Story ei Armenian Girl Whe Was Cap

New" T6r, -Jnn-18.-i-One -of-tm
most pitiful stories of savagery pract
iced by Turks or Circassians upon the
Armenian - deported during . the war
from their homes Into the country at
the Arabs Is told by Victor arsbab
dlan, a girl of eighteen years. -Her
story has been made public here by
the , American 'Committee for Armen
ian and Syrian Relief. The girl was
the daughter of a well-to-do merchant
who bad a shop In Constantinople and
- another at Nevsher, , Turkey, where
the whole family lived. ; Y,
In her narrative to a British physi
cian She said that her father and foui
brothers were deported and that her
father died while oh the Journey, from
a blow Inflicted by a gendarme. Carry,
lug their little fortune of 8000 pounds
lp gold they were marched south to
the vicinity of Deir-Es-zor (probably
on the Euphrates river). There they
found a great congregation of refugees,
asid to number t.uuu ramiites.
While ar Deir-Bs-Zor, Murad or
Suvar, the girl said twenty Armenian
priests were taken from among the
refugees, bound, together, sent away
and killed. In Abe river at Suvar she
saw one hundred 4Mlies of men. Women
and children some with their heads Oil.
After collecting a ransom, the Mutes-
sarif ordered the men Of the refugees
brought before him "to sign a paper:
The next day she said she saw the
Circassians shoot down three hundred
of them. Then the Mutesaarlf, Zeki Bey,
ordered nine of the bodies of the Ar
menians placed iu the road and drove
his carriage over them. He-announced
that he would kill all the male refu
gees over two years old. Up to that
time her brother has escaped death by
briliery but he was taken away with
others and on leaving said to his mo
ther : "Mother, I am going to die. Give
me your hand and I will kiss it. For
give me anything 1 have done wrong to
you. (loodbye. Her brother was shot
before Victoria's eyes. She declared
al ho that she saw Armenians killed by
driving wooden stakes through them,
that, two were burled alive by the
Arabs and that eventually the Clrcas-
slns began to kill all the women and
children, with their knives. Her tie-
soriDtion of this massacre is too aw
ful to be told for she gives details of
the fiendish, nuinner lu which it was
accomplished.
Afterward Victoria was separated
from her mother and sent to the tent
of an Arab where she remained for two
weeks. In that period, she said, she
taw two hundred small boys from Mes-
keneh brought through Deir-Es-Zor to
Shadadleh and saw these children kill
ed in various ways und thrown or
kicked into the river.
She escaped from the Arab's tent,
was recaptured by the Arabs with two
other girls from Harput hut later was
allowed to go her way. After a year
and a half nhc reached Aleppo where

It's hard to astonish American boys
these days. "Look, son, there s an air
plane!" said a naval officer, home on
leave, to his seven-year-old a few day:
ago as the youngster Was barncssiuM
his dog to a cart. "Oh, yes," replied the
sou, without looking up, "that's only
the mail-plane." "Shades of the old-time
circus and cotinty fair!" exclaims a
writer in the Minneapolis Tribune,
who tells the story, as he sees the old
fashioned ballon-ascension paling into

now, and almost every day there is a
report of a new use to which some-,
body is putting the airplane. Thus we
hear of (ne air-cop, or modern fly-cop,
who keeps a watchful eye on sundry
miscreants in out-of-the-way places as
only angels were formerly supposed
to do. Then there is the air-cowboy
