clause Will not attempt to force Il
vote on the question until there Is
evidence of an organized filibuster
-8!nst the measure.
1t is proposed by the Administra
lion forces to prevent as much as
possible any antagonism of the op-
ponents because of the close align
ment of strength.
Democratic Senators opposed to the
repeal charged day that instruc
tions were sent from Democratic ma
tional headquarters in New York
during the last campaign to speakers
in Pacific Coast States and other far
West States to play up the free
tolls pledge of the Baltimore plat
form This argument will be used
during debate to meet the statement
of Administration leaders that the
free tolls plank was not an issue dur
ing the campaign; that it was placed
surreptitiouslv in the Baltimore plat
form and had no influence upon the
result of the election.
Both sides continue their confident
predictions as to the final vote, but 1t
is conceded generally that the situa-
ton at present is most uncertain. The
present Administration majority is
estimated variously from two to
twelve votes.

Mersina, now important port on the Cilician
coast. Shortly, this trip will not be nee
essary, for Alexandretta will be linked with the
Bagdad railway.
Once at Mersina, we can follow the railway
through the heart of the country leaving this link
with civilization here there in order to visit
those places which claim particular attention.
A railway ride of about hour from MerSlna
brings to Tarsus the birthplace of the apostle

at Tarsus that Mark Antony received Cleo
patra, who sailed up the river in magnificent
barge disguised Aphrodite. 1t of the
three great universities of the pagan world 1t
lies the Cydnus river, about eight miles in
direct line from the coast. In st. Paul's day the
river navigabe far the city, but it has
been allowed to silt up, with the result that only
very small boats approach the city now.
From Tarsus we have somewhat rough ride to
Bulgurlu, where again strike the railway. Our
road is romantic one, over the Taurus mountains
and through the famous Cilcian gates. The latter
is a pass in deep rocky gorge. Here band of
engineers making a track for the railway,

Konia, passing over what is likely to become an
exceedingly fertile plateau. Konia is in the center
of great cotton-growng district and is surround
ed by luxuriant orchards of plums and apricots.
This is ancient Iconium, very old city and said
to be the first place to emerge after the deluge.
Inc railway mas wrought great changes IN InIs
ancient city. Modern European houses are spring

trade has increased four fve-foId, and there is
a general sense of alertness. Portions of the old
walls that surrounded the city are still to be
seen, well Of its old towers. St Paul
visited this city twice in company with Bar
nabas and the other time with Timothy. 1t was
here that the apostle taken for heather god
and had much ado to prevent the priests Jupiter
offering sacrifices to him.
In the end, however the great missionary had
to fee the town and seek refuge at Lystra which
lies little to the south and is easily reached on
horseback
About thirty miles southeast of Lystra lies the
site of Derbe, in St. Pauls day important from

LAUGHTER WILL COME BACK
World Is Not Always to Stsgger On-
der the Overwhelming Desc
Iation of the War

Some people wonder Why theaters
are running during the awful world
tragedy which is being enacted in Eu-
rope. The reason why they ought to
run is well stated by John Palmer in
the Saturday Review:
Let the theater still exist to re
mind US that the war viii pass; that
laughter will come back to the world;
that art viii one day be restored
that we shall not always stand at the
edge of ruin; that it is not nee
essary to dwell forever with grave
faces, self-consciously in the shadow
Of distress. Thereby we shall help tC
keep our country in sane mind an6
good heart in these coming days an6
destroy in its cradle the infant as
sumption of our entertainers that on'
theme alone is able at this time Il
possess US.
This war viii never, so long as i
lasts, be in a less degre the command
ing fact of our lives. But we nee'
not, therefore, act like stunned crea
lures and play continually with on
fixed idea We have to keep our sens
! Of proportion. We must hold on {
our humor and keep it bright; an

uate A young bachelor Of arts was
recently put to work running small
printing press in the back room of a
bankers Office. He was to set up and
print a number Of circulars to be sent
out to customers of the house
When the work was finished, it was
found TO differ decidedly from the
standards of spelling set by the late
Messrs. Webster and Worcester. The
young man was summoned to an au
dience with his chief. The interview
was not pleasant, and the young mar
showed as much by his face when he

LAST WOODEN SHIP
Relic of the Old Type of War Vessel
Passes to New Jerseys
Naval Militia.

The Adams, the last of the old
wooden ships OF the United States
navy. which from 1908 until last fall
was the training ship of the Pennsyl-
vania State Nautical school, has been
turned over to the New Jersey naval
militia for their cruise OF the Maine
coast, we read in the Philadelphia
Ledger.
This relic Of the "old navy" is one
OF the most picturesque ships now
afioat. Bark rugged, with her tow
ering masts and high black tOpsides
and the guns peering through her
ports, she is an object of admiration
and curiosity in every port she visits
She was built in 1874. Until June,
1889. when she went to Samoa, she
had an uneyentful existence. During
the controversy with Germany she
was the sole defender of the AmeTi-
can flag in that territory. She then
was sent to the Pacific coast, and in
1894 went ashore in Bering strait
She was floated, repaired, and brought
back to the United States. She then
went out of commission, until 1908,
when she was turned over to the
Pennsylvania State Nautical school.

these cities, where St Paul and his comnanions
preached and founded churches, still exist today
and what they like. Alas many of them are
in ruins, and others are but oId-worId sIeepv vii

population and little of their ancient glory and

But has set in and these old Bible
cities of Asia Minor are again to become prosper
GUS and regain some of their lost greatness. -
Altogether Paul made four great missionary
journeys. Three of these were taken from An
hoch, in Syria, which may be described as the
Apostles headquarters, the last being his voyage
from Sidon to Rome as a prisoner. Antioch, there
fore, became the cradle of gentle Christianity 1t
here that a Christian community was for the
time formed Independently of the synagogue, and
here the members of the new sect were first called
Christians
In the days of st. Paul that is in A D. Al to go
over eighteen hundred years ago now this his
toric and memorable city of northern Syria was a
delightful place to sojourn in The ancient writ
called it Antioch the Beautiful and 1.-The
Crown of the East" 1t boosted of a population of
half million souls and was the capital of the old
Greek kings of Syria The banks of the River
Orontes that flows through it were lined with
stately and noble palaces while it contained many
fine public buildings and works of art and some
beautiful synagogues.
1t amidst this magnifcence and splendor
that the first Christian church arose, which
through its disciples, carried the gospel north
westward into Asia Minor to the islands of the
Great sea, to Macedonia, Greece and Italy
Pauls first journey taken in company with
Barnabas and relative named Mark and lasted
about two years. His first objective was the is
land of Cyprus, lying of the Syrian coast now
under British administration. We can picture the
little band crossing the bridge over the Orontes
and making their way past the plantations to
Seleucia, the ancient port of Antioch where they
embarked Inc port is now in ruins, though the
walls inclosing the basin are still preserved
From this very harbor, then Paul and Barnabas
sailed to commence the first great evangelistic
tour deliberately planned by the Christian church.
After tour of the island the preachers sailed to
Perga, in Pamphylia, Roman province on the
south coast of Asia Minor, travelling thence to
Antioch in Pisdia. To follow them step by step
is unnecessary here, as their journeys are record
ed in the Acts. Rather we will note how we can
best today visit these cities and places which St
Paul saw and wherein he preached during the
three trips he made into this wonderful country
