They will consist of hurdle and relay races, bicycle contests and pole vaulting. On the second day of the carnival five more events will be opened to city departments; 220-yards run, three-quarter mile bicycle race, 1,200 yards relay race, running high jump and putting sixteen pound shot. Oold, silver and bronze prizes will be awarded to first, second and third in each event respectively. Last year, as has been stated, the city responded generously to this appeal for the benefit of the widows and orphans of the members of the police force killed In the performance of duty. As a result, over $85,000 was obtained for the Honor Roll Relief Fund.

The trustees of the fund are Police Commissioner Arthur Woods, the Chief Inspector, the President of the Honor Legion and the President of the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, all ex-offlcio, and Messrs. W. A. Harriman, Vincent Astor, George W. Perkins, D.

I. McKay and R. A. C. Smith.

276th Precinct, and Patrolman Charles J. Teare, Shield 10009, Twelfth Precinct. At 1:45 p.m. on May 3, 1913, a man believed to be Oresto Shillitoni, in an altercation, shot and mortally wounded one John Rizzo in front of premises, 235 Mulberry street. Probationary Patrolman Heaney, who was on patrol duty on Mulberry street, followed by Patrolman Teare, who was on duty on fixed post, on hearing the shot ran to the scene, where they found Rizzo lying In the street.

Seeing a man running away, who they believed did the shooting, they followed him to the entrance of 241 Mulberry street, where he turned and pointed a revolver he had concealed in his hand at Heaney, and when Heaney was within fifteen feet of him, he shot and instantly killed him. He then turned his revolver on Teare, who, although he saw his fellow patrolman shot down, never hesitated, and when he came in close range was shot, as a result of lN COMMISSIONER WOODS re cently, in addressing an audience of boy scouts, told a story of his newspaper days. He was looking for a subject for a "Sun day special" and was having difficulty in his quest. "Oh," said one old-timer, "that's easy. Write a story boosting the firemen or knocking the cops." If that were ever the attitude of Brooklyn and New York City it has changed and no better indication of this change could be found than the manner in which the athletic carnival of the Police Department's Honor Roll Relief Fund is supported.

The pension system of the department is said to be inadequate and the relief of the widows and orphans of the members of the "force" who are killed In the performance of duty is said to be dependent upon this special fund maintained by the members themselves. Over $85,000 was cleared by the games last year, and even more is expected to be raised by the games that will be held next Saturday and the Saturday following at the Brooklyn Jockey Club Track. Mayor Mitchel, Governor Whitman, Major General Wood, and Rear Admiral Usher have been invited to be present and are expected to attend the games, but they will bave strong rivals, in so far as the Interest of the spectators is concerned. In Policemen Eller, McDonald and Ericsson, Olympic point winners all three, who will take part In the 150-yard hurdle race, the weight eventsh and the high jump, respectively.

On March 6, 1914, while in the pursuit of William McHenry, who had committed a burglary at 3 75 Tompkins avenue, Brooklyn, above patrolman was shot by said McHenry, who had taken refuge in an areaway of house, 41'5 Madison street, Brooklyn.

As a result of the wound received, patrolman died. Re Patrolman Michael J. Kiley, Shield 6749, 156th Precinct. At 2:25 a.m., May 4, 1914, the above patrolman, who was on patrol duty on Putnam avenue, from Bedford avenue to Cambridge place, Brooklyn, having heard the report of a pistol shot and seeing one Christopher Dunn running, attempted to stop him, when Dunn shot the officer in the left side and continued running down Downing street. As a result of the wound received the patrolman died.

Re Patrolman Edward Murtha, Shield 2477, 147th Precinct. On February 5, 1914, in front of 87 Fourth street, Brooklyn, said patrolman, while questioning a suspicious looking man, who, it was afterward ascertained, was Giuseppe Marendl, an Italian laborer, noticed that Marendl stood with his left hand closed over his right and endeavoring to break the hold, believing that Marendl was carrying a dangerous weapon, Marendi discharged a 38-caliber revolver, the shot taking effect near the patrolman's heart, and as a result of the wound the patrolman died the following morning in the hospital. CHRISTIAN FAMILIES SEPARATED BY TURKS Men Sent to the Army Women and Children Deported. and DEATH BETTER, SAY VICTIMS. New Form of Persecution Reaches American Board for Foreign Missions.

The American Board of Commission ers for Foreign Missions has Just received from sources, not missionary correspondents, which it considers absolutely reliable, the confirmation of rumors of troubles among Christian communities in Central Turkey. In the region back of the northeastern corner of the Mediterranean are a number of large and flourishing cities, among them Aintab, where the board has a large men's college, girls' seminary and well-equipped hospital; and Marash, where is located the Central Turkey Girls College and a theological seminary. Both these cities are surrounded by villages and out-stations, many of whose people are and a large proportion of whom are Armenians. In 1S96 and again in 1909 Moslems massacred Christians in this part of Turkey till the streets ran red with blood: they drove them into their churches and burned buildings and people together; they robbed homes and outraged their women and children. A couple of months ago Moslems began to bear themselves threateningly, when individual Christians received warning to keep quiet and oui of sight, and when a mob invaded th Christian quarter of Aintab one night with sticks, firing guns, beating on the gates and ordering everybody to get up and celebrate the sinking of the Allies' ships in the Dardanelles.

