Hetra. Kot far from where Arabian lands

n o w form a battleground for Turk and Briton stands the Mahommedan holy city of Mecca, toward which turn count l ess thousands of Moslems every day at the time for prayer. Mecca, the na­tive place of Mahomet, Is the principal c i ty of the Turkish vilayet of the H e -Jar in Arabia, and is located a few miles back from the coast of the Red Sea, Jidda being its seaport and the landing place of nearly all Its pilgrims who come by sea. I ts population Is difficult to de­termine because of its great number of 'visitors, and at the height of the pil­grimage season It Is usually much over­crowded.

To this holy city of Islam every good Moslem, should make at least one pil­grimage during his lifetime. H e must arrange his affairs so that h i s family wil l be taken care of in his absence, and the money he uses for his Journey, It Is stipulated In his religion, must have been obtained by lawful means. The more devout of Moslems usually trans­ac t no business either along the w a y or after arrival at Mecca, although the rules which prescribe conduct on this devout errand do not forbid such a thing. There are, however, many of the pilgrims who must, combine religion •with business, otherwise they could never find means to accomplish the Journey. These, It would seem, have a lways been In the majority, for Mecca Itself has, besides i ts religious standing. a location as an Important commercial center.

Mecca 13 surrounded by a great area of uncultivated land, called the "haram" or sacred territory, where not even date palms grow, and the city Is said by his­torians to have been founded to carry on trade with Abyssinia in "Winter and Syria In Summer. I ts bazaars at pil­grimage time are filled with the.f inest products of the East, and a single one of its caravans has represented a n In­vestment of a s much as $100,000. H o w ­ever, one of the principal industries there—In recent years at least—seems t o have been that of renting lodgings a t exhorbitant rates to devout pilgrims, and otherwise exploiting them until the pious stranger has been stripped of h is goods and amazed by the wickedness and vice of his "holy city."

Arriving at the edge of the haram, t h e pilgrim changes his ordinary clothes for the "ihram," the ancient pilgrimage

dress consisting of two cloths wrapped around his body in a certain prescribed manner. Thus attired, he proceeds to the city, and after the end of h is de­votions begins the return Journey with the honorary title of ."haJJ," which is conferred upon all who have made the pilgrimage.

In the center of Mecca is located the great mosque, which is really not much more than a huge columned wall w i th seven minarets, and Is built around the most sacred relics. Inside this wall Is called the Vnarem," or sacred spot, .and there stands the K u l a , the "holy of holies" of the Moslem, a rude stone building about forty feet square, the original of which is said to have been built by Abraham and his son Ishmael. It was the religious center of Mecca long before the time of Mahomet, who threw out its idols and made of it the sacred place of Islam. Many times It has been destroyed by fire and flood, but it has always been rebuilt approxi­mately In the original design. The Ka'ba has no windows, and its door Is several feet above the surrounding level, entrance being effected by means of portable steps. Inside, Its walls are covered with silver, the gift of wealthy Mahommedans; i ts floor is a mosaic of varicolored marbles, a n d . I t s celling Is hung with silks of wondrous hue and texture. Outside, much of the time its walls are covered with rich brocade, on the borders of whloh Is embroidered In gold thread quotations from the Koran.

In the wall of the Ka'ba, near its South-East corner and at a convenient height. Is the famous black stone said to have been given to Abraham by the angel Gabriel. In performing the "tawaf," which i s the custom of seven times circuiting the Ka'ba, this great stone is kissed by the pilgrim each time It Is passed.

Within the walls of the mosque is found what i s supposed to be the tomb of Abraham, and stone slabs mark what Moslems believe to be the graves of Hagar and Ishmael. All these are holy spots and must be visited in making the "tawaf."

Among the other holy relics inside the city Is the famous Zamzam well, said to have been used by Hagar In securing water for her son IshmaeL The waters of this well are supposed to have wonderful curative values, and a brisk traffic is driven with the'pilgrims In the sale of Jars and bottles for taking away the water. The well i s believed to have been lost after the days of Hagar, and found later b y the grand­father of the prophet Mahomet

Tho exotic Grecian city was a battle­ground from the s tar t The East and the West met and fought out their dif­ferences to a finish there.

After- uniting, they form the Euphra­tes proper, which boldly breaks its way through the mountains by a zigzag course that carries It now to the right and now to the left. N o w it flows for thirty miles at right angles to i ts gen­eral course, then sixty miles parallel to it, and then 180 miles at right angles again, a s though it were headed for the Mediterranean Sea. Then it winds to the South for eighty miles.

