NEW WOMAN IN TURKEY WANTS FREEDOM AND UNLIMITED HUSBANDS Story of a Woman Who Forced Her Husbaod to Take Second Wife Because She Loved Him. THE MUSICAL VOL. 23. NO. 20. NEW WOMAN IN WANTS FREE UNLIMITE Story of a Woman Who For Second Wife Because By PERCY LIN When Demetra Vaka Brown first told me of the great happiness of the women of the Turkish harem, in their belief that man was made for many wives, she spoke casually of the "new woman" of Turkey, and at once the conviction came that therein might be found the keynote to the true conditions existing under the flag of the "Sick Man of Europe." For the existence of the new woman" can carry with it but one thought—the existence of discontent. It seemed certain that inquiry must reveal the secret misery and longing of a veritable multitude whose hearts are sore and wounded and whose lives are blagged by this pernicious social custom of the Turk. Surely human nature could not be so widely different in parts of the earth; surely, despite environment, despite the growth of a belief accepted as a matter of course and implanted generations and generations ago, there still must exist in Turkey women who are moved by the same passions, the same love as their American and English sisters. It could not be more unfortunate that the leisure is utter unpropto, that the desire for sole possession of a single love is utter unknown. For there must be young women and old women and pretty women and homely women, and women that be good by nature and those that be bad from choice. It seems discredited that a husband's love could be equally divided between four wives. One at least must find the greater favor—and that this should not bring about misery and a longing for a happier life appeared utterly preposterous. Some idea of Mrs. Brown's right to a hearing on this subject of Turkey may be gathered first from the following facts: First, she comes from an old Greek family. Then she was born in Turkey on the largest island of the Propenat. Her entire childhood was passed in Turkey, where she had many friends among the Turkish girls, and saw a man from the haram Museum over, her mingling was among the best and most intellectual class, her father being in the government employ. Her first visit to America was at the age of eighteen, when she sought the "land of the free" to escape the necessity of a distasteful marriage. Mrs. Brown has just returned from visiting Turkey whose familiar domestic customs she observed with new eyes in the light of her American experience. The charming conversationist had scarcely finished her explanation of the extreme happiness of the wives of the haram, when I questioned her children, "Tell me now of this new development," I said, "for the spirit of 'reform,' so-called or real, must have appeared in Turkey." "Yes," said Mrs. Brown, "there is a 'new woman,' and she is just as foolish in Turkey as she is in America. First, she is the child of the French yellow backed novel. She will tell you she longs for freedom, that she threshes out her soul as a bird beats its wings against the bars of its cage. But her ideas of freedom are comical. Her freedom is something entirely different from the freedom as it is known in America. She wishes to be like the European women; and in the same breath she will, tell you European woman is good, as the Turks understand goodness. 'Ah,' said one to me, 'Why shall I not be free in America? Then I can find a husband in the park. I shall walk much. I shall choose a very handsome man, too, and then I shall go along further and the freedom of travel.' When I explained that American women were SULTAN AND GERMAN EMPEROR REVIEWING TURKISH TROOPS FILING PAST YILDIZ PALACE, THE SULTAN'S REFUGE OF RE-TREAT.

