THE CANADIAN PASHA THE CAREER OF TURKISH VlC>*- AOMIRAL SUCKNAM. Nova Scotia Lad Who Went to $ea and Became a Sea Captain at Seventeen Was Sent From Cramp's to Train Turkish Sailors and Saved Abdul's Life Is a Fighter Through, out and Has No Idea of Fear, Bucknam Pasha, Vice -Admiral the Turkish navy, is described The New York Post as an Am ` Canada has a claim upon him, he was born in Nova Scotia, and first experience in sailing was on Great Lakes. At fourteen he bec cabin boy on a schooner, and pleased the captain and his wife well that they adopted him. At s teen he sailed from New York quartermaster of a schooner boa for the Pacific. At Manila the c tain and mates died of cholera, 135 nam was the only one on board w had studied navigation. He passe the requisite examination, became captain alt 17, and brought the sl home., Early in the nineties he was command of a steamship that sail from Tampico to New York, lad with hemp and silver. The sh struck a sunken wreck, and the Feller was smashed. Atter driftin about for twenty days, the ship w towed into Key West. Instead having her dry-docked, Buckn shifted all the cargo forward, so to elevate the stern, and attached t new propeller. An admiral of th United States navy who witnessed th work said it was one of the clever feats he had ever heard of. Later on he received an offer fro the Cramps to become their nautic expert. In this position he got in touch with naval officers. He w passed into the employment of th Government and commanded th Maine on her trial runs. When th Turkish cruiser Medpiidia was finis ed, he was sent to Turkey to tra her crew. The Sultan took a fancy him, and made his Naval Advise to the Porte, He grew steadily i favor. The story is that he once ren tiered a signal service to the Sultan A bomb loaded with tremendous) powerful explosive was thrown in the mounted escort, that surround the royal carriage. Scores of me and horses were killed, the groun was rent and torn, and nearby build ings felt the sheik; but .the Suit was unh ere, although his Barri was surrounded by the injured. Buck nam Pasha took his post by the ca riage step, with sword drawn, announced that if a hand laid on th� Sultan it would be lopped off. Sword in hand, he walked beside the riage all the way to the gates Yildiz. In an interview published in Th New York Post Mr. Lewis Nixon said "He is a splendid fellow--Buckn Pasha. And he is one of the friends I have. If yon knew him the way I do, you wouldn't be surprised at what he has done. I know some thing about his life, but if I knew' it all I could write a book that fo excitement and swing and dash would beat anythine that has ever been turned out. The last word I had from him was a postcard mailed in Lisbon He was then taking two mentinople. In the last year I haven't heard from him as much as I used to, and I must admit that I'm anxious about him -although, if anybody is capable of taking care of hur self, Bncknaut is. "He is fearless -absolutely. I'll tell, you a story to illustrate that: The terminal of the Pacific Steamship Co„ at Panama, is on the Island of Naos. Bucknam was the captain of Naos; that was his title. He had a good deal of difficulty in keeping whisky off the island, for the pango- men, the men who sail the little peri- gee, were skillful smugglers. I hap- pened to be with him the night he, broke up the practice for good and all. "We were sitting, smoking on the balcony of his house at Naos. It was a' moonlight night, and presently we made out a boat sneaking through the shadows of the floating wharf, apparently with the intention of landing something. There were three men in it. Bucknam observed their movements until he was convinced that they were whiskeesmugglers, and then he said 'Come along.' We went down to the wharf, and he began to take off his shoes, coat, and hat. 'What are you going to do? I asked. 'I'm going to teach those fellows that I mean what I say when I forbid whisky on the island," he replied. "By this time the boat was under- neath us. in the shadows of the wharf. Bucknam climbed the railing and dropped over right into the mid- dle of the three pingo-men. One of them he knocked overboard with his fist. Another came for him with a paddle, but Bucknam grabbed the paddle before the man could strike, and threw him over the side, too. That left' one smuggler to dean witb. and Bucknatn knocked hint endwise with his fists. For the next. few min- utes he was kept busy pushing the three men under water every time they tried to get eboard. "All the time I was tip on the wharf, shaking in my shoes, for any one of the three would have killed }� had tthoughhe h tin has me. When theta enough, Bueknasn punishedrowed around tt the landing stage, ethnbed out of tete boat. and kleked it tb•- ward the Smugglers. 'Now you eaadt go," he told 'them, 'but delft let me catch you trying to smuggle whisky into Naos again trying.

Troubled for Years With CONSTIPATION. Constipation or costiveness clogs the bowels, choices up the natural outlet of impure matter, and retains in the system the poisonous effete waste pro- ducts of nature, thereby causing Bilious- ness, headache, Piles, etc. Avoid this serious trouble by the use of MiLBURN'S LAXA UVEI PILLS They act on the bowels and promote their free and regular action, thus curing constipation and all the diseases which arise from it.

The annual hunt for the hair seal off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland is on. This is an industry which lasts only two months, but employs about 25 stout steamers and 4,000 men, whose home is the rock-ribbed coast of Newfoundland. These seal hunts have been prosecuted for hundreds of years. It yields a harvest of from $500,000 to $750,000 annually, and like the codfish in the same waters the seal has defied all attempts of exter- mination. The industry is one where men walk in daily and hourly danger of death. Within the last two years five ships were lost; the Leopard was driven ashore and 120 men narrowly escaped death; the Greenland broke her shaft and was carried seaward, her crew being rescued in the last extremity; the Grand Lake was crushed and went down, her crew being 36 hours on the floe before rescue came; the Pale tiler and the Walrus had a similar experience. Every ship that returned last year was more or less seriously wrecked, some of them so badly that they could scarcely limp into port. The loss of so many of the old-style boats enables the owners to replace them with ships of the modern type, and this year 'sees four of them in commission--- the Bonaventure, the Bellaventare, the Boethic and the Florizel. The first three are designed to serve as ordinary freighters during the year. The Florizel is a still more ambitious departure; she is a ship of 2,000 tons, with accommodations for 100 saloon and as many steerage pas- sengers, and intended to be run as a tourist craft between St. John's, Hali- fax, and New York, when not em- ployed in the seal fishery. She is fitted with wireless telegraph appara- tus. Hoist With His Own Petard. A certain gentleman„ who was somewhat officious, went one day to see a football match. While he was there his lynx -like eyes caught sight of some youths playing cards, and, being himself of an anti -gambling na- ture, he quietly informed a police- man of what he had seen. *Playing cards? No fear," replied the constable. "1 know them chaps very well; they are quite respect- able." "But," persisted his informant, "I saw them doing so, and when they saw I was looking they hid the cards, and I'll beta sovereign to a penny that that little chap with the bowler hat on has got them in his pocket." "'Want to bet, do you?" said the constable., with a twinkle in his eye; "and that board over there says, 'Bet- ting strictly prohibited!' So I think I'd better snake sure of one job to- day, end run got in for betting." And click went the cuffs.
