How for Centuries the People Who Were the First ToEmbrace Chris tianity Have Suffered Atthe Hands of the Mos lens.
Copyright. 1916 by The International .
 Syndicate.


 ~ HIS comparatively small race of ~ people inhabiting part of
 Russia and the Turkish Empire ~ has been subjected to persecu- ton for several centuries. At intervals the hatred of the Ottomans for Chris tians or others not followers of Mo. hammed breaks out with a ferocity known only to the Turk. These mas sacres take place notwithstanding the protests of Christian nations and aft CT the promise of the Sultan to give protection to the Armenians in his kingdom.
 During he present war these mas sacres hays broken out afresh and two-thirds of the two million Arme- nians of the Ottoman Empire have either been murdered in their native towns and villages or driven from their homes under what is called "de- portation." Less than fifty per cent. of these ever reached their allotted destination. The rest were kiiied while travelling or died before their arrival from famine or disease. This method of destroying a nation has been practiced in the near East since the days of the earliest Oriental Elm pire. Nebuchadnezzar and Darius set the precedent which was followed by the Young Turks, who had means of carrying out the peculiar method of "deportation,'' which the former rulers never possessed, and the work pro- ceeded with remarkable alacrity-the modern appliances used adding to the horror of the crime
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-11-14

When Abdul Hamid was deposed the Armenian subjects thought that a better day was dawning and for a time all went well but with the open ing of the present war the Turks found another opportunity to get at the Armenians and began by a wholesale requisitioning of private property for military purposes. They first seized the Armenian shops and "deported" the owners.
 In Russia the Armeni joined the army, which further enraged the Turks and they vented their anger on the Arm enians who lived under Turkish rule by making every man of the race give up his arms The men were Photographed as they gave up their weapons and the pictures were the Armenians were fomenting trou- ble. Orders were at once sent from headquarters that the revolution must be crushed.
 "Deportation.'
 Then came the order of "deporta- tion' and the Turks began their in famous work. Men and women were tortured into making confessions that they were revolutionists and their relatives were beaten and maimsd as the result.
 When the soldiers arrived in the Arm enian towns the natives thought them merely a garrison and they were welcomed and we'll treated, but be- fore very long the Turks began their work of deportation" driving the people from their homes. The latter were unable to make any resistance

ments camp for tubercular soldiers at Fort Stanton, N. M.
 Among the many striking subjects dealt with. the following may be men, toned:
 Proper and improper methods of muzzling dogs, in connection with hydrophobia
 The part the rat plays in plague and its prevention.
 Sanitary and insanitary methods of caring for dairy herds, milking, bot tling, shipping, delivering, handling in the home and feeding to the child.
 The securing of an uninfected wa ter supply with the water organisms that polIute it highly magnified.

AA NE may read scores of books A @ and pamphlets upon hygiene W W and sanitation and-maybe-
 " profit thereby; but it depends in large measure upon the mental caliber of the reader. So Uncle Sam, for quite while now, has been pre- senting this important subject to ~the country at large in words of one sylla- ble, so to speak.
 By circulating library of screen pictures, people are being warned against the dangers of careless sanita ton and instructed in hygiene-and it is an accepted fact that pictures make a more lasting impression upon the human mind than do many vol umes of written messages

improvements which some might term

Which item of everyday news Is re-
moved from very brief mention In the
real estate notes by the fact that this
particular house Is the realization of n
dream that came to Haynes in cell in
the State prison at Thomaston, Me-,
where he spent 80 years of his life. Then
his eighth petition for pardon from life

Now he Is "one of Henry Ford's boys"

nate has placed in positions of trust.
Haynes is connected with the employ
ment department.
Haynes was arrested In Rockland, Me,
charged with conducting n gambling
house. A policeman named Robbins was
detailed to guard him. Haynes deter
mined to escape. He threw short piece
of iron pipe at his guard, intending to
stun him while the escape was being
made, but the end of the pipe struck Rob-
bins in the temple and the officer died
four days later.
Haynes was found guilty of murder and
was sentenced to life imprisor ment.
He was released July 20. 1913, on his
eighth petition. On July 3. 1914. he Sc
cured employment at the Ford factory.

Tomorrow morning begins the last chap
ter of the most expensive and longest
drawn-out trial held In these parts-the
Banana Trust suit wherein the Blue
fields Steamship Company sued the United
Fruit Company for sl5.000,ooO damages,
The case has been in the United states

The jury was not in court today for the
session was given over to legal argu-
ment, in which George Wharton Pepper.
speaking for the defendant, asked Judge
Thompson to give the jury binding IN
structions to render a verdict in favor OF
the United Fruit Company.
If this is not done-and 1t isn't likely
that after the 10 weeks of testimony the
Jury will be deprived of framing It's own
verdict-the final chapter will be begun
with the arguments to the jury
These arguments will take two days, 1t
Is Judged. Unless plans are changed, the
likely method of procedure will be an
opening argument by John s. Hummer
the Chicago lawyer who has led the at
tack for the Bluefelds Steamship Com
pany: then Moorfield Storey, of Boston,
will sneak for the United Fruit Company;
then Francis skunk Brown for the plain
tiff and Mr. Pepper for the defendant.
Judge Thompson will probably deliver
his charge on Thursday or Friday. MIR.
