SLAv NEWSPAPER SAYS LAPS LAND
 AT VlADNOSTOK
Russians Claim That Four Thousand Troops Have Arrived At
 Northern Port.

LONDON, Mar. 9.-Details of the alleged landing of Japanese troops at Vladivostock are contained in a Russian newspaper, under date of January 19, which has just been re- ceived here. The paper states that the Japanese cruiser Mikado reached Vladivostoek on January 12, and was followed two days later by more cruisers, with four thousand Japan csc troops. It was explained by the Japanese officers that the sol diers were landed to protect Japan csc subjects and interests at Vladi- vostock.
 The story of the landing on troops is stoutly denied by the Japanese embassy at Petrograd, although it is admitted that cruisers were re- gently dispatched to that port.
 Japs Are Uneasy.
 Advices received from Tokyo state that the Japanese press is evidencing increased alarm over the Russian collapse, the fear being generally expressed that the German menace will spread throughout the whole of the Far East.

Wright, with Furness, his mechanicinn,
rose In the air to beat even the eight

Wherever there Is man who lives

Sailors Collars,

All sailors collars have border rum
ming round them consisting of three
white lines close together and parallel.
In men of the regular British navy these
lines are straight, but the collars of the
Naval Volunteer force have the lines
wavy. 1t Is difficult to say exactly
when the lines came into use or who
first originated the idea, but those who
have studied the question of uniforms
state that the lines represent the three
great naval Victories of Nelson: The

falgar, and are Intended to perpetuate
the memories of these glorious British
triumphs on the sea.

of the vioiIantes.

The papers chronicle day by day the
steady advance of the British soldiers
northward through Palestine. Their
lines extend from the Jordan to the
sea and they are slowly but surely
driving the Turks before them in this
latest. greatest and most decisive
crusade.
If the followers of Mahomet can
make any stand against the followers
of Christ 1t will surely be In the plain
of Esdraelon. one of the natural bnt-
tlefields of the world. 1t Is singular
how some places lend themselves In
evitably to conflict. The plain of Jez-
reel, to give 1t another name. Is one
of these. 1t has been fought over con-
tinually since Thothmes there defeated
the Hittites in the dawn of recorded
history. Jew and Gentle; Canaanite,
Assyrian, BabylonIan, Scythian, Per-
sian, Greek and Roman contested for
Its mastery in the East; English,

times. May the forthcoming be the

the last of the long line Of crusaders.

flicts upon that plain occurred in 1298

of Sisera. The Hazorites were disas-
trously defeated, driven in panic ter
ror down the narrow pass cut by the
Kishon, then In full flood, and killed
or drowned In large numbers.
Deborah made a great song about
the triumph. One stanza runs this
way:
Course We Meroz, said the Angel of
the Lord, curse ye bitterly the inhabi-
tants thereof; because they came not
to the help of the Lord. to the help
of the Lord against the mighty"
No one knows where Meroz lay. No
ruined vestiges remain to Identify It..
There is no other mention Of 1t in the
pages of history. There Is no ground
even for speculation about 1t. Yet Tor
over thirty-two centuries 1t has been
pilloried in its infamy in that immortal
song. Whatever Its prosperity and Its
works, whatever Its hopes and achieve
ments, the loves and hates, the sue
cesses or failures, of its people-they
are all forgotten in the blistering, with
ering condemnation of the singer. 1t
stands as a place accursed forever.
Perhaps Its utter oblivion is the re-
suit of the merited condemnation.
Shall there be written against our
city, against our land. the curse of
Meroz? Shall we apply to these and
to ourselves this slackerS text? Or
shall we come to the help of the Lord
today, tomorrow and forever, in the
great conflict now. and at all times,
being waged In Europe and everywhere
against sin and the devil?
