will soon. resume their peaceful voila -
tions.
The Times publishes a despatch from
Constantinople saying the Armenians
who are holding Zeitoun against the
Turks have informed the Consuls who
are attempting to bring about a peace-
able surrender of that town that they
are willing to surrender. their war
wea.pons if allowed to retain the hunt-
ing weapons that they habitually carry.
They also demand the appointment of
a Christian Government and executive.
A despatch to the United Press from
Constantinople says the negotiations
for the surrender of Zeitoun, which
place is held by the Armenians, to the
Turkish authorities continue. The
foreign. Consuls at Zeitoun have in-
formed the beleaguered Armenians
that their principal purpose in visiting
Zeitoun is to watcli the course of
events, and that they are unable to
guarantee the safety of the Zietounlis
in any conditions. The Turkish troops
besieging the town are mainly com-
posed of reserves. They are ill -fed and
many of them are deserting. The
main body of the Turks have retreat-
ed to Barash. The. only article of pro-
visions lacked by the beleaguered Ar-
menians is salt.

er. The mother remonstrated and he
struck the little one in the face and
then threw it against the wall, after
which he turned on Mrs. Deitz and beat
her. Constable Wood went to the Delta

the family in a distressing condition.

STRAINED RELATIONS. '
Lewis to Restore tiro Priendsium Between
Great Britain stud Germany.
A despatch from London says :-A
serious effort has been begun by It-
aly, supported. by Austria, to restore
the friendship between Great Britain
and Germany which was greatly strain-
ed by Emperor William's message to
President Kruger of the South African
Republic. The effort has obtained the
active approval of the Queen, but does
not eeem to be appreciated by Lord
tearbouxy. Count Nigra, the Italian
Ambassador to Austria, after his re-
cent visit to Rome received instructions
from Signor Crispito arrange for con-
certed pressure from Rome and Vie.nna
upon Berne and London to bring about
the end de,sired. These instructions re-
sulted in Austrian and Italian commun-
ications being ;tent to Berlin, 'in which
was pointed out the danger to the tri-
ple allianee arising from the breach be-
tween Germany and Great. Britain, es- :
peeially as regards a possible entente
hetween the latter country and Rus- •
sia. It is also understood that Signor
Crispi made special representations to
Lord Salisbury on the continuance of
the Anglo -Italian agreement for naval
co-operation in the Mediterranean in the
event of developments in the East. If
the British view of these negotiations .
ts accurate. Berlin has shown a readi-
ness to respond to the desires of her al -1
lies, and woulhl cease he hostile policy
towards Great Britain, but so far as
the latter is concerned the die is cast. i
The entente with Russia bas gone too
far. 1.7nlese the German Government 1
renounces its South African schemes,
supports Great Britain. itt Egypt, and
generally reverses its recent line of
diplomatic enmity, no return of eor-;
diality in the Anglo -German relations I
will be possible.
MADRID IN A PANIC.
_-
Bursting of an Insmenie Aerelite-Great
Consternation in Madrid -A Great Beal
of Property Injured.
A despatch from Madrid says :-An
immense aerolite exploded above this;
city at 9.30 a. me on Monday. There!
was a vivid glare of light and. a loud!.
report, followed by a general panic. All'
the buildings were shaken, and many
windows were shattered. According to '
the officials of the Madrid Observatory,
the explosion occurred twenty miles
above the earth. The force of the ex- '
plosion was felt for several kilometers ,
around. this city, and the concussion
was so severe that the partition walls
of the United. Stoles Legation collaps-
ed, and nearly all the windows of that
building were broken.
The sun was shining clearly at the
time of the explosion, and the only
i
thing visible n the sky was a white ,
cloud, bordered with red, which was
travelling rapidly along the heavens,
leaving behind it a train of fine white
dust. The aeralite is thought to have
been at a height of about ten miles
above the city when. it burst. Much
damage was done by the force of the
concussiott to walls and windows
throughout the city. When. the ex-
plosion took place the populace believ-
ed that it .was an earthquake or a
sign of Divine wrath. IVIany of them
threw themselves on their feces wher-
ever they ha.ppened to be at the time
and supplicated. the Virgin to have
mercy taper>. them. This was no in-
frecitient sight, even ba the most crowd-
ed thoroughfares, even after the ex-
citement had subsided. Many of the
mere eupe,rstitious still believe that the
phenomenon woe sent as a warning por-
tending some dire ealamity. to Spain.
The success of the insurgent armies in
Cuba was the first thought to occur to
rnany of these superstitious persons.
Many injuries resulted from the panie
which broke out amongst the people,
and from the frantic attempts made to
escape from the factories and schools. 1

Saved by a Shot.
Sir George Yule, of the Indian Civil
Service, was a mild sweet -natured man,
but a "mighty hunter," who had kill-
ed hundreds of boars, and shot tigers
on foot and from horse and elephant.
Sir Edward Braddon tells of Sir George's
narrow escape from death in an en-
counter with a tiger.
He was standing outside of a jungle
from which a tiger was being driven
by beaters. The tiger came from the
juegle within a few feet of the spot
where Yule stood and rushed at him.
He had only time to bring his rifle up
to his hip and fire as the beast sprang
upon him, knocking him to the ground,
! smashingin his sun -helmet and tear-
ing his shoulder and chest.
The tiger was dead. when it reached
the ground, killed by the chance shot
so coolly fired.

A NEW JOHANNESBERG.
The Proposed Creation of a Town Cutler
British Protection in Rhodesia -Mr.
Cecil Rhodes is Sanguine.
despatch from London says: -The
Times has an article on the plans of Mr.
Cecil. Rhodes in South Africa, of which
it says :-"The first chapter is the
creation under a British administration
of a British Johatmesbarg in Rhodesia.
Mr. Rhodes believes that the mineral
wealth of Rhodesia justifies a reason. -
able hope that within five years the
population of Rhodesia will exceed. that
of the existing Uitlander population of
the Transvaal. In addition to splendid
climatic advantages, experts believe
that the plateaus of lilashonaland and.
Matabeleland are highly mineralized.
Coal exists in enormous cmantities, and
it is supposed that there is gold. It is
also understood that Mr. Rhodes' project
infamies an intention to . lead the way by -
putting the bulk of his own large for-
tune into the local enterpriees, and also
to encourage the cultivation of wool,
coffee, tea, aed spice, and possibly cot-
ton."
The Times says in an editorial on Mr.
Rhocles'plank 'The foregoing gran-
diose scheme rests wholly upon the
condition that gold can be found. If
t it fails, the scheme must fail too."
