PRAYERS NEVER PASSED OVER
First Thought In the Mind Of Moham.
medan Is His Duty of Devotion
TO Allah.

"And while we three white men OF
a Christian race stuffed ourselves
without preliminary or postprandial
grace, and our shenzi porters grace
lessly gorged themselves like beasts,
scarce 80 feet from our table stood
the noble form of old Regal and the
spare ascetic-faced Awala, unsteady
informing their evening prayer to Al
lab, oblivious to all about as If alone
in monastic cell. II was a majestic
rebuke to us, a weird mystery to the
shenZi, whose voices were always low
cred when the Somais began TO pray,
and who sat contemplating them in
wild-eyed wonder TO the end of each
prayer, awed, almost silent-as were
we ourselves silent out of the sheer
respect for a religion which can give
men such perfect self-control that no
danger daunts them and no hardship
or suffering wrings from them a
plant.
Five times day do-they so pray
at dawn, at high noon. at four, at
sunset and before retiring-nor can
anything interfere to delay these
prayers, not even hungry masters.
And before addressing Allah, mouth,
face and hands are carefully washed,
the best turban wound about the head,
the freshest garments donned, the
feet barred, then with glance at the
sun, If by day, or at the stars, If by
night TO get their compass bearings,
they spread their rugs face towards
Mecca, and begin a low, droning
chant that at little distance might
easily be mistaken for well-intoned
litany. In Closed Territory, by

Priced Japanese Swords.

Though sword manufacture has
ceased to be in Japan today outside
of the government arsenals which
turn out only the accepted military
blade OF the modern army, the coun-
try is filled with priced relics of the
past art; and these are relics which
the Japanese will not sell. A pos
SCISSOR of one of the old swords, keen
and blue white in luster as the day
1t was forged, would sell his house,
even himself, maybe, before he would
part with his iron Bible of Bushido
for money.

Now that Japan too, is planning to
seek the south pole, the likelihood of
that spot being reached is increased
by so much. Pole-huuting as a diver
sion is growing in popularity, but the
fact inevitably remains that the sue

tons now organized for the purpose Of
reaching the pole will serve greatly to
lessen interest in the subject, says the

William Butler Yeats, the noted

completing his education at the Eras-

written many poems and several sue

A decided change for the better has
taken place i'm the financial situation
since the dissolution OF the govern
ments injunction suit against the rail-
roads, remarks Henry Clews. The
prospects now are that tho railroad
bill introduced at Washington Will be
the first object of legislation. and a
fair chance exists of this troublesome
question being adjusted before the adj
journment OF Congress which is not
far distant. The proposed measure Is
one OF great importance. inasmuch as
II proposes to regulate rates, 10 regu
late the issue OF securities, 10 ascer-
tain physical valuation and 10 do many
other things with the railroads; some
OF which are wise and some OF which
are highly visionary. What the out
come will be II Is impossible 10 fore
cast at this time; but an issue or
great Importance, IS, II is hoped. about
70 be settled In a way that will ensure
the rights OF the public. and conserve
the rights OF security holders. The
railroads have agreed to postpone
their advances, which should lessen
political tension, but this still leaves
them in somewhat uncertain position.
Unless there is TO be a large increase
of traffic, II is a problem as to how
the railroads are going 10 meet fast
growing expenses without an advance
In rates. Already many OF the roads
are showing serious impairment OF net
earnings. Notwithstanding liberal gains
In gross; and unless some reasonable
advances are permitted by forthcoming
legislation, it is certain that the posi-
tion OF some Of the railroads will be-
come unenviably threatening.
