"HE SHOT AN ARROW"

THE capture Of tne important Span.
i ish fortress Of San Lorenzo by Sir
Henry Morgan, the famous English
buccaneer, was not due to his expert
generalship as much as II was to q
strange chain of circumstances over
which he had no control.
In his command were number of
pirates who had fought well for the
cause. One day, during the siege of
the fortress one Ct these men was
pierced in the side by an arrow. The
cutthroat pulled it from his flesh vow.

the arrow, he crammed it into the bar.
rel of his gun, took aim and fired. The
missile went sailing over the fortress
wall and was lost from view. 1t was
merely gesture of revenge. No one
dreamed of the consequences.
But the cotton was kindled by the
powder which In turn set fire to the
matched roof of building inside the
fortress. The Spaniards were franti-
cally trying to get the danes under
control when the creeping fire reached
the powder magazines. They exploded,
bursting part of the walls, and Morgan
rushed in to capture the stronghold.

STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER

IN NAPLES, ITALY, In 1896, John
l Philip Sousa read a three-day-old
copy Of the Paris edition OF the New
York Herald. In 1t was brief dis
patch saying that David Blakely, man
ager of Sousa's famous band, had
dropped dead in his Office. That meant
that the bandmaster must assume all
the responsibility for the arrangements
Of his next American tour.
Hastily caacslling the plans that he
and Mrs. Sousa had made for visit
to Sicily, he booked passage on the
first ship for America. AS he paced
the deck of the S. s. Teutonic, sad
dened by the news of Blakely's death
and his mind filed with the burden Of
the task ahead, an uncanny thing hap
pened.
Sousa became aware of the rhythmic
beat of playing band-just an imagi-
nary band that was making music in
his mind. Throughout the voyage
across the Atlantic, that Invisible band
kept on playing, playing. Never for a
moment was it silent and it always
played the same tuneI He tried to
think of other things but the theme
Of the melody echoed and re-echoed in
the back of his brain. Psychologists
today might claim that this was "com-
pensation" the reaction Of q
creative mind after severe shock.
But whatever the reason for it, Sousa
made no attempt to set the tune on
paper while he was aboard the steamer.
When he reached New York and found
that mystical band still playing on and
on, he could resist 1t no longer. He
sat down and in few minutes had re-
corded the all-too-familiar measures of
that composition. In his spirited auto
biography, Marching Along" Sousa
has written the fact that not a note
Of that tune has been changed from
that day to this. 1t was the STARS
and Stripes Forever" known all over
the world today and the most beloved
of all the compositions of the March
King"

Pekmez May Be Called
Maple Sirup Of Turks

Blissfully ignorant of physical laws
and chemical equations, the villager
pours into his pekmez a liberal por-
ton of superstition and semireligious
lamentations. The itinerant drummer
is on tap night and day during the
season to announce to the community
that Hadji Baba's run is finished and
Husseyn Agha's first kettle is boiling.
Equally depended upon, even If
less evident, are the muttered pray
ers and "Bismillahs" of the village
patriarchs, who gather around the
steaming kettles to swap yarns Of
the bumper crops of pekmez history.

Fully six months before the New
England farmer brushes up his sugar
camp and begins hanging his pals
on the sugar-maple trees, the Turk
ish villager in the grape-growing pro-
vince of Gaziantep is producing SUI
gar, for home consumption, by very
similar process, says Herman A.
Kreider of the American board of
commissioners for foreign missions
in Istanbul, Turkey.
Gathering as much as 300 pounds
of grapes from single vine, the
growers fill a natural-rock wine press
to depth of feet and sprinkle on
this mass of grapes a coating of
crushed limestone from the surround
ing hills.
While two or three men tramp the
press for several hours, the juice
flows into 75-gallon copper kettle
which never cools from the begin
ming to the end of the season.
After the first boiling the Juice is
dipped out as rapidly as possible in
to one or more wooden troughs hav-
ing plugged holes at various heights
in the end board. The grosser i'm
purities are here precipitated by the
action of the limestone, and at the
proper moment the hired ''pekmez"
specialist, locally spoken of as "The
Professor" draws out the upper, and
later the second plug, allowing the
cleared liquid to flow back into the
original kettle.
During the second boiling the sur
face impurities are skinned off and
at the proper stage the strip is
ladled out into empty kerosene tins
or into small wooden drums especial
ly made for the purpose. Here, aft
er some hours, the strip sets to the
consistency of very thick molasses,
in which state it is transported and
stored.
The market price of pekmez varies
according to the abundance of the
SldpS AdIFcSl, UuI Tie UeSL SlIup Is
usually available at about one-third
the price of graduated sugar. A still
cheaper quality, used by the produc-
ers themselves, is the product of a
special pressing of the shells and
husks at the end of run" this be-
ing done by means of an antiquated
type of screw press.
The presses and boilers are perma-
nent establishments in the villages,
and are operated day and night dur
ing the grape harvest season, but the
kettles are so expensive that they
are owned only by city men, who rent
them to the village press owners for
the season.
A special chewing sweet is pre-
pared by introducing starch in the
course of the second boiling. While
still soft this strip is painted in a
very thin coat on blankets and left
on the housetop to dry to quite
leathery consistency.

PIGS is PIGS

"pIGs is pigs" and they're also trou-
ble-makers. No less than twice
did they seriously affect the diplomatic
relations Of nations and once they al
most brought on a war.
In 1S41, Monsieur de Saligny was
French ambassador to the Republic of
Texas. One day, pig belonging to an
Austin hotel keeper named Bullock,
strayed into M. de Saligny's garden.
One Of the ambassadors servants
abused the pig. Whereupon Bullock
proceeded to horsewhip the servant.
De Saligny insulted Bullock and Bull
lock insulted de Saligny with the re-
suit that the ambassador demanded his
passports and left the country. Dip
lomatic relations between France and
Texas became strained and it required
an apology from President Lamar Of
the Lone Star Republic to restore peace.
More serious was the pig incident
that troubled the peace between Eng
land and the United States few years
later. On one of the tiny San Juan
Islands in Puget Sound lived an Amer
lean and an Englishman. One day the
Briton shot one Of the Americans pigs
and furious quarrel resulted. But
they finally agreed to settle it in court.
But which court-British or Ameri-
can? Despite the treaty of 1916, boun-
dairy lines were none too clear, espe-
cially on this little island. So the dis
pute grew worse over the matter OF
Jurisdiction. Civil officers were drawn
into it, then the military. Troops were
modified and it looked like war. By
this time the pig was forgotten in q
controversy involving citizenship, boun-
dairy lines and international law.
Eventually it was settled by arbitra-
tion-with no less person than the
German emperor acting as arbiter In
. dispute that started over a pigl
