ASYLUM OF EXILES.
Prioces' Islands Has Been Home of
"any Famous Omen.
The National Geographic society has
issued the ‘iollowing bulletin concern-
ing the Princess" Islands in the Sea of
Marmara. where the warring factions
of Russia have been asked to send del-
egates for a conterence at which it is
hoped the internal dissensions in the
vast Slay dominions can be composed.
“It would seem that the peace con-
ference in Paris may hnve had the
number of the Princes' islands in
mind as well as their geographical lo~
ration when they were named as the
place of meeting February 15 for the
warring factions in Russia. There are
nine lslands~enough for each group
of ddegates to have an island to than
selves should such a course of seg-
regation prove experient.
“The islands lie from .rten to fifteen
I mlles'sdnthe'ast of Constantinople, near
the Asiatic shore. Four of them are
inhabited, and the largest of the group.
Prinkipo talso called l’ityusa, mean-
ing ‘rich in pines') has a population
at morr’ than 10,000. Turks and
Creeks being about equal in number.
"The islands in modern times have
been popular as summer resorts. owing I
to the selubrity of their climate and,'
their proximity to the Turkish capitall
“Few islands have a history more
poigmnt vith tragedy. with high
hopes and shattered dreams. with dis-
bolical machinations of empire wreck-
ers and makers than these few square
miles of earth washed by the waters
of the Murmurs. Their very name is '
significant of their past. {or in the
days of the Byzantine empire they
were the retreats, either forced or vol—
untary of princes and princesses who
had fallen into disfn vor at the nearby
court.
“Each island of the group could tell
it's own story of inmoua exiles. None
is morepathctlc, however, than that 0!
