I was fortunate in being pres- ent Friday morning, the Moslem Sabbath, when there were 600 or more worshipers present, dressed in all the colors of the rainbow; and seated in tailor fashion in parallel rows on the carpeted floor. The priests read and chanted much the same as in the Catholic service, but the worshipers went through many genuflex- tons, risinz, kneeling, touching the face to the floor and the like. The presence of so many people gives one a much more cheerful impres- sion ofthe vast place than St. Peter's, where immense space was merely dotted here andthere with a stroiling tourist or a black robed priest. Tradition says that when the city was cap- tured. a crowd of tugitives took refuge in the eburch: they were not disturved until the vic- torlous Suitan, Mahomet II., rode inthrough the great doorw h lowed by ag stamped ils bioody hand on one of the pillars and cried: “There is no God but God, and Ma- | howet is his prophet.” and then began the mas- | sacreand pillage. There is now shown a rough outline of a hand on one of the pillars, but Ma- homet must have been more than a Samson to have accomplished it. AN UNDERGROUND Passac From the mosque to the seraglio ts but a few moments’ walk; in fact, the two are connected nean passaze, by which the sultan could attend service secretly, he having a closed pavillion inthe mosque. The serazlio is now | deserted, being used as barracks, museum and mint. The grounds have been allowed to ran to ruin, and but little beauty remains—a rail- road track passes through them. There are many beautiful views and shaded walks, but the buildings are ugly and of all shapes and sizes. One of them has a roof consisting of a double | row of small domes, each one surmounted by a presenting the appearance of a row of immense wine bottles projecting out of amammoth box. THE SUBLIME PORTE, the gateway which gives the Ottoman empire its familiar name, is the entrance to the former offices of the grand vizier and pachas, forming 's cabinet. Its Turkish name is Pacha Capousson or Gate of the Pachas. Another point of great interest, and one which isnot generally known, is the old wall, or, rather, three walls of old Constantinople, each ten feet thick, with towers at frequent intervals for ad- ditional defense. At the end nearest the sea is astrong fortress having seven towers, and it is called by that name. The walls are still ina very good state of preservation, although at several places they have been nearly destroyed mother, who sold them to the highest bidder for building purposes. The foreign ambassadors interfered, however, and stopped the vandalism, and in a short time they could be made strong encugh to resist another attack from the armies and Weapons of the fifteenth century. THE BAZAARS disappointed me very much after those of Cairo. All the stores are in an tmmense building, coy- ering as much space as a smnall town, with a labarynth of streets, alleys, by-ways, and each particular kind of store has its own quarter, where nothing but its own specialty can be bought. To be sure it is better arranged, and far more convenient, but it has very little of the picturesqueness and oriental flavor which is the great beauty of Cairo. These may be much more valuable and of greater variety, but tne whole thingis too open an imitation of Euro} style to be pleasing after seeing the ather; but | eyening accompanied by his staff.