NOTE—THERE ARE NONE BUT EUROPEAN WOMEN IN THE CROWD. choose another. Think of the beautiful husband one might have if she had not allowed to have more than one husband—that is, one at a time—she said that seemed very silly. Yet this woman was quite intellectual, and her "new" idea of freedom did not seem to shock her sense of refinement in the least. "You see, there is a tremendous simplicity of nature to be considered. The Turkish women are just like children, considering them in connection with moral viciousness, as we understand it. The Turkish 'new woman' cannot see why a woman is not justified in having four husbands when a man is justified in having four wives. The justification of the man is never questioned. Her Turkish sister of the old school intends in vain that Allah has not so intended—that man and woman are differently constituted. The number of husbands in a large number of children is not shocking to her. On the contrary, to be a mother is the supreme happiness, and she cannot seem to conceive that children cannot be disposed of in America, just as they are in Turkey. Surely, she thinks if they cannot be sold into slavery, then the state will make an allowance for them. "I continued the conversation with this young girl just to gather her viewpoint. When I told her the state in America never takes charge of children and that parents have to accept this financial and moral responsibility of their rearing, that this is regarded as a private and not a government affair, she said, 'Oh, dear! What a wicked government'—and then, as if a sudden inspiration burst upon her—But all this will be changed, won't it, because you elect your own government, don't you, and they will put a new ruler in power? I told her that the American men had no idea of changing their laws in this respect, and this seemed to delight her greatly. It came SULTAN AND GERMAN EMPEROR FILING PAST YILDIZ PALACE, TREAT.

