TRIESTE: A PLUM OF THE
ADRIATIC DISPUTE
Ti (yate ih one or the major Adriatic
plums In (llvpu i e between Italy ami
tlu' newly-formed Jugoslav state, the
Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and
Slovenes.
Though Trieste was Austrian, ex
cept for a brief Interval ^toiii the
fourteenth century- un'll the World
war dissipated the Austrian empire,
the city has had a marked effect upon
Italian history. Its chief importance
to Austria was commercial, for It was
the dual nrtmarchy'* only great sea
port.
Tlrod of a double allegiance to
Venice and to Aquleleia. Trieste re-'
quested that she be annexed to A us-. j
trla In KI82. Leopold the pious was
on the Austrian throne. lie was a I
rival to King James of ICngland In i
being "the wisest fool III all Christen- 1
dom." Though he expanded his ter
ritory elsewhere, the only acquisition
of Consequence was that of Trieste,
won through no effort on his part.
Thus Austila gained what was des
tined to become not only a seaport of
Important e. but also a channel for ex
ert inj,; frequent influence upon the af
fairs of Italian towns and their rulers.
The city K situated on the Gulf of
Tri'e^ie.. IMJ7 miles southwest of Vienna |
by rail. It lies on the seaward, slope 1
of the Karst, <?r Carso, a strip of lime- j
stone hills extending Inland from GO to
90 miles, furrowed with ravines and
pierced by caverns. Into which many
small streams disappear.
Not far from Trieste, at Rrisclkt. Is
the Grotto Giganta, a stalactite cave. ?
where tourists throng to see the
"Great Dome." spreading over a sub
terranean cavity nearly as long as the
United States capitol and a hundred
feet higher than the capitol dome.
Despite Its Inclusion In Austrian ter
ritory, Trieste's population and archi
tecture are Italian. It was the Ter
geste of Hotnnn history, and today the
walls and pillars of a Itouiap temple
may be seen encased in the cathedral !
of San Glusto, a highly composite
structure which also has built Into it
three adjacent structures of the six
teenth century ? a Christian basilica,
-a baptistery and a Byzantine church.
Traces of Trieste's early history
werp to be found before the war in
the Museo Lnpldnrle, which contains
many Itoman antiquities from the vi
cinity.

SAN SALVADOR: DEFIER
OF EARTHQUAKES
Sun Salvador, scene of recent earth
quake shocks, is the capital of the
smallest and most populous of Central
American republics. The city Is no
stranger to the twin terrors of earth
quake and volcano.
Within ten seconds an earthquake all
but destroyed it in 1864, another laid
It low in 1873, and that of 1917, when
millions of dollars' worth of property
wa? destroyed, is still remembered.
In spite of these fateful blows from
nature, and devastating waves of man
made revolutions, Sun Salvador today

RHODESIA: THE LAND OF
MEN, WILD BEASTS AND
NATURAL BEAUTY
Africa, not so long ago regarded, for
the most part, as a "sepulcher of. the
world's most during explorers," now
engages the attention of the work! be
cause of Its vast natural resources and
its Industrial possibilities.
Material furnished tho National
Geographic society by 11. I). Parsons,
is the basis for the following descrip
tion of Rhodesia :
"Interior Rhodesia must be tra
versed by native carriers over moun
tains, through primeval forest, across
rivers, through almost impenetrable
jungle and underbrush, In peril from
elephants, lions, leopards, hyenas, ser
pents, the tsetse tly, wild men as well
as wild beasts. Each carrier has a
mail bag of 50 pounds. On an average
carriers make 25 iuiles a day, and even
on runs of 6,000 miles, from Broken
Hill to Abercorn, they ar? seldom
more than an hour behind schedule
time and generally only half that.
They make better time In the wet
season than In the dry as, In the wet,
they travel In bare feet, while In the
dry the earth Is baked, the ground Is
hot like 'The Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes,' and they are compelled to
wear sandals.
"There Is one great drawback to the
wet; no material has yet been pro
duced that can resist African rain.
It laughs at the average rubberized
fabrics. One of the few partly suc
cessful materials Is a peculiarly wov
en canvas made in England, and even
when mall bags of this material are
opened, the contents are simply pulp ?
valueless, and frequently undecipher
able. Glazed paper suffers most; why,
I do not know. I suppose it Is the
combination of heat and water.
"The plunge of Victoria Falls on the
Zambezi Is three times that of our
Niagara ; the roar Is heard for 19 miles,
and the column of vapor Is miles high.
In the dialect of Mashonaland and
Matabeleland, Its name means 'the
water that smokes.'
"From Kasempa to Livingstone
(Victoria Falls) is 580 miles, from
Livingstone to Bulawayo 290, and from
Kasempa to Cape Town 2,290 miles?
The fauna of Rhodesia Is wonderful ;
think of 17 kinds of antelopes!
"Although the tsetse fly Is an abom
inable pest, it takes second place as
a destroyer of property value to our
American pest, the boll weevil. A
singular peculiarity of the first named
consists In Its habit of biting human
beings, horses and oxen on the feet.
When animals are shipped from Cape
Town to North Rhodesia, the shipping
is done at night, because, unlike the
mosquito, the tsetse fly works only in
the daytime. It prefers to work on
the legs, and in case <>f horses these
are done up In pa ratlin and cloths
It should be understood that this f?>e
to man and boast is confined to certain
districts."
HOW ARMAGEDDON

