is another factor in the
N Macedonian question. The nomi-

ancient sect known AS the Eastern Ortho-
doN Church. a barren and unlovely
creed. combining elements of New ing
land PuritaniSm with the mysticism of
the Orient. But the Macedonians cling
to their Golden Faith. and it has been ::
strong feature in banding them together
against Islam.
The Macedonian leads n simple. pure
life Houses are well built. the walls are
solid and white-washed, the roofs tiled
or detached At eve ing-tide the peas
ants gather at the village well, where
interests are discussed, troths plighted,
and the day closed often with dances
to the accompaniment of bag-pipe or
folk songs. Warm family devotion, purity
in thought and action impress the trav-
eler. Domestic scandal is almost I'M
known.
Into this homely, gentle life intrudes
the unspeakable Turk, product of
dynasties of corruption, a being whose
conduct too often justties the belief that
he is devoid of tenderness, humor or
sympathy.
Abdul Hamid asserts that his govern
ment is the most liberal on earth to
religious sects, and, perhaps, were they
not revolutionists, the Christians in
Macedonia might live unframed. But
it is their misfortune that Christianity,
of the kind introduced by MISSIONARIES,
means education. In Turkey. Christian
ity, education and revolution seem to be
synonymous. The administration appears
bitter foe to one and all. This explains
why Christians only are eNterminated,
and not such outsiders as the Greeks;
kurds, Jews and Arabs me moral
justification is the Moran, when author

A third and, perhaps, most important
factor in the Macedonian question. Is
willy old Abdul Hamld himself. whom a
friendly writer describes as refined,
kindly, remarkably weii-informed put
harasscd and orer-worked gentleman,
1t is novel, at any rate. to hear the sui
tans personality defended in this way:
1t may be true. But IN the matter OF
governing the 3,ooo.ooO Christians IN
Macedonia, the following ndisputable
facts are set forth as an argument
against Abdul Hands principles OF JUS
tice:
In the courts the testimony OF n
Christian does not count against that OF a
Mohammedan.
ANY Christian is liable to imprisonment
upon the serious accusation of a Moslem.
He NAV be kept there Indefinitely with

WOMEN SAVED THE TREES.
Rallied to Preserve . Fine Row OF syca.
mores From Destruction.

RICHMOND, Va, May 1l.-Several we'll
known women resisted the decree OF the
city authorities to-day to readjust the
curb line on block in the best residential
part OF the city and thereby prevented the
sacrifice Of a row Of fine sycamore trees
which, by their great growth. have
appropriated much OF the sidewalk and
parts of the gutter.
Axemen were ready to begin work when
their purpose dawned on the residents.
First one woman and then another re-
monstrated with the foreman and, finding
him obdurate they surrounded the trees.
A crowd Of boys and men rallied to the
women's support and threats were heard Of
violence II any attempt was made to inter-
fere with them.
One well-known matron, bareheaded
and with fire in her eye, declared that she
had played in her childhood under. that
tree and that It would take hundred years
to grow another. and that it was dis
grace upon the city to cut it down.
The foreman telephoned to his chief that
the women at Fourth and Franklin streets
we're about to hang him and that the City
Engineer had better come and see about
1t. The City Engineer and district COM
mitteemen tried to argue the case, but
after two minutes under warm protests,
they agreed to build the cutters In cir
cleS around the trees.
