Bonnin Pasha. 



Bouuin Pasha, the chief of the sul- 

 tan's private police, is a plump, thick- 

 Bet Freuchmau. In 1884 he went to 

 Constautiuople as a detective with the 

 French embassador. Abdul Hamid took 

 a fancy to him and desired him to or- 

 ganize a detective force for service about 

 the palace. A corps of bludgeon men 

 "was the result, and their tactics much 

 surprised the Parisian agent, Soudais, 

 a few years ago, when he invited his 

 colleague's help in arresting a notorious 

 swindler. Tapping at the malefactor's 

 door, the Turkish official felled to earth 

 the servant who opened it, and the par- 

 ty proceeded through the house, knock- 

 ing insensible everybody they met. 

 Soudais was busily engaged in .succoring 

 the wounded, while Bounin collared the 

 real criminal. Bounin has a comforta- 

 ble house in Pera, and his wife, as 

 court dressmaker, has considerably in- 

 creased his savings. — New York Trib-
