FIRST OF WORLDS MOSQUES
Interesting Legends That Are Con
neeted With Famous st. Sophia In
constantinopIe.

Famed throughout the world for It's
beautiful architecture. the mosque OF
st. Sophia has legend that acquires
sudden interest now" writes a Euro
pean correspondent Of the Daily
News. "Originally the mosque was
a Christian church. The priest
was in the act Of celebrating mass on
that memorable 10Th of May, 1453,
when Sultan Mohammed rode his
horse into the sacred edifice, follow
ed by his victorious Turks, and be-
gan slaughtering the Christians. The
priest fled from the altar, passing
through a small door behind 1t, but
when the pursuing Turks reached the
spot, intending to follow the priest,
they found but a blank wall-the door
had disappeared, and all traces OF the
fugitive were gone. But the story
goes that when once again the mosque
OF ST. Sophia becomes Christian
place Of worship, the wall will open of
its own accord and reveal the secret
door out Of which the aged priest will
step forth to conclude the celebration
of the mass at the altar.
Another legend, recounted even BY
the Turks themselves, tells OF two
monumental candles built into the
apse Of the mosque. On every high
Christian festival these candles arc
supernaturally set alight. When these
candles are quite burnt down into their
sockets the Turkish domination will
be over, and the mosque OF holy wis
dom will be Christian church once
more. g6S3
The Balkan allies are now wonder.
ing how far the candles have been con.
sumed, and hoping that the present
year may witness the fulfillment Of
this ancient prophecy
