TURKISH HAREMS
RESCUE OF ARMENIAN WOMEN. THE METHODS DESCRIBED. (Frees Association—By Telegraph—Copyright.,’ GENEVA, September 24. (Received Sept. 24, at 5.5 p.m.) Explaining how she had rescued 1400 Armenian women from the Turkish harems in four years, Miss Jeppc, the Leagues’ Commissioner at Aleppo, said that the most useful emissaries were washerwomen who told the Armenians that they would find a home, be taught to earn a living, and enabled to find their relations. The rescuers encountered their chief difficulties in the towns where the harems offered luxury and idleness. —A. and N.Z. Cable.
