DR.. Ludwig was then given an OPP
portunity to ask His Majesty what he
thought OF the conduct of tho German
and ustro-Hunga rian troops.
II would thank all of you If you
would say for me that my admiration
for the German troops in the western
and eastern theaters OF war Is so great
that 1t is impossible for me to express
in words my high opinion OF their valor
and efficiency Concerning their COM
mander-in chief. Emperor William,
can only say that We in Turkey pray
that he may enjoy the best health for
many years"
His Majesty confirmed that he had

Iron Crosses. first and second classes.

American newspaper men had wit

Il value the opinion of neutrals
highly" said His Majesty, and am
pleased TO learn that you intend re-
turning to the Dardanelles. l wish
to avail myself of this opportunity
to express my greatest satisfaction
that relations between the United
States and Turkey are so cordial"
y slight movement of the Sultans

with another hearty handshakc, and n
few minutes later they again slipped
coffee and smoked cigars with Saiia
Pasha.

PLEASED THAT TURK
HAD GIVEN COMFORT

That Turk aad IL such an hour o.
stress found time 10 comfort another
seemed to please His Majesty greatly.
To some words to that effect the Sultan
added:
proper word. my young friend We use
the word "liismet' only in relation TO
the smaller events in life. X YOU were
eating an orange, and one-half OF II
should fall to the ground just when you
were about TO put II into your mouth
that would he an occasion for the use
'of the word kismet.' But in matters
Io; life and death. it is more appropriate
TO use the word 'kadcr' That word eN-
presses exactly what the old man
wanted 10 convey. II means that our
fate : in the hands of superior force,
and that what is TO happen Will hap
Iucn no matte: what we ourselves may
do The idea is known among YOU as
llatalism, | believe. 1t is very good
one, because confidence in the supreme
land resignation 10 our fate mean
great deal in life. Formerly we Turks
believed in II altogether But we have
come to realize that n belief in kader
alone will not 10. We must work"
His Majesty then asked for some ad-'
French ship Bouvct and the British
ship Irresistible. That the former had
gone down within three minutes
brought an expression OF sorrow to the
kindly face Of the old man, rs II he re-
GREETED that so many human beings.
nearly 500, had persisted without the
slightest chance TO fight for life. There
was another reference to the conduct of
the Turkish soldiers in the coast de-
Tense service.
1t has been said that there was a
strong factor OF luck in our victory of
March Is, which made it so complete
and great said His Majesty. But we
have a saying in Turkish which runs:
Luck is infatuated with the efficient ="
The translation OF what His Majesty
said next may have been a little faulty.
Either that or irony was intended. 1t
was this: His Ma jcsty says that he
finds il very unjust that the allies want
TO force the Dardanellts and take Con-
stantinople just 10 import foodstuffs
from Russia Then His Majesty con-
tinued: But our troops have. shown
their ability and Willingness to do their
duty. l am speaking here not alone of

When the aide-dc-camp had translat-

on behalf of himself and the others
expressed his pleasure of having been
granted an interview. To tho repeti-
ton of this in Turkish His Majesty lis
tened attcntivcly. nodding in apprecia-

been translated.

of it as short and TO the point as pos
sible"
For about fifteen minutes the Associ-
ated Press correspondent gave sort of
private lecture on the operation Of the
allies. Now and then His Majesty would
put question. What had been the
conduct OF his soldiers on the vari-
Gus days: had the populations of
Tchanak kale and Iiald Bahr suffered
much: what had been the effect of the
terrific noise upon the mind of the cor
respondent-had he been afraid? These
were some Of the things that interested
the Sultan very much.

conduct of our troops in the recent

Miles Here and There

In England a mile means the "a.

means 2.240 yards, and in the High.
lands 1t may mean the old Scots mile
OF 1876 yards. In Switzerland the
hardy mountaineers think sl59 the
proper thing, even when, as generally
Is, 1t is very much uphill. The Swiss
is the longest mile of all. being fol.
lowed by the Vienna post mile q,
s,2so yards. The Flemish mile Is
$3.50 yards, the Prussian s.2S7 wards
and In Denmark they walk S,244 wards

turks are satisfied with 1926 yards
and the Italians shorten the distance
Of mile to 1856.
