Finally it was provided, when Kate
Jordan wrote Secret Strings" a ro-

BARNES WILD ANIMAL
 CIRCUS COMING SOON

The big, sensational, thrilling number oa the program presented by the Barnes Wild Animal Circus, is lion act, in which twenty-four full grown, jungle bred African lions are assembled.
 The twenty-four man eaters are turned loose at one time in the big steel barred arena in the center of the tent, one lone trainer in their midst. Herr Louie Roth is the 'man-a trainer of lions of inter- national fame. and the control he exercises over the ferocious beasts is certainly remarkable.
 Crowding his way among them, armed only with a small whip, he proceeds to put the animals thru a number of different poses and pyr- amids: mounts one of the animals on high pedestal and then strad- dles the snarling animals back; feeds another raw meat from his naked lips; places his head in a lions mouth; arranges the entire lot in great pile on the floor and lies on the top-most one.
 Should anyone attending the show not desire to witness the many thrilling wild animal acts, they can turn their attention to the features in which large troupes of dogs,

Waning of the Turkish Crescent

While the fate of Turkey hangs in
the balance, her destruction threat
ened by the alliance of two countries
whose past rivalries preserved to her
what she has in Europe today says
a statement just issued by the Ma
tional Geographic Society. 1t is inter-
esting TO go back and follow her
down through the centuries that mark
the waxing and the waning Of the
Crescent in southeastern Europe.
In 1890 the map of Europe was
vastly different from what it is to-
day Practically all of what is now
Greece and European Turkey was
then the Eastern Roman empire.
Constantinople was its capital and
lit was in control Of the Dardanelles
and the Bosporus as much as Turkey
has been recently. Russia at that
time did not approach nearer than
$50 miles of the Black sea,
Across in Asia, south Of the east
ern half of the Black sea, was the
sultanate Of Iconium, and east Of the
Mediterranean and in eastern Africa
v ere the dOmlnions of Saladin.
AS the years went BY the forces OF
the Crescent gradually extended
themselves through Asia Minor and
before the passing of many genera
tions they were laundering at the
gates of Europe across the Bosporus
and the Dardanelles In vain did
Emperor John VI appeal to Europe
to help stay the tide, and in 1853 the
cloud that had loomed up across the
horizon of the east for several cen
turtles descened upon constantinople
and southeastern Europe.
With a foothold in Europe the
Turks realized that they could main
tain It only by a process of expansion
And European politics at that time
just as in all the centuries that have
succeeded until now, prevented Chris
tian Europe from uniting against Mo-
hammedan Turkey.
But the several countries of Eu-
rope were too busy with their own
particular affairs and too jealous OF
one another to unite in checking the
Ottoman invasion. The result was
that by the middle of the sixteenth
century Turkey included all Of the
Balkan peninsula, Greece, Moldavia,
Pennsylvania, Bosnia, Herzegovina
and that part of Hungary east of a
line drawn north and south half way
between Budapest and Vienna.
AS the generations passed, however,
Turkish power in Europe began to
wane In her stock-taking after the
treaties Of Utrecht and Rastadt, Tur-
key found her European dominions
shrunken considerably as compared
with what they were in the middle Of
the sixthteenth century. Hungary

New sea law Advocated.

ITHACA, N. Y, June Is.-That
stronger military forces alone cannot
secure the rights of the United states
in a national crisis was the opinion
expressed here at the opening Of the
conference Of international relations
by Normal Angel, noted English
peace advocate and author.
American rights can be protected
only by, among other things" he said,
"a radical form of sea law that inn
plies an International law and some
means Of enforcing 1t more effectively
than than taking sides in a war in
which both sides may be violating 1t.
II America means really to defend
her rights safety and interests, to
say nothing of her dignity, she must
prepare for taking her part in the
better organization of the world
