THE CHRISTIANS IN POSSESSION
Greece la Determined to Unite With
CreteTurkey Will Fight Be
fore Surrendering It.
Bebli.v, Feb. 8. A special from
Athena says:
It 1a rumored here that foreign war
ships havo begun bombarding Canea,
island of Crete. No confirmation can
be obtained here. The German war
ship Kaiserin Aagnstine baa been or
dered to proceed aa soon as possible for
the island of Crete.
A dispatch from Canea received this
evening says the Christians about Canea
have hoisted the Greek flag, proclaimed
a onion of that ieland with Greece and
Invited the king of Greece to take pos
cession of it.
Christians In Possession.
' Athens, Fe. 8. The announcement
that Prince George, 'second Bon of the
king of Greece,' will command the tor
pedo fleet which ia now in readiness to
etart for Crete to join the Greek squad
ron, has added strength to the rumors
that Greece will insist upon a anion
with Crete. It is a well-known fact that
the Christians who are now in posses
ion of the whole island, with the ex
ception of Heraklion and Betimo, are
only waiting a signal to proclaim
nnion with that country.
The uprising in Crete ia looked upon
by many statesmen in this country as a
movement on the part of the sultan of
Turkey to draw the attention of Eng-
land, France and Russia away from Con
stantinople. Greece, whose quarrel with
Turkey has been growing more serious
from day to day, has not hesitated to
take advantage of the excesses of the
Turkish soldiers on the island, and is
sending all her naval forces there,
Should the sultan regard this move as a
challenge there would be presented com
plications which will quickly forca the
hand of the powers in dealing with the
Turkish situation.
These fresh and nnanticlpated diffi
culties, the sultan ia no doubt aware,
will put a strain upon the harmony be
tween the powers which.only existed for
a short time. The sultan, therefore,
will naturally be only too glad to destroy
the unity of purpose among the powers
at the expense of a controversy with
Greece.
The Grecian squadron on arriving at
Canea did not salute the Turkish squad
ron.
Advices say .the Mussulmans are pre
paring for a masaacre at Ketimo.
Representatives of some of the powerB
have expressed to the Greek government
surprise that it sent warships to Crete.
Three thousand people took 'part yes
teraay evening in a manifestation in
front of the ministry of marine. There
were continued cries of "Long live
Crete;" "Long live the union." It is
thought possible that a ministerial crisis
will result from the manifestations.
HGHt TO TAKE FLACK AT CARSON
The Location Has at Last Been Decided
Upon.
Carbon, Nev., Feb. 8. Dan Stuart
will not be here until tomorrow, but it
can be stated that the Corbett-Fitzsim
rnona fight will take place in this city,
the information baying been given to
the Associated Press by a man who has
authority to speak.
Already telegrams engaging hotel and
boarding-bouse rooms have been re
ceived. Accommodations will be pro
Tided for 5000 expected from east of the
Bocky mountains, as well as a larger
number looked for from ' the Pacific
-coast states. The railroads and tele
graph companies have begun prepara-
tions to bring in the crowds and handle
the press dispatches. Work on the pa
vihon where the fight will take place
will be commenced as soon aa Stuart ar
rives and designates the location.
A dispatch was received from Chi
cago this morning engaging a block of
100o seats from the Siler-Hogan special,
which will bring not only a Chicago
crowd, but a good part of the Eastern
contingent.
When the fact became known that the
fight was to be at Carson, the people
were much pleased, aa they expect the
visitors will leave benind a large sum ot
money in the aggregate, which will
greatly benefit the citv.
WILL FIGHT THE BUBONIC PLAGUE
Dr.
Tersln, of Paris, Has
Departed for
Bombaj.
New Yobk, Feb. 8. The World's
Paris correspondence says :
At this moment the eyes of Europe
are centered on a little steamer which
left Marseilles a few days ago bearing
Dr. Yersin, of the Pasteur institute, to
Bombay to fight the terrible bubonic
plague with serum which is possessed by
no other man. This is not the doctor
first experience with the dread
r'techouma." as they call the disease in
the East. Dr. Roux, of the Pasteur in
stitute, says:
"Dr. Yersin went to Hong Kong to
study the pest and continne his bacteri
ological studies at the institute in Paris;
Aa soon as be was able to unite the ele
ments of serum antagonistic to tschouma
he departed tor Canton andvAmoy. The
result of his experiments have been that
of 27 cases treated by him in the. fall of
1895 he lost only two, or less than fit
teen per cent, whereas the the usal mor-
talitv amone the persons stricken ' is
eighty per cent and even higher in Bom
bay, where the serm has never been em
ployed. ' .
"The danger of the plague entering
Europe through Tonquin is great should
the disease ' ever eel beyond control
there."

