Adrianople, down at the heels though it is, has been the ‘apple-of-the.eye’ of many a Turkish sultan, because it was the first eity of any size which the Turks ever captured in Europe,” says a bulletin off the National Geo- graphic Society issued from its Wash- ington headquarters. “Karagach is a strategic point aleng the Constantinople-Sephia-Bel- grado railway, which is Bulgaria's outlet to the Aegean. Recent reports say that the Greeks have moved out bag and baggage, leaving Karagach 3|dead and the corpse dismantied, their gutted houses looking down in their ruin and desolation upon the naked streets. They have gone out on the plain beyond te build near Ourli a city of their own, and have called it Orestias after one of their heroes at Troy, the name which they had formerly given to Karagach. Suburb of the East. “Karagach, one of the five suburbs 1|of Adrianople, which lies to the west of the city near the confluence of the iArdu and the Maritza, is western in its general design, with detached resi- of the modern European type. Adrianople, however, is distinctly oriental in character and has for many years been a strongly fortified outpost of the 7Turks on the | frontier of the Balkans. “Many of the history's pageants | have been staged in the ancient eity. | Hadrian gave it his name; the Roman |emperor of the east, Valens, met his {death at the hands of the Goths be- ‘rnrc- it; Huns, Greeks, Bulgars and Crusaders have swept over and laround it.

Many | of them have taken out their first papers for American citizenship, and it is reported that all are employed. The majority of these people have gone into factories, according to the editor of Russian Life, a local weekly. These include séveral who were gen- | erals in the army under the czar and a number of ex-colonels and lesser of- | ficers.

Miss Lee whose nume off the screen is Mrs. James Kirkwood, explained her signature on the notes found in Chicago as follows: “Last summer I passed througn Chicago. At that time I was not of age. My father was then in financlar difficulties and asked me to sign two notes in blank which were not to be used except, as he sald, for possible securities. “A few months ago, my father was here and was on the verge of a nerv- ous breakdown as a result of his financial situation.

The German companies in this group, which secks an airway control of Europe, are the Aero-Lloyd, Rume pler, Junkers and Bayerisher Lufte Lloyd. The three others are the Swiss Ad-Astra, the Austrian Oester- reichische Luftverkehe and the Hun- garian Acro-Express. This combine, in which the Junkers group predomis nates, aims at the control of some- thing llke 12,000 miles of European airways, stretehing from Archangel in the north to Athens and Smyrna in the south, and from Lisbon fn the southwest to Nishni-Novgorod, Tiflis and Teheran in the east.
