SHE MET THE SULTAN.
But Wily Reschid Pasha Fooled the
Lady and the Monarch.
A certain Countess of Londonderry
wanted to meet tbe Sultan Mahmud
II., to whom uo European lady bad
been presented, but Lord Fonsonbj;,
the British ambassador, refused to
trifle with precedent. Lady London
derry then had a talk with Itesclild
rushit, the Turkish minister for for
eign affairs. The wily Iteschid, desir
ing to do bis best for ber ladyship,
uuide known to the sultnn that a per
son had arrived at Constantinople with
a wonderful collection of most valu
able jewelry for sale and ventured
humbly to suggest that bis imperial
majesty might like to see the gems.
The sultan was interested, and an in
terview wns arranged, but Reschid1
merely told Lady Londonderry that she
would be presented and that the sul
tan, having heard of the fame of her
jewelry, bad particularly requested
that she would put it all on when she
came. Tbe gratified lady did so.
On her arrive) at the palace Reschid
Pasha conducted Lady Londonderry
Into the presence of the sultan. Her
dress glittered .with diamonds, pearls,
turmioises and other precious stones.
"I'ekkei!" ("Good!") sakl tlie sultan
as Lady Londonderry courtesied. "She
has magnificent jewels."
Resehld (to the lady)—His majesty
graciously bids you welcome.
Lady Londonderry bowed and ex
pressed her thanks in French, tliu lan
guage used by Resclild.
Resclrid (interpreting)—She says she
has other jewelry, but could not put
on all.
Sultan—Ask her what Is the price of
that diamond necklace.
Reschid—Ills majesty inquires wheth
er this is your first visit to Constanti
nople?
Lady Londonderry—This is my first
visit, and I am delighted.
Resehld (to sultan)—She asks a mil
lion of piasters.
Sultan—That is too much.
Reschid (to Lady Londonderry)—IT is
majesty asks whether you have seen
the mosques. If not, he offers you a
firman.
Lady Londonderry expressed her
thanks.
Sultan—What price does she put on
that set of turquoises?
Reschid (to Lady Londonderry)—His
majesty says that perhaps you would
like to take a walk in the garden.
I.ady Londonderry expressed her
thanks and said she would like to see
the Imperial garden.
Reschid (to sultan)—She says 400,000 |
plasters.
Sultan—Take her away. I shall not»
give such prices.
Resehld (to Lady Londonderry)—Ills
majesty graciously expresses satisfac
tion at having made your acquaint
ance.
Lady Londonderry eourtcsied low ana
withdrew from his majesty's presence
to visit the garden with the amiable
and courteous Reschid, and afterward
she had a delightful story to tell to her
friends of the kindness with which the
sultan had received her.
Long prawn Out Elections.
Xo compliant with regard to undue
limitation of polling time was possible
in the old parliamentary days. The
danger was that polling might be pro
longed for a fortnight or a month.
Drastic action bring the poll to a
close once provoked a riot in the West
minster division of London. At the
general election that began on April
23, 1741, the two Westminster minis
terial candidates were on tli£ fifth day
of polling well ahead, but an opposi
tion party of electors approaching the
hustings in great force, the high bailiff
(who favored the ministerialists) de
clared that he feared a riot and closed
the poll. The baffled voters rioted and
the military were called out The high
bailiff had afterward to apologize on
his knees to the speaker and pay a
heavy fine.
HUN BACK
FROM WHITE
The steamer Nasutlin arrived
shortly before 110011 today from Don
jek with tweuty-five passengers, in
cluding Billy James, Mrs. James
and Nols Nelson, comprising the
discoverers of the Chisana. Gold
brought out aggregates something
near $8,000 says the Dawson News
of September 23rd.
The full list of passengers on
the Nasutlin follows:
Thomas W. O'Brien, L. Stanley,
J. C. Griffith, Charles Bush, C.
Nebe, T. Pinkiet, George Cordoroy,
P \V. Peterson, F. Short, W. E.
McKinney, J. A. West, J. A. West,
Jr.; C. Olsen, J. R. Croto, N. P.
Nelson, W. A. James, Mrs. James
J. F. Touorau, G. Greenlow, Jack
Horn, K. Schuts, P. Mctfuire, J.
Plumb.
Immediately after the gold was
received on the Nasutliu today, it
was takeu to the bank, and the
public has not yet been invited to
gaze upon it. The James party is
staying at the Prospector. It is the
intention of the party to remain her
a few days, and than go to the
coast for the winter. Mrs. James
says that, having spent three years
in the upper White country, she
hopes to spend part of the winter
in California. Billy Johnson, who
is one of the partners iu the James
properties, remained on Bonanza
for the winter. Supplies for the
party are at Donjek, and will be
treighte-J uo to the camp during the
winter.
Charley Bush, George Cordoroy,
Charles Drake, Lysle Robinson and
Kay Heydon, who went in some tim
ago, came out today, and report
having secured ground in the heart
of the camp, and plan to go back
to work. Charley Bush is pleased
with the outlook. He praises the
government for cutting the trail
rom Donjek to Snag, which, he
says, can now be crossed dry shod
whereas, when he went up it was
deep with mud.
The Bush party left the diggings
September 4 It was then freezing
hard there. Bush and partners wer
out of grub two days on the wav
down.
A1 Schultz and Dud McKinney
who went to the strike ahead of
all ethers this spring, got back to
day. "Grif" Griffith, formerly with
the N. A. T. & T., is among the
arrivals.
The returning argonauts repor
the Nasutliu made Donjek with al
her cargo, including the sawmil
taken up by Dawson men. The
mill has not yet been set up when
rue steamer left. The river was
very low. The Nasutlin left Don
jek-three days ago, and Captain
Gardner and others of the boat are
receiving much praise for comin.
cut so successfully at this late
date.
The Splegatus had several more
days' work to perform in getting
her freight to Donjek when the
Nasutlin passed Tho Birches two
days ago.
Capt. Cromarty is pilot of the Na
sutlin. William Donnewerth, of