The present governor of Marash, although a Moslem, is sympathetic toward Christians. A reliable Mohammedan living on the Barzurjuk plain, between Marash and Aintab. admitted that the fears of Christians were justified; that a massacre had been planned, to take place near Easter, hut that It was prevented by the efforts of this Moslem governor. In Aintab also the Vali and the Aintab governor issued proclamations for bidding any harm to the Armenians. and the unrest stopped for a time.

jow, however, the Moslem authori ties have found a new way. Some fugitive soldiers who had taken refuge in an Armenian village were given up to the village authorities with the understanding that the town would not be molested further. Two or three days later thirty-five leading men of this place, with their families, were called to the village government house and told that they were to be deported. iney were not allowed to make any arrangements, to say goodhy to friends to return to their houses. The group included the head of the orphanage in the village, an institution under American supervision, with his wife and two of his children, five other children being left behind.

They were taken first to Marash, but no food was given them and they were not allowed to communicate with friends. Next day the families were sepa rated, the men being sent one way. the women and children another. The board's informant savs: "The officers openly told the soldiers escorting this company out of Marash that they were tree to do what they pleased to the women and girls. I learned," the re port goes on.

that these people are -being sent to the Irak (in the Mosul-Bagdad region). Those who reach there alive will be mountaineers placed In one or tne Hottest countries of the earth. Christian emigrants among an Arabic-speaking population of strong Mohammedans, branded as having been disloyal to the government their loyalty to which they have just proved by surrender to it." Marash people declare that death would have been preferable to this treatment. It seems evident that instead of by massacres the Christian population of this part of Turkey is to be disposed of through "legal" means. The men are to be called as soldiers, and then the families deported.

The American Board received assurances from pri vate sources and from government of ficials that the protection of the lives of its missionaries and of their immediate families is absolutely guaranteed. The crushing and deportation of the educated and able Christian population of this region is. however, a direct blow at American missionar Interests, menacing the work of fifty years and the expenditure of many jumper; Patrick.

These simple, terse statements, couched in dry official language, probably tell the story of the frank and unquestioning heroism of these men better than the most ornate rhetoric could do.

Among them are the stories of Policeman Wynn of Brooklyn, who was killed last year by a burglar he was pursuing; of Policeman Kiley of this borough, who was shot by Christopher Dunn, and of Patrolman Mur-tha, also of Brooklyn, who was shot last year by Giuseppe Marendl, whom he was attempting to arrest.

At about 11:45 a.m. January 3, 1912, said patrolman jumped overboard at the foot of East Fifty-fourth street into the river In an effort to save an unknown man who had thrown himself from the foot of East Fifty-third street into the river in an attempt to commit suicide; the patrolman attempted to save the man by swimming from the pier at the foot of East Fifty-fourth but, owing to the extreme cold weather and the strong tide running, was unsuccessful and had to Itali Commancler Is Sixty lan (Special Correspondence of The Eagle) Rome, June 7 Luigl Cadorna, the Italian Commander-in-chief, is 65 years old, or about the same age as General Joffre, and a few years younger than Field Marshal von Hinden-burg.

The English Commander-in-Chief is also In his sixties, all of which ought to put a stop to the after-dinner jokes about "Oslerism." Unlike the French Generalissimo, the Italian leader is a devout Catholic. He has two daughters who are nuns, and his two favorite books are said to be the "Theodice" of Antonio Ros-minl, inherited from his father, and the Bible, from which he never falls to read a chapter every evening. Gen- eral Joffre is an earnest and serious man of the highest civic morality but he is not a professing Christian. Luigl Cadorna Is also like his French brother in arms in that he has never dabbled In politics. He is a professional soldier, pure and simple.

The military career runs in the family. His father was General Raffaele Cadorna, known as the liberator of Rome, having been commander of the troops that took possession of the Italian capital in 1870, after French troops that were protecting the last remnants of the Pope's temporal power had been withdrawn for the war against Prussia. Raffaele Cadorna took part in several wars against Austria. The first was in 1849, under Charles Albert, King of Piedmont, and great grandfather of the present King of Italy. The campaign was not sucessful.

After that the elder Cadorna enlisted In the French Army and fnr his fine conduct in the Kabyiian campaign he was given the Legion of Honor cross.

June 2 The State's super vision of the agricultural resources of the country has been brougnt to a hleh state of perfection during the past few months.

Questions of credits, supplies, labor and marketing have all received attention. In laci, every effort has been made to adapt tne country to the new conditions. Much effort was needed to iransiurm the organization of credit which so powerfuly supports German agrarian interests in accordance with the re quirements of war. One of the acutest aimcuiues was the supply of artificial fertilizers, since the importation of nitrates and guano had ceased. The problem has been ceneral solved by the use of prod ucts in which use is made of the store of nitrogen in the air.

In this, as in other respects, Germany hopes in the future to be self-supporting.

Prisoners of war will also be used. There are over a million prisoners in the various camps of Germany and Austria, and more and more of them are being used as farm laborers.

