The Third Term.
When tho Roosevelt candidacy was
first proposed, Tho Bee suggested
that It was a uorlous question
whether tho people of this country
wero ready to rescind tho unwritten
aw that had limited tho presidency
to two terms. Recognition of popu
lar nentiment against a third term
led to an effort to distinguish bo-
tween a "consecutivo" third term
and a third term coming after an In
terval of rotlromonl to prlvato life.
But this differentiation struck most
people as altogether too flno spun,
and failed to extinguish tho third
term Issue. When tho history of tho
recent campaign comes to bo written
dispassionately tho Ingrained opposi
tion of tho American people to a
third term will be credited with hav
ing exerted a potent Influenco at the
ballot box. Not only that, but each
rejection of tho third term Idea must
strengthen the law and cttatom which
proscribes It, and mako It stUb-harder
In tho future to overturn tho prin
ciple.
Salonlkl, the second city In population
of Huropoan Turkey, reported captured
by the Orednn army. Is the chief sea
port In western Turkey, the commercial
metropolis of the province of Macedonia
and tho objective point of the Teutonlo
advance toward the east. It Is one of the
oldest cities of Turkey and has a long
history of conquest nnd rccomiuost. It
wts held by nnclent. Orewe and Rome,
and fought over by Uyxantlnes, Turks
and Slavs for many centuries. Its various
conquerors havo left their Impress not
only In wonderful archaeological remains,
hut also In the variety of names by
which the city Is known. There are six
of these and the variety of pronunciation
by the different people who trade at
the port brings tho number up to twen
ty-two. It has a population estimated
at 1W.000.
The city lies at the head of the Gulf
of Halonlkl, on a fine boy, the. approaches
to which were supposed to bo strongly
fortified. The southern limit of the town,
relates the New York Sun, Is formed by
the Calamcrlan heights nnd on the north
and western sides are broad alluvial
plains, which have been created by tho
discharge of tho water of the Vardar
and the Illstrltza, the two principal rivers
of western Macedonia.
Tho city Is divided by ono great street,
the Ruo Vardar (the Via Egnatl.i of the
Romaps), which ruha parallel with tho
sea. On one side, ascending the hill to
tho ancient walls to the north. Is the
Turkish quarter, where the Turks try
to llvo the life of the old nndent Turkish
irgtme, untouched by the modernity that
presses close around them. This quar
ter Is a haphazard labyrinth of nnrrow
alleys, sombre and dark, with closed
doors and latticed windows, with gar
dens and high walls overshadowed by
trees flirough which shine tho white
minarets of small mosques. Its stillness
Is scarcely broken except by tho sum
mons to the faithful at the hours of
prayer.
From the Turkish quarter, which seoms
stranded on the hillside, tho modern Ku
ropeunlzed quarter of hotels, shops, ware
houses, banks and consular offices, turbu
lent and noisy, descends gently downward
to the white quays on the harbor. Oreek
seamen from the Isles, and Moslem boat
men, In twiggy breeches and white
turbans, mingle with sailors from all the
ports of tho world In tho loading and un
loading of the boats tliat crowd Into the
bay. Greeks, Uulgars, Turks, Syriann,
Jews, Armenians, Hermans and Aus
trlans throng the bazars that arc laden
with alt the wares of the east.
Down by the tea, where the dty meets
the country, stands a great, grim circular
fortresslike building, a reminder of old
Turkey. It Is the "White Tower of Sa-
lonlca." In the dungeons of which thou
sands of people In the past have been
tortured to death. Its history ha given
the themes for epics that havo been sung
and recited from the Aegean sea to the
Danube.
On the hill overlooking the bay In tho
most desirable residence section of the
city Is another prison. It Is tho Villa
Atatlnl, within the walls of which has
tKion confined for threo years Balonlcas
most distinguished prisoner, tho deposed
sullnn, Abdul Hamld. The villa Is named
after Its original owners, a wealthy Jew
ish family that made" a fortune from flour
and tllo mills. Tho fine old house, the
roof nnd upper story of which may casUy
bo seen from the road, Is In the mlddlo of
a pine scented park enclosed by high
walls. Abdul Hamld was taken there,
with a small part of his harem, on April
28, 1M. Since that date no authentic
news of him has come out from behind
these waits except occasional reports of
his Illness and announcements or ins sig
nRiiiro tn checks for money deposited by
him in foreign banks. Ho is now an old
man. well nasi 0, and nil nows of Tur
key's recent misfortunes In the loss of
Tripoli and tho present war reverses naa
been kept from him. Fearing the advance
of the Greeks on the city tho noted pris
oner was removed to tho Asiatic side of
tho Aegean sea.

