THEsTANDARDoFTHE PROPHET

I. There has been some talk lately at
Constantinople about the alleged inten-
ton of the Sultan to raise "the Standard
of the Prophet This banner Is never
unfurled except at times of grave emer-
gency, when the Porte desires to inflame
the fanaticism of its Moslem subjects.
The origin Of this all-powerful standard
Is somewhat curious. When the Prophet
was on his deathbed at Medina, on the
eve of proceeding to the conquest of Syria
the chief officers of his army were sum-
moned to hear bis last order. As they
were listening to his dying utterances,
Ayesha, the beautiful and best-beloved
wife of the Prophet, rushed into the room
and tearing down the green curtain
which screened one end, threw it to the
officers, with an exhOrtatiOn to preserve
it as rallying standard for Islam. This
was really done during subsequent wars
against the infdel, and it is asserted, on
good authority, that it was this identical
curtain which foated over the walls of
Vienna in 1888. According to the Neue
Freie Presse the unfurling of the sacred
banner is a matter of much ceremony.
No one but the reigning Sultan can dis
charge the duty, and Abdul will therefore
be called upon to perform it in the event
of his deciding to give the present war a
religious character. AS soon as the stand
ard has been unfurled, it is handed over
to the Scheik-ul-Islam, who, mounted on
a gorgeously caparisoned steed, aud at
tended by the Sultan bearing a drawn
sword, goes in procession through the
streets of Stamboul. Among his escort
are number of ulemds, whose duty it is
to proclaim the news that the Caliph has
embarked in hostilities against the inffdel.
After these initial ceremonies are finish
ed, the holy banner is conveyed by the
Scheik-ul-Islam himself to the headquar-
ters of the army in the field, where it is
taken charge of by the commander-in-
chief. When the battle is joined it is
either borne to the front or so placed
that the Ottoman troops may see its sa-
cred folds waving in the wind. The
beautiful Ayesha can scarcely have i'm
agined that such lofty destiny was in
store for her green curtain when she
made use of it to save her dying husband
from further questioning at the hands OF
his of1icers.-London Globe.

"THE ARCHITECT" is becoming an
able destroyer of human life he deserves
to take rank with the locomotive engi-
neer and the switch tender. The Ashta-
bula disaster was directly the fault of his
incompetence. The New York postoffice
disaster was owing to his imbecility. The
Rockford state house disaster was owing
to his blunders-and so it goes. Let it
not be thought that we are casting a
slight upon noble profession. Compe-
tent and experienced architects are worth
vastly more to builders than the paw they
get. 1t is the quacks and pretenders to a
knowledge of architecture that cause the
wrecks and the collapse of great build
ings, burying crushed and mangled men
beneath the ruins. The latest disaster Of
this kind was at Cedar Rapids yesterday
where whole block of stores fell, bury.
ing seventeen men In the ruins.
