Slowly they approached each other, bhoir long, active arms fanning the air as they came nearer together. The sneer still hovered around Yousouf‘s lips. â€"Halil smiled and bided his time. _ Suddenly they locked,; and Yonsouf threw his right arm under and over Halil‘s neek to adiminister the strangle hold, Whisk ! _ Halil was free again. Onca more they crept upon each other, and Yousouf embraced bis foe with reâ€" newed energy. There was & bwist, a loud smack, as Yousout‘s hands slipped off again, and then a quick return. People who have seen Yousouf will recall the peculiar way he leaned forâ€" ward and clawed the air with Lis baâ€" boonâ€"like arms and gathered in his adâ€" versary as does the spider the flies that come within its web. But Yousouf could not get his hands on Halil and bold them there. YÂ¥et he tried; tried so hard and valiantly that a great red blotch of blood on the mat near the Salbtan‘s window in Tarkey is still left as a stain upon the record of Yousouf â€"he went down with the illâ€"fated Bourâ€" gogne, with $8,000 in American gold sbrapped to hisqwaist. The mseting between Yousouf and Halil is an odd story. ‘ Tb was at the instigation of the Sulban that the two great men meb. _ Yousouf was the favâ€" orite of His Maj>sty and Halil Adali was & carrier of pottery in the back streets of Constact nople. Many of the Sultan‘s friends had seen him bearâ€" ing his load~along the thoroughfares, and it came to the ears of the ruler that a mighty msn of muscle wa:; in the city, and hs could liftb a ton and set it down again withont breathing hard. The Suitan, being weary of seeing YOoUsoUr Cast wREsTLERS down without any effort, sent for Halil. The two mon looked upon each other. Yousouf shook his peanutâ€"shaped head derisively and strode away. But the Sultan gave the sign for the men to wresble. Both stripped. The two largest mon in Turkey faced each other. The Saltan waved his margala stem and biado the giants cngage. Like mountains they crashed together once more and from Halil‘s neck flsw his precious amulet, which Yousout, in his rage, had ripped from his opponâ€" ent‘s throat.* â€" 1t rolled along the mat under the Sultan‘s window, and the «mils wout out of Halil‘s eyes. Ib was then that Youscuf found he had met his mateb, for Halil, with his arms open and his greab chest heaving, wrapped Yousouf around the waist, and, locking his arms behind him, let forth all _his: strength. Auashen wave swept up the body of Yousouf, his eyes bulged, and with a moan he sank down as a torrent of blood gushed trom his set lips. Halil dropped the limp form, and after pickâ€" ing up his amulet, salaamed low before the Sulban. It wasenough. Yousouf was done for,. Halil became the Salâ€" tan‘s favorite. His reach, which is sevontyâ€"nine incbes, or two inches longer than that of Gas Ruhlin, the Arkon Giant,makes his arms look like the beams of a derrick when he throws them oub in reach of his prey. He is as strangely made as the great Turk Yousouf, yeb he is quicker and sbronger. His waist is but thirtyâ€"five inches in circumference. It is eighteen inches around his bicops, fourteen inches mround his forearm, and ten inches aronnd his wri t His neck would be barely comfortsble in a twentyâ€"inch colâ€" lar, and thirty inchos will barely girth his thigh, Halil Adali is an imposing looking Turk. He stands six foot five inchos in his stocking feet, while & tape line four feet in length will jast meet end to end around his chest. And should he take & long breath and heave his lungs a bit the tape must be four inchâ€" es longer to touch its ends. Nevor before has Tarkey sont us such & distinguished defendant of her claims to the wrestling champiosship of the world. _ If the big fellow does half the things he promises his Saltan and his beloved Mahomet, thers will be no wrestlers stacding on their feet on this side of the planot. He then became known as the L/on of Constentinople. ‘The Sultan had made for him a beautiful red suit, emâ€" blszoned with yellow braid, and from his neck bung over the outer garment From obscurity Halil Adali rose to a station of dignified importance, Hir ruler sent word to the uttermost corâ€" ners of Turkey that no man could throw his new wrestler. Then there came from far and near wrestlers who sought the favor of His Marjesty. The first man that essayed to pluck Halil‘s lsurels, after Yousouf had failed was Kara Hausman, In eighteon minâ€" utes he was put upon his back three times. There shou‘d have been a fil teen minute wait between each fall,but Kara insisted upon three bouts as fast Yousouf, who was drowned with his gold, was a "Terrible Tark" indeed. But hera comes a Turk more terrible. He was in fact the vanquisher of the "Terrible Turk" Youusouf, in the Tark‘s own country of "Terrible Taurks." He is most imposing to look upon, His chest expands to fiftyâ€"two inches and ke weighs 263 pounds. He is hero for business. He will, he says, lock his arms around any wrestler in America and throw bim on the mat. He wears & 20â€"inch collar. A TALISMAN OF GOOD LUCK which his ruler bad given him, Abiul Hamid, Sultan of Turkey, has sent Halil Adali, the grestest wrestler in the Empire of the Siar and Crescent, to Amsrica. His Mejesty has put an amulet about the neck of his mighty strangler and the blessing of Mahomet hss been invoked upon him. A Giant in Size and a Lion in f Streongth. ANQTHER _ TERRIBLE TURK, Now on a Visit to America It took all the ingenuity of the Sulâ€" tan‘s physicians