HAD PLEDGED SAFE CONDUCT ColonsI Woodward Saw Wounded Men Killed and Frenchmen Shot After Surrendering at Ivaoua tlon of Urfa. Aleppo, Syria.? The slaughter of the little French garrlaon which evacuate Urfa on a promise of safe conduct by the Turkish nationalist troops after the town had been besieged for 61 days, Is described In the diary of Gen eral Woodwsrd, accountant for the American Commission for Relief In the Near East, who wa? an ey? witness of the massacre. He escaped and returned to Urfa after several hundred French soldiers had been killed or made pris oners by tribesmen. The French were ambushed by tlfte tribesmen in violation of an agreement made by Nemlk Kffendl, who came from Angora as the Turkish national ist government's representative, the diary says, and promised the French men safe conduct If they would evacu ate. At that time the French had only four days' rations left, and had eaten all their horses and mules, and evacuation was considered Inevitable, as the garrison was greatly outnum bered by the enemy. General Woodward says fn his diary that he saw Turks killing the French wounded on the Held, and that he and an officer of (he gendarmerie saw pris oners killed by the Turks after they bad surrendered. "Namlk Effendl agreed to protect the Christian population, provide a guard of gendarmerie and n transport of CO camols an$ 30 _hfirses If the French would leave," the diary says. "The garrison evacuated at 1 :8G o'clock In the morning. Attacked From the Roar. "We. were suddenly attacked fronf the rear- and from both flanks while we were moving as a column spaced al regular Intervals. The order was given to deploy, and this was carried oul Into the hills occupied by the enemy who almost surrounded us. "The .attack lasted for two hours, the Turks having 2,000 Irregular troops and one machine pun. Tlrey made n special target of our transport, doubt less for plunder. As the? firing- In creased other tribes Joined in the at tack. Our rear guard was caught in a trap from which few escaped alive "With the transport destroyed,, the rear guard, cut off and our line of de fense broken, wo could only surrender, and an officer of gendarmerie was sent with- a white flag. I accompanied hltn , with an American flag. We were con tlnually fired upon as we approached (lie enemy, asking for his commander. We were told there was no com mander, as the troops were Irregular and finally we sent messengers to the flanks and at 10:20 the firing ceased' but another party of Kurds arrived almost' Immediately anchthe firing was reopened. I asked the chief of th< gendarmerie to return to Urfa with me, which we managed to do by a side trail. "I saw Kurds killing the wounded and saw soldiers killed after they had surrendered. Emir Effendl, an ofilcei of the gendarmerie, also Witnessed this, and he had one man marched away as a prisoner. I could not find out what became of him. Almost Wiped Out. "Of the French detachment of 50C only 132 soldiers and one officer re turned to Urfa. The remainder pre sumably were killed." After the French' evacuated Urfa the conditions there were reported greatly Improved for the American relief workers, as supplies of water and fuel had been cut off and provisions were nearly exhausted. The Turks held a general meeting of rejoicing over the departure of the French and declared In favor of "a government of the people, by the people and for the people." They de clared they no longer recognized the Ottoman government, promised protec tlon to Armenians, and decided not to disarm them. Miss Mnry Caroline Holmes, who speaks the Turkish lan guage. attended the meeting, and at her suggestion the Turks Included an Armenian deputy In a delegation se lected to go to Angora to report the evacuation of Urfa. On April 21 a party of American re lief workers, Including Mrs. Richard Mansfield. Was uneventfully escorted by the Turks from Urfa to Aleppo. Miss Margaret Weller of Bloomsburg, Pa., who remained at Urfa, was hit by a spent ball during the slego, but her Injury was very slight. Lion Llos Down With Lamb. Harrodsburg, Ky. ?

ABOUT THE LAST ARGUMENT After That It W aa Time for Hubby to Oat Buay and Buy Her That Davenpdrt. What she desired was a new daven* port Shf had talked davenport until her husband's soul was tried, She made It her business to be carefully scruti nizing the furniture advertisements every time he taught her reading the newspaper. She left pictures of davenports ly ing around on the table. She sent for furniture catalogue* and he always found the pages open that* contained davenport Illustrations. The other evening he glanced over her shoulder as she was going through her regular evening performance with the newspaper. "More davenport advertisement, I suppose," he murmured a bit sarcas tically. "Ko, John, dear," she. replied In sim ilar vein. "You would buy me^thls with far less persuasion." Then he took a second look at the j paper. She was reading a coffin com pany's advertisement Somewhat Humorous "Ad." nil! Nye, known in I1I3 day as a J humorist, owned a cow which ho want- , ed to sell, and put nn advertisement j In the paper which read like this: "Owing to Ill-health, I will sell at my residence, In township 19, range 18, according to the government survey, one plush raspberry cow, aged eight years. She Is of undoubted courage and gives milk frequently. To a man who does not fear death In any form she would be a great boon. She is very much attached to her present home with a stay chain, but she will be sold to any one who will agree to treat her right. She is one-fourth short-horn and three-fourths hyena. I will also throw a double-barrel shot gun, which goes with her. Her name is Rose. I would rather sell her to a non-resident." Set Aim In Ufe. A definitely fixed goal Is a chal lenge to ingenuity.* That la especially true for the trail blazer. Haphazard goals are apt to be the avenue to the way of least resistance. Attaining them is merely a matter of finding the easiest short-cut to them. With a rul ing purpose it' 8 different. Every pos sible motive and means is marshaled to gain the end. Oldtlme methods are seen to fall when most needed. So the youthful dreamer puts his wits to work to discover new methods to gain the point. And It's surprising what an amount of unrated genius there Is waiting to be called forth by a great occasion. ? Exchange. Autumn Leaves. The Infant school is out, and a crowd of tiny children come chasing each other down the road, langhln# and calling, running in the wind, th%lr cheeks rosy, their eyes dancing and their hair flying. Just as they reach me a big gust of wind shakes the trees above their heads, and quantities of yellow, brown and golden leaves come swirling down over and around them ? and children and leaves all whirl away together. Whereupon I paint a mental picture, all russet and amber and little laughing faces, and call it "Autumn Leaves," for not all our hap piest pictures get placed on canvas. ? Christian Science Monitor.
