Evening Things Up.

He was a sturdy little chap, just
turned three, and his manners were
so mature that the man on the porch
next door stopped reading TO listen
to the very sophisticated play of the
up-to-date young man and his five-year-
old sister. They played at telephoning
and going for automobile rides; they
initiated the chug-chug of a motor boat
and babbled freely of monoplanes and
aircraft generally and the man, while
interested, was disappointed too.
There are no more babies, he told
himself, nothing but lot of junior me-
chanicians That young one ought to
be talking of alleys and realers and
kites and tops.
Just at this stage the offending one
walked over and said: please, mister.

lied, dentist. The consulate 10 vacant,
except for a very efficient vice-consul,
Mr.. James Levack, Briton. But he
is called 10 stand sponsor for various
wanderers who claim the protection
of the American flag. The latest is a
man who is soldering in a missionary
hospital, claiming to be both the
Messiah and an American citizen.
The latter claim has been proved
bogus, so the consulate is relieved of
him.
Recently one of Sir William Will
cocks engineers telegraphed from
village in the desert that party of
Americans were destitute there, hay
ing been robbed by the Arabs. Re
lief was straightway sent and the
people brought to tlis city. The party
comprised a man, his wife and his
grown-up daughter, from Oklahoma,
who had set out to the Holy Land and
the Far East to convert the heather.
They were of one of the peculiar sects
that believe in going out on faith, and
SO the family had beaten its way from
point to point. The story of their
having been robbed by the Arabs
proved to have been a pious fiction to
secure relief. The consulate fed and
sheltered the family for time-and
the man was fastidious as to food-and
then sent them on to Bosra, where the
missionaries sent them on to India
Thus, by being passed on from point to
point, the beggars will really accom-
plish a journey around the world. OF
course they attempted no mission
work; like some more pretentious en-
terprises, they considered their own
upkeep and comfort the principal
charge upon what funds they could Sc
cure.
Various persons working" their way
around the world on wager get -
Bagdad. One Canadian undertook t.
go around the world on roller-skates.
and he asked the consulates to sigu
his papers attesting his presence. But
when it was suggested that he give
roller-skating exhibition, as means
of raising money. instead of begging
it outright, he naively confessed that
he had left his roller skates behind,
several months before. but that he ex-
pected to get another pair before he
reached Canada. A Frenchman was
walking" around the world, and he
left the raft that was bearing him TO
Bagdad, a few miles above the city,
that he might enter on foot; but he
was never heard of again.

memories, he asked me how 1 would
like to see Philadelphia adhere to the
customs of hundreds of years ago, all
for the sake of being picturesque.
There are few travellers that get to
this out-of-the-way corner of the earth.
but those that come few years
hence, on the Bagdad railway, will
find the bazars gilded, the streets
named and the houses numbered, and
a policeman standing under the cleo
trio light at the corner to ask the
business of every amateur Raschid.
The Prosecuted Heiress.
are enough unusual incidents to be
met with in the course of week to
satisfy an observer. Justice is still
done on some other basis than that of
the West. A certain Armenian
maiden, fair of face, favored of for
tune, and an orphan, has been expert
encing Bagdad law of late. She want
ed to be protected from her relatives,
who were trying to steal her fortune.
She took her case to the authorities
and turned over the papers. The au-
thorities in turn gave them to the
girls enemies. Likewise the ma
chinery of the law was used to try to
marry her to the Armenian secretary
of certain great man, presumably
for the great mans purposes. The
maiden fed to that haven of the dis
tressed in the East, the British, and
she was smuggled out of the country
to India, where she now is, the Bag
dad officials meanwhile making all
possible effort to compel her return.
Another episode, of pleasanter
kind, came to my observation while
here. / had brought down the Tigris
river with me an Armenian peasant,
who was glad to take service to a re-
gion where there might be a chance
for work. He was an Armenian mas
sacre orphan, of the 1896 crop, and his
whole family, he believed, had been
slain at that time. He had not been
in Bagdad a week before he discov-
cred that his older brother had es-
capped destruction as marvelously as
himself and was living in the city, as
confidential servant to a wealthy CON-
patriot. This rich man was so affect
ed by the strange reunion that he took
my servant under his wing also, thus
assuring his future. | learned the

Bagdad, City of Romance, Now Trans
formed-The New Era In Turkey lie
Making Over the Home of "The
Arabian Nights" Tales
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS.

Bagdad, Turkey.-All that is ro-
mantle and oriental is embodied in
the name Bagdad. Over this city once
ruled Haroun err Raschid, the caliph
of the immortal arabian Nights"
Here Persia and India meet with Ara
bia and Syria and Turkey proper,
while a handful of foreigners repre-
sent the western trade and ideas that
are SO rapidly conquering the East.
A few of the old buildings, dating
back to the time of the caliphs, re-
!, main, but they are rapidly making
p~ay for more modern structures. The
q narrow streets, and the changeless
pazars are still here-but they are
changing. 1t is now possible to ride
in carriage from one end of Bag
dad to the other, If one knows the
streets; and this would have been i'm
possible in the days when Haroun
and his grand vizier prowled about
the narrow and tortuous and mysteri-
Gus highways.
A new Haroun is on the scene, and
making changes so rapidly that the
Arabs who come to town after an in
tervai of only a year. rub their eyes
and cry in amazement. Mash
AlIah!" The most obvious of the
transformations being wrought by
Nazim Pasha, the new Vail, or COVER
nor, is the driving of modern high
way straight through the center Of
the city. The dust of demolition fills
the air, for nothing stands before the
march of progress. Legal technicali-
ties may not preserve a mans home,
if it is on the line of the new high
ways.
Nazim Pasha has autocratic author
ity. He refused to accept the post un-
til he was given tree hand over all
the affairs of the city and the desert
round about. His word is law. He has

promised to be good. / can testify to
the quiet and good order which now
prevail in this famously turbulent re-
gion. After traversing a considerable
portion of the desert can report that
no violence was offered. nor did hear
aught else than that everything is
quiet-though how long even the
strong hand of Nazim Pasha can keep
1t so is a matter of conjecture, for
the Arab is a restless and lawless per-
son by nature.
Making an Army Overnight.
The rag-tag and bobtail which used
to pass for an army in Bagdad has
been caricatured times without num-
Aber. The men were literally in rags.
JThey went barefOoted. They were
)IIaostly without weapons. Ill-fed, ILL
paid, ill-treated, they made more trou-
BILE than they Guelled. Now almost
overnight. Nazim Pasha has changed
all this. He has organized an entirely
new army, with progressive Young
Turk officers and foreign drill-mas-
tiers. He has made in Bagdad the
uniforms which all of them now wear,
and he has equipped every man with
q modern rife. He is also taking the
weapons out OF the hands of the peo-
pie generally, so that only the repre-
sentatives of the law shall be armed
The soldiers are becoming smart" in
appearance and discipline. Their set
ting-up exercises are as rigorous as
those of the German army.
There is need. For no one knows
when the fires that are forever smoul-
dering in the desert may break forth
into flame, and the revolt in the Yemen
may spread any day to this region.
As 1t is, some inter-tribal fighting has
to be winked at. A despot must have
at hand means to execute his DEGREES.
The terror that now fills the lawless
at mention of Nazim Pasha's name
may not be allowed to diminish.
A benevolent despot is the new
governor. He is resolved to bring in
law and order, and to establish the
western civilization. 1t used to be
that robberies and attacks upon pedes-
TRANS were of nightly occurrence in
the city Last month there were only
four cases of robbery and the culprits
were arrested. When / spoke to
Nazim Pasha of the regret that the