to get the breath back into Nourlah‘s body, and for three days ho writhed on & cot, with Halil as his attendant. Bloodâ€"red foam came from between his tbeeth and after a second or two he ceased to move altogether. A shout went up from the unlookers, and the Sultan lifted his hand in satisfaction. Nourlah knew that he could not long hold his strength under such an assault, and presently his long arms shot outb and cireied _ the legs of Halil in a mighty embrace. Halil dropped to his knees, circled the neck of Nourlab, and with a great bears threw the visitor in the air, broke bis leg hold, and then like a snake twisted from under, while the great bedy of Nouriah hurled through the air crashed to the mat, stunned and almost lifo‘ess. It was a equare fall, and Nourâ€" lah struck on four points. For a moâ€" ment a tremor passed over Nourlah‘s body and then the giant When he.â€" had recovered entirely he wes given the post of sentinel at the Sultan‘s door, and is there tcâ€"day. Rtrangely enough, he is Halil‘s best friend. The outgrowth of that match was a two years‘ liberty for the L‘on of Constanticop‘e. The Su‘tan made it plain to him that he was desirous of having Halil go abroad and win new laure!s for himself,. _ Auother red suit was made, and upon the arms and the lefb shoulder are certain insignia that will give Halil Adali clean passports through all parts of Tarkey, besides adâ€" ditional good breatment throughout the civilized world. That is the reason why Halil is now in Americs. He has come here to wrestle such men as Jenliis and Roeâ€" ber and anyone else who cares to take him abt bis own game. With him is Antonio Pierri, who escorted him from the land of the crescent, whence Pierri himself comes. They felb each other out for ten minâ€" utes, when at last Nourlah swung low to come under and hip the favorite. Thab was his great mistake, Like a flash Halil‘s arms came over and, placâ€" ing his hands on Nourlah‘s neck, he drove his whole weight down with terâ€" rific force. Nourlah stiffened bis atbâ€" dominal muscles and arched his back. But Halil was upon him, and with the rapidiby of lightning he pushed Nourâ€" lah‘s head down again and again, 77;&‘580,” respondea the Sultan, "Halil shall become the sentinel and you shall become Halil." + Then began the most remarkable wrestling match in the bistory of Turâ€" key. Itb was to be catchâ€"asâ€"catch can, and the two gladiators were allowed to retire for a brief spell in prayer to Mahomet. f Nourlash approached Halil slowly, all the while trying tog :t an arm and neck hold. ~He guarded himaelf careâ€" fully and was cautious of every move made by Halil. Nourlah attempted to break away, but his adversary followed him everyâ€" where, drivipg and crowding him down, down, down. The blood rushed to Nourlah‘s head and he could not regain an upright position. In vain he strugâ€" gled and strained to get his breath. With each respiration breathing beâ€" came barder, and all the time Halil was pushing him down and swaying bhim from side to side. Already a match has been made with Tom Jenkins, who is regarded as one of America‘s best wrestlers. Jenking is a much smaller man than the Turk, but is possessed of marvellous skill and hes a sort of coursge that not even the terrible Turk can choke out of bim Nourlah was informed that if be sbood before Halil for thirty minubes he woald be given a place among the sontinels of the palace, at a salary that would enable him to retire from the wrestling mat. "Aud if I throw the Lion of Coastantinople !" he queried. Lso 0. Teller, Halil‘s American maneger,says he has had several private exhibitions with Halil in the leading role, and gives ib as his opinion that there is no man living on this side of the sea who can handlohim at all. Halil has a marvellous appetite, and eats six meals a day, He does not use any sorb of l‘quor, except <beer, and that in small quantities He is an inâ€" cessant cigarette smoker and drinks about two gallons of lemonade a day, â€"â€" THE SULTAN BECAME ALARMED for his favorite, and privately conveyâ€" ed his fears to Halil. Bat Halil was prepared to go on with the matcb, and bhe occupants of the entire palace were invited to witness the event, which was to come off within the palace walls. if our American wrestlers know as many defb movements as he does, I have never witnes>d such dexterity in a big man in my life, and if he ever gets an opponent‘s hsad below his waist he will make it so uncomfortable for him that bthe unfortunate man finding himeelf in that position will do some active work brying to get out of ib.‘ ‘He is as quick as a cat,‘ said Teller, ‘and for & vast and comprehentive vaâ€" riety of bricks, h> is & wonder. I doubt Halil, basking on a divan near the entrance of the garden, saw Nourlah and rose to greet him. Then the two men went before Abdul Hamid. On this occasion Three years ago there came from the interior of Turkey a giant named Nourlah. He was six feet eight inches in height and of great strepgth and courage. Hs came alone to the palace of the Sultan to make known his wants. Kara Abmet came next. He was thrown in the air in twelve minutes and his shoulder was dislocated in the fall. The Sultan gave orders that he be retired on a small pension, because of his fair wrestling against great odds. as they could be pulled off. He figured upon tiring Halil out. In the last bout Kara‘s arms wore nearly broken, and ha wandoered back to his farm near the headwators of the Danube.

