The Count is @ slim, handsome young movie, who has come to America to in- yest some of his patrimony.

By Nixola Greeley-Smith. The Servant of the Glory of God is with us—Abdul Baha Abbas is the Persian for his mame, and he Is the head of one of the newest and most thriving religions in the world, numbering 20,000,000 souls among his followers, of whom several hundred souls are in New York and waited at the pier to meet him yes. terday. Abdul Baha {s the son of Baha’o'llan, whose coming was foretold by The Bab, @ religious revolutionist who arose in Persia seventy yoars but who was executed before his prophecies got a chance to make good. To a hereditary heathen the distin- Bulshing characteristic of this new re- ligion of the Orient 1s that ft changes its name and its prophet at the eame time. | For members of the sect were known | originally as Babists, after Tho Bad, but they are now called Bahals, after the Bahas, father and son. BOTH BAHAS IN PRISON FOR A LONG TIME. Bahas were imprisoned for many yours by the Turkish Government at Akica. In fact the father died there, but the triumph of the Young Turk move- ment let the son of the prophet out of Jail, and the first use he made of his un- accustomed berty was to visit Europe and the second to come to the United States, Of course nobody could be named Baha without having a beard, and the eternal fitness of things has seen to it:that this seventy-year- old head of new religion had the regulation prophet’s whiskers— ‘which may be seen any Gay this ‘week at the Ansonia Motel, o dan- gerous place for newly emanci- pated prophts, x should think. However, Abdul Baha {3 not unprotect-| ed. He has brought @ suite of five very Oriental gentlemen, including a private physician, with him to New York, and this ought to provide chaperonage enough for anybody—even W. B. D. Stokes, VISITORS IMPRESSIVELY DE- LAYED AT THE ANSONIA, A prophet is not without honor at the| Ansonia, There was a lot of red tape and an impressive delay before visitors were admitted to the prophetic presence. And then Abdul Baha delivered a long monologue which one was permitted to take down but not to interrupt. I know, for I got terribly, terribly “squelched” for interrupting. Abdul Baha is really a delightful prophet. He says he isn’t @ prophet, by the way, but “only a servant of the ser- vants of God,” but he seemed ao worn and old and feeble yesterday that I couldn't help wishing the prophet bust- ness were profitable these days and that there were a chance of his retiring to @ serene old age pretty soon, For those were very, very old and tired eyes that gazed out of the window of the Ansonia yesterday while the prophet told in strange, monotonous) Persian of the puri of his visit to tho United States, The Persian was, of course, duly translated by the proph- 's physician, a suave, Oriental gentie- man with melancholy, dark eyes and a black beard, which looked silky enough to be woven into a prayer rug for the prophet himself. ‘The five gentlemen of the suite ect like many prayer rugs for the prophet, asyhow. For instance, some one asked the prophet’s physician how many attendants he had brought with him and received this reply: “Z cannot tell you. Anything he wishes you to know he will tell. I am only his mouthpiece, Me will be here shortly.” And just then the prophet came in, Dowed a gracious welcome to every- body present and, seating himself in a huge armchair at the window, began to speak. ‘The prophet wore a white turban from which long gray locks escaped down his back to the middle of his shoulders, A modern looking gray overcoat, with @ plaid ining, half concealed @ gown of snuff-colored cloth that was knotted with a cord about the middle ke @ bath robe, This rope revealed that the rophet ought to wear a straight front The prophet's skin, like his {s snuff colored, and he carzied | yesterday a small silver snuff box, from | hed himself occasionally | corset. during our tall, You need not take the prophet or his views with’ a pinch of snuff, however, for he 1s really a very modern, very in- telligent old gentleman, Dr, Lyman Abbott, Dr. Park- hurst and other bearded American prophets might sit at his feet aud learn many thinge—for instance, | that woman suffrage is right and imevitable.

It 1s because errors have crept into religions that there is div sion and misunderstanding, ‘To elim! nate these errors we must get back to fundamental truth—return to the start ing point.” . The prophet had gotten into the real prophet's stride by thie time and thers 1s no doubt that he and his followers were having’ a most edifying time. But of those who seek lighter reading I ventured an interruption, NO QUESTIONS ANSWERED B THE PROPHET. “But you see there 1s another remedy for strife among religions, I sald to the interpreter, “and New York seems to have found it, Tell the prophet that we are really a lot of heathens and that we don’t need to kiss and make up —we need to belleve—what has he for us to believe?” Head of New Religion, Believes in Woman Suffrage and Divorce i Janitor Knew Where Iceman’s Wife | “Turkey Trot’’ | banker, on ka w a IDAY, APR TAKES FINAL FLING | With Six Months to Live Ex- Banker Shuns Health Resorts and Seeks Pleasure.
