RELATIONS WITH TURKEY.
Tho rumors that a rupture of di
plomatic relations between the
United States and Turkey is immi
nent are nufounded. The relations
between the Porte and the United
States legation are excellent. In
fact, the United States charge
d'affaires, Lloyd C. Oriscom, has
beon received in audience six times
this year. Only a fortnight ago he
was invited to a musical entertain
ment at tho Yildiz palace. This
proves he is jwsona grata at the
palace. The visit of the United States
battleship Kentucky to Smyrna
does not Influence the nature of these
relations, though it does induce the
Porte to more strictly concert itself
with the United States claims for
indemnity, 'vhich wore already on
the point of solution. Dr. Thomas
II. Norton is going Monday, to take
possession of his post at liar poo t.
The United States legation will
continue to press its demand for an
exequatur, but prompt solution of
this question ia not likely. The
order to the Cramps of Philadelphia,
for a cruiser, will be small, the price
being lees than 500,000 Turkish
ponnda.

A cable dispatch from Paris says :
It is stated here on very good an
thority that the French Foreign

Dr. lyyds assurance that if Oer
many will undertake to raise no ob-
juctions and not to place herself on
F.ngland'a side, France and Uneata

matter of intervention ia the Trans

persuado the Kaiser to ait quiet if

of the Transvaal may arise, but it is
doubtful it it will d any good.

A dispatch from New Orleans, La.,

The Mistake of Mothers.
But no one can Uke a mother's
place, and it ia an awful mistake that
that mother makes who sacrifices
borne duties for anv church meet
ing, however important, or any
hospital, however merciful, or any
beneficence, however glorious and
grand. Not understanding thia, we
wiio.ano nucu no If J lO i;lTB BIBUS-
tics as to how many Christiana there
are in our churches aud in the
world. We understate the facta.
We look over our church andianwa
on the Sabbath or our weekly service
and conclude that they represent the
amount of piety in that neighbor-
nood. vh, no! Ihore are many
most consecrated souls that are not
found in the churches. Look into
those houses with lares fmilii nf
children and little or no hired help.
For much of tbe year there ia some
one ill, and a special guardian care
ia requisite. Jlow much time can
that mother give to churches and
prayer meetinge when most of the
family are down with hcarlot fevnr
or have colds that threaten now ona
kind of disease and now another !
That mother watching at home as
much pleases the Lord as the moih
er who at church takes the sacia.
metit or in the minion school tells
the waifs of the street how thev hn.
come sons and daughters of the
Lord Almighty. That mother at
home is deciding the destiny of tbe
utate by the way she leads that boy
lino iuc rigui minting ana acting
and is deciding the wo! fare of .m
future home by the example she is
set' log that girl, and though the
world doca not appreciate the un
observed work heaven watches and
rewards. On the other band, you
have known women who are off at

decided last February against the

decision held that the freight rates

and that freight rates for northern

The Southern Kail way claims that

at other points. Inferring to the
claim of the company that ita f 1 20,

of the commission would deprive
the owners of their stock of their