Origirality and a development for great things has naught to check its growth where one can look with earnâ€" esb eyes from Nature up to Nature‘s God. To speak of ‘the ignorance of the rural regions‘ is to stamp one‘s self ss an ignoramus ; not the country people. There is a soundness of core and an inâ€" telligence in the back country of this nation of ours that peop‘e who live in cities and think themselves wiso never suspect. We can talk all we like of ‘social revolutions, and kindred evils that are supposed to threaten this nation. When they do threaten our institutions the dangerâ€"signal will not come from the back country. Such thoughts are born and fed amid the foul atmosphere of the cities. In the clear country asir of the farm nothing threatens this country, and when anyâ€" thing in the shape of & socialistic, anarchistic revolution does menace this land the true voice which will stamp ib out will come from the country. The backbone of this land res‘s in the country and on the farm. A few weeks ago while on a business trip to North Bay I was seizsd with a revere attack of sciatic rheumatism.

Worked Like a Man CATTLE Chronicle, Thursday, Noyvember 10, 1898â€"Page 6 Oe such sufferer who has been cured is Capt. D. W. Becket, who lives in the township of Oxford, Grenville County. Oâ€"pt, Becket is the owner of 275 acres, and lives in a beautifal farm home on the banks of the Rideau, some three miles from Kemptville. In addition to being a thrifty farmer, Mr. Beckebt hss taken an entbhusiastic inâ€" teresbt in our volunteer force, and bas graduat>d from the military college at Toronto with a first cless certificate, which entitles him to the rank of Msjor. To a reporter of the Kemptâ€" ville Advance, Capt. Becket made the following statement:â€" "Four _ years ago I was taken suddenly with rheumâ€" atism in both my elbows and thigh joints. The pain at timcs was someâ€" thing terrible, I took medicine and doctored for over six months, but conâ€" tinued to grow worse and worse. My arms from the slbow joints to the tips of the fingers became numb and had & pr.ickly sensation, and I was unable to do any work: in fact I could not lifté my hand to my head. The pain I sufâ€" fered in my bips was also almost unâ€" bearable and my legs were nearly as useloss as my arms. I had frequently read testimonials where Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills bad cured this disease, and atb last I thought I would try them as as an experiment. _ Before I had comâ€" pleted first box I felb they were helping me, and after I bad taken the pills & little more than a montb, the pain had entirely lefb me, and I felt an altoâ€" getber different man. I feel satisfied there is no other medicine could have wrought such a speedy cure, and I can truthfully say I met the ecoemy and defeated him through the aid of Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills ara a spec‘â€" fic for all diseases erising from an imâ€" poverished condition of the blood or a shattered condition of the nervoeus forces, such as St. Vitus dince, locomoâ€" tor ataxisa, â€" rheumatism, paralysis, sciatica, the after effects of la grippe; loss of appotite, hsadache, dizziness, chronic erysipelas, scrofala, etc. They are also a specific for the broubles peâ€" culisr to the female system, correcting irregularities, suppressions and _ all forms of female weakness, building anew the blood and restoring the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In tho case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from montal worry, overwork or excesses of any nature. There is a popular idea that rheuâ€" matism is caused by exposure to cold, and that some localities are infected with it more than others. Scientists say that such conditions frequently promote dissase, but from the fact that this ailment rans in certain families, ib is shown to be hereditary, and conseâ€" quently a disease of the blood. Protect yourself againstimi‘ations by insisting that every box you purchase bears the full name Dr, Williams‘ Pink Pills for Pale People. Frequently an individual in whose family rheumsatism bas not occurred, develops the disease, and when a diagâ€" nosis of the case is made, it is gensralâ€" ly found that the ailment is due to a derangement of the blood. No sooner is the tension lessened over the Fashoda affair than the air is thick with rumors of possible war, caused by continued activity in the Eaglish dockyards and the proposed mobilization of the British volunteers and militis. _ The Fashoda affair is sotâ€" tledâ€"for the presont, at anyrate. Why, then, such feverish prepsrations at the arsenals and dockyards? Is ib that Greab Britain intends to bluff the powers and cff r a counterfoil to the Saltan‘s spitefal lease of Babr el Ghazal to France. by proclaiming a British protectorate over Ezypt, thereâ€" by nullifying any firman of the Saltan‘s, who would then become the soiâ€"disant Suzjwain of Egypt? O: is ib that Britain feels that the coming strifo is to be waged further from bome?. Ts it for Eg:pt or Ohina that we are to fighs, or shall we have to fight at all? As we said a coupls of weeks ago, Russia wou‘ld not help France in the Fashoda matter, because Russia does not desire at present to be emâ€" broiled in any African complications. Russia‘s eyes aro ever eastward, for Russia is inexorsbly carrying outb the policy laid down by Peter the Great in the last centuryâ€"the consolidation of Holy Russis, and ber never halting march until she reaches an open sea.
