THE
RULER OF TURKEY
FEW MEN ALIVE WHO HAVE
BEEN 80 MALIGNED.
Mistrust of Subjects - Some Pecu-
liar Stories Concerning
the Sultan.
There is probably few Hien alive
to -day who have been more malign-
ed than has Abdul Hamid, the Sul-
tan of Turkey; yet, in spite of his
uncuviable reputation he has con-
tinued to sit on his perilous throne
fur over thirty years, says a writer
in M.A.P. Abdul Hamid is one of
the strangest mixtures of bravery
and cowardice, cunning and st-
plicsim-
plicityty that it is possible to imagine,
and 80 much has been written and
said about him that to obtain any-
thing like an accurate idea of his
real character is almost impossible.
Like most autocratic Monarchs he
goes about in hourly dread of as-
sassination, and it is said that bo
spends as much as £180 a night to
have his bedroom securely guard-
ed.
The Sultan's mistrust of his sub-
jects has sometimes led to curi-
ous results. A few years ago he
was on his way to the mosque,
when ho suddenly noticed that some
new telegraph wires had been
stretched across the roadway. No
one to this day knows what ho
thought would happen, but he gave
orders for the royal procession to
halt, and messengers were sent off
post-haste to the telegraph com-
pany to fetch men to cut down the
wires. After considerable delay
this was actually done. and then the
Sultan and his retinue proceeded
on their way. Not content with
merely having the wires destroyed.
Abdul Ramie] also commanded that
they were on no account to be re-
placed.
"ONLY MY VOICE."
Tho Sultan's love of ruling was
once exemplified in an extraordin-
ary manner. He had purchased a
parrot, of which he grew very fund,
and he spent tnauy hours in teach-
ing it, to speak. Tho bird was an
apt pupil, and learned to irritate its
august master's voice to perfection.
One day the parrot was (ranging in
its cage in the Sultan's private
apartment, when it suddenly called
out the name of his Majesty's fav-
orite attendant. The latter canto
At the sumnoam, but Abdul Manuel
flew into a towering passion. 'Tear-
ing the unfurtututtc bird from its
cage he killed it on the spot ; then,
turning to the frightened servant,
he said : "Understand that in fu-
ture oaly my voice shall commas 1
here"'
lint Abdul Ilamid has n softer
and altogether nobler side 10 lyjs
character, and those who know• hent
intimately have spoken eloquently
of his kindness. His own dread of
physical pain hes made him
thoughtful of the welfare of others,
and he has had a hospital built
which is kept up entirely at his own
expense. This hospital is princi-
pally for the use of women and chil-
dren. but anyone is eligible for ad-
mission, and every patient is treat-
ed entirely free of charge. Even
f• reigners and strangers are ndmit-
ted, and the whole concern is run
sin the most- up-to-date lines.
DIPLOMACY.
The Sultan is a born diplomat,
although occasionally his diplomacy
is hardly comfortable with English
ideas. The story is told of a cer-
tain Ambassador who while walking
in the streets of Constantinople saw
one of his Majesty's closed carri-
ages, closely guarded from the pry-
ing eyes of the populace. The Am-
bassador was indiscreet enough to
endeavor to peep into this vehicle,
but henick{ • repented of his folly
1
q � p 1 ty
when he received a stinging blow
t f the face from an attendant. Mad
with rage, he demanded an audi-
ence of Abdul Hamid, which was
granted. After listening quietly to
the Ambassador's tale of woe the
Sultan smiled and said :-"I have
carefully considered your case, and
see exactly how the matter stands.
You are, of course, a gentleman,
and you would never have commit-
ted such n breach of good manners
as you allege took place; therefore,
your Excellency, no attendant
could possibly have struck you. Tho
whole affair must bo a product of
your fancy. Let us then dismiss
it." What the Ambassador thought
has not been recorded.
