u Constantinople, July Interesting
reports of a strike of the cabmen in
the Holy City have arrived from Je-
rusalem. 1t was brought about in the
following manner:
The Turkish authorities. moved at
last by the bitter complaints of the
travelling public, made a feeble at
tempt to grapple with the crying evil
of the scandalous evercharging on the
part OF the local Jehus and the horse
and carriage owners, from which Wis.
itors to the cradle OF Christianity
have suffered so long. A regular tar
in of legal fees was introduced, much
to the disgust of the drivers and
proprietors, who saw their revenue
obtained from Fleeing tourists, appre-
ciably diminished in future. SO they
struck in a body, and for the first
time, pedestrians could proceed on
their way unmolested by the clouds OF
malodorous dust whirled up by the
miserable nondescript boxes on
wheels known as public conveyances
A crowd assembled at the well known
Jaffa Gate enjoying the spectacle of
foreign visitors arriving by train
from Jaffa, tramping with their lug
gage through the thick dust to their
destinations. The strike, however
only lasted a few days The city au
thorities gave way to the demands OF
the strikers and the tariff was with
drawn. Intending tourists will dc

st. Petersburg, July 5.-Emperor
Nicholas has taken the almost unpre-
cedented step of publicly directing
Grand Duke Nicholaievitch. command-
ar OF the forces of the military district
of st. Petersburg, TO invesugate and
take measures to stop the disorders
among the troops. General Ozerofr, OF
the first guard division, and General
Gadon, commander of the Preobra-
jensky regiment, which recently ex~
pressed by resolution its sympathy
with parliament, have been dismissed
In disgrace.
All attempts to purge the army of
the spirit of disloyalty, will. however,
probably prove futile. The revolution
lists are rejoicing at the success of
what they regard as the final phase OF
the work of preparing for the coming
revolution. Further extension of the
agrarian disorders is reported. The
issues of five great newspapers in this
city were confiscated last night. Over
two HUNDRED papers In the interior
have been seized during the last fort
night.

BIG SUCCESS

Philadelphia, Pa, July 5.--The third
annual summer school of the Uniyer-
sity OF Pennsylvania opened today for
term of six weeks. The enrolment
Is larger than during the first two
years rhe enrolment at the first
summer school was 1877, at the second
PIP, but this year II is more than 300.
The courses this year lave been in
creased and the faculty has been en-
larged. The curriculum includes
almost the entire course of the col
lege In a somewhat abbreviated form,
but with essentials retained. There
are no entrance examinations. The
summer school has grown beyond the
use OF teachers only, and many pro
fessional men. anxious to In,. case
their general knowledge, attend the
course. Both men and women are ad-
mitted. The course, which will close
on August 10, is under the direction
OF Prof. Arthur HObson Quinn.
In addition 10 the regular lectures
and recitals there will be number of
excursions during the summer for the
members of the summer school. These
will be in charge OF DR.. James +. viii

Among other places the University

INTERESTING DISCOVERY
MADE IN ARCHAEOLOGY

Berlin, July AT the last meeting
of the Academy of Sciences in this
city some interesting details were
given of the success attained by the
Prussian Exploration Expedition to
Chinese Turkestan.
A letter was read from Prof. Cru
enwedel, dated "Komura, near Kut-
cha" stating that the Mingoi Caves
had been explored, but that the ex-
pected find OF manuscripts had proved
Insignificant, the Japanese having
cleared most of them away in 1908.
Most interesting archaeological dis
coyeries, however, were made.
Remains were found of persons be-
longing to a red haired, blue eyed
race, evidently the founders of the
Mingoi Caves, and bearing garments
OF unmistagably lranian origin. A
number OF huge iron swords were also
discovered. Search revealed the ex-
is-ence Of further numerous Buddhist
frescoes containing many figures. The
temple seemed, in fact, to have been
a sort of BudOhistic pantheon.