Here it takes up its general trend to the South-East, and with Innumerable sharp windings and bends, but with only a few broad curves, it heads its way to the sea. The air-line distance of the remotest spring of the Euphrates from the sea is only eight hundred miles, and yet its waters must travel eighteen hun­dred before they reach the sea. In the last twelve hundred miles of i ts course the Euphrates is slow and sluggish, wandering all over the land whan it has opportunity, making that which it touches a marsh and that which it can­not reach a desert I t s fall during the last twelve hundied miles i s only ten inches to the mile, and It broadens out so much that, while It contains enough J

Armenian plateau. The Northernmost J phers fomented many bloody riots, in which the fickle, v iolent loi.t-hungry Alexandrian mob raged in unforgetable religious tumults. In one such tumult the surpassingly beautiful pagan priest­ess Hyp&tia was torn to pieces to glut a brutish populace.

The famous Alexandrian library was the bridge between the culture of classic Greece and the cultural needs of early ChrisUan and Mohammedan Europe. Much of its treasures filtered through to the Moors and to the Christians through the scholarship of Rome. The library was destroyed in the war-flood which followed the rise of the religion from the desert; and the burning of the great book-treasury has been keen­ly deplored by scholars of each genera­tion succeeding.

In the latter years of t h e eighteenth century the city was held b y the French. It had sunk to the status of a small village under centuries of Mo­hammedan misrule, having a popula­tion of less than 4,000, but under Me-hemet All, the wise and cunning Al­banian, it regained much of its pros-:. perity. English control of the city's a s well a s Egypt's .welfare dates from 1882, since which date a new city has been developed, aEd one that bears a greater degree of relationship to the West than to the East.

Cillcian Plain. One of the historic places of the re­

mote past that m a y ye t be destined to range itself alongside of Bagdad and Mesopotamia in present-day interest Is the Cillcian Plain, a small territory ranged around the extreme North-Eastern .corner of the Mediterranean. Sea. It w a s to a harbor on i ts coast, Alexandretta, that German capital turned for an outlet for the Bagdad Railroad when checkmated In its desire to reach the Persian Gulf; and It was here:that the Germans were beginning to build a modern commercial port In the Near Fas t beforetheFJuropean war broke out. -

A glance at the map of the Mediter­ranean shores will reveal the fact that the Gulf of Alezandretta Is a deep in­dentation in the coast of that sea. Flank­ing it on either side are high mountain ranges,r running back from the -water's edge Into the deep interior of Asia Minor. Many miles to the North of the narrow gulf these ranges come to­gether, and the triangle thus formed Is a water-shed drained by three his­toric rivers, which once bore the classic names of Sarus, Cydnus and Pyramus. Through the ages t h a t , they-' have coursed down the sides of the Taurus, Anti-Taurus and Armamus Mountains they have brought down the weathered materials from their great slopes, and have built up at the head of the gulf a magnificent alluvial plain of about eight hundred square miles, , \

_This little plain once w a s the cross­roads of civilization, through which-ran the. great highway between the Fas t and the West on ,which stood Tarsus, Adana and Mopsuestia. This great highway, descending from theAnatoiian plateau to Tarsus, was built throygh a narrow defile called '- Ghulek. Baghaz. Further to the Fas t It passed through a masonry gate before entering the plain of Issus. From this latter plain one road extended South and another North, each of them through giant ma­sonry gates. ' . '' . V.; u .

I t Is thought to have been due to the fact that Alexander knew nothing of the1 pass to the North that Darius was able to cross the mountains prior to the battle of Issus. From those times onward the Cillcian Gates figured In history, and the Cillcian Plain became a cockpit In which armies strove for mastery.

Catsklll. N. Yt

i a a n y circumstances has become one of the most Important outposts of the vast British Empire. Port Said is the Brit­ish storehouse in the Levantine world; it is a British arsenal and troop station of rank; it Is the base for defense of the all-Important route to India,' and for offense against the Mediterranean and Red Sea flanks of the Turks.

A pioneer city in the ancient F a s t ; one entirely the product of modern times, without traditions, customs, or proprieties; a heterogeneous, unde-finable c i ty o f - s w e a t y toll, gigantic business, of ail races and of all the out­casts, Port Said has been a highly inter­esting phenomenon since i ts birth. I t early earned a world-wide reputation for wickedness, beside which the modest fame of the "Western mining camp seems to merge into the mild and conven­tional. The most undesirable elements In the Eastern and Levantine nations met, mingled and made life one excite­ment after another at Port Said. And the damp of the climate, the incessant" clatter of shipping, the o^ary.scenery; the never-ending coaling. operations, and the often fierce heat.have combined to give the town a renown of a most unenviable sort.

.The-English, however, have steadily dampened the ardorous excesses of the busy, modern Babel; and, with the .ex­tensive harbor improvements of 1903-1909, wi th the addition of a large cot­ton export to the town's activities, and w i t h the building of a standard-gauge railroad to Cairo, people of a better class have sought new Interests In. Port Said. '." Thus, with the increasing of the port's commercial possibilities and the coming of the merchants, the place has been considerably raised in the social scale and lowered in the scale of lurid interest.

