From Aleppo, Syria, comes uie story of a watch-dog who, by his j cleverness and devotion, saved the| lives of a whole family of Armenian! children when the city was besieged j by the Turkish Nationalists last win-' ter. l*he story comes from Mr. George j C. Doolittle, Director of Aleppo forj the Near East Relief, which is oper-i ating among the destitute Armenians I and Syrians of Asia Minor. His letter, just received at the New Yorkj headquarters, of the organization, j reads as follows: "Old Bill, one^ of the two large J watch-dogs at the Aleppo garage, and j faithful as large, has become a dis-j tributor of generai relief. Some time! npro Said, our night watchman, father ! of $ large and increasing family, had j cdrifelto the end of his provisions1 s. ? i cuds knew not where he should pro- j cujSI jthe next meal.

The fight in the senate will be short. The fight in the house was in old fashioned prohibiton struggle in which the throb of the tomtom was again resorted to. Men displayed their passions and their weaknesses. Sreat statesmen who spend hours sach day hunting a drink loudly t*oted beer to its doom. Men who on .hat. snltrv afternoon would have arladly paid $10 for a cold bottle of Budweiser did not hesitate a minute ibout casting their ballots. Representative Tillman, of Arkansas made the most typical prohibition speech. He based his argument in the alleged disinclination of IriBhnen to subscribe to the theories and practices of prohibition. "I love the frish," he asid, "ibut grow sad at heart when I see them asking for this German brew of hell." The prohibition masters sat in the gallery. Representative Hill of Maryland pointed out Wayne B. Wheeler, counsel for the Anti-^Saloon League of America and referred to him as the attorney paid $50,000 per annum by John D. Rockefeller. The prohibitionsts in the house stood on their legs and loudly applauded their strategist. thp Hill wa? finallv naxsed. there was a remai'kafole demonstration hy the victors. They proceeded s if the millinium had been restored ,and all the troubles of the world dissipated forever. The only notable speech against the bill was made by Representative Cochran of NTew York. It was not answered, but, nevertheless, was entirely futile. Southern statesman voted for the bill to the man. The senate will be more sedate. Senators who oppose prohibition regard it as an additional enforcement measure, and will support it, in all likelihood. ^ ^^co Pp}o,\^as the first European traveler to speak off Japan ana ne palled it Gipftngfr.
