the sympathy of the Mohammedan
world and putting them in the frame
of mind has meant such loyal support
To Britain. ii the war.
"For the M-ohanmedan is tremend-
ously intelligent. They were quite
shreWd enough to put these two cases
side by side and appreciate the con
ltrast. It may be imagined that ire
mendeusly deep influences were at
work to cause the Mohamedan people
not only to differ in their sympathies
in this war, but to be willing to take
up arms against each other. After
this bonlbarding of Rheims Cathedral,
so strong was the feeling in India
against joining the German side in
the war that an Indian Mohammedan
National League was formed in Luck
now where / was living, and these In
dian Mohammedans sent many cable
messages to the Turks, urging them to
keep out. When finally it was an
nounced that Turkey had Joined Ger
many, Mohammedans in India said:
Well, this is q political war, 1t is in
no way a religious war and we will
not be drawn in
at is an interesting proof of their
loyalty to England that they not only
failed to join their brother co-relig-
ionists in war, but that they have
turned out so enthusiastically under
the British flag to fight against them.
1t is an irony of fate that it should
be a Mohammedan army under Brit
ish officers which is today taking,
winning sthe Holy Land away from
the Turkish Mohammedans.
Il recall as incident which Illus
trated the prompt, unuestioning 10y
atty which individual Indians have
shown. There In Lucknow there was
an Austrian druggist from whom !
had happened to buy my drugs for
ten or twelve years. He believed, at
the beginning OF the war. that In
dams sympathy would be with Ger
many. One night he was playing
tennis with a couple of Mohamedan
gentlemen. and during the game he
made remarks which showed his
strog pro-Germanism. They finished
the game, but as soon as it was over,
these Mohammedans went directly
to the office of the British commits
sioner in Lucknow. Inside an hour
his home was in the hands OF the
British army. BY midnight he was
on his way to an internment camp.
In his home they found blue prints
of every British fort in India. He
was an important German spy, and
his conversation on the tennis court
had evidently been q feeler, to find
out how the land lay

Huns Block Own Game

Bombarding Rheims Cathedral by
the Germans did more than destroy
this sacred old treasure house of
worship and beauty. More than any
thing else, it shattered the possibility
of a Holy War Of all Mohammedans,
united under Germany's ally, Tur-
key, against the Christians, upon
which the kaiser had pinned his
hopes.
Bishop Warne. who had been a
Methodist missionary in India for
80 years. returning a few days ago
in connection with the Centenary eel
ehration of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, says that India, in common
with all the civilized world, stood
aghast when she heard of the bonn
bardment of Rheims Cathedral.
What kind of people are these
Germans?" asked the native Indian.
They have no respect even for places
of worship, no reverence for God
Himself. If they came down here they
would destroy our mosques and vio-
late our sanctuaries, too" BY this
wanton dissertation, Germany classi-
fled herself in India as a barbarian.
ASIDE from every other considera-
ton" said Bishop Warne, 1T was a
tremendous blunder on Germany's
part. If the kaiser had succeeded in
organizing the Holy War he dreamed
Of, aligning 81 millions in India with
the-MeAammedans of Turkey against
the Allies, he could have annihilated
a large number of English and other
white people scattered through India,
and he woold have had the inestimable
advantage of a friendly element in
India,
But if the kaiser had had any n
of Indian psychology, he would have
realized that this was a fatal mistake.
An incident in Cawnpore a few years
ago might have given him warning. 1t
was decided to straighten out some of
the important streets of the city. One
Of these streets ran past a Mohamme-
dan mosque and ran across the ex-
treme corner of a great prayer plat
form which stretches out in front Of
the mosque 1t was agreed that it
would be out of the question to cut off
the corner of this platform to make
way for the street. But the govern
or Of the Urfted Provinces had ruled
that the stree rau be made straight.
AS a compromise, it was decided to
tunnel under the corner Of this plat
form and let the street dip under 1t
and come out on the other side. The
upproar of protest that this o~ccasioned
might well have occasioned a revo-
luton. ii, after considerable disturb
ance, the Viceroy himself had not
come to the city and reversed the rul-
ing of the governor. The fact that the
viceroy did make this concession,
an Wdas willing to give this recogni-
tion Of sacredness Of their holy place
accomplished a great deal in winning
