the Congregational church Tuesday
evening on Personal "reminiscences of
Turkey and the Turks. The lecture
was full of incidents that happened
during his five years at Constantine

out was the condition of this nation
now about 800 years behind the prog
ress of modern nations. The speaker
took up the various customs that pro
duced this lack of enterprise and devel-
opment. Treachery and dishonesty
were shown to be national traits and
the lack of confidence resulting fur
nished reason for the stationary CON
dition of this people. The peculiar
mannerisms and religious observances
were also taken up in the course OF
the address.
