The Instability of the government of the Sultan la shown by the fact that although Vathey waa aa we spent there, It waa the aeenethroa day* later of a very violent revolution la which the Turkish governor waa killed aad a great deal of property damage done. It la this spirit which la found la every place that baa a foreign population under control of the Turks. Aa showing the cosmopolitan nature of oar passenger list, wo bad the grandson of the King of Bavaria, a very lady-like young man. and the daughter of the Sultan of Zanzibar, a very gentlemanly lady. Smyrna Wall Fortified. . Smyrna, with all ita beauty of loca- tion and past history, waa our next etopping place and it Is Interesting to note the difficulty tbe Allies are hav- ing In ita capture, for the city lies ex- posed on the hills overlooking the. bay w» 8roy"rna but at the extreme end of a long bay which Is well fortified and, undoubtedly, well miffed. There we aaw the famous Smyrna rugs In proc- ess of manufacture and had some real Smyrna figs. Smyrna Is a city of about 400,000 people and la well constructed With a harbor that It Is said would accommodate 200 war vessels. Leaving Smyrna at 6:00 p. m. we entered the Dardanelles at 4:00 the next morning. We passed between the two low-lying forta now destroyed by the Allies' guna and came to the city of Dardanelles, where the channel be cornea very narrow (leaa than a mile) aad waa even In 1908 a serious looking locality for unwelcome visitors. Even then heavy Krupp guna could be seen and the difficulties of Ita destruction could be easily understood although we little dreamed then that so short a would bring us to tbe conflict now raging. The Dardanelles does not hove half the beauty of St. Mary's river between Lake Superior and Lake Michigan and yet almost every mile baa some point Off historic Interest. Off to the east la lighting np those hundreda of graceful minarets that mark the sites of the 230 mosques of the city, we clipped Into the outlet of the Golden Horn near the view one haarr Tl.^11 under such aa approach la absolutely entrancing and one never to be forgot- tea. To tbe left Is the famous Seraglio Point where are located the remains of the former palaces of the Sultana to- gether with the Imperial Ottoman Mu- seum, the Court of the Janissaries with the great plane-tree under which the order waa accustomed to plot their mis- chief, and the Imperial Mint. Nearer the center of the picture la old Stam- boul with the mosque of St. Sophia, then the busy Golden Horn, aad on the right that portion of tbe town known aa Pera or Galata. Very prominent and standing guard over the whole city stands tbe famous Genoese tower now called tbe Galata tower and used aa a fire observatory. Further to tbe right is the European shore of the Bosphorus, which is bordered for mllea wltb the moat pretentious homes. Back of us across tbe Bos- phorus Is that other part of the city far Mr. years. wfortnieae Money. The country Is flooded with paper money that will rival la history American revolutionary currency, aa worthless. Every governor, proviso* aad evea city rsaey. Mexicans call It "beaks.** a corruption of the name "Weeks" aa American, who once had a concession to leans money, later failed aad the money was worthless. Mr. Furness bad a pocket book filled with Mils of all sixes, colors, and denominations. Some which waa good when he left will probably be worthless when he returns. Arrangements have been made by Mr. Purness snd his concern to ship oat ore regularly In twenty ear trains. The National railways of Mexico have eatabllsneu general offices In Torreon. called the "Chicago of Mexico." Ths rosd Is short of equipment, since the troop drains take most of it. Mr. Fur- neaa says these troop trains are a sight to remember. Tbe horses rids inside, the men on top snd in ham- mocks swung under-neath. They cook right on top of tbe cars, and they pre- sent a motley appearance. He says moat of the soldiers do not they are fighting about or tor. They Just enjoy the riding around on trains and shooting. If they are defeated they throw down their arms and are "amices" or friends. The ons fear which he haa for the country la that a famine will aeon set in. Msnagera of large ranches do not keep up their stores, since the stocks are so likely to be stolen. Horses and cattle are common property and Mr. Purness had lost over 200 horses from bis ranch In Guadalajara. for plasty of exclte- type of men aad loksd every Inch like fighters. The French do not present ths same snappy appearance; their uniforms do not fit well, and they ap- pear less thorongly disciplined, but there Is no question shout their bravery aad ability to fight." The English feel a little piqued at the American shipping protests. They still think, aa a signer of the Hague conference pact, that the United Statea should have stepped la and helped Belgium.

Of thla * number the Germans had sunk eight. The German submarines are being sup- plied by fishing trawlers.

Mr. McClure waa a passenger off the Lusitanla on the trip when the cap tain ran up the American flag sad turned for the Irish coast at fall speed. Mr. McCIure says that fie did not ass the submarine chasing the Cunard liner, but he thinks there must have been danger or ths British admiralty would not have advised the captain to ma up the Stars aad Stripes. The liner can do twenty-two knots an hoar, which Is BfoilM 1874 OLDEST AHP LARGEST BAHKOH THEHOWH HAVE YOU a safe place? visions >EA you carefully lat its pro- iedoi itorney with regard to Bank of Evanstonâ€"A st Companyâ€"your executor. - and left the mechanical porpoise in the wake. Mr. McCIure waa in Liverpool and London. The capital ia aa dark aa a dungeon at night. There are so arc lamps burning, and all windowa are heavUy blanketed. A setting of this kind would seem to encourage petty thieving and* hold-ups, but Mr. Mc- CIure says the city is practically free from thla. London, as well aa Parla, haa settled down to a grim determina- tion to win..aad the war is business. They expect to close up the fighting In August, pinning faith oa Kitchen er's army of 2,000,000 new men, which are now being landed in France at the rate of 20,000 a day.

Parts la not aa gay aa it was former- ly advertised. Business is going on aa usual, and there ia leaa comment on the war In tbe trench capital than there ia in America, according to Mr. McCIure. The French freely admit that the city waa in great'danger last summer. Von Kluck was just outside, but he had to wait for the crown prince's army to come through Luxem- burg, so that the heir to the throne could have the honor of riding into Parla aa its captor. The wait spelled defeat Mr. McCIure aaw many graves of Uhlans within the city lim- its, which ahowa how close the Ger- mans were. By a special permit he was able to get within ten miles of the fighting. He could hear tbe cannon firing In the distance, and would have liked to see the shells explode, but this was not possible.

Gradually, they wer<* driven back by tho Austrlans and other p plea until they occupied the post which they held in 1878, a strip along ihe southeastern corner of Europe. By meana of bargaining with Rus- sia in 1878 Austria got possession of Bosnia and Hertzogovina from Turkey aad the Russian* took pert of Bul- garia and icertajir seaport towns that they wanted. From then on the gov- ernment of Turkey in Europe instead of being controlled became worae, till in 1905 a commission of the powers at tempted to establish a good govern ment in Macedonia.
