The Shah of Persia, whose position has
been for centuries analogous to that of
the sultan except that he has not caused
such rivers of blood to flow, must in the
present unsettled condition of affairs in
his own country find plenty to give him
food for reflection.
1t has taken the people of the east
thousands of years to learn. Their gov
ernments were old when the most VEN
erable of modern nations We're in swad-
ding clothes. An antiquated idea OF gov
ernment held progress in check made the
people little better than serfs, stifled prog
ress and opened the way for untold crime
and brutality.
Still loyal to the old idea they submit
ted. The sultan. the shah, the knedive
were ancient titles, SO awesome that even
to think of revolt was to commit a fright
full crime not only against the ruler of
the nation, but against the gods of their
faith
The other nations of the world, except
ing possibly China. know no parallel for
the reverence in which the sultan and
the shah were held by their peoples.
A Turkish father would have stood by
and watched soldiers strike down his wife
and children without daring even word
of protest if he thought the order came
from the sultan. Superstitution had so
deeply bound their worship with the per-
son Of the ruler of the country that he
really became one of the gods.

he might represent an ancient ideal, was

an heiress If he is patient. His dis
tinguiShed father, who was rated at
quarter million when he entered the
White House, will doubtless live to be
millionaire If he lives out his three score
and ten and continues to write at a
dollar a word. Young Theodore how
ever, will not commence wife-hunting
probably. until he has gotten farther ad-

The Goelet family also boasts of an
eligible bachelor-Robert Walton Goelet.
who was graduated at Harvard seven
years ago, and who now enters his eighth
summer since his majority without hav-

In their battle to dethrone despotism
the worst foe the Young Turk had to deal
with was the system of espionage which
covered the whole country with the spies
of the sultan. For disrespectful word
against the monarch its author was likeiy
to be eXiled, his property conflscated, or
if Abdul felt III sanguinary mood, his
life might pay the forfeit.
For this reason the Young Turk avoided
having a recognized leader, for he soon
would have paid the price with his life.
Every Turk belonging to the order took
oath on the KORAN. There were taxes on
the members to raise needed funds to
carry on the work, the families of these
