The American minister at Constantinople, Mr. Leishinan, and his wife do HA a good deal of entertaining. Every Friday they hold 'an Informal reception on the polo ground, and every &c. Wednesday evening there Is a dance in their rooms. Recently they gave a moonlight picnic at the Genoese cas-tlan ancient ruin situated on a hill rv at the entrance of the Bosporus on the Asiatic coast. It Is an Ideal spot for the purpose. Below it lies on one side the Black sea and on the other the Bosporus winds away for miles. Unfortunately for the success of the trip, several of the younger members of the higher financial and diplomatic circle' thought they would emulate the performance of the acrobats in a circus which has visited the capital, by making a human pyramid. They were very successful in forming the pyramid, but unfortunately at the critical moment, as often happens with financial and diplomatic people, one lost hi3 balance and came down, bringing all the rest with him. Most of them got off with severe bruises and one with a broken tendon at the ankle. They had to send to Therapla for a stretcher to take him home, where he $ will lay up for a month. & Brutality In the French Army.