From thé bridge we took a steamer for A TRIP UP THE BOSPHORUS, the lower atter-part of which was occupled by Turkish ladies and guarded bya thick screen and two fierce looking walking arsenals, who bade us go on the upper deck with the captain. Acurrent of two to four miles an hour runs through the Bosphorus, so we kept close to the European shore on the way up. Only in pas- sing the sultan’s palace of Dolgma Batche, near which we anchored, they keep well out in’ mid- stream, as it would be at the peril of his life that a captain would allow the odor of smoke or a particle of soot to defile its white and beau- tiful walls. From there until near the entrance to the Black Sea it is a constant succession of palaces -and villas, yellow, blue and purple, seeming to float on the water, latticed galleries hangingmover it and marble steps leading down into It. The prettiest place is where it opens out into a lake, surrounded with marvels which make it seein to be a dre and not reality. On the European shore upon the slopes of a hill covered with trees and dotted with villas lies a large town of all the colors of the spec- tram. On the opposite shore rises an enormous green pyramid, near whose foot is the fairy-like palace of Osman Pasha, the brave defender of Pleyna; ahead is the Black sea, the hills at its entrance looking grim and forbidding. The sea is appropriately nemed—it tooks like a blot of ink, or a splotch of paint on a beautiful picture. Behind are two old walled fortresses built by the Genoese centuries ago, but now half-hidden by ivy; from this point the Bosphorous widens to the sea, the hills become more and more barren and the villas disappear, there being but a tew small villages visible. The steamer stopped at the last of these—Kowak—from which we climbed to an old ruined tower on an adjacent hill and a fine view of the Black sea. The Admiral was received with great consid- eration by the Sultan, and dined with him one played for the Sultan one night and he was so much pleased with the piccolo player that he desired him for an Instructor for his children, 80 the admiral allowed him to resign, when he was immediately made a captain in the Turkish army, while the other bandamen received pres- ents of shirt studs. Just as we were leaving, the grand chamberlain, candlestick and a lot of others, covered with gold lace, came on board and presented the admiral with a diamond- studded gold snuff box; a yery pretty one it is, but ie will have to wait awhile to bette eee A Cattle Drive. Georze Pomeroy Keese, in Harper's Magazine. With the early starting of the grass in the spring the cattle areon the trail. They have the road brand by which the present owner is. known, and are headed northward for their new and distant home. A thousand miles they will travel before they reach thelr destination, and in the windings of the road, and in the course which many a wayward steer will take, no doubt, much more. If all goes well, and no mishaps occur, the end may be reached in three months’ time, or about the middle of July. In the hands of a careful foreman they will come through with but little loss in flesh and numbers. The word “drive” isa misnomer as applied to the trail. It Is exactly this which should not be done. Cattle once gathered, and headed in the direction of their long journey, should be al- lowed to “drift” rather than be urged. Walking as they feed. they will accomplish their twelve or fifteen miles a day with but little exertion to themselves, and with very much less care and anxiety on the part of theherder. This remark is especially applicable to the handling of bect herds and to irough Texans” likewise, with the | qualification that there are “drags” to every herd which need urging to keep them up to the mark; and it is among these last that the losses, if any, occur. Allexcitement ofthe animals isto be avoided, and the dangers of a stampede are lessened in proportion as the cattle are han- died with gentleness and discretion. When a panic does arise, it is then that the cow-boy himselt must be equal to the situation, and ride fearlessly to turn the flank of the flying beasts. No fear of a charge of the long horns must then affect him, but, putting his “broncho™ on his. mettle, he must ride hard and ride long until the column is headed and the herd once more brought into line. A successful stampede within a hundred miles of the starting point may re- sult in the return of the animals to their native heath—or, farther on, to their being scattered abroad upon the plains, not all to be found for ‘ks, if ever. e are several distinct tralls across the lains, and the pathways are as distinct! narked as aroad could be, pressed by the hoofs of thousands for years past. The essentials of grass and water are to becon- sidered ina region none too well supplied with | these requisites, and the possibilities of fencing and occupation in districts which are being rapidly redeemed from their original state. The raids of hostile Indians no longer enter into the question, and the chancesare that the full quota of the winter's purchase will be safely delivered on the range within afew days-of the expected time. If this is not later than the first of August, the new arrivals will have ample time to become