WHawn, I THE MARTYRS OF ARMENIA OBJECT OF TUSK TO STAMP OUT CHRISTIANITIY. Hundreds of Thousands Marc Died in. Preference to Accepting the Mohammedan Faith. The slaughter of between seven and eight hundred thousand Armenians by the Turks since the beginning of the war reveals the Armenians quite as. much martyrs to Christianity as any of the early Christians who died in Nero's arena, writes Viscount Bryce. There are to=day more than a mil- lion Armenians and Syrians starving to death in Asia Minor•, Syria, the Russian Caucasus, Percla and Pales- tine. The relief work for them in America is in charge of the American committee for Armenian and Syrian relief in New York. In the history of the early Christian church there are no figures so glori- ous, none which bave continued to be so much honored by the Church all through its later days, as those of the martyrs, men and women who, from the time of Nero dower to that of Dio- cletian, sealed with their blood the testimony to their faith notwith- standing every lure and every threat, in order to preserve to their death loyalty to their Lord and Master, Christ, Died for Christian Faith, In our own times we have seen this example of fidelity repeated in the Turkish Empire, and it is strange that the Christians of Europe and America should not have been more moved by the examples of courage and heroic devotion which the Armenian - Chris- tians have given. Of the seven or eight hundred thousands of Armenians who have perished in the recent mas- sacres many thousands have died as martyrs, by which I mean they have died for their Christian faith when they could have saved their lives by renouncing it. This has perhaps not been realized even by those who in Europe or America have read of and been horri- fied by the wholesale slaughter and hideous cruelties by which half of an ancient nation has been exterminated. They can hardly understand stow there should be religious persecution in our time, so let me try to explain the facts- It was not religious fanaticism that led the present rulers of Turkey to seek to root out Christianity, Far from being fanatics, most of these men, though nominally Mohammedans, have no religion whatever. Their aim is political. They wanted to make the whole Turkish Empire Mohammedan in order to make it uniform with only one creed and no differences between one class of subjects and another. They saw that the Ctrletion part of the population, suffering under con- stant oppressions and cruelties, con- tinued to \turn its eyes Westward and hope for sbme redress from the Chris - don nations; so they determined to eliminate Christianity altogether. Chris' or Mohammed. During the recent massacres when- ever any Christian would turn Mo- hammedan his life was spared. It was only as a Christian that he was killed. Many a Christian child was torn from its parents to be brought up as a Mussulman. Thousands of Armenian Christian girls were sold in the market or distributed among Turkish otiicers to be imprisoned for life in Turkish harems and there forced into Mohammedanism. But many more thousands of Armenians, women as well as men, were offered their choice between Christ and Mo- hammed, and when they refused Mo- hammed were shot down or drowned forthwith, For days together the bodies of Christian women who had thus perished were seen Rotating down the Euphrates. Surely the 101310ins of this suffering nation could make no stronger appeal for pity and help to the Chsietians of America than they make through these martyr deaths. Only a remnant is now left to whom charity can begt extended. It Is still a sorely afflicted remnant. HowTo Win Time.