A BLONDE WOMAN
WITH A POODLE

She was not a large woman, neither
was she small. Her rosy countenance
wore the smile that won come off,
and her hair was very blond. Dressed
In the heighth of fashion, she was just
the woman to attract much attention.
Yes, I'm Edith Terry, but please
don't write me up harshly, MIR. News
paperman." SO beseached Edith Ter
ry. the erstwhile wife of the dashing
Captain Terry, of the United States
army, whose divcrce in February,
from the star of Crabtrees "Show
Girl" of four years ago attracted much
attention in army circles. The papers
were full of II, and of winsome pic
lures of the woman who sought relief.
That divorce business is quite a
painful subject for me-won't you
talk of something else? Let me show
you my dog hes an Angora poodle
and his name is Monkey.
II was a lucky poodle that was
pulled from out the baggage car and
taken for a stroll at the end of a
chain. The green grass at the Al
varado station looked good to him.
But just then the conductor called "all
aboard"
Miss Terry was on board the flyer
going TO Santa Monica. Cal. to be the
guest of .-er uncle anu aunt. General
and Mrs. Wiley Wells. Since her di-
vorce, sne had been stopping at her
bluegrass home at Louisville, Ky.
"Bnt rumor has It that you are 10

porter.
Yes. IN to be married in Janu-
airy, but that's nobody's business but
my own"
But what's his name?'

millionaire: that's enough. OF course
he'd be n millionaire.

the train was gone, with Miss Terry
with the Angora poodle in her arms.

Besides these advantages that are

of such a line, the sugar trust has

mean an increase of revenue for the
entire valley and Albuquerque inhab-

localities TO need any arguments as TO

for the farmer who raises the beets
and the manufacturers and stockhOld-

ALBUQUERQUE AS SEEN
BY TRAVELLED VISITOR
FROM THE FAR NORTHEAST HIS
VISIT HERE is A REVELATION
WHAT TOURIST TRAVEL HAS
DONE FOR MAINE THROUGH
ADVERTISING.

Edward I. Wing, a prominent citi-
zen of Portland, Me-, is visitor to the
city. Mr.. Wing is enjoying his vaca-
tion in visiting New Mexico for the
first time, though as a member of one
of the three geographical societies of
this country he has visited nearly all
parts of this great nation.
To Citizen representative Mr..
Wing expressed his astonishment at
what he had seen in his trip to this
city. I'm our country said Mr..
Wing, the people generally think that
New Mexico's population consists al
most entirely of vaqueros (cowboys),
whose costume consists of tight trous-
ers, no shoes, immense spurs, cotton
shirt, tall silver embroidered hat, gor-
geous waist scarf with any number of
pistols and knives stuck therein, and
whose highest amusement is afforded
by killing or shooting lue tenderfoot.
Do you know" said Mr.. Wing, 81 have
yet TO see the first illustration of this
typical idea of the New Mexico citi-
zen? On the contrary, | have found
an active, enterprising, vigorous
American citizenship, fourishing
towns, and native population which
as far as | have been able to see is
industrious, intelligent and well-to-
do"
Mr. Wing said that in all his trav-
els, which had been both far and wide,
he never had seen any other place Of
the size of Albuquerque-and he had
been all over this town-which at all
approached this city in its city ap-
pearance and conveniences. why,
sir exclaimed Mr.. Wing, your town
in its sidewalks, business blocks and
residence property its water, lighting
and street car service, would put to
shame almost any town of twice its
size, in all the east"
1t goes without saying that Mr..
Wing will take back with him TO far
off Portland, Maine, a very different
idea of New Mexico from that which
he brought with him There is one
lesson 70 learn from the visit OF this
distinguished gentleman. He brought
with him some of the most attractive
advertising matter-a good deal of it
OF his town and section, which this
writer has seen of any town or any
section. He stated that last year
Maine prOtited 10 the extent of $4,000
600 alone from its influx of tourists.
Here is a lesson for Albuquerque II
this extreme northeastern part of the
American Union could do thus well by
advertising its scenic beauties. what
could Albuquerque not do so by proper
advertising of all its numerous re-
sources. Will the Commercial club
please take notice and act accord
.ngly?
