Although it was midday when we arrived and
the sun beat down merciessly, many of these
tired pilgrims had spread a small scarf or shawl
across sticks and were sleeping in it's shade.
Still they continued to flock into the city, carry
ing palm branches in their hands, until all the
highway round about Jerusalem were lined
with these weary but devout people.
One could not help plying them, while at the
same time admiring their wonderful devotion.
Thousands Of them had walked hundreds of
miles through Russia and across inhospitable
Turkey, being treated in the latter place more
like dogs than human beings. II there is one
thing above another a Turk hates, something
that arouses his Indignation, it is
the sight of these Christians, devout members of
the Greek church, plodding afoot across the
sultan's domain with but one thought in view
: Ito kiss the tomb of Christ. You can only
marvel at their religious zeal which enables them
to withstand the ~tortures Of a long journey and
the abuse of the cold-blooded Turks.
Fortunately, our quarters had been reserved
long in advance, otherwise we, too, would have
been forced to camp among the pilgrims beside
the highway. AS these pilgrims come in sight
of the Holy Land they fall upon their knees, fac
ing the Jerusalem they love, SO simple and beau
tiful is their faith.
Jerusalem's places of interest during the Easter
week are many. They are made memorable
through their association with Christ on and
prior to the day of his crucifixion. We first Wis
tied the Garden of Gethsemane, where. so many
wears ago, he went to pray, Not my will, but
thine" This is really a very small plot Of ground
about twenty FIVE feet square, containing many
flower beds and some extremely old olive trees.
Always kept in good order. on the occasion Of
Easter this hallowed garden is made glorious
with beds Of flowers in full bloom.
There is also the VIA Dolorosa, or the street
of sorrows" through which Christ passed on his
way to Calvary. Along this street are the varl-
o,s stations of the cross, recording the incidents
in this memorable journey.
Then there is the Church OF the Holy Sepul
cbar where the elaborate Easter ceremonies are
held This church is in reality a massive build
ine containing vast ~congeries OF churches,
chanels and shrines in which the various sects
worship. There are within these walls thirty
seven so.called "holy places although II must
be said that there Is a grave question as 10 tne
authenticity Of many OF these.
"a we approached the outer gates OF this
church we we're annoyed by the painfully incon-
pruors note which was struck by the deafening
medley caused by the yelling and screaming of
dealers in PARTICLES dc piete," or, in other words,

We were told that much better order had
been maintained on this Easter during the holy
fire ceremony than ever before, and we coulu ouI
wonder what some of the past ceremonies were
like. since five persons were removed on stretcn-
ers while we looked on, having been severely IN
iured by being pushed down and trampled on Dy
the struggling mob.
It was interesting but by no means comfort
ing to note the hatred exhibited on every hand
by the Turks.
We watched the line forming for a procession
where the Turkish soldiers were drawn up as
a guard, much as city policemen keep back the
crowds during a parade in this country. When
ever a Turk got in the crowd he was well handled
and assisted to a vantage point if he cared to
see, although for the most part the Turks would
not deign to look upon it. Whenever one of the
Christians was pushed by the crowd into the line
of Turkish soldiers he was promptly and effective

but rather surreptitiously, the soldier stared

Covert cloths, shepherd's-checked
and striped suitings seem to be divid-
ing honors in tailored suits for spring.
1t is hard to say which is most IA
vored. All of them are developed in
many smartly cut and perfectly tail
ored plain suits that are far and away
the most elegant of all street dresses.
Some of the new models are what
may be called severely plain, allowing
themselves only machine stitching
and buttons by way of garniture and
finishing touches. Buttons this sea-
son are made of the fabric of the gar
ment in many elegant suits, but in
unusual shapes. In an equal number
of designs they are selected from the
various composition, bone or pearl de-
signs. But severe lines and finishing
do not characterize all the new spring
tailor-mades.
The coat-suit shown in the picture
belongs to the plain well-tailored class
that should be found in every woman's
wardrobe. 1t is just right for the bust.

The skirt is cut with wide over
Tapped side seams forming a sloping
panel down the front. 1t is cut with a
sufficient flare and is ankle-length. In
many of these skirts the waist line is
high, and suspender tops and pockets
at the sides give them an air of util-
ity that is very snappy and smart.
The coat in this suit follows the
lines of the figure rather more close
ly than is the rule in spring styles.
It has a panel back and plain coat
sleeves finished with a band and two
buttons at the wrist. At each side Of
the front an applied strap, pointed at
the end and decorated with a button
and simulated buttonhole, suggests a
belt.
The suit is worn with a soft silk
waist having a square turnover collar
at the back. This has a "V"-shaped
opening at the front showing a dainty
collar and vestee of lace or net worn
under it. Cloth-top shoes and a pretty
hemp hat with trimming of ribbon and
cherries complete a spring costume
that merits no criticism.

perhaps by the change Of attire. One
point especially noticeable Is that
women's visiting cards are somewhat
smaller than usual, due to the fact
that they must ft into smaller mesh

likewise n size smaller than those

because Of society's superstition they

those ancient byways that wind
through hill and dale leading to the
holy city, we were deeply impressed
by the pilgrims--not only by their
numbers but by their very air of
patient eagerness-as they trudged
the dusty roads footsore and weary,
As we neared the city we knew that
Jerusalem was already filed to over
flowing with these pilgrims, because
the roads leading into the city were
lined on either side with crowds of
these pilgrims camping in the bitches,
with their pots and pans and bedding.

