PLACE Of PILGRIMAGE
SECOND ONLY TO MECCA
Geographic Society Describes Me-
dina, Arabia, Known as "City
of the Prophet"

The National Geographic Society's
war geography bulletin. issued today.
thus describes Medina, Arabia. where
the Turks are reported to have been
signally defeated by the Arab revolu-
tionists commanded by Sheriff Abdul
dab:
THE City of the Prophet The Per-
fumed and The Illumined' are the
names by which Medina is known to de-
vout Mohammedans. AS place of
pilgrimage it is second only to Mecca,
the birthplace of the prophet. Although
two or three travellers and students
have evaded the Gordon established by
the faithful the city is closed to all
on-Mohammedans. for here is buried
the great leader and here also is the
holy tomb of his favorite daughter. the
famed Fatima.
Population Variously Estimated.
"Medina's population is variously
estimated. the extremes being $4,000
and $4,000. 1t is one of the chief cities
of Hejaz, the most desolate province of
Arabia, and is more than 500 miles
southeast of Damascus and $50 miles
nort\ of Mecca. These three cities are
now Aonnected by a railway, the con-
structi\n OF which was begun by the
Turkish sultan, Abdul Hamid. in 1900.
THE oply outstanding architectural
feature of the city is the great mosque
with the mausoleum adjoining. Be-
meath THY crescent-crowned green
dome of THY latter building is supposed
TO rest the body Of the prophet, unde-
filed by d/cay. his face turned ever
lastiG-~~ toward Mecca. The legend
--at the coffin was supposed to be sus-
pended in midair by means of magnets
is now said to have been western in
vention. having no place in the tradi
tons of the faithful.
While its squat, burned brick houses
with their monotonous fiat roofs are un-
impressive and far from picturesque.
yet the setting Of the city, amid luxu-
RANT date palm gardens and extensive
corn felds. Is beautiful. The fortifica-
tons consist of solid stone wall from
thirty to forty feet high, with thirty
towers. making Il the principal strong
mold OF the Hejaz province. In the
angle formed by the wall in the north
west section of the city is castle
where even in peace times the Turk
maintains strong garrison.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.

PARIS, July 2O-The unexampled
conditions of hghting before Nerdun
have developed new type of soldier
called the couriers of Verdun." They
are the men who maintain communica-
tien between the troops in the midst
OF the melees and officers commanding

which they dart with orders or after
information is a desolated zone, where
nothing but thick smoke. sometimes
black, sometimes white, gives appear

time of an infantry attack. it is. to all
appearances deserted; the sharpest
eve discovers no movement of human

by freshly stirred earth but no one
sees the hand that stirred it.
Occa sionally a form is seen gong
over this desert land something after
the manner of a rabbit, bounding into
sight out of the herbs and above un-
even ground. to disappear again; leap
ing from obstacle to obstacle, from
ditch to ditch, from shell hole to shell
hole as it approaches the front line. at
times vaulting. at others crawling, and
sometimes kept motionless for consid-
cradle periods by showers of projectiles

The risks are so great for these mes

almost at their goal when the shell of a
German three-incher struck one of
them full in the chest. His comra[~

war that the imported foodstuffs win
only serve the needs Of the population
Of the territory occupied.
Accordingly the American relief
might have been realized several
months ago with the same provisions
as in northern France had not the
government of Great Britain prevented
its accomplishment by clinging to its
unfounded and impracticable condi-
tionS.
Evening star., 1916-08-02
Further Negotiations Useless.

In this way it has become practi-
cally impossible to convey a consider
able amount of foodstuffs from Amer
ica to Poland by the expiration of the
term set. as the end of the relief work
is October l. Accordingly. further ne
gotiations are devoid of purpose.
But on the other hand, thanks to the
intense culture of the land affected by
the imperial government by using the
means available and every effort possi-
BILE in the occupied territory, and owing
to the favorable harvest prospects. q
relief action after October 1. 1915. can
apparently be dispensed with. The fact
that the population of Poland and
Lithuania will to some extent suffer un-
til the new crop is lodged and later on
will sometimes have to put up with
straitened circumstances can there
fore not be laid to the blame of the i'm
perial government, but to that of Great
Britain"

Telephone Lines Impossible.

Not a telephone line can resist the
inee ssant bombardment that digs up
the soil and levels all feldwork along
the whole line in front of this fortress;
consequently, to assure communications
between the front and the rear is
carrier pigeons are very uncertain, and
optical signals are insufficient for va
rious reasons Nothing is certain eX-
cepting the man himself, and to trans
nit information and orders across that
beaten field requires something ex-
traordinary in the way of man. He
must be an athlete with good lungs
and above all, he must have stout
heart
The courier of verdun is unable to
use the communicating trenches where
he would be out of sight of the enemy
because that line is crowded always
with soldiers going to or from the
front line. with wounded being carried
hack. with men of the commissary
department carrying provisions to the
men on guard. That is too slow a
route for the courier of Verdun: he
must take his chances of being sighted
and hit-above ground.
The first formidable obstacle to pass
is the zone that is beaten by drum
fire." where eight-inch, six-inch and
four-inch shells are bursting with for
midable explosions, sending showers
of shrapnel over the whole zone. In
going through this ordeal the courier
sees everywhere the spectacle of
death. stumbles over corpses, some
times runs into a cloud of poison vapor
before he has crossed it; once through,
he is within range of the smaller Ger

three and a half hours, basting every
fifteen minutes with butter or salad oil
and light sprinkling of salt. Water
should never be used, as il is important
that the surface of the meat should be
brown and crisp, and il is wise pre-
caution TO cover the ears with pieces Of
buttered paper 80 that they will not
burn. Serve on a bed Of deep green
parsley, alternating with whitish-green
celery tops, surround the edge of the
platter with border of steamed spiced
apples, hang around the neck a garland
of cranberries, and after removing the
wood from the mouth insert a small
rosy apple. This is one of the most
ornamental roasts that the housekceper
can serve.
STUFFED MUTTON OUTLETS
For six large mutton chops use the
following materials: Four tablespoon
fuls of chopped mushrooms. one Of
minced onion, one generous tablespoon
full Of butter. one of flour. three OF
stock, one teaspoonful of minced pars-
ley, one Of salt. pinch of pepper and
tablespoonful of celery salt. Cook the
butter and onion together for five min
utes, then add the mushrooms and sea-
soning and simmer for four minutes
longer. Gradually mix In the -four that
has been blended with the stock and
stir and cook for four minutes more.
Remove from the fire and cool. Have
the chops cut one inch and a half thick
