An interesting letter has just been
received at the Y. M. c. Al. from for
nner Secretary Phil H, LeNoir regard
ing the campaign for a Y. M. d. a. IN
Albuquerque. It is doubtful If more
interesting campaign has ever been
conducted. 1'ne workers have given
practically all Of their time, in addi-
ton to their liberal cash donations.
Women have called at headquarters
repeatedly and offered their assist
ance. Young boys have given from
IS to $40
After Mr. LeNoir had spoken to the
boys at the High school, incidentally
learning that about 40 out Of 1875 boys
had been in Y. M. c. A. buildings
$1OO was quickly subscribed by the
boys. At Monday noon the total sub
scribed had reached about $55, 900. AL.
though 1t may be necessary to con
tinue the campaign another day every
body feels confident of success, and
the Las Vegas association needs no
longer to feel lonesome and lament
the fact that it is the only Y. M. G.

THE SUEZ CANAL
IS in GRAVE
DANGER
TLRKlsH ARMY is MOVING FOR
WARD WITH OBJECT or
DESTROYING 1T

Washington, Nov. 17.-The eyes of
the civilized world are focused today
on the Suez canal, the most vulnerable
and most important polnl IN the huge
British empire. 1t was just As years
ago today that the canal was opened
to the ships Of the world, and it has
escaped damage during troubulous
times in the Orient. But soday, with
the Turks apparently uprisen and the
defenses of the canal entirely made
quate, those closest to the European
situation here believe the Ottoman
power is moving 70 destroy this great
waterway
The Suez canal nearly 100 miles IN
length, is England's chief line Of COM
munication with Australia, with India
and with her other great dependencies
in the orient, as well as with her ally,
especially at the present juncture,
Japan. 1t is waterway that is even
Of still greater Importance to England,
than the Panama canal is TO the Unit
cd states. Further than this the ex-
pected attack of the Suez canal might
foreshadow a similar move against the
Panama canal, in event the United
States found itself involved in the
war.
That the move OF the Turks and
their German friends is Of a very seri-
GUS character it would be idle to deny
There is abundant evidence that Ger
many has long been preparing for the
present fray; and American military
men concede that one Of her natural
moves against England would be to
incite a Turkish attack on the Suez.
and it is taken for granted here that
The ottoman invaders are picked men,
Differed by Germans. 1t is announc-
ed that the invading force is $4,000
men; but, judging from reports of big
mobilization in Syria the number
available may be ten times that
figure.
In the Arab rebellion Of 1882, which
was brought to close by the bonn
bardment of Alexandria and by the
English victory at Tel-el-Keber, the
insurgents we're restrained from in
juring the canal in any way by old
Ferdinand de Lesseps, upon whose
good will they counted to secure for
them the recognition Of the great
powers of Europe in event of success,
and clemency If they failed England
never gave sufficient credit to de Les
seps for his services, and chose to
regard the canal as adequately pro-
tected.
Today it is doubtful whether all the
warships England could spare from
her Mediterranean fleet would be ade
quate to prevent the partial destruc-
ton by the picked Turkish troops un-
der the leadership Of clever and dar-
