Trieste In History.

AS a business city, Trieste, now
looming so large in the public eye,
since Italy declared war, is tremen-
dously successful, and therefore large
ly modern. Its harbor facilities are
the best that modern technic can de-
wise, and many millions Of dollars have
been expended in carrying their I'M
dertakihg to conclusion. In 1910 near
ly 10000 vessels, representing a total
Of about 100000 tonnage, entered and
cleared at the Trieste harbor. The
population numbers 229,475, Of whom
about 10000 are Of Italian descent.
Tho new part Of the city mas been
built largely upon land reclaimed
from the sea; its streets are broad and
straight and its buildings are substan-
tial and modern in architecture. Ter
geste (Trieste), the Roman COLOMBIA
ton of this coastland, was probably
established under the reign of Yes
pasian. After the decay of Rome,
Trieste experienced a checkered
course for centuries. 1t was captured
by Venice in 1903. Its people strug-
gled with the Venetian conquerors for
the next $50 years, and finally, in 1882,
they placed themselves under the pro
lection Of Leopold III of Austria.

Lady Erench,a canteens.

Lady French is at the head Of the
canteens which are being operated in
England for the benefit Of the mum.
ton workers. The need for such can
teens is caused by the munition fac
tories taking on such large number
of workers that often 1t is impossible
for these extra hands to get living &C.
commodations within a reasonable dis
lance of the factory.
In some towns where the manufac-
ture Of munitions is being rushed to
the utmost capacity OF the factory
there are no restaurants. In others
the facilities for supplying meals is
far below the demand. So the women
of England, under the leadership Of
Lady French, have undertaken to sup
ply the need, to do for the munition
worker what the Army Service corps
has done for the men in the field.
Good food, freshly cooked and we'll
served, is supplied to munition work
ers at a minimum cost, which means
that the workers pay for all they get,
but not enough for the canteens to
make a profit.

DISEASE WILL FOLLOW WAR
Certain That It Must Be Years He.
fore Travellers Can Tour Europe
In Comfort.

Wars terrors will not be over in Eu-
rope with the ceasing Of the lannon's
roar. A more deadly foe-disease-
will stalk the ravaged lands after the
cessation Of hostilities and it behooves
the traveller to think of this before
planning his trips abroad.
The miles of trenches in northern
France and Belgium will be the breed
ing places of germs. Every battlefield
is already a pest region. The debris
OF thousands Of ruined towns in west
ern Europe, unfortunate Poland and
Servia are making hotbeds of pesti-
lence. It will take months to purify
the water Of streams supplying these
regions before disease can be stamped
out
The great war hospitals are being
equipped to battle with the coming
scourges and the stats of all are being
enlarged with doctors and nurses from
every land to fight the conflict that Is
to follow the dawn Of peace
Typhus and cholera, the two most
dreaded Of epidemic diseases, 1t is
predicted by eminent surgeons and
psychologists, will ravage Austria
this summer and undoubtedly reach its
near neighbor and ally, Germany.

one town alone, it is said, a hundred

affection. Smallpox and scarlet fever
are present in some communities and
cholera is expected with warmer
weather.
According to cabled dispatches ev.
cry community on the main lines Of
travel Is in the clutches Of typhus.
Smallpox is also prevalent in Turkey
and Palestine. Thus there remains
but little territory in Europe immune
from the threatened danger. The star
