txouble, as any man with 300 wives ought to be. Abdul Hamid detests 299 of the 800, and loathes the Turkish much niarried system. He would certainly gire one eye to be rid of the whole thing, with the plague of 300 women, six female sla ves to each, but what can he do? The customs of his country require that he should take all these wives and support them at an expense of f20,000,000 a year. This is part of the show, and he cadhot get rid of it.
