Aitr Rift Conalituliottal Forces Are Within Sight of Capital 400 Dead at Adana. Constantinople, April 21. - The most important feature of the situa- tion in the Turkish capital yesterday was the report that Sultan Abdul- Hamid had abdicated. It caused the greatest excitement in the lobbies of parliament and spread rapidly throughout the city. A rumor of the flight of the sultan on a warship fel: lowed closely on that of his abdica- tion, but eeither could be confirmed. Large crowds gathered at the British embassy, where, other reports had it, the sultan had taken refuge, and there were also scores of inquiries at the Russian embassy concerning the truth of the rumor that his majesty was under the protection of Russia, Abdication is Certaln. At both of these embassies all knowledge of the sultana movements was denied, and the Turkish foreign office also gave a strong dental to all these rumors. The abdication of Abdul Harnid, however, appears to be not improbable, and that within a day or two. The Constitutionalists may accept as his successor Prince PATENTS.

RUSSIAN NOBLEMAN'S WOOING. -- Posed as a Lady's Maid to Make Ac- quaintance of a Baroness. A St. Petersburg paper publishes details of a Russian romance in which figures the wealthy and beautiful young Baroness Urusoff, the widow of a distinguished Russian government official. All the young cavaliers of Moscow were hopelessly in love with her. The baroness, however, rejected al; at- tempts to obtain an introduction to her and lived in perfect seclusion, at- tended only by an elderly relative. Some months ago a young peasant girl began to visit the residence of the baroness, offering the servants cheap articles for sale. Subsequently the baroness used to buy different articles from the peasant, who was intelligent, had good manners and considerable conveyeational talents. The baroness eventually asked the girl whether she would enter her service as a lady's maid. She agreed and discharged her duties to perfec- tion for a fortnight and then revealed \herself\ as a young Russian noble- man named siax mo • who, taking ad- vantage of his fair hair and complex- ion, had masqueraded as a domestic servant to break down the barriers ; with which the beautiful baroness had surrounded herself. I The baroness was so much impress- ,* by his extraordinary perseverance that she became engaged to him, and the marriage took place a few days ago. \COFFEE DOESN'T HURT ME\ Tales That Are Told. \I was one of the kind who wouldn't believe that coffee was hurting me,\ says a N. Y. woman. \You just couldn't convince me its use was connected with the heart and stomach trouble I suffered from most of the time. \My trouble finally, got so bad I had to'llve on milk and toast almost entirely for three or four years. Still I loved the coffee and wouldn't believe it could do such damage. \What I needed was to quit coffee and take nourishment in such form as my stomach could digest. \I had read much about Postum, but never thought it would fit my case until one day I decided to quit coffee and give it a trial and make sure about it. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions. \Soon I began to get better and was able to eat carefully selected foods without the aid of pepsin or other di- gestants and it WAS not long before I was really a new woman physically. \Now I am healthy and sound, can eat anything and everything that comes along and I know this wonder- ful change Is all due to my having quit coffee and got the nourishment I needed through this delicious Postum. \My wonder is why everyone don't give up the old coffee and the troubles 'that go with it and build themselves up I as I have done, with Postern.\ Easy to prove by 10 days' trial of Post= in place of coffee.

Small parties were sent out to recon- 1 matter, and at 7 o'clock in the even- ing they were within sight of the gates of Constantinople. They en- countered no resistance, nor does any resistance seem likely, unless it is at the palace. The city appears quiet, and European and American women are driving about the streets as usual. It is announced officially that the deaths at Adana during the rioting numbered 400, among the killed being many Turks. Telegraph lines to the provinces, however, are badly inter- rupted, and details of the massacres at Adana, Tarsus and other places are lacking. A Matter of Hours. Even though rumoss of the sultan's abdication are unconfirmed, they seemed to produce a feeling of dis- tinct relief in Constantinople, am1 the advance of the Satoshi' army, which is slow but steady, makes the settle- ment of the question of administra- tion a matter of hours. Business of all kin !s prvetically is suspended, and civil and military offi- cials appear patalyzed, welting for the outcome. The consensus of opin- ion is that it the abdication of the sultan is brouv,ht about his overthrow and the proclamation of his succeasor will be accomplished peacefully. PUTS JOHNSON THIFID ON LIST.

BABY'S WATERY ECZEMA Itched and Scratched Until Blood Ran -880 Spent on Useless Treatments -Disease Beamed Incurable. Cured by Cuticura tor $1.50. 'When my little boy was two and a half months old he broke out on both cheeks with eczema. It was the itchy, watery kind and we had to keep his little hands wrapped up all the time, and if he would happen to get fhem uncovered he would claw his face till the blood streamed down on his cloth- ing. We called in a physician at once, but he gave an ointment which was so severe that my babe would scream when it was put on. We changed doctors and medicine until we had spent fifty dollars or more and baby was getting worse. I was so worn out watching and caring for him night and day that I almost felt sure the disease was incurable. But finally reading of the good results of the Cuticura Rem- edies, I determined to try them. I can truthfully say I was more than surprised, for I bought only a dollar and a half's worth of the Cuticura Remedies (Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills), and they did more good than all my doctors' medicines I had tried, and in fact entirely cured him.
