Turkish troops who were expected to
attack Suez. Doubtless this Egyptian
expedition will have to be abandoned
because of the success of the Russians
in the rear. The Turkish lines of
communication to both Bagdad and
Suez are threatened. Most of the cities
mentioned above have already been
captured, or are likely to be in the
near future. In the case of Aleppo
this will not come TO pass without a
tremendous battle; possibly one of the
greatest of the war.
Victory for the Russians, however,
means deliverance for the Armenians.
Even the fixing of the worlds atten-
tion upon these cities of concentration
for the refugees is likely to alleviate
somewhat the plight of the Armen-
ian sufferers.
Avengers Pursue Turks
One may easily imagine the dra-
matte reunions that are taking place
between the Armenians accompany
ing the Russians, who had escaped
across the border, and their lxinfolk
whom they find desolate in the cities
captureT by the Christians. Let US
hope that some great writer's are ac-
companylng the Russian columns; for
here is the material for the most thrill
ling kind of literature.
1t is estimated that there are fifty
thousand Armenians bearing arms
with the Russians. These men are
not naturally towards and they have
the fiercest motives to nerve their
arms They know the land in which
the fighting is taking place, and they
have harried the fleeing Turks. Hus-
bands are avonging wives, sons moth
ers and fathers daughters.
Terrible is the toll that is being
taken of the Turks by these avenging
Armenians. They are Oriental Chris
tians and feel themselves to be minis
ters of retribution. They must be
leaven of insatiableness in the Rus
sian army.
Channels For Relief Open
The recent dramatic change in the
fortunes of war brings Russian relief
to the Armenian refugees in Persia
and upper Armenia, and is opening
channels to all the other cities cap
tured. OF course, the disorganization
following military operations intensi-
fies the need, and this is peculiarly an
hour for Armenians to remember that
the national Armenian relief commit
tee has been organized, with Charles
p. Crane as treasurer; his office being
20 Fifth avenue, New York.
If Aleppo falls to the Russians, then
AleXandretta, its port on the Medi-
terranean, will likewise be taken by
the allies, and full, free channels for
relief supplies will be opened into all
of Armenia.
Meantime, despite the sanguinary
aspects of the situation, the Chris
tian world must rejoice that an end
is to be put to the Armenian atroci-
ties by the strong hand of war.

The average person has only a hazy

war and the entrance upon the final

mas direct and an immediate bear
ing upon the condition of the persecut-
ed Armenians. At present the Rus
sian army is within the confines of old
armenia, but steadily breaking out
toward the South and the East and the
West. Momentous events are taking
place behind the battle line, but some
results are apparent.
Ihe first effect of the Russian vic
tory VIII be greater suffering for the
Armenian Christians who are still
within Turkish power. The news that
the Turks massacred the Armenians
at Erzerum ere they evacuated has al
expected that this defeat would turn
the Moslem population in renewed
saVagery upon the Christians and in
tensity the religious issue. Besides, the
fact is generally known that there are
large numbers of Armenian men who
had escaped across the border of Rus
sia and are fighting with the Cars
troops.
Undoubtedly thousands or tens of
thousands of Armenians will be slain
as the result of the fall of Erze-
rum; but relatively this is negligible
alongside of the emancipation that

sacres are apparently the last out

Armenians.
Next will come the relief for the
Armenian women and children who
have been driven across the noun
tains into the desert and into the
cities which are now within the pres
ent or prospective zone of the Rus
sian operations. Urfa, Diarbellir, Bit
lis, Harpoot, Sivas, Marsovan, Mardin,
Mosul and Aleppo are all centers of
of the deported Armen-
ians. Practically the whole remnant
of the Armenian race that is left in
Turkey, numbering something over a
half million, is concentrated in and
about these cities, and all of them
are at present threatened by the Rus
sian forces.

In an instant l understood that
Eliene's Illusions had faded, just as
mine had done, and she had never

his faults and his foibles, and her