wonted to their new home, and to settle down in a ceful frame of mind, taking on all the flesh possible before the advent of the wintry blasts. The count and the branding over. the cattle are distributed upon the range, and told toshift for themselves. If the grass vell cured and abundant, they will get in fine condition in three months’ time, and be well able to stand the severe cold to follow. If.on the other hand, they do not reach their destination until late in the fall, they are quite apt to be thin in flesh, and if a severe winter comes on, much loss will ensue. It is in such cases that the large per- centage of loss 1s reported in the returns after a period of heavy storms. Ten per cent, or even more, of loss may have to be charged against a herd of “through” cattle in this condition, while two per cent will fully cover the loss on a well-located range occu- pied by cattle which have been on the same & year our more. As previously _ stated, the expense of herding a “bunch” of cattle is one dollar per head annually, which includes all charges after they are turned loose upon the range until they are delivered as “beeyes” at the nearest railroad shipping point. If the owner is wise, he will not allow a hoof to be gathered until it has been two years wintered. The temp- tation is great. when prices are high and cattle are in good demand, to ship steers that have been only one year upon the range. ‘This is a mistake, as the second year is the one that tells both in the weight and quality of the beef; and as to age, no steer reaches maturity until he is | four years old. High rates, however, have in- duced many shipments during the past two years, and the gathering of beeves has been much closer than formerly. — A DUEL IN A CHURCH. How the Minister’s Daughter Assisted Her Lover to Slay His Rival. A desperate shooting affray between two members broke up the services at the Baptist church of a settlement six miles east of Hot Springs, Ark., last Sunday. Two young men, named Lem Dishowan and Peter Lewis, attend- ed church with the avowed purpose of taking home the minister’s young daughter, and when Lewis moved from his own into the minister's family pew, while the sermon was in progress, Dishowan drew his revolver and opened fire upon him. Lewis returned the fire, and the congregation made rapid exit by way of doors and windows. Neither was hurt, and, both being disarmed, they agreed to go into the woods and fight it out with fists. Before they started, the girl who was the cause of the fight desired to speak privately with Lewis for a moment, which was granted. While the congregation were awaiting the result of the fist fight a pistol shot was heard from the direction of the scene of conflict. The congregation hurried to the spot and found Dishowan lying on the ground dying from a shot through the lungs. He sald that he was getting the better of Lewis, when the latter drew a Derringer quickly from his boot-leg and shot him. The girl had placed the weapon there during her brief conference with Reais oe before the fight. Lewis may be lynched. The Shooting of Lawyer Drake.

Some of the Causes for Its Being So Large in Suuumer, From the N. ¥. Times, 17th, A small audience was seattered around on the benches in one of the lecture rooms of the Col- jeg: ot Physicians and Surgeons, at 4th avenue and 23d street, last night, when the New York County Medical association held its meeting. «The Summer Diarrhea of Infants,” a paper by Dr. J. Lewis Smith, was begun by statistics which showed that nine times as many children died from this malady in the five summer months, including May and September. as in the other seven. Of the total deaths of children In the city 88 per cent were due to this malady, and 9 per cent of the victims were under five years, The same is practically trne, Dr. Smith sald, in other cities here and in Europe. The disease does not extend to country districts to any extent. Hence its prevalence is not due to atmospheric heat entirely, since this Is almost the same in country and in town, but to nox- jous efflavia in addition. and the gases which they impart to the air. The speaker here men- tioned the frightful filth in the city during the summer months, which is encouraged by large families being crowded Into such close quarters. Another cause of death, he continued. was in the nutrition of infants, feeding by bottle, sub- stituting cow’s milk for human milk, feeding at table and overtaxing digestive powers. The mother's milk was, of course, the best, and cow miik the best substitute. When cow milk was to be used, it should always be peptonized in small quantities. It isa popular mistaken be- liet, he declared, that dentation or teething has anything to do with diarrheg. This belief caused great trouble, as the advance of the diarrhea is very slow at first, and mothers suppose that their children’s allment is due to teething and learn their mistake only when emaciation be- gins. The speaker believed that the’ discase Was inflammatory. The curatives were good food first, mother’s milk, or peptonized cow milk, or if farinaceous food be used. wheat boiled to aid digestion; in addition, pure air and light medicine to check the diarrhea. Dr. H. A. Pooles, of Goshen, next took up the subject and