Defective Page will vote soon, I know. Then all this wickedness will be swept away. You cannot keep advanced ideas down in America, I fancy, any more than you can in Turkey." Mrs. Brown, "Brown," I said, "is not this the reasoning of ignorance, and surely ignorance is not happiness?" "I suppose it is," was the reply, "but it is not the ignorance you mean. It is an ignorance of the manners, customs and viewpoint of America, but see how little you know of the manners and viewpoint of Turkey." And then she hopped up, plumping, sivery laugh that smacked of merriment rather than mockery while she gave me time to "think it over." "Some of the most refined women of Turkey are not educated perhaps in the American sense," continued Mrs. AWAITING THE EXIT OF THE SU HE WORSHIPS—NO Brown, "yet they are intelligent, and I tell you they are happy. I don't think American education absolutely necessary to happiness." "But do these women read?" "Yes. And they have a very sweet REVIEWING TURKISH TROOPS THE SULTAN'S REFUGE OF RE- NONE BUT EUROPEAN WOMEN IN literature of their own. Many of them are clever writers. They don't jam their heads full of Henry Jameses and Laura Jenesses, of course, but really they are not to be blamed for that. The European literature shocks them. They can see nothing but wickedness in the American women—for, they say, does she not force all sorts of men to usurp her lord to obey the will of Allah? Or does she love her and her home, yet she drives him to desertion and deciet. "The seemingly logical arguments and the wonderful views of the 'new woman' of Turkey show clearly what an amazing influence environment and custom have on life. The new Turkish man is totally different. He is nothing more than the Turk of deprivacy. He has discarded his religion and he finds his delight in parading French and other women of lax character in public, much to the general disgust. He is generally shunned. And usually he dies quickly. Drink kills him. The Turk is not used to alcohol. Allah forbids it. Alcohol is rarely seen in Turkey, and when the Turk becomes a "New Turk" and runs to license—he gets gray and dies. The Turk brought to manhood in the field of his fathers and then 'reformed' is doomed more surely than the murderer in his cell. "But the heart aches, the dull, sickening pain of love that is lost, that must be felt at least in some instances," I said, "what of these? "Let me tell you," said Mrs. Brown, "of my first visit to the harem after my return to Constantinople, where I found that two of my girl friends had married the same husband—Nassarah and Tsakran. They were beautiful girls, natural comedians, intellectual, and of the best families. I found them extremely happy in their new condition, far happier in fact than when I had left them, for they had accomplished the one great ambition of the followers of Allah—both were mothers. My welcome was warm and sincere. Yet I had hardly removed the dust of travel and enjoyed the luxury of a bath before Nassarai said to me with the usual Turkish candor: 'Silver cloud of the sky we are so happy to see you, but you have changed so much; your face is not as beautiful as it was; the cruel people you have been with must have caused you much agony. I have been once did—and we see we are so happy'" "Tell me, I said, 'how you came to marry the same husband.' Both girls —for they were little more than girls—began to laugh. “Tell her, Nassarah,’ said Tsakran,‘tell her.’ And then little Nassarah began, after the manner of the Turks, in beginning to relate a story:‘The beginning of the tale—good evening, most honorable company. When I married Hilmi Pasha I was so much in love with him I was nearly a lance with delight and happiness. I could not sleep, but just lay there, and watched him while he slept, and—” “Here the other wife broke in the narrative. You must see him,’ she said. ‘He is an ideal lover, so tall, handsome, blue eyes, and how he walks, so—’ and she began to stalk across the room after the manner of her lord and master. Nassarah grabbed her quickly and sat on her a cushioned divan. ‘Keep quiet,’ she said. ‘This is my story.’ Then the girls giggled for a moment, when Nassarah continued. ‘Soon my other little girl came,’ she went on, and I suffered greatly. The doctor said I should not have any more children. And I had no one for Hilmi Pasha. It was then I ford for Hilmi Pasha. It was then I ford for Hilmi Pasha. It was then I ford for Hilmi Pasha. It was then I ford for Hilmi Pasha. She knew how noble and good Hilmi was. so we laid our plan. That night I put my arms around my lord’s neck and told him. he must marry Tsakran. At first he thought, and then I told him he must not think at all about it. Tsakran has brought us two sons, and Hilmi is just as happy as we are. Both women laughed with delight. “What is done,” I said, in cases of infidelity. Does the law punish? "No. Such cases are very rare. When they do happen"—with an expressive shrug of the shoulders"—the result usually is a little poison in the tea. Sometimes the man disappears, sometimes the woman, sometimes but"—And is there no investigation?" "None. You see, the law requires immediate burial. There is no official reports of deaths, and never is there any inquiry into the private affairs of the household. But you see there are so few opportunities for intrigue. Perhaps the practice of part of the Turkish system would be disastrous. But in its entirety it seems to produce a very happy people. The Turkish husband loves a lover. He is always courting. He does not spend all of his time with one wife. And other, love seems to last longer than it does under the European system. I have told you before, however. I do not endorse or condemn: I simply relate facts and results." In a single day Geronimo, when in his prime, ran forty miles on foot, rode 500 miles on one stretch, as fast as he could change horses, and so completely wore out the column which finally captured him that three sets of officers were needed to finish the chase, and not more than one-third of the troopers who started were in at the finish. Wrinkled and crafty and cruel is his swarthy face to-day, but the fire of his infernal energy has died and he is no more than a relic of the Geronimo of whom Gen. Miles said after the first meeting. "He took our camp and dismounted, a prisoner. He was one of the brightest, most resolute, determined men I ever met, with the sharpest clearest dark eye. Every movement showed power and energy CHARLEY ROSS, THE PICTURE USED IN THE SEARCH Unless all signs fail, the Marvin case is going to make the way of the kidnapper harder than it has been. Washington was brought into the case when the frenzied father of the four-year-old boy, Horace Marvin, who in the interval of seven minutes disappeared as completely from his Dover, Del, home as if the earth had closed on him, appealed to President Roosevelt to aid in the search for the missing lady. England and other foreign governments were also communicated with and Mr. Roosevelt expressed the opinion that save only for assaults on women, kidnapping constituted the most serious possible assault on the home. Many members of the national legislative body believe that the stealing of children to hold them for purposes of ransom ought to be elevated to the rating of capital crime, punishable by death. The police authorities favor such a law. They say that the kidnapper is the hardest of all criminals to apprehend. The man who steals a child keeps it near him ever has a power which over the authorities at his mercy. The instant they make a threatening move or seem to be chasing in on the quarry, the kidnapper has only to drop a letter in any mail box informing the police that unless CHARLEY ROSS, THE PICTURE they draw off he will kill the child. Then pursuit is paralyzed. This has been the case in nearly every notable instance of Kidnapping. Christian Ross, father of Charley Ross, principal of the most famous kidnapping case in American annals, went to his grave convinced that his son had been done to death by kidnappers when the latter feared that they were on the eve of capture, and could not afford to take the chance of being convicted on the evidence of the unfortunate boy. Ross had money. He lived in Germantown, Philadelphia, and was a prosperous merchant. On July 1, 1874, his four-year-old son, Charley, was carried away in a wagon by two men believed to be Mosher and Douglas, two New York thieves. The abductors demanded $20,000 ransom, which the frenzied father was willing to pay in order to get his son back, but unfortunately in their eagerness to capture the criminals the police laid a trap, which in some way came to the knowledge of those who had been involved in the robbing the house of Judge Van Brunt, in New York. In September, 1875, Theodore Westervelt, a brother-in-law of Mosher, was arrested, charged with complicity in stealing the Ross boy. He managed to disprove this, but was convicted of being an accession in that he knew where the boy was during the time the authorities, had been searching for him. Westervest was sentenced to seven years in jail. He could have gained his freedom at any time by telling where the boy could be found, but as That's What Hurt "I don't like that there Mrs. Swellman at all," said Mrs. Nuritch. "Well, you ain't got to take no no nice of her." renilled Mr. Nuritch. Confidential. Husband—But, my dear, if Mrs. Nextdoor told you in strict confidence you shouldn't tell me.

