TYPICAL OF EAST City of Adana Redolent of Fifth and Smells Condition* and Sight* 8uch ae Would Make an Occidental Samiritan Faint, Though Inhabitant* . Pladldly Enduro Them. We stopped for two days at Adana, flir scene of the great massacre^ of hm??. when more than twenty thousand Armenians ww murdered, and where again In 11111% many thousands wore de ported mid many ?hdn. Adann is KM) feet above tlie sen nod \v& had lu en nt 7,<XH> feci a few hours earlier. so that the heat appeared to be torrid, writes MnJ. Gen, .lamca (?. Harbord In the World's Work. Adana Is the principal olty of (.'U^ cla, a vast alluvial plain, one of the most fertile regions In the^world. Its heat In the dry season Is terrific.

What ? motorcar does to a mnlostrlan can he guettted. y Neat* ttio station a group of peasants were making roof tiles ,ln Jhe same manner In which they were made thou sands of years ago. The houses have flat roofs, and people sleep on theiu at night as they did In Blblieajflklmes. 'Phe market and ha /.a r street of Adana Ik typical of life in the Kast, Every sight, sound and smell seems repre ? Rented there. The streets are crooked and vary from fifteen to thirty feel In width. The shops on either side open broadly to the street, and the wares are displayed under conditions that would make an occidental sanltarlap faint. 'Down the street comes a dilapidated victoria of the early '00s with a small team whipped by a wild-looking Turk. .Pedestrians scurry out of the way and dodge In front of a "tin lizzie" driven by a missionary. British slkhs stalk down street btlftly aaiutlng the foreign officers. An Armenian of the French oriental legion strolls along with a su perior air. A small boy peddling lemonade made of limes and carried on his back In a Very dirty Jar with a long spout curv ing over his shoulder tries to sell the Americans a drink. His glasses are carried In a a small rack worn around his waist, and are not cleaned between drinkd, not much at any time. His transactions are not* usually for cash. At an open shop he delivers a drink, takes a piece Of chalk from behind his ear, steps Inside and on the wnll be side eight other tallies makes a mark indicating a sale, and passes on. When he Is out of sight the Armenian to whom he sold the drink, with a melon -choly smile nt the observing Ameri can, steps to the wall, hiolstens thumb nt his Hps, and careful 1 3* erases the last tally mark. Veiled women pick over fruit and vegetables and baggie over prices with the venders. Here and there a small child lies on the stone sidewalk asleep, face downward In the sun and fltejmnrt Tilth." The bazar street ends on the river bank, and one sees the source of the city water supply? The donkeys stand In the stream while the water peddler fills his jars by dipping- among the water buffalo ? the carnbao of Philip pine days ? swimmers dticks and geese. ' The river, a stream 300 yards wide, has a stone bridge, of which tradition says that it was repaired by Emperor Jtistlnlhn more than a thousand yeara ago. Truth and Conscience.

WAR "MYSTERY" MADE CLEAR Men pn (he Lovlithan Now Under Itand How Their Officer ? Detected Them in Smoking. Men who sailed on the Leviathan when she wa* l?elnk' u*ed an a trans port will learn with Interest the ex plana don of a "mystery" of the giant liner In those war days, a mystery which has heen the syg?>Ject of many a mhlnlKlit conference In the lee of the deckhouse. t^ujy recently ? former officer of the laAlatluui told the story. It appears that Mw-rai of the crew sought a jlower hold fat from the haunt* of the orthvrs o;i duty and j thore, believing themselves carefully concealed, they smoked to their hearts' content. BUt ' the ship hat) a fir* d9 tectlon system consisting of a series of pipes , to the holds, through whleh a suction fan Is continually drawing air samples to the wheelho\jse.. Thus the officer on duty there noticed the curl ing wisps of smoke coming out of the | pipe from o:m of t^e lower holds. Spiffing the smoke he dejected the old familiar odor of tobacco.. It wus an easy matter to hurry down and catch the men In the aet and ?tui't them on n round of extra duty, which cured them of smoking aboard ship. They were pusszled to know how the officer had traced them. The hold was way down near the keel, far from the wheelhouso and there had not been another man within many yards of their position. They knew no officer had followed them and they took It for granted that there was no direct connection between the hold and the wheelhouse. And no one en lightened them during many trips to France.? New York ICvenlng Post. SERVED IN ORIENTAL STYLE Magnificent Banquet Given by King Hussein of the Hedjax to Lord Allenby. A banquet given by King Hussein of the Hed.Jaz to Lord Allenby. the British high commissioner, as de scribed by an Arab correspondent of the London Times on March 2, was a striking example of oriental magnifi cence. After preliminary visits and military reviews. In which the Iiedouln cavalry dashed by at full speed, tiring their rifles, the banquet was held In true Arab style in the municipality buildings at Jeddah. On the table, which was eighteen feet broad by thirty feet In length, barefooted waiters dressed In rich Arab costume walked about helping t lie guests, 70 in number, to slices of the Joints of roasted half sheep stuffed with almonds, ripe and spices. Kjich guest had three 'or four plates, and was surrounded by some 20 or 30 dishes ?*f salads. ? fish, roasted chick ens, pi In m of mutton and sweets of all descriptions. The king's hand of musicians played throughout the ban quet. At the end of the feiyd the king's servants handed round silver basins with ewers of scented water for the guests to wash their hands In. Coffee was served In another room while gueists of a lower deirree sat down at "the banqueting table." The remnants of the feast, which were considerable, were distributed anions the Inhahl rants of .Teddah and the crews of the British shlf.B at anchor In the harbo?^ ??Current ~ History. The House Famine. Morris Hillqult was discussing In Albany the heinous profiteering on rents whlth so. mnny New York land lords have been .practicing. "And despite this profiteering," he snld, "houses and apartments are In greater demand than ever.* Well-lo cated tenants have their bells rung two or three times a day by total strangers who anxlmisly Inquire If by any chancy they think of leaving s<>?n.

The windmill has not been general ly found available for tbe generation of electricity because of the Irregular ity of the afr currents, but this hns been overcome by a Swedish Inventor. Instead of being directly connected to the dynamo In the usual manner, the mill-wheel shaft Is geared to _a ) hoisting device, which serves . t'o cie- j vate a two-ton weight to the top of a 1 "?:t-foot steel and wood tower. When the weight reaches the maximum height, It Is released, and. as It falls, actuates tbe dynamo, which Is mount- I ed on u bracket at the ai>ex of the J tower with the iViTH wheel.
