(Correspondence of the Associated Press.) The various stages of the British campaign which has now brought the soldiers into Palestine are marked hy the stations on lhe wonderful hew railway across the Sinai desert. Just the names of these stations tell how the Turks have been driven back step by step Ronumi, Katia, El Arish and Rafa, marking the successive phases of their retirement. The country in which the army now is operating is "on the fringe of the desert which divides Egypt from the center of Palestine. So far as army observation goes. It does not flow with either milk or honey; if it would only flow with wster the army would ask no more of It It has been a battlefield from time immemorial, im-memorial, a Flanders of the east. Modern Mod-ern Gaza is said not to be on the same site as the ancient city, with whose gates Samson made so free. It looks a pleasant enough town, but is a very unhealthy un-healthy spot in which to live. The privileged traveler alights at the last station of the desert railway in the midst of a country of rolling downs, not unlike some parts of England or of the central west. Much barley is grown here. Inland the country is flatter and beyond tho Tt.ikish line is a range of hills stretching away to Beersheba in the east. 1 The wadis, or water courses, are the most1 distinctive feature. The most important of these is the Ghuzza, which varies In width from about thirty yards to fully half a mile. Nearly every part of the British empire is represented on the beach at li;ithi::g time men from every county in England, Scotchmen, Irishmen, Welshmen, New Zcalanders, Indians and Egyptians of all types. The scene is an unforgettable one, and the swim is always followed by a delectable luncheon of figs and olives, freoh from the trees.
