. A. Metheany and W. H. Stephens, all prominent citizens, and directors in the defunct bank.

Hover charged that the directors made quarterly reports that the bank's capital stock was unimpaired and that it had a surplus, while in reality tho bank had no capital, and no surplus remained after the payment of indebtedness. Hover charges the directors with allowing the money, property and effects ol: tho bank to be wasted and squandered, and that its stock was the ruby rendered worthless. He asks judgment for tho amount of his stock and interest which ho lost in tho failure.

Convict Suicides in llis Cell. COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 10. Milton Townsend, a 5-year convict from Hamilton county, sent up for cutting, who was found dead in his cell during the night, was found yesterday to have committed suicide. He worked in the polishing shop, where sulphuric acid is used, and he took a quantity to his cell and drank it.

Kenianded For aNew Trial. MARYSVIIXE, O., Oct. JO.—The circnit court set aside the sentence of Charles Lieurauoe, who had been conI victed of aiding in the burglary of a storo in Richwood, and remanded the case to the common pleas court for a new trial.

TRAFFIC IN TANGIER.'

It In Largs aud Coiitim«ous anil Apparently Conducted Under Difficulties. The traffic in Tangier is large and continuous. There is no footpath proper, anil the foot passenger has often to pick his way among heavily laden donkeys and camels. Sometimes he is jostled by Jews in dark blue jelabs and skullcaps, the distinctive badges of their race sometimes his progress is stopped by a burly negro slave, all in white or faded yellow, bearing on his head a tray of bread from the public bakehouse sometimes he is swept into a miry corner by half a dozen of the sultan's cavalry, whose richly caparisoned steeds, flowing robes, flintlocks or spears, make up altogether an imposing spectacle. Perhaps also he may find himself confronted by a huge packing case borne down the street on the back of a donkey and supported on each side by men of color, who alarm the neighborhood with shouts of "balak."

The most interesting sight in Tangier —at least, ftom an artistic point of view —is tho sok, or large market place for country products. It lies immediately outside the wall in tho upper part of the town and is approached through the old slave market, now converted into a shoeing forge. In the forenoon it is too crowded to be interesting, but in the afternoon, when business has somewhat slackened, scenes of varied inter3st may be observed.

Yonder is a water carrier, with large goatskin bag slung over his shoulder, attracting your attention with the tinkle of a bell to tho refreshing draft ho offers. Here is a gaunt Arab from the Riff mountains, bareheaded, blanket draped and flashing eyed, interviewing with fierce and threatening gestures an obdurate looking Jew, who is evidently demanding his pound of flesh. Near them is a country woman seated behind a small semicircle of milk jars. Her shriveled, wornout features can bo discerned through the folds of her coarse liaik, which she holds carelessly together with her left hand, while with her right sho lifts tho lid from one of tho jars.—Good Words.