In many places they may be seen in their varied uniforms at work in the fields. The women, also, have been mobilized for agricultural labor.

At the age of 10 he began his military education by entering the military school at Milan, and five years later he continued his education at the Military Academy at Turin. His schoolmates recall him as a pretty obstreperous youth, and many a time he was put on a bread and water diet for his youthful escapades.

At 17 he was made a sub-lieutenant on the general staff, and began a course at the School of War. At 25 he was a captain and eight years later he was named commander of the Sixty-second Regiment of the Infantry. At the big maneuvres in the Abruzzi region in 1895 he showed his skill and came back chief of the genera staft. At 42 he was a colonel at the nea(J ot the Tenth Regiment of Bersa glierl, and in 1898 he was made a gen eral. Five years ago he was Installed at Genoa as commander of an army corps, and last August, when war clouds were bursting everywhere he was raised to the post of commander-in-chief of the Italian army.

During his career he has been a frequent contributor to the Revista Mil-itaire, an Italian professional military journal, and recently he has composed a technical treatise on tactics that has been distributed to all the Italian officers in order that they may conform themselves to the ideas of the highest commander. The Italian Generalissimo has been an earnest traveler and he is said to be personally familiar with every hill and brook In the territory where it is expected the campaign against Austria and Germany will be fought.

TAKATA MADE A PEER BY EMPEROR OF JAPAN Tokio, June 7 Sanae Takata, the president of Waseda University, which was founded bv Count Okuma, the prime minister, has been created member of the House of Poers by Em peror Yoshihito. This honor is in recognition of his distinguished service to Japanese education. Dr. Takata became president of Waseda in 1907 and since that time the institution has grown in popularity until today has has about 6,000 students. President Eikichl Kamada of Keio University was appointed to the House of Peers some time ago.

These promotions are interpreted as indicating the Emperor's recognition and appreciation of the place that education occupies in modern Japan. So great, indeed, have been the strides made in popularizing education that Japan like the United States is beginning to find difficulty in placing the graduates of its universities. Colleges, both governmental and private, crowded with students who are unable to obtain the lucrative positions they have dreamed of. Not enough places exist in Japanese commercial and professional life to meet the demands of the steadily increasing number of graduates. This year's graduates of the law college of the Imperial University at Tokio number 450 and of this number only 150 have their future positions secured.

Statistics show that from 1878 to 1902 students were able to find places governmental service or in business without difficulty. Since 1903, however, the situation has entirely changed. Fifty per cent, of the graduates have had to wait for one to three years to find employment. The large cities are already overstocked with lawyers. Some doctors of law are even serving as policemen and others experiencing great hardships in earning a living.

When and how did the United States purchase Alaska? G. J. C. As early as 1859 there were unofficial communications between the Russian and United States Governments looking to the transfer of Alaska from the former to the latter. Russia was more than glad to dispose of a property which she would find hard to -protect In case of war; and the Interests connected with the fisheries and the fur trade in the Northwest were disposed to promote the transfer.

In March, 1867, definite negotiations were opened between the two coun tries and on March 23 the Russian minister at Washington received from Secretary Seward an offer, subject to 'the approval of the President, of on condition that the cession ibe "free and unencumbered by any reservations, privileges franchises, grants or possessions by any asso elated companies whether corporate I or Incorporate, Russian or any other. i Two days later the Russian minister announced that he believed he was authorized to accept these terms. On the 29th final instructions were re ceived from St. Petersburg by cable. On the same day a note was addressed by, the Minister to the Secretary of State Informing him that the Czar consented to the cession of Russian America for the stipulated sum of 200,000 in gold, at 4 o'clock the next morning by both parties without further phrase or negotiation.

In May the treaty was ratified, and on June 20, 1867, the usual proclamation was issued by the President of the United States.

The real name of the heroine was Charlotte Stanley, an English school-girl, induced to come to New York by her betrayer, an English officer, Lieutenant-Colonel Montressor the Colonel Montraville of the novel and abandoned here. Shied led after giving birth to a girl. There is a monument to her memory in Trinity Church graveyard, this city. Colonel Montraville, according to the story, mairied in New York City, and by a strange nemesis his oldest son became engaged to a girl who turned out to be his daughter by Charlotte. This part of the story is told in the sequel, "Charlotte's Daughter," published posthumously.

You can get the books at the public libra ry. The stories were inspired by the great public sympathy shown by the citizens of New York for the unfortunate Miss Stanley. A. S. M.

It is Impracticable to name the shortest block in the city, as there are so many triangles at street intersections which are really blocks, some of which are exceedingly small. As to the shortest street the matter is different. In Brooklyn we have our shortest street in a brief thoroughfare called Way Home. It is on the map as a street and In the street dictionaries. It is an odd little, dead end street (hardly more than an opening between houses), about one hundred feet or so long.

There are two or three narrow houses on one side. The other side is shut in by the house which fronts at 250 Gold street, where Way Home begins. It is very narrow and has no sidewalks. In Manhattan the shortest street Is known as Edgar street It runs from 59 Greenwich treet to Trinity place and is only a few yards long. There is no house on this street.
