THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, POItTULND, DECEMBER 16, 101T. 11 An American Physician In Turkey, by Clarence JJ. Van hp r, M. r.. and (irace H. Knapp, colla hbratlns. Illustrated. SI. 73. Houghton, Mifflin Co., Boston. "A narrative of adventures in peace and war." Such is the modest explanation by our authors In explaining the purpose of their book, which is as exciting and thrilling as a stage play. It is another eye-opener, showing the ruthlessness 'land love of cruelty and bloodshed of the 'lurkish people in misgoverning Armenia and the Armc-nians. iJr. Usshvr speaks of his home In Canada. His father was bishop of the Reformed Kpiscopal Church in the Do minion of Canada, and Island of Xew foundland. This information isfur nished on pace 338. but it is not clear where Dr. I'ssher was born either in Ireland o. Canada. He is descended from a long line of churchmen. It Is related on the first pace that when Lr. I'ssher called in Boston, Mass.. at the headquarters of the American board of commissioners for foreign missions, he was asked by Ir. James L. Barton. "Would you be afraid to go to liarput, Turkey? Would you", be willing? Could you get ready by the first of September?" Ir. I'ssher accepted the challenge, as a missionary-physician, and he and Mrs. Ussher sailed from Boston on the steamship Armenian, May 12. lS8, ar riving In Constantinople, Turkey, in June. Dr. Ussher first began work in Harput. Turkey, and found 53 patients anxiously awaiting him. He thinks that "the missionary-physician is the best pioneer, of Christianity in the Ori ental countries, which have such ter rible need of his services." The Ussh 'Tg remained one year in Harput and report that the sanitary conditions lihere were friirhtfiil. f It is stated that infant mortality in (Turkey is so severe that 60 per cent of all the babies die before completing their second year, due mainly to the Initiahle ignorance of their mothers. F A famine-stricken Arab horse, named 1 . I (i V. . . .1 in t t T'ucHof Vfdjib wm fed and otherwise cared or and became quite valuable in time. On page20 we are told that Dr. Ussh- rr was transferred to the town ofVan, f here he was destined to experience nuch misfortune. At the same time, lis arrival there was a blessing, as he lealed the sick, helped the dying and ed the hungry. Mrs. Ussher became -uperintendent of a girls school. Cholera, typhus and smallpox were often fought. The Turkish officials k re represented as monsters ; of Ineffi- iency and pastmasters at the game. of bribery. In the Turkish garrison at '.'an, dirty conditions caused typhus fmong the troops, but the Turkish phy sicians, in spite or all tnat ir. ussner l ould say. decreed that the disease was Lomething other than typhus.' Many h'urkish officers were nuised and they ecovered health, at the Ussher hos pital. Hut the common Turkish sol iiers were" not allowed to visit the .ospital. and out of a garrison of 4500, :sni died. The Armenians are represented as eing largely Christian, and the most rogressive race in the Turkish pos- essions. It is shown that the Turkish .-overnrrient led by the Young Turks, roaded rhese Armenians into rebellion, rhe Turks wanted to massacre the Ar menians as a nation and to people Ar nenia with Turks. Jevdet Bey's Turkish soldiers began o massacre the Armenians and it is tated that 54.000 people were killed, vhile thousands fled to the mountains.! rvrmeninn w (t tT"l , n n n I irirls became the jtrey-of Turkish soldiers. Th rcni.j i tii niv Armenians orcanixPd small defense army in Van and ! ought the Turks. The Armenian am- lunition was about exhausted when 'ne province was relieved by the sud- en approach of Oeneral isicolaiett s Russian army and the Turks fled. Both Dr. and Mrs. Ussher were tricken with typhus and Mrs. Ussher led, while her husband recovered. He vas careii lor ana taKen py me kih- ians into the Caucasus. Dr. Ussher eached Petrograd, apd subsequently he United States. He pleads, when he war is over, for assistance to save he Armenians for Christianity. laiama. volume number z. illustrated.

Hanson and C. P. Weld, with four young women, went to La Crosse to hear a patrioticconcert. Their car resembled the bandits' car, and the first two num bers of the license were the same After the concert the men were taken to the police station and questioned about tbe diamonds. They were released after an hour's grilling-, when Chief of Police Fred Webber entered the station and recog nized them. On their return all that was required to get a rood cigar or other treat in Houston was tbe mere mention of diamonds.