Westervelt would have gained nothing by such an admission, rather public indignation would have made his punishment even more severe. Hence he kept silent. The man who kidnapped Freddie Muth of Philadelphia a few years ago, made exactly the same threats as THE LATEST KIDNAPPED BOY. of those of the Ross kidnappers. His name was Keen, and he took the boy on his way from school. But for more than a week the kidnapper, Charles Keen, sent special delivery letters, cunningly contrived to drive father and mother to frenzy. These missives told that Freddie was sick, that he was crying for his mother, that anything might happen unless $5,000 were promptly deposited at a place named in the letters. Pat Crouve, who kidnapped Edward Cudahy, the heir to the Cudahy millions, for a ransom of $25,000, was more fortunate, for the public dislike of the millionaire meat packer actually resulted in an acquittal for Crow, though there was no doubt whatever as to his guilt. In this case the ransom was paid, and the boy walked home unharmed. Stringent laws against kidnapping are more needed in the United States than anywhere else. In England and the countries of Europe, the child whose parents have money enough to make it worth while to kidnip him, is guarded like a hot potato, and there is little or no opportunity to help him. Under present conditions the risk oftimes seems worth while to a desperate man crazed for gash. The worst penalty that can happen is a term in jail, and this is ever likely to be terminated years before it ends by an allowance made for good behavior. But if, as many lawmakers desire, kidnapping be advanced to the place of a capital crime, with the gallows or electrical chair as a certain punishment, it would take a hardy criminal indeed to run the risk.

GIST: In the opinion of THE APPBAL, the recent donation of Miss Jeanes, ot Philadelphia, is by long odds, the most sensible thing done for the promotion of education in the South for a quarter of a century. The donation of a mill- ion for the promotion of rural schéois, if properly administered and applied. will accomplish more real good than ten times the amount applied in any other direction whatever, for there is the greatest need and the most nez- lected point. The same is not oni true cf the South but of the entire country, but the evil exists In the South in the most exaggerated form, and most foretbly calls for a remedy. ‘The yelpings and howlings that come up from the South in regard to the segregation of the school funds, are ridiculous in the extreme, from the fact that the funds are, virtually seg- regated already, from the fact that funds are actually expended at the aiscretion of a board composed ex- clusively of white men.

If white girls are sent to school with Negro boys. to sit beside them, to regard them as their play- mates and so¢ial equals, all the jail sentences that can be imposed will be ineffectual to prevent marriages with them.” While there may be a great deal of truth in this pronouncement THE AP. PEAL must hesitaté a little before ac- cepting it, for the reason that it seems t8 be in opposition to the teachings of very many standard theologians, according to whom, the creator has implanted in the natures of different, races stch intense and unconquerable antipathies as to absolutely preclude sexual affinities. To be sure, there were many occurrences svhich seemed to indicate that the argument was rather a feeble specimen of logic, but the matter was one of the ipse dixit sort, and was, at least a good working hypotiesis.

