 Engineers.

 The banquet which has been an an nual affair with the local association for many years, was omitted last year on account of the food regulations. Because of the fact that there was no banquet last year the committee in charge Is making every effort to surpass anything in this line ever at tempted by the association before,
 National and state officers will be present as guests of the local asso- citation. An invitation has been sent to Mayor Wilson, and he has signi- fled his intention of being present.
 This is pre-eminentIy the ladies night of the entire year for the asso- ciation. as it is given over largely for the benefit of wives, daughters and sweethearts of members of the associa ton. Nearly all of the other affairs under the auspices of this or ganizaton are for members only, but at the annual banquet members are allowed to bring their families and friends.
 The committee has arranged for an orchestra, and there will be an in formal dance following the evening entertainment, as a closing feature of the banquet.
 Arrangements have been made to have two vaudeville acts from Po1i's theatre Besides this, there will be several artists imported from New York to provide various forms of en- tertalnnent, not to mention the iniTn- itable Bill Steinke, who will present one of his original chalk talks

"The London Daily Telegraph prints the following account of life in a Turkish jail by an English officer who was taken prisoner by the Turks at GauIpoH after trying to escape from Constantinople. His release did not come until two months later, with the equalization of Turkey:
 You have seriously annoyed the Turkish government" said my gen darme, as he and a, plaincIothes de tective piloted me through the main streets of Constantinople in my shirt sleeves and trousers.
 What is going to happen to us, then? I asked.
 T do not know, but you will be punished"
 Where are you taking us?" de- manded
 I've do not know" came the detec- tive's elusive answer.
 After this we remained silent until we reached the police station. That night found us each in a cell, with gendarmes stationed outside our doors. with the strictest orders that we were in no way to communicate with each other. Here was our diff fculty. The true story of our attemp

not difficult to improvise. I was, in fact, manufa curing some ink out of burnt matches and cigarette ash when an extra ordinary thing happen ed. At the slit in my door, through which the grinning face of one of my guards frequently gazed, appeared the laughing eyes of a young girl.
 An Armenian Benefactress.
 ''Voici, monsieur,' she whisperFd and something tinkIed on the floor. It was a pencil. How many winning smiles she had spent on the guards in order to be allowed this one look at the new prisoner I do not know, but she certainly gave him the two things that at that moment he was in most need of-a kind word and a pencil! I never had the chance of exchanging more than half a dozen words with my benefaCtress, and then she told me she was a Christian, an Armenian. The Turks had put her and her two sisters in prison because her brother had deserted. They were kept as hostages until he should be recaught. They had already been there several months We were kept in the police station only a few days, and then-stiII hatIess. bootIess and coatIess, my companion, without even socks-we were again marched through the streets of Constantinople to the Ministry of War, to be handed over to the military authorities. We were brought before a certain we'll known military commandant, whose reputation for systematic i'll treat ment of British prisoners was no- torious As we were marched sep arateIy across the square from his of fee to the prison one certainly did not look forward to the next few months with relish. A Turkish officer entered our names in the prison reg ister, and we were marched away Il was a critical moment. We turned the end of a corridor and went down stairs. My heart sank within me-1 knew we were in for it then, but next moment was trembling with rage at the tndignity of it.
