$4,000 British, 10000 Italian and 100,-
900 Greeks. The Turkish regular army
of $4,000 men is disposed with 1900
men in Europe and $4,000 in Asia.
About 60 per cent of the Aslatic forces
are said to be pro-nationalist. u.
The Turkish threat of war in case
of expulsion from Constantinople is
chiefly bluff" in the opinion of mill
tary experts who have returned recent
ly from that region. Officials dis
counted the likelihood of general
Moslem uprising in protest against
driving the Turk from his "holy cities"
London.-With The Turkish situation
still in tangled shape it was considered
useless for the peace conference to at
tempt to proceed to the completion of
the peace treaty. 1t is expected that
the conference will mark time on Tur-
key at least until the allied high COM
missioners in Constantinople report on
the memorandum forwarded by their
governments.
The memorandum to the commits
sioners at Constantinople instructs the
commissioners to take most firm at
titude with the new Turkish govern
ment, and at the same time requests
Information as TO the best method OF
procedure should Il show of force, or
actual force, become necessary.
The report that the allies intend to
raise 10000 troops in England for the
Near East has caused comment in all
quarters. This comment is generally
adverse.
So far as ascertained, the only well.
defined point is that there should be
no show of weakness. If it becomes
necessary to employ force, the Occupa-
tion of Constantinople would be only
part of the scheme. The conference
has fully considered the necessity of
protecting thousands in Asia Minor
should the Turk be reused over the
action taken by the allies.

ing was completed. to this place he
gathered together the several tribes of
serpents and venomous creatures, and
drove them headlong into the Western
ocean. From hence hath proceeded the
exemption Ireland enjoys from all poi
Sonous reptiles"
Sollnus. who wrote few hundred
years before ST. Patrick arrived in Ire
land. makes mention of the fact of
lreland's freedom from all venomous
creatures. but assigns no cause for the
exemption. The Venerable Bede, In the
eighth century, notices the same fact.
but says nothing of st. Patrick In this
connection.
Donat. bishop of Fisulae, near Flor
ence. who lived IN the seventh century,
wrote Latin poem describing his na-
tive country, Ireland, in which he re-
fers to the absence of snakes from the
land and frogs from the lakes of this
favored isle. A translation of the poem
Is subjoined:
Far westward lies an Isle OF ancient fame.
By nature blessed and Scotia is her
name:
Enrolled In books; exhaustiess is her
store
or veiny silver and of golden ore.
Her fruitful soil forever teens with
wealth.
With gems her waters. and her air with
health
Her verdant fields with milk and honey
flow.
Her woolly feeces vie with virgin snow,
Her waving burrows float with bearded
corn.
And arms and arts her envied sons adorn
No savage bear with lawless fury roves,
No ravenous lion through her peaceful
groves,
No poison there infects. no scaly snake
Creeps through the grass. nor frogs an
noy the lake:
An island worthy of its pious race.
In war triumphant. and unmatched in
peace.
This enthusiastic. expatriated Irish
saint of the seventh century mentions
the exemption above noted, as among
the many blessings enjoyed by the
highly favored isle. Had Donat be-
lieved that st. Patrick had been the
active agent In securing this boon to
Ireland. 1t is improbable that he would
neglect to state the fact.
In his Confessions" st. Patrick lays
no claim to miraculous power of any
kind unless 1t be, as the instrument Of
divine grace In the conversion and
Transforming of sinners, whereby they
became the children OF God. 1t is not
known that there was any other au-
thority for the story of st. PatrIck's
banishing the snakes. but Joceline.