spoke of the importance of pure milk. The death-roll from this disease decreased 3,664 In 1883, when the attack of the previous year against adulterated milk had resulted in a reduction of the amount of that article sold from 200,000 quarts a day to 100,000. The work was not yet done, he declared, and it was the dut; of every physician to see to the purity of hie patient's milk. Good milk could be gotten within four hours of New York, yet the dealers brought it from the extreme portion of the states where they could get it cheapest. The conseguence was that it reached consumers 48 to 54 hours after being drawn trom the cow, even it it had not passed through adulterating processes. Prof. Leeds, of Stevens Institute, said that there were no printed statistics as to the purity of water, yery few tacts concerning the purity or fwpurity of the atmosphere, and but little known of the chemical conetituents of human or cow milk. He had found, to his astonish- ment, rain water much more impure than the water in streams. This was due to the scrub- bing process which it underwent in falling chrougt an imppre atmosphere, Human milk contains, he xald, 43¢ pet cent of fat, and cow milk 814; of albuminotdal substance 2 per cent and cow milk about 4 per cent. ae aes. EFFORTS TO RECOVER A CHILD. Trouble Over an Adopted Infant—A Scheme to Abduct it Frustrated. A telegram from Elmira, N. Y., June 17, says: L. R. Browning, postmaster at Rome, Bradford county, Pa., adopted from Mrs. Emma Lee, at Nichols, N. Y., last summer, a two-year-old child which Mrs. Lee safd wasan orphan. In April Mrs. Lee called on Mr. Browning in Rome, in company with E. 8 Butterfield, a Syracuse lawyer. The lawyer served a paper on Mr. Browning which purported to be a power-of-at- torney from Mrs. eae of Dixon, Ill., au- thorizing Mrs. Lee to e possession of the child. Mrs. Sterling signed the document as mother of the child. Mr. Browning refused to de- liver up the Infant, and the matter was carried into the courts. Judge Moran decided in favor of Mr. Browning. Mrs. Sterling was formerly Mies Dora Passmore, and an adopted daughter of the late Judge Passmore, of Bradtord county. He died four years ago, when Dora was 24 years old. She remained In Bradford county a year or two and then mysteriously disappeared. Nothing had ever been heard of her since. She had left her child with Mr. 1 who promised to find a good home for it. She then went west, where she married well. A few days after the decision Henry Dascomb, of Athens, Pa., went to Rome and confided to a friend there that he and John Haddock had been hired by Mrs. Lee to abduct the Browning child and deliver it to her at Waverly. The friend in- formed Mr. Browning of the plot, and, although an attempt was made to carry it out, it was de- feated. The police authorities of Waverly now are sceking Mra. Lee, but at whose Instance, or on what charge, is not known, as it is under- stood that Mr. Browning pad her a large sum to give bonds not to molest the child again. It 1s reported that her anxiety to regain posseasion of the chifd was to further a gigantic black- mailing scheme which would involve prominent. families, and that an agent forced Mrs. Sterling to sign the power of attorney, although it re- quired her to confess the maternity of the cuild, by threats of revealing its existence to her hus- band. That secret is now known to him, and it is believed that it is through his Investigations peas ae: Lee will be arrested if she can be found. ——__—_—-e2____ Icebergs in the Ocean Lanes. From the New York Herald. It Is worth while for commanders of European steamships to note that the reports of vessels lately arrived from Europe indicate the persis- tent movement of large icebergs to extreme southerly and easterly limits. The steamer Justitia on the 6th ifist. passed “‘an Immense ice- berg” In latitude 42 deg. 15 min. north, longi- tude 48 deg. 4 min. west. The City of Berlin five days later passed two icebergs in almost pre- Giscly the same latitude and a few miles further west. The General Werder also about the same time met two icebergs in north latitude 42 deg. 39 min., longitude 48 deg. 44 min. west. Although drift ice is often seen on the Atlan- tic further south and east than these positions, and huge icebergs frequently drift further south than the latitudes here given, large icebergs in so easterly and southerly positions are more rarely recorded. It would seem, therefore, that the force of the arctic stream is not abated, but that its glacial discharge is as voluminous as it was a month ago. The high barometer waves which haye recently crossed the continent and Jauuched themselves off the Newfoundland coast have been attended by northwesterly winds, powerful enough on the ocean to propel tall icebergs unusually far to the southeastward. No alteration of these conditions can be ex- pected until the Interior of British America feels the full force of the summer sun and the air pressure is reduced, when the indraught from the heated continent will produce more southerly winds on the Newfoundland banks. The limits reached by the icebergs lately re- ported are more noteworthy because they are so unpleasantly near the ‘steamer lanes” and the routes selected as comparatively free from ice.