They Picture Our Civilization for the Past 00 Years, Whe Bnglish and American lawyers and judges have worked out a won- derful system that must command the admiration of all who have competent knowledge of it. The system is formed by the reports of the decisions of courts of last re- sort. : ‘There are probably now some 12,000 volumes of reports, giving the disposi- tion of hundreds of thousands of par- ticular instances that ave arisen in the actual course’ of the ever chang- ing relations in human affairs.

Whe young man’s father, a very pomp. ous individual, heard of it, and meet. ing the successful gamester on the street next day stopped him. The deaf and dumb man produced his little pad. On it the irate and pompous fe- ther wrote: ‘I understand you won Bob's gold watch the other night’ He handed it to the deaf and dumb man, expecting to see him change counte- nance and offer to give up the spoil The latter did not quite do that, how. ever. Instead he took the pad, wrote two words carefully on it'and returned it. ‘The pompous father read inscribed thereon: “‘And chain!’ “That ended the affair."—New Or. leans Times-Democrat,: Unele Peter was observed to be nail- ing the furniture to the floor and re- moving all the rolling pins and china- ware from the kitchen, “Expecting something, uncle?” ask- ed the caller curiously. “Yeas, boss,” replied the old man solemnly, “I'm expectin’ a stohm.” “You don't say.

Mrs. Rachel Harris Yields to King Death After Weeks of Suffering After many weeks of suffering Mrs. Rachel Harris passed to the Shining Hospital afternoon May 7, 1907. The funeral was held in the Methodist church Thursday afternoon, Rev. E. G. Schutz officiating, and the services were attended by a large number who had been friends of the deceased partnered friend of everybody in the city. Born in slavery, her age is not exactly known, but she claimed to be about 69 years old. Her first acquaintance with the Marengo people was at the age of 12 and kindheartedness soon found her nursing in Uncle Same's hospitals. After a short service of this character she was sent North and with two daughters came to Marengo in 1863, and this place has ever since been her home. She was married to a man who lived in the 120 years ago. Like all people born and brought up as a slave, she was uneducated but possessed that higher culture which all possess who closely emulate the character of Him who came into this world to set the captives free. Desire for the imitation and esteem of all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. For many years she was a devoted follower of the World's Savior and a most faithful attendant upon the various services of the Methodist church, to which she was a member of the Woman's Relief Corps and the local W. C. T. U. It was her happiness to always extend a helping hand and kindly word of sympathy to any in trouble and affliction. During the many weeks of intense suffering she will of her Master, and carried out the Biblical injunction to "cast thy burdens upon the Lord." While she had long ministered to the wants of others, so in her last sickness the people were most generous in trying to alleviate her burden. Her only daughter, Mrs. John R. White, has been here for some weeks and tested her health. In the death of Mrs. Harris, many of our people who had the pleasure of her acquaintance, realize that they have lost a true and self-sacrificing friend, and will sincerely mourn with her only surviving daughter and relatives. - Marengo (III).

One of the most remarkable exhibits to be installed in the Afro-American Department is a friction-heater, of the kind used in the factory, is the inventor and patentee. In this wonderful machine, Mr. Baker has managed to multiply seven times over the average efficiency of electricity, producing heat by the friction process and has secured results almost unbelievable. Mr. Baker uses a railway passenger coach without using an ounce of fuel, obtaining the motive power necessary to run his friction heater from the revolutions of the axle of the trucks beneath the cabin, when probably $8,000 worth of pipes would ordinarily be required, and will operate a coffee stand at the exposition, where he will serve coffee made by his friction-heater. Dr. Baker's unique machine bids fair to revival the heat for public and private purposes. Mr. Clarence Cameron White, director of the musical exhibit, will have as a feature of his collection, a list of the music teachers of the country, to gather with the branches of music taught, number of pupils and other data showing the extent of the development and aspiration of the Afro-American in the musical arena.