which the allies have advanced south
ward through Uskub and Voles. An
other line In tho samo direction runs to
JiiWoyltza. A third road goes westward
to Monastlr. The original plan for this
a for a railroad through to the Adriatic.
The fourth road, and the one which Is
nerhaps the most Important to Turkey.
Is the lino eastward through Seres to

American Influenco in Turkey. ,
The Influenco of American educd
tlqn in making a republic out of
China, tho oldest of monarchies, has
been everywhere ncclalmed. Sun Yat
h. tho revolutionary loader: who
becamo tho ward of American ral.
slonnrlcs In childhood and othor 'tmz.

education In tho United Btntcs or
through oltr missionaries abroad.
Now conies manifestation of the same
Influence in the Balkans, Many
loaders of tho antl-TurklBh armies
wcro educated in Robert college at
Constantinople, for years regarded as
the whlto light of tho Ilosphorus,
"The Influenco of Robert college Ib,
still shown," a promlnont wnr cor
respondent quotes Prcmlor auess
choff at Sophia as Baying; "mnny
government official's wore educated
there"
Thoughtful Americans must bo
struck with the obvious Import of
such oxampleu. If tho diffusion of
American Ideate through American
schools dispels darkness in China
and thwarts tyranny In Turkoy, we
may feel satisfaction in achieving
ono of tho largo missions of Amer
ican life, Then if thoso Idoals are
being as successfully Implicated and
fostered in tho minds of our students
at homo tho achievement assumes
tho proper symmetry of form.
"To see tho finest sight In the world,''
said a French writer, "one must Ipo't
at Constantinople from the ship's deck,
but never to land, under penalty of senlng
the worst sights In the world." This Is
a mild exaggeration, for there are things
of great beauty In the Ottoman capital.
But other writers assert on a fact that
the traveler on landing Is greatly disap
pointed, and the energetic activity of
custom housn offloinls In searching for
dutiable goods puts the traveler In a vary
dlsagrecabln mood. To appreclnto the
son view of Constantinople a clear Idcu

The famous church of St. Sophia stands

was conveyed to St. Sophia. The temple
hence presents a diversified aspect In Its
Interior that docs not fall to please. '
According to Greek historians, more
than 10,000 men were engaged day and
night In tho work of construction dur
ing the six years of Its building. Tho
most famous Byzantlno emperors,
Justinian, directed the work clad as an
ordinary laborer. Sliver of the value of
200,000 was used In making various orna
ments. The holy vasos were of purest
gold, In which gems of Inestimable value
were set. Various historians assert that
over $5,000,000 was spent by Justinian
nlone.
The most notoworthy feature of the
edifice Is Its dome. It represents the
materialization of ono of the boldest
conceptions In the history of archltcoturo,
for It was hero that a circular structure
was first laid over a rectangular base.
The diameter of this remarkable dome
Is 107 feet and Its height Is forty feet.
Theso'.'proportlons imprers ono with the
Idea of" beholding a huge Inverted bowl
above on'o's head. Everything appears
to hung In mldnlr, so much so thnt the
bo'duess of tho execution cannot pass un
noticed. A row of small windows, somi
forty In number, are pierced at the base.
This produces effects of surpassing
beauty, for the light Is thereby not only
softly dispersed, but Is also uniformly
distributed.
During the days when Constantinople
was a Christian city the base of the dome
was covered with mystlo representations
of the virgin and the saints, which were
executed mostly In beautiful mosaics. To.
day as one stands below the dome the
yo, cast upward, meets huge discs on
which glided Arabic Inscriptions have
been painted against a green background,
Tho only vestlgo of Christianity stilt In
cvldcnco Is represented by tho wings of
huge mosaic archangels, which have been
carelessly overlooked by the Turks. High
up In tho dome Is a mosaic Iguro of
Christ, though It Is concealod by Moslem
emblems and coated and corroded with
paint centuries old, There is a legend
that when a Christian host again takes
tho city the face of the Redeemer will
spontaneously rmergo Into tho light of
day in all Its pristlno splendor.
This legend has long caused uneasi
ness to pious Moslems, who have spent
large sums and made unavailing at
tempts to conceal effectually tho facial
outlines of the Savior of the G loons.
Threats havo been made that the entrance
of the Bulgarian army Into Constantinople
will be a signal for the destruction of St.
Sophia.
The city's, population Is about 1.U0.C00.

avoid the rush.

Walter Roscoe Stubbs had the Job canned,

host of Kansas reactionaries, armed with
can openers, smote the convoy and ran

You Want the Best Telephone Service
Face your transmitter
and speak in a natural tone
of voice, about one inch
from the transmitter
mouthpiece.
Then the other party will
hear you and nobody is
blamed.
Don't lot your telephone
bell ring two or three times
before you answer. The
callingparty is waiting and
getting impatient. He is
more than likely to say,
"Poor service," or that the
operators are not ringing
you.
