! DEATH OF TURK
I RELATED FDR
! FIRST TIME
■>
CONST A NT i NO P LK, June 12.
(Correspondence of the Associate
i Press.) — etiquette of the Turkish
I imperial court and Hip aversion ot (he
Ottoman to apeak of his household
land the female members thereof has
•o far prev iteii the di 1 ‘ II i-f tie*
suicide of ttie late Turkish heir ap
parent, Yussof Izzedin Kffendl, from
becoming generally known. The Aso
sociato l Press c iriespondent has just
learned them from a dignitary of the
prince's establishment.
Prince Yussof Izzedln had lor sev
lertil years been suffering from an in
'curable nervous affliction, a malady
which caused hint lo visit annually
the baths of lhirope, Including those
of linden, a suburb of Vienna, where
the mineral waters are said to have
remedial effects in such cases. As
the prince grew older the affliction
advanced and when the Kuropean war
broke out lie was g( nerallv considered
a very sick man. Despite this he
evinced the keenest interest in mili
tary affairs and undertook several
ours of inspection to the Gallipoli
terrain at the request of the Sultan,
his uncle. On one of these trips the
associated Press correspondent met
| him at the headquarters of Liman
von Sanders i’aeha. It was plain that
the prince was under some strain.
Ilis conversation was disjointed, al
though his remarks were in them
selves entirely rational.
On the evening on which he died.
Prince Yussof izzedin had retired at
his usual hour, going to Hip apart
ment ui ms!* of his wives. Here lie lay
down on a divan. A few minutes later
the woman heard him utter a slight
groan, and, looking at lilt* man, saw
tic was bleeding. Upon inquiry, the
— prince replied that the bleeding was
..... due to a slight accident, and then
! asked the woman to get him a fresh
A shirt. When she returned with this
j she found that the prince had locked
j the door behind her. She then rushed
& to rind one of the attendants. The
two returned to the door, hut the at
tendant confined his efforts to asking
the prince whether he could enter the
room. No answer came, however.
:v The woman and the attendant then
called upon the marshal of the house
hold, who promptly decided to force
the door. This proved difficult, as
yj the door was stout and had been well
•:5 barred from within. In the end it
had to be broken down piecemeal.
— Meanwhile the palace physician had
M been roused and his examination dis
! i closed that the arteries in the elbow
!! pit had been severed with a small
! ! sharp knife. This weapon was found
\ | between the upholstery of the divan
J | and the wall.
II PEDDLER SAVES GIRL WHEN
■ i
<> HE SEVERS BLAZING BRAIDS.
■ >
I . EVERETT. June 16. — An unknown
, , peddler saved the life of Miss Fran
ces Bryan, 17 year old high school
J | student, when he seized a knife and
] [ j cut off her burning braids yesterday.
•» j Her hair caught lire when she swung
her braids through an open fire. The
! peddler, who had just called at the
door, saw them, and when beating her
j hair failed to quench the flames, he
cut it off. He burned his hands se
verely. She bound his wounds, an*1
'he left without giving his name.

TRAVELS FORTY MILES
TO DELIVER ONE TELEGRAM.
SI FORT WAYNE, Ind., June 18. -
jf I "Take this message to J. C. J.," said
£ | the night clerk in charge of the West
ige . era Union office here to Charles
— | Schlegel, aged 17, messenger boy.
"He lives four miles south on the
Bluft'ton road, and don't come back |
until you deliver it."
Schlegel mounted his wheel about
6:30 o'clock. When he reached the
home of Mr. J-he learned that the
man had gone to Bluft'ton, twenty
•j: miles away. Having his instructions
to deliver the message before he re
ly turned, he started on south to Bluff
ly ton with the same determination that
enabled Lieutenant Rowan to carry
the message to Garcia. Schlegel got
•i: a lift front an auto driver, and after
delivering the message got back to
Jij the office before midnight.

MUNITION WORKERS ARE
KNOWN AS “CANARIES."
LONDON. June IT. — "Canaries”
has become the popular term for girl
munition workers, whose skin and
hair become yellow from working over
fumes in certain shell factories of
Lngland. Their patriotism is so
strong that they do not hesitate to
disfigure themselves for the sake of
the men behind the guns. “Canaries"
are also better paid than the girls who
do not run the same risks.
