scheduled to be played here next
week, to Greenville.
The Jackson and Columbus teams
will play three games at Greenville,
commencing Sunday afternoon, under
a guarantee to defray expenses of
both teams, and liberal split of the
gate receipts.
In view of the fact that patronage
in Jackson has always been better
than at any other point in league, this
transfer of games away from home be-
cause of poor attendance looks omin-
GUS, to say the least of it.
The board of directors is rather
reticent as the future plans, or pros
poets for carrying the team through
the season. They state that it is sim
ply a question of failing to get sustain
ing patronage at home, and they were
forced to look elsewhere for it.
Reports from other towns in the
league concerning attendance are
equally gloomy and while something
may occur to brighten the baseball
horizon within the next few days, il
is difficult to see how the organization
can be held intact until the finish OF
the season especially if bad weather
continues.

end of their troubles-a grim, huddled
mass of pitiable humanity.
The wildness was out of their eyes
only WEAKNESS was left. Heroic doc
tors were doing their best. but what
fearful fight was theirs, They war
against foe which receives incessant
formidable reinforcement. They can
not hope to win save little fight here
and there. The greatest struggle will
go against them, yet they hold to their
ground manfully and well, against all
the cohorts which the disease hurls
against them.
To go out into the sunshine again
is only to walk through n reverend
ing street of sorrow. Sometimes one
sees food and clothing given to refu-
gees as a dark caravan lights up here
and there with brightness brought by
unexpected joy.
The wastage of this war as seen in
Stamboul is really frightful. Yet
what unrolls itself before ones eyes,
here is but 1.-THE of all
We may be able to look across its
horrors and still see the blue in heav-
en-, but one doubts if there can be
shouts Of victory or JOY bells loud
enough to offace from ones memory
the awful horrors brought from the
desolated countryside by the stream
ing, struggling caravan Of human mis-
cry which pours relentlessly into the
city of the golden hero.
One climbs into Pera again. 1t is
like passing out of nightmare. In
Pera everything is comparatively
peaceful. Handy men of half n dozen
navies have landed and are holding
the embassies, consulates and foreign
schools. 1t is good to see the jolly
Jack Tar in the streets, the MILDLY buy
irg picture post cards and the stall
wart officers, a fine breed of men, in
one service, and then only one in all
the world.
Pera is crowded. It's shops and res.
taurants and cafes are busy. Not only
does one receive the impression that
this is not the city with the enemy al.
most within gunshot. but one also is
soon convinced that this is a people
with no heart for the serious business
on hand-a nation of triflers.

1t would take but little to let the
fullest hell loose there. Let a shell
come screaming over the hill and land
in this camp and there would be a
mad rush into STEAMBOAT, a panic in its
narrow streets, a boundless burst of
horror from end to end of its wide
huddled area.
The partition between safety and
danger is indeed thin. A panic would
be easily raised. In the city the young
Turks plot showed how troubled were
the political waters beneath the sur.
face. 1t is like living on the edge of
a volcano. A death dealing stream OF
terror might come at any moment.
Nor in this incessant, living tide of
outcasts the only side of the wal
which is not for show" Now here
are such hideous sights to be seen as
within the sacred Stamboul mosques
Round the buildings are the refu
gees, many thousands struck down by
the disease which can only mean
death. In Stamboul the great mosque
of St. Sophia is a most conspicuous
feature. The interior is gorgeous, for
the great temples of the old world
were plundered so that the Emperor
Justinian might say, 81 have eXcelled
the work of Solomon" but today the
visitor can scarcely turn his eyes t1
note its treasures and glories of the
carvan centuries. On their platform
the Muezzins rise and fall to family
spoken praying. In the corner of the
room the devout are performing their
religious rites.
Some days ago one would have
watched them, but now there is only
one thing to note. Scattered over the
floor lay stricken soldiers and refu
gees, some dead, many almost at the