FOR THE MAN WHO CARES STANLEY SHOE COMPANY 422 Nicollet’ Ave. STORY OF SOUTH SEA SHARK. He Swallows an Alarm Clock With Mest Unusual Results. ahile cruising among the South Sea fslands thirty-odd years ago in our private yaeht, the Haute Flyer, we were much annoyed by a large Irish setter shark that persisted in follow- ing the ship. During the night the shark would often climb up on deck and tip over the garbage can. At one time Henry Williams, a sailor before the mast, was bitten on the leg vy the brute. He aimed a kick at the shark, which growled, showed his teeth and sunk his fangs in Williams’ limb be fore leaping over the rail into the Fea. One day the cook, annoyed at his alarm clock—which persisted in going off furiously ‘at all hours of the night— threw the timepiece overboard. The shark, always on hand for dainty tid- bits from 'the galley, took the time of day at one guly, For two days after that we heard the clock going off in a muffled way from the interior of the surprised shark, who was often seen with one fin on his head and the other on the pit of his stomach, evidently trying to diagnose his clock case. ‘We were standing on the stern of the ship one evening watching the sherk, who was evidently feeling pret- ty sick. Suddenly the clock went off on him and the sailors, counting the strokes, moticed that it struck twenty- three. When the shark heard this he turned up and died before our eyes.— Minneapolis Journal, RICH MAN'S GAME. When Each Player Could Have a Foct- ball. When Jemima’s younger brother took her to the first football match she had ever seen, her enthusiasm was unbounded and her curiosity very Keen. “They must be a very poor team,” she remarked, referring to the home eleven, when the game had been in progress for some time. “Oh, no, they're not,” sreplfed her brother. “They are supposed to be a jolly good and strong lot.” “That isn't what T mean,” persisted Jemima; “they're not rich, are they?” “Certainly not! Most of them are poor working men, and they don't get half the support they deserve. The club is In debt as it is.” For a moment. there was silence. ‘Then Jemima said platntively: “Poor fellows® I should like to see rich men play, because then, I sup- pose, each man could afford to have a football. of, his own.”—Answers. The Queer Parson Bird. ‘Two splendid male specimens of the poe honrey eater were recently ac- quired by the Zoological society. Its throat is adorned with small white feathers, which, from their resem- blance to clerical bands, have gained for it the name “parson bird.” Its metallic green plumage, with bronze and purplish reflections, is very beau- Xifut. Its long and rather slender beak is curved; it has rather large feet, and the length of its tail fs con- siderable. : Although somewhat rarely seen in this country alive, this bird is pienti- fel on both the north and south islands of New Zealand; it is a good songster and mimic, and its lively temperament renders it a most inter- esting cage bird. Its food consists of berries, insects and honey. It has an extensive tongue, the tip of which is forked, and, being: covered with fibers, forms a kind of brush, most useful to the parson bird in gathering Sts food, De ete | ee pl Libel tas ”- < ‘Worecs Saved by. a.

No one had been the driverless horses g0, and it was thought they had been stolen. The man walked home and discovered the house dog was also missing. Some days later the dog re- turned to the farm, got some food and drink and started away, barking fu- Yiously. He was followed, and in a piece of the woods several miles away the team was discovered. The horses had wedged the wagon between two trees and there they had stood five days without food or drink. ‘They haa gnawed the bark from:the trees. - Growth of Canadian Population. ‘The census of 1901 showed the Canadian population to be: 5,371,315, /an increase of about 500,000 over 1891; 2 calculation based on a census of the Northwest, the immigration re- turns and otker official sources. of in- formation estimates sthat since 1891 ther ehas been 1,000,000 increase in the population, ja far larger growth than has been shown in any decadal census, since confederation, in 1866, | and one-fifth of: the total growth of the dominion during the whole of the | nineteenth century. ‘The annual show of the Vermilion: County (Ind.)