Andina ait of cases she can-grab.—Drake's Trav- eler's Magazine. i. ata Iwishthat my readers might enjoy, what I have often enjoyed, the glorious view, which at the time ot the inundation Is peculiarly fascina- ting, from the summit of the mountains which bound the valley of the Nile on the eastern side. Let me try to lead you there, in fancy at least. Tt is an excursion which amply repays any one who undertakes it. ° At other times of the year the valley of the Nile, seen from this height, resembles a green and blooming garden. Waving corn fields, deeply green clover meadows, high-grown In- dian corn and beans, sugar cane and cotton plantations, cover nate inch of cultivated ground, interspersed with groups of paim-trees and groves of acacias,in the midst of which the villages nestle. Far away to westward the hills ot the Libyan desert frame the picture, and the pyramids of Ghizeh stand out in bold profile against the eky. If so be that the sun is setting behind them at the time that your eye is resting on this picture, you will enjoy a symphony of color such as once seen is never forgotten. The blue-green tints ot the valley meet and blend with the warm browns and ochres of the dezert, and through almost purple tints these again are united with and attuned to the deep blue of the sky. The grand simplicity of subject, combined with the—I might say classic—harmony of lines and the marvelous blending of colors which go to make up the Egyptian landscape, can not but fascinate every artist, and all who have once seen and studied it are drawn irresistibly again | and again to the deeper study of these problems ofart. At the moment that I have selected for | introducing this picture to myreaders the waters of the Nile, which at other times hemmed in by the high shores, only resemble a silyer ribbon winding in and out among the n fields, and glancing here and there asthe sunlight fails upon it—these waters cover all, and the vast ee resembles an extensive lake. The villages, uilt on more elevated ground, and protected by high dikes, peep out of the vast expanse of water like islands In the sea. The palms. whose bluish-green feathery crowns are already bur- dened with heavy tassels of dates, red or brown or yellow, are more than halfway up thelr grace- ful stems in water. Numberless boats and small craft, with their picturesque lateen-salls, look- ing like sea-gulls_on the wing, skim the water, speeding before the north wind, which at this season blows steadily and strongly, and sends them southward heavily laden witi produce of the north, whence they return with cargoes of ivory, ostrich feathers, gum-arabic, and, alas! only too often, with slaves. This fs the time at which, In Cairo. a most cu- rious and interesting fete is celebrated, one which hag its orlzin in a heathen custom, name- ly, the so-called “breaking through of the Nile,” and takes place when the Nile has reached a certain height. A canal traverses Cairo from east to west. This canal isclosed. when the inundation begins, at the Junction with the Nile, by a solid and well-made dike, and remains thus closed until the water-mark shall have reached a desired point. The rupture of this dike, which admits the water Into the city, is accompanied by festiv- itives in which all classes of the population share. Already, in the afternoon, and still more in the evening, of the day preceding the feast. numbers of dahabeeyahe—a kind of veseel found only on the Nile, and best described as @ floating dwelling combining great comfort with ship-like com is and regard for jpace—are seen on ile approaching the feet where the canal and river meet, and e1 Q there drop their anchors, while others continue tacking about. Some of these dahabeeyahs are the private property of residents of Caifo, who, with their families, spend this night on board; others are chartered for the occasion by a party who disperse, as best saite their taste, for the nlght—some retiring to the di- vans In the airy saloons, others Pye the deck, with its bright spectacle of illumination on all sides, for in the rigging of all these boats the colored lamps are twinkling and re- flecting their light in the water. One large boat among the many catches the eye In particular; it is that called “Akabeh” by the