Constantinople, Nov. 17-Moham-
med VI, the Turkish Sultan, has fled
from Contastntinople on a British
warship bound for Malta.
Upon embarking the Sultan empha-
sized that he was not abdicating but
merely removing himself from imme-
diate danger.
The Sultan had bene greatly exer-
.cised oaer his status since the action
of the Turkish Nationalist assembly
at AngoFa early this month voting to
deprive him of his civil authority and
declaring the caliph or religious head
of Islam would hereafter be selected
from the imperial house by vote OF
theagrnad national assembly.
In the face of the filtration of Ma
tionalist military elements into Con-
stantinople and the knowledge that
the Angora authorities would eventu-
ally be in full control in the Turkish
capital, the Sultan and his advisers
have been frankly at sea as to the
proper course for him to pursue. The
bulk of his guard went over to the
Nationalists and Constantinople dis
patches have pictured, virtually al
the mercy of the Kepalists, should
they decide to make a/decent in force
on his palace.
The Sultan wrote to Lieutenant
General Harrington, the British com.
>mander-in-chief, on Wednesday even
ing, stating he considered his life te
be i'm danger and would like British
protection.

quickly translated into a song of ex-

IN ERHAPS no negro song in
r American minstrelsy has ever
attained the popularity of
"Old Kentucky Home" While
stephen c. Foster. its author became
famous for other southern melodies.
this one song of his stands out with
an Individuality which makes 1t diff
ferent. in way, from all others. 1t
oreathes in every line q kind of ne
gro philosophy which is easily un-
derstood. especially by those who
know the negro as he really is It
carries with it a sweep of tender
sentiment. which has always placed
1t among the old southern songs that
will always live.
The one particular thing about all
OF Fosters negro melodies is that the
author. who was born and lived his
life in the north, should be SO capa-

and spent most Of his life there
and in New York city He took up
the study of vocal and instrumental
music at an early age and some of
his most popular songs were written
before he was twenty. For instance,
his "Old Folks at Home" was written
in 1850. and had larger sale than
any other American song up to that
time. He wrote both the words and
music for most of his melodies

of the country. and it always seemed
to me like a gun would give you bet
ter service than cane besides being
handler because you don't half to
check it every time you eat.
The cane as a pointer. Cane car
riers will probably testify that when
their friends comes to town it is
easier to point out the sights to them
with a cane than with the nude fin
ger, but personally I was broughten

nothing except what you point at

For exercise. Cane men may also
claim that they can get more exer-
else walking If they have cane TO
swing as they go. In reply to this
would suggest that they arm them
selves with a SO Id. dumbell.
For fun. No doubt a person can
have a lot of fun sticking their cane
into passerbys, but they's some men
that it you stick them with a can
YOU will get bust in the jaw, where
as IL YOU was to stick them in the
eve with open umbrella, it is twice
as much fun and you can beg their
pardon.
A S something to hold on to. l never
vet seen case where a man that
was going to fall was prevented by
his cane, and on the other hand have
seen lots of cases where the cane
wielder, realizing he couldn't stand
up no longer, would drop his cane and
grab a post or tree.

ciers seems to get enjoyment out of
the noise their cane makes VS.. the
sidewalk or fence. I can only say
to these partys that they could enjoy
themselves twice as much with Il

in each case, namely that one OF the

1 had never seen work.
Now, then in regard to the cane
situation, am not going to carry no
cane without a good reason and SO
far have not been able to find out
from cane addicts what reason they
have got for the habit and in fact
when I have asked them. have re-
ceived in reply no answer unless
