 Major Grantland' entered the car

 moved down the driveway in the

Before us, as we turned around the corner of the house, seemed a wall of, trees and | shrubbery. but Mrs. Lukens darted to an opening in it, and Major GrantIand deftly guided his big car through the passage, though to my wondering | eyes it seemed scarcely wide enough | for a wheelbarrow. Another bit of winding path, and a quaint vine-cov- cred cottage. built after the fashion
 of old English farmhouses, burst upon my delighted gaze. Lights gleamed r from the windows, and the door stood hospitably open, while at one side of the door stood a big, smiling Neg gress.
 "I thought they might need some body to help you out tonight, so I sent over Mandy, who takes care of me- Mrs. LukeEs explained. That was very thoughtful of you, but I know of old the little extra at tentions you give your tenants" the officer replied, and the old woman 's

 Thanks, old man. Just what I
 was thinking" Dicky returned. but I
 fancied there was a slight stiffness in
 his tone, and I wondered if he were foolish enough to resent what he
 might consider officiousness upon the
 part of tho officer. "I'il Back Mrs. Lukens." "I can tell Mrs. Graham's room as soon l see it, my mother-in- her voice. There were three bed rooms described in the plan the wom- an sent us. One or them is a sun parlor and sleeping porch combined with two beds. My son and daugh- ! ter-in-law are such fresh hair cranks that such a room is the only place
 for them. I will take Richard Sec

Our commercialized Christmas.

Christmas Is the decoration day Of
commercial age. Then, as on no
other day, we face with compassion
those who have fallen In our battles
for wealth. For a moment we think
of the thousands of children who have
no share In that easy life we give our
children, and must find the seasons
Joy In the charity dinner. Along with
the barter to which we have debased
our giving within our circle of ac-
quaintances, we play at extending the
spirit of the day to those who are
the pawns of our industrial game. The
Salvation army lass, standing cold and
numb on the street corner, collecting
funds for Christmas baskets for the
poor, reminds us of the wreckage left
in the wake of our prosperity. We

YULETIDE THORN TREE SAVED
Blooming Glastonbury, Subject Of,
Beautiful Legends Of Christmas,
Was Doomed to Destruction.

nNE Of the most beautiful legends
~ of Christmas is that Of the Glas-
tonbury thorn. The thorn tree grew
at Glastonbury Abbey. in Somerset
shire, and was supposed to have de-
veloped from the staff Of Joseph Of
Arimathea. According to the legend,
Joseph came to Glastonbury and while
he was resting on hill, afterward
known as Weary All hill, he stuck his
staff In the earth. The staff immedi-
ately grew green and budded, and at
Christmas time 1t blossomed into
beautiful flowers.
One chrOnicler states that during
Queen Elizabeth's reign the thorn had
double trunk, but that somewhat
bigoted Puritan, who disliked the tree
because to his mind it smacked Of
p0pery, started to cut it down, and
succeeded in demolishing one of the
trunks. A miracle rescued the re-
naming trunk Of the tree by causing
chip of wood to fly up and hit the
Puritan in the eye, while at the same
time he slipped and cut his leg.
Later the tree was grubbed up, but
a number Of smaller trees raised from
slips of the original are said to be
owned by persons in the neighbor-
hood.

TURKS FIRE ON
 U. s. HOSPITAL

NEW YORK, July 19.-The Turk ish Nationalist forces in beseiging Marash, Syria, early this year de liberately and continuayy fired on the American college and Near East Relief Hospital and orphanage there according to Dr. Mabel Elliott of Benton Harbor, Mich, who was ir charge of the hospital during the three weeks attack. t
 Dr. Mabel Elliott, who has now returned to this country, with Mrs. Mabel Power, of North Hero, Vt, Miss Helen Schultz of Reading, Pa, and Miss Minnie Dougherty of Hol- yoke, Mass, told an eye witness story of the attack, directed against the American population.
 The slaughter of men. women and children was horrible, she said, and the pillage of houses barbaric. In one Armenian church, 1500 per sons were killed-only 22 surviving the attack on it-she said.
 Of fleeing column of 5000 Ar menians, mostly women and children driven from the beseiged city, Dr Elliott said only 2y20O reached their objective, Islahie, but 75 miles away
 Many Buildings Fired
 "The whole three weeks of the seize the firing from housetops and windows never ceased" she said. "The Turks fired many buildings all over the town, and from our win dows we could see columns of smoke rising first from one part of the city and then another, every hour of the day and night.
 "The largest Armenian church first sheltered some 2,500 Armenians of the better class, shop keepers, business men and merchants and their families < They had arms, and they put up good fight. But. the Turks finally fired the church, and forced them out Only p of them escaped with their lives.
 "A communication trench was dug from French headquarters to the hospital by which the French wound ed were brought in to us. They were all Senegalese and Moroccans. The Senegalese blacks suffered frightfully from the cold. We had 900 cases of wounded and frozen feet-mostly frozen feet.
 Churches Afford Defense
 "All over town, the Armenians would gather at the nearest churches for protection, largely because by being concentrated they were in greater force, and also because the church buildings are of stone, and surrounded by high walls, and thus made the best means of defense. It wasn't possible to live a day in a private house as the Turks would fire the house and drive the inhab- itants out. killing them as they ran for shelter. We could see that go- ing on everywhere.
 There were about 5000 Armenians who joined the column and tried to make the march over the mountains to Islahie, 75 miles from Marash, when the French troops evacuated the city
 There was no food for anyone and only a few carts. Practically every body had to walk the whole way.
 Tt was ghastly, incredible night mare. The worst blizzard that Mar ash has ever known caught us.
 Most of the fugitives were women and children. The men stayed be

Ruth Randall's Mother
Tries to Seize Diary
Mother Makes Sensation When

Book Is Hers
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

Special Dispatch TO The Tribune
CHICAGO, March 16.-A coroner's
inquest at which a verdict that Mrs.
Ruth Randall killed Clifford Bleyer
and committed suicide was returned
was thrown into commotion to-day,
when Mrs. Jennie Vale, Mrs. Randall s
mother, attempted to escape from the
room with her daughters diary. 1t
was upon the diary as evidence that
the jurors reached their verdict. The
diary had been brought to the inquest
by the publisher of a morning news
paper.
Yesterday Mrs. Vale obtained an in
junction against the newspaper pre-
venting publication of the last INSTALL
ment of the volume. After the book
was presented in court to-day ques-
tion arose as to it's validity, and the
mother was asked to identify her
daughters handwriting. She picked up
the book and hurried toward the door.
She was restrained by several depu-
ties.
"Get out of the way. Let me go!"
she cried. "This is my daughters book
and belongs to me-"
Her attorneys advised her to turn
the volume over to the coroner, which
she did reluctantly.