The port city w a s founded in 1859, and i ts site w a s determined by the needs of the great canal. It lies on a low, narrow, desolate.strip of sand.that separates t h e Mediterranean from Lake Menzaleh. I t Is on the Western side of the canal. The harbors of the port, improved by splendid modern works, are safe and commodious. Port Said Is rated as the largest coaling station in the World, 'and it is one of the world's important depots for all manner of maritime supplies. The population of

Egypt. From a forbidding, sun-glazed, pov­

erty-sordid waste-land, farmed where naturally fertile barely for a frugal daily fare, Into a land of numerous farms and plantations, of ever-extending ir­rigation nets and increasing profusions or green and gold and. russet vegetation, is the story of Egypt's progress under European leadership during the past generation. Where the fame of Egypt of old w a s for thuggery and revolution, the modern.land was earning renown as a wonderful Winter playground for tourists and as England's kitchen gar­den. !

The long fruitful farm that follows the Nile banks through hundreds of miles of desert and spreads out over the wide delta to-day, while the people of the most productive countries in the world are In trenches and in training camps, has come Into first-rank importance as a source of foodstuffs. For the past thirty years the progress of Nile-control and of great irrigation projects has been preparing the country for strong competition in all of the larger produce markets of Europe. The number of farm holdings has grown to about 1.000,000 in a land with a population of 11,000,000. These holdings Include 5,500,000 acres of land.

And there Is labor a-plenty In tho country for the development of every square rod of area reclaimed, for Egypt I Is one of the most densely settled lands In the world. I t s . habitable area Is given as 12,026 square miles, and its density of "population at 989 persons per square mile. Belgium, before the war the most thickly settled country in Europe, had a density of 589 pet- square mile. The enormous growth lnagr ieu l -tural resources has stimulated in Egypt an increase of- population equaled by few other lands in old world areas be­sides Germany. Cities, villages, roads, railways and canals have sprung up out of the profits of the Nile bonanza farm. r .

At the time the war broke out, irri­gation projects were in prospect that would have reclaimed nearly 2,000,000 acres of land. The cost of all of these works had been estimated at something more than 1100,000,000. Cotton was first of the plantation crops, with* an apparently glowing future before i t Rice was the principal grain export, being sold abroad to a value of about $1,250,000. Fresh eggs on the London breakfast tables were largely Egyptians, and the value of this product taken each year by Great Britain averaged around $600,000. There were" also Important nuantlHfla-i>f-fanriyi'F2gypHan Vegetables sold in London markets, and a thriving cane-sugar industry was in the course of upbuilding. ..V ^ ^ . ^ . :

_ .Moreover, agricultural Egypt had Just .began to gather headway during Vhe"past ten" years. "It w a s just be­ginning to realize a fraction of the pro­duction that a proper development of its lands could be expected to bring about. I t s out-of-seaaon vegetables, grown at a time when the fields of Europe's great vegetable gardens, still l ie frost-bound, had enjoyed scarce half a decade of demand in Northern mar­kets, though they, compared in quality with the fancy vegetables, tho first aristocracy of vegetable foods, grown on the little garden plots In Northern France and in Belgium, the coaxed and coddled cultivations of zealous small gardeners. Egypt gave promise of be­coming England's fairest farm.

Alexandria. Alexander the Great, l ike .an erratic

meteor, flashed across the drowse of civilization-weary Egypt ; and, per­haps a s a memorial of his deification in the land of the Pharaohs, he left behind him the beginnings of a vigorous Greek city, Alexandria, destined to" be the gateway for a flow of Western rejuve­nation to; the worn valley, and to-day, with Constantinople and a few other places, one of the greatest prizes for the contesting army millions in the East. Alexander built Jbls city in 332 B. C upon the ruins of the Egyptian town Rhacotos. After more than two thousand years, Alexandria has become the life of Egypt, Its largest port, one of the busiest ports on the Mediter­ranean, and an important world-city. >

Tho modern city is divided. Into two parts, ono of which, inhabited by Mo­hammedans, is a listless Oriental tangle of narrow, crooked streets and uninvit­ing buildings, while tho other, the European quarter, is solidly built and possesses -many of tho essential con­veniences of the American or European metropolis. It occupies a ridge of land between tho Mediterranean and Lake Mareotts. The Rosetta mouth of the Nile lies more than 30 mires to the East; Cairo, the interior metropolis, l ies 129 miles by rail to tho South-East, and the Suez Canal is mote than 140 miles to tho East. . The city is linked by a network of railway and telegraph lines to tho other towns of Egypt, and Is in telephonic connection with Cairo.

Alexandria is the counting house and tho commission office of tho Nile vnlloy. Tho British Chamber of Corr.-merce has ltd headquarters there, and "triers, t«V», a f > loz-nt^A thr> >innd rvfflrm

of many of the iWgest commercial or­ganisations doing business in tho Near East. The valuo of tho city's trade, in normal thnes. in about }240,OO0,000 a ywurv- Tho Wftfitoth harbor, designed for a modern," flnst-rf.nk commerce, is visited annually by S.000 vessels.