ton He Attended.
Sardou in order to be present at the
execution of Tropman in January, 1875,
spent the night before with La Ro-
quette, the prison director. In his de-
scription he says:
AT daybreak the guests went out
upon the cold, bleak execution place,
where the guillotine had already been
erected. The bedraggled crowd, which
had spent the night in drinking places,
sang ribald songs and from time to
time shouted for Deibler, the execu-
TONER, who meanwhile was explaining
the mechanism.
"The basket in which the head was
to drop was brought, and while looking
ut it was Mortified to see the lid arise
and human form emerge. Don't
worry said Deibler with smile; that
is only my wife, who wanted to see
the execution, and I chose the simplest
way to secure good place for her."

ALLIES OR ENEMIES.
There Wore No Neutral Nations IN

There Wore No Neutral Nations In
Europe In Ancient Times.
In ancient times nations at war class
ed their neighbors as either allies or
enemies, writes Herbert w. Bowen.
Neutrality as an international relation
was not recognized. There were no
neutral rights and no neutral duties.
International law itself existed only in
very rudimentary form.
It was not until after the fall Of
Rome and until the nations Of Eu-
rope had become numerous and were
asserting and exercising comparatively
equal prevention and power that their
interests became so conflicting that
they perceived the necessity Of estab-
fishing and supporting a system Of law
that must be applicable to them in
their relations one with another Gro
thus (15S3-1G45), the so called father Of
international law, published in 1925 his
famous book, "De Jure Belli ct Pacis,"
which defined and described the laws
Of war and peace. OF neutrals, whom
he called middlemen in war, he had
but little to say.
Bynkershoek, who was born twenty
five years after the peace of West
phalia was signed and who was one of
the most distinguished successors Of
Grotius, was, If not the first, at least
among the first of publicists to define
and explain neutrality authoritatively
and to give to it permanent and
prominent place in the law Of nations.

Baseball Gossip &
By ".SCORE KEEPER"

How Rsckinpaueh Stayed With Majors.
Roger Peckinpaugh is one Yankee
who owes debt OF gratitude to Frank
Chance. The Cleveland club had Just
about decided that Peckinpaugh would
not do for them and was preparing to
send him to the minor leagues in 1913,
when Chance came along and offered
Lelivelt and Stump in exchange for
him. Joe Birmingham accepted the
offer with avidity.
II Peckinpaugh had gone back to the
minors it is doubtful if he would have
been able to get back to the major
league again, for a man must win his
way upward with bat rather than with
glove. Peckinpaugh is brilliant field
er, but light hitter in any company.
The fielding averages show him just
behind Mcbride, and his task was a
hard one on account Of the weakness
Of Fritz Maisel, who covered little
ground to his left. Peckinpaugh's bat
ting average was only .223, but this
does not show his usefulness, for he
drove in more runs than any man on
his team and stood fourteenth in the
American league in this respect. The
club got its moneys worth out Of
Peckinpaugh last season, for he played
in 1877 games and did not miss an in
ming.

board only from 8 per cent to 80 per cent
Of the crews necessary to man them in
case of war.
There are also six second line battle
ships. one armored cruiser, one second
class cruiser and fourteen torpedo boats
which are in the condition technically
called Gin ordinary" These vessels are
manned by from 10 to 20 per cent of the
regular complements-just enough to pre-
vent them from rusting to pieces.
Further, there are three second line bat
tleships, three second class cruisers, one
third class cruiser, one destroyer, two
monitors. four torpedo boats, six gun
boats, one transport, one supply ship, one
fuel ship, one repair ship and eleven con-
verified yachts which are out of commits
sion altogether.
These vessels are in nearly every case
hopelessly out Of date. They are. to all
intents and purposes unserviceable for
war purposes. Several of these gunboats,
the absence Of suitable vessels being used
by the naval militias Of the various states.
Need $4,000 More Men.
To provide proper complement for all
vessels of the navy which could still be
made useful for war purposes would re-
quire an addition to the present force
allowed by congress Of about 18, 900 men.
Meanwhile the problem is becoming more
difficult as time goes on because of the
vessels under construction which must
shortly be provided with crews
In regard to ships and their equipment,
including guns, engines, range finders,
etc., matters are, on the whole, in excel
lent shape: AS units the vessels in COM
mission are we'll built. we'll designed and
we'll cared for, and compare in all types
favorably with the vessels Of other DOW
ers! In fact, I believe that they are
better.
In few particulars. such as the lack
OF sufficient torpedoes, there is room for
great Improvement; also in regard to the
lack Of certain auxiliaries and the insuffl-
ctent number of scouts much can be done
to make the fleet better balanced.
But the navy has felt that while It
greatly desires well rounded fleet in the
material sense it would be the greatest
possible mistake to secure such a fleet at
the expense of the main seagoing fighting
craft-that is to say, our battleships and
destroyers. This is because makeshift
auxiliaries can be improvised in an emer-
gency, whereas battleships must be plan
ned and commenced at least three years
beforehand.