Arabs—painted in all the colors of the rain- bow, its masts and rigging decked with count- lesa lamps and flags. This boat leaves the har- bor of Boolak, near Cairo, in the afternoon (and by Poying @ small sum one can obtain a paseage), and sails on till itreaches the isle of Rhodda, quite near to which is the spot at which the fes- tivities of that night are to take place. Here it is made tast by heavy cables, and prepares to re- main till the morrow. On the deck Is an awning under which the Passengers can while away, with friendly ciga- rette and cooling sherbet,the intervening hours. | In the Imagination of the Egyptians of to-day this boat represents the esplendid vessel on which, In ancient times, the “Bride of the Nile” (‘‘Aruseh”), a maiden, beautiful and of noble birth, was brought annually as a sacrifice to the god, and who, clothed in bridal array. was doomed to awatery grave. * * * ® All Orientals, and the Egyptian is no excep- tion to the rule, like to have their merry-makings at night. Andthey are right. The intense heat of the day is over; the sun, with its rays and its glare, no longer wearles eyes and nerves; the glorious starlit sky—such a sky as only the far East can show—spreads its canopy overall; a soft, balmy breeze comes gently through the valley, and blows up-stream, eat et the cool but never cold atmosphere of the Mediterranean, whose moisture and briny odors have been mod- ified by the long journey it had to make before reaching the inland capital. This is the time, above all others, at which the river and its shores become the scene of animated life. At regular intervals the cannon boom, for without smell of powder, much shouting and screaming, and oft-repeated fireworks, the proper hollday mood is wanting. Legions of small boats, like midges gibvoine over the wate@ move about in all directions as connecting links between the large, firmly anchoted vessels. From some one point the sound of the “tara- booka” is heard, and to its monotonous rhyth- mic accompaniment female singers warble their slow and melancholy ditties, ending generally ina chromatic scale. From another side the sound of castanets meets our ears—a sure sign that here the oft-mentioned and far-tamed, though certainly not admirable, dancing-girls are in full performance. Along the shore hun- dreds of tents are erected, lighted, according to their rank and degree in the social scale, either by most primitive little oil-lamps, or, progress- ing upward, most luxurious colored lanterns. In these booths refreshments of all kinds, but_ mostly coffee and sherbet, are to be had; and here one finds the sedate and well-to-do pater- | familias and the youthful though independent | donkey driver side by side, smoking. The en- tertainment consists in listening to ballad sing- ers, comic actors, reciters of Koran verses and romances; and all these artists manage to col lect an ample publicaround them, and one which | appreciative for whatever is offered it. Add to | all this constant, endless screaming and shout- ing, a maze of human forms ever rolling and unrolling itself, and my readers will be able to form some idea ot what are the elements that 0 to compose every Arab festivity, and so also this “feast of the Nile.” Shortly after midnight the Arabs begin their work at the dike. To the accompaniment of a monotonous strain they dig away valiantly. so that at daybreak only a thin wall of earth re- mains as partition between them and the mighty flood beyond. “At rise of sun the khedive (yice- roy), surrounded by the grandees of his realm, all in uniforms and gold lace, arrives; he takes his stand in a tent prepared for him, and which commands the best possible view of all that goes on. A secretary takes a place at his side, and Is prepared to take notes of this most im- portant act, testifying that the Nile has reached the necessary height for bursting the dike, and for the land tax on all the fellah to begin its work. This document Is sent to Constantinople the moment the festivities are at an end. Three hundred trains, carrying thirty thous- and passengers, now enter and depart fronrthe Broad street atation in Philadelphia every day. The number will soon be increased to three hundred and twenty trains to accommodate the summer travel.
