VVhelan first to Welcome Brit ish Troops When They Entered Was Representative Thero of he Bible Society. Although It (s n year slucc Ailenby's .victorious army entered Jerusalem, and the greatest Christian shrine In the world was wrested forever from the clutches of the Infidel Turk, one of fhe most strlklpc eptsodcs'of all those that marked tjiat entry lias only re cently become known. To Americans this oplsode Is of especial Interest, since It came as the climax of perhaps the most picturesque of all the many services that have een rendered by the allied nntlons. .find to humanity generally, by Individ ,unl Americans, from Gerard nnd Urand Whltlock down, since the beginning of jhe war. For nearly three years, or from early In 1015 until the deliverance of Jerusalem In December, 1017, one of the oldest anil most famous of UrltMi prganlza'iiuis remained In unblissful gnornuee as to what had become of Us "depot" In the Holy City. ThN -organization Is the BrltMi and Foreign Bible society, which like its great sls Jer organization In the I'ulted States, "exists for the purpose of distributing tlie Good Boot: among Christians In every part of the world. In February, 1915, or soon nfter Turkey threw In her lot with the cen tral powers, the Bible society's depot n Jerusalem, which contnlned many thousands of volumes, had to be aban doned hastily. The workers there were brought to Egypt on an American warship. From that day until quite re cently nothing whatever was known re garding the fato of the depot or Its contents. It was assumed that both jiad probably been destroyed by the -Turks. Hut then came a letter from .the society's secretary at Port Said in closing one from the commander of (he London Scottish, the first British regiment to enter the Holy City. In this officer's letter the striking story was told of how a venerable American resident of Jerusalem, by name 51. M. Wholnn, came lorward spontaneously after the abandonment of the Blblo society's depot, took up his residence therein and courageously "carriel on" AS Its custodian. "It may interest you to know," this officer wrote, "that as I entered Jeru salem with the first troops, I was met by a quaint old American, named Whc lun, seventy years of age, who told me lie represented the Bible society, and presented mo with a beautiful copy of the Scriptures." Beyond the fact that M. M. Whelan Is a naturalized Irish citizen of the United Stntes, and that he had been living In Jerusalem for several years before the war, little Is known by the Hlble society at present regarding tlio picturesque character to whom It owes to great a debt of gratitude. It la not oven known from what part of the United States he comes. The society has, however, received n photograph .of Its venerable American benefactor, which shows him to be a truly patri archal type. Germany Has Lost Mexican Trade.

New Orleans French. Negro troops from Louisiana have a linguistic advantage over other American soldiers. Many of them, through living In sections where French still Is spoken, are more or less familiar with the language of this land when thoy get here. Hut they hnve their dll'lcultles. nevertheless.