Persia. for the higher price of sd\er
doubled her capital, tint d ? ? her r;i \\
materials sought after hy the world.
nn<l removed her from comparative
Isolation to a place among commer
cial nations of high importance. Writ
ing to the National (leographlc society
concerning this rejuvenated undent
land. i:i la C\ Sykea says:
"Persia is one of t he oldest empires
In existence. It has been a kingdom
for 2." centuries ? ever since Cyrus the
(Jreat, about .r>.~?0 R. C.. conquered
Media and united the countr> t;? his
und^r the name of Persia. It has had
many glorious episodes in its long his
tory ; has produced the great teacher
Zoroaster ; such world-famous poets as
Kirdavsi. Omar Khay>am. Snadi and

Iihs the same word* as ourselves for

(polar, nunlar; hradai>, and dukhtar),
and the Construct lod of his language is

"Many Persians have no home life
In the usual sense of the word. A
Persian house Is divided into the hi
roonl. or men's apartments, and the
uuderoom, or part consecrated lo the
women. A strong door, set in a high
blank wall, given entrance to a nar
row passage that leads into a square
courtyard on which opeu several
rooms. Here the men live, and here
they usually entertain their friends,
while their women dwell in rooms sej
round an Inner courtyard, the only
entrance to which is through t he
hlrooni.
"As a Persian is Instructed from
earliest youth that a woman's advice
is of no account ? in fact the priests
it'll hi m that he had better do the
exact opposite of what a woman coun
sels ? It can be understood that as a
rule he has no exalted opinion of his
wife or wives, and seldom turns to
them for companionship."
CZECHOSLOVAKIA: BORN
ABOARD FREIGHT
TRAINS
Amid , the disorders of Central Eu
rope one uew nation affords a 'con
spicuous exception to the chap.**, strife
and revolutions prevalent on all sides
of her. That nation is Czechoslo
vakia
The inception of this new national
ity from a racial unit of ancient and j
distinguished lineage is a modern ro
mance comparable to the crusade* of
the middle ages.
1 Early in 1918 the intrepid Czech |
warriors started out from the Kiev
district of western Russia In railway
cars. Home of which were decorated
with the slogan, "From War to War
-Around the World."
At that time It looked ns though
the summer of 1918 would find them
in Champagne or the Argonne, joined
with the thousands of their compa
triots who 'were already fighting in
the allied armies to down the Hun.
But a strange combination of circum
stances delayed them in Siberia
through the short summer of long days
and the long winter of little sunshine.
A communication follows from
Maynard Owen Williams, first Amer
ican correspondent with the spectacu
lar anabasis of the Czecbo-Slovaks
across Siberia:
"Xenophon had a fine trip, If one
Is to Judge from the accounts of his
favorite press agent, and Napoleon
and Sherman have made famous ex
cursions, but when It comes to the
world encircling vision of the tourist
bureau writer, and the doggedness of
death, the wonderful Czechs take the
palm.
"The war found them about as en
thusiastic In their friendship for Wil
liam Hohenzollern and his Potsdam
confederates as they were for the
Hapsburg house that betrayed them
centuries ugo, after they magnanimous
ly Joined the Austrians In the repulse
of the hordes from Asia that then

"Their going over to the enemy was
