GEORGE W.M.
P.S.--I am nine and a half years old.

DEAR GEORGE:

It is said that the Queen of the Hawaiian Islands allowed herself to be
influenced by bad advisers, and after a while ruled her people so badly,
that they ceased to love her.

EDITOR.

DEAR EDITOR:

THE GREAT ROUND WORLD interests me very much. I am very glad that
the children here in the United States can work so prettily in
sewing, and I think that we people ought to be proud to think that
the children in this country can really accomplish the best work
done in the world.

I would like to know if those American sailors who were arrested in
Siberia are free, or were they rearrested.

I think General Weyler is very mean for treating the wounded
soldiers of Cuba so cruelly, but I am glad that Cuba is getting the
best of the war.

Yours truly,
NANCY J.
NEW YORK CITY, June 7th. 1897.

DEAR NANCY:

You will find the latest news about the American sailors in last week's
issue of THE GREAT ROUND WORLD. Thank you for your letter.

EDITOR.

DEAR EDITOR:

I am very anxious to know if you can tell me who the Turkish Consul
in New York and the United States Consul in Constantinople are, and
how to address a letter to each. I read your paper every week, and
enjoy it very much.

HARRY A.S.

DEAR HARRY:

The Turkish Consul in New York is Chefik Bey. Address your letter:

His Excellency Chefik Bey,
Turkish Consulate,
24 State Street,
New York.

The United States Consul in Constantinople is Mr. Luther Short. Address
your letter to him:

The Honorable Luther Short,

Turkey.

EDITOR.

DEAR EDITOR:

Our teacher reads to us your nice paper, and we like it very much.
Will you tell us something more about the Freeville Junior
Republic, and what did they do with the insane Empress, Carlotta of
Mexico?

Your unknown friend
