Scene of Turkish War.
Washington, D. C Two big Amer
lean armored cruisers, the Tennessee
and the Montana, have received rush
orders to proceed to Turkish waters to
look after the interests of American
citisens.
The cruisers are now in reserve at
the Philadelphia navy yard, the Ten
nessee being the flagship of Rear Ad
miral Austin M. Knight. Tbey
should be ready to aail within 24
hours and under ordinary circum
stances should reach Constantinople
about November 25.
Full complements of marines will
be carried by the two cruisers when
they ssil for Turkish waters. Orders
were issued for assembling the re
quired number at Philadelphia. From
the Norfolk navy yard 400 marines
will be drawn.
The first disposition of the State de
partment had been to refrain from
sending any American warships to the
Bosphorus, for the double reason that
their appearance might be taken aa an
evidence of American participation in
the present Balkan war and its settle.
ment and that ao rapid has been the
progress of the war that probably the
ships could Dot reach Constantinople
in time to be of any service.
Since the president s return from
Cincinnsti, however, and after a con
ferenre with the State department
officials, the fact waa demonstrated
that American naval vessels could be
emolnved aa places of refuge for
American citiiena in Turkey,
ment in having first to applv for med
iation to secure an armistice, later re
questing mediation, pure and simple,
and then virtually being obliited to
yield to the army which repudiates
mediation. Probably only the fact
that the powers have not replied to
the request for mediation prevented a
ministerial crisis and extricated the
government, as it will not now be
called upon to take any action.
The committee of Union and Pro
gress has taken up strongly the cry, of
no surrender.
London The Daily Telegraph's cor
respondent says: I
"The decision has been reached that
the sultan and government shall re
main in the capital, even if the troops
of the allies enter. The heir apparent
and the other princes have expressed
atrong opinions that it would be
shameful and exceedingly dangerous
to abandon Constantinople and retreat
to Bresau.
"The opinion is gaining ground that
the differences of the powers msy
bring about a European war by which
Turkey might profit and might re
establish her position if she resists
long enough to muster into line new
levies from Asia, numbering 600,000
men, when the general conflagration
breaks out Several high officials at
Tchatalja demand that the new troops
from the Black Sea and also the for
mer army of Thrace be given a chance
to fight."

IN June I returned from a month In
the Hawaiian Islands. Last year
I spent six months there. My fam
ily, who went out with me last
July on a month s vacation trip,
all of ua having return tlcketa back to
New York, are atlll there and what
la more, do not want to return. From
our experience I am sure that few
people In the United States, even
those on the Pacific coast, hav. any
conception of the beautiful scenery,
the glorious climate, the gorgeous
sunrises and aunsets, the auperb rain
bows, the exquisite foliage and ver
dure and the entrancing condltlona of
life In a semi-tropical clime where
none of the rigors of winter are
known and the delights ot the tropics
can be enjoyed with none of the
tropical objections to detract from
that enjoyment writes a correspon
dent of the Philadelphia Sunday Record.
To moat of ua the Hawaiian islands
represent a few dots like pin-points
on the map In the middle of the Pa

all It la to dimly recall something we
learned In our school days about Cap

In our mind's eye we see some half
naked aavages lolling nnder palm

son who knows that Honolulu Is as
near Paradise as anything on earth;
that Its streets are paved like other
cities, some good, some bad; that Its
buildings are modern. Its parka splen

city on the mainland, that Paris gowns
can be bought In Ita shops, that more
than a thousand automobllea run on
Ita streets and that ita people are
among the most traveled, cultivated,
hospitable and charming In the world.

Ever Changing Panorama.
In the early morning Mt Olympus,
Mt Tantalus and the other mountalna
back of the city - present an ever-
changing panorama, sometimes dark
green with overhanging gray clouds,
their scarred sides lost In the mist
at other times the tops as clear aa cut
glass and the ridges outlined against
the blue as sharp as the teeth of a
saw.
These pictures are presented to the
early riser even from the deck of a
ship on the morning of Its arrival off
the ahorea of the Island of Oahu and
recollections of them recur to the
memory for months afterward, bring
ing a longing for the place that seems
to get into the blood.
Should one happen to be at Walklkl
at midday, under the raya of a trop
ical sun, and drowsy with the scent
of tropical flowers, soothed by the
singing of the birds, and lulled by
the rustling of the palms and the
murmur of the waves, yet dazzled by
Rsllcs of Greet Armsds.

Inevitable nieces ot eight have been
found in comparative abundance, and

Amon the most peculiar finds were

"High Brow" Identified.
A correspondent asks us for "a
full definition ot the term "high brow."
How can we glv. It? As well ask ns
to define a picture which can only b.
described, not defined. "High brow"
Is a picture, a metaphor, a poke to the
Imagination, an Invitation to Individ

of a aea grading from deep purple In

breakers and the gray and white ot

determine whether the dawn or the
noon presents the most attractlona,
but a moonlight night at Walklkl
Beach, with the soft trade wind rest
ling the palma overhead, the long roll
ers of the ocean breaking at one's
feet and a full moon over Diamond
Head casting a aheen on the water
and throwing the serrated aldea of
the old brown crater which dominates
the entire landscape into deep ahar
dows, while the strains of "Alcha Oe"
or "Una Like No a Like" sung softly
by some natlvea strolling under the
palma to the accompaniment of strum
ming "Ukuleles" leaves a memory
that will last forever. Verily, the
place la rightly named "The Paradise
of J;he Pacific," and the expression
"The Lure of the Islands," which I
have seen somewhere, fits the feeling
that comes over one after leaving
them. There are other beautiful places,
but nowhere else have I felt tiv acme
call to "go back."
Comfort In Honolulu.
Honolulu presents every conveni
ence and comfort for good living. Ita
hotels measure up to all requirements

and a swimming pool make It very atr

type of many along the . shores of
both oceans and about what we ot the
east would expect to find at Atlantic
City. It has some fine cottages, and
Is a fine hostelry.
But the charm of all Is summed up
In the so-called Seaside hotel at Wal
klkl, a collection of cottagea set In a
beautiful cocoanut grove right on tha
beach, which waa formerly a part of
the klng'a seashore estate. The main
building, which ia not very preten
tious, waa the royal cottage. Attach
ed to It is a beautiful "Lanal" or
porch used as a dining room, and this
Lanal with Ita overhanging trees and
its beautiful views and surroundings
is architecturally the finest thing in
Honolulu.
The schools at Honolulu and gen

most people, aa It did me. to learn
that the first college weat of the Mis
sissippi river was at Honolulu, being
established about eighty years ago by
missionaries. Thla school is known
as Oahu college or "Punahou" and
with Its attendant preparatory school
Is aa good as there Is on the main
land. My daughter, coming from one
of the best schools of the east en
tered the Junior class and took up the
same course In the same books as if
she had continued In the high school