THE AMI-SCALPING BILL.
Bray Go Over ' Until the Next Con
Cress. Washington, Feb. 8. The senate
committee on interstate commerce today
considered -the bill, to prevent ticket
brokerage. Without coming to a de
cision- the committee aojournea until
Wednesday, although the opinion was
expressed it would be useless to report
the bill, because of the opposition, which
would prevent the paseage of any bill
thia session.
The position of the railroads in the
last campaign wa9 the basis of some op
position. In addition the alleged at
tempts by railroads to evade the inter
state commerce law was urged, especially
by Gorman, Chandler and Chilton. No
vote was taken, but there was general
acquiescence in the opinion tnat it
would be best to allow the bill to go
over until the next congress; when, it
was suggested, the evils complained of
could be remedied by a general amend
ment to the interstate commerce law.
At a meeting of the committee next
Wednesday the bill may be taken up
again.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear,
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is bv constitntional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con'
dition of the mucous lining of the Eua
tacbian Tube. When thia tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness ia the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tnbe restoredjto its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases oat of ten are caused
by catarrh, which ia nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free. .

Two Hundred Building;" In Canea Were
Burned.
Canea, Island et Crete, f eb. 8. It is
officially announced that the fires have
been quenched, nearly 200 bnildings
were destroyed and 5000 Christians have
fled. Of this unmber 2000 are on board
British warships. Greek warships have
taken off the remainder of -the Christian
refugees. In conclusion, the report says
tranquillity reigned in the town and vi
cinity and the Turkish troops through
out behaved in an orderly manner. No
excesses are reported on their part. It
is asserted that there has been no plun
dering.
Sultan's Request Declined.
Berlin, Feb. 8. The Frankfort
Zeitung correspondent at Constantinople
telegraphs that Germany declined the
sultan's request to send officers and
financiers to recognize their country as
being inopportune. - France and Belgium,
the dispatch adds, also declined. .
Captured an Arsenal.
Rove, Feb. 8. A dispatch from Canea

Annexation of .Hawaii Essential to
American Commerce.
; Leadership in the commerce of the
Pacific ocean is the natural heritage of
the United States, because the foremost
in ability among the many civilized na
tions inhabiting its coasts. That com
merce is barely in its infancy, but full of
promise of a giant development.' Three
powers are already on ' hand to contest
strenuously for the leadership. Great
Britain, Japan and Russia. Here, as
elsewhere on the ocean, Great Britain is
far ahead of all competitors. ' Russia is
preparing to. enter the game in force, as
soon as her Siberian railway ia opened.
It needs little discernment to per
ceiye that a great advantage in this
competition will be held by any power
which possesees the Hawaiian Islands,
on account ot their location centrally in
the ocean and ate precise intersection
of the creat natural lines of traffic.
But no power so occupying the group
would have as great an advantage as the
United States, by reason of a propin
quity which enables America to rapidly
till the Islands with a population of her
own people, as well as easily to bold and
defend them. While the distance of
Hawaii from the American continent,
2,100 miles, ia within easy communica
tion and control, it is far enough for
powerful outreach of America into the
center of the Pacific . traffic. If popu
lated by Americans, Hawaii will con
stitute a very mighty American outpost
for the purpose of dominating the com
merce of this ocean.
The elements which are to contribute
to thia commerce are such aa to render
certain an enormous development at no
distant period. On one Bide of the
ocean are the 350,000,000 of China and
40,000,000 of Japan, both nations highly
civilized and productive. On the south
west ia Australia, eoon to count 5,000,000
and then 10,000,000 of the powerful and
commercial British people. The Ameri
can Pacific states, will, in a few decades
number 10X00,000, while the western
section of Canadian domain will prob
ably soon number 1,000,000. By the end
of the Twentieth century it is reason
able to expect European populations of
40,000,000 each in Australia and on the
Pacific coast of North ' America. The
commerce now growing and to be de
veloped in the future between such great
populations demands active and timely
provision. .
Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii, is
the central port of Pacific commerce,
What record ia given there oi its growth?
As the most positive test, take the fol
lowing brief tabulation of the number of
ocean steamers arriving at the port of
Honolulu in the last quarters of 1890,
1893 and 1896:
Brit. Am. Jap. Total
1890
5 9-0-14
.. 11 7 1 19
.22 13 4 39
1893
1896
Notice the number of 6teamship ar
rivals haa near doubled in three years
and is now three a week. Observe also
how rapidly the British numbers are
outstripping the .American, being now
56 per cent of the whole, while Ameri
can arrivals are only 33 per cent. At the
present rate of increase of trans-Pacific
steamer traffic, there seems indicated
probability that withing ten years there
will be thirty arrivals a month at Hono
lulu.
It ia nearly certain, however, that a
new and highly stimulating element ia
soon to enter the steam traffic of the
Pacific, especially that part which must
call at Honolulu. That is the opening
of a canal at either Panama or Nicar
agua, probably the latter. - A vaat fleet
of steamers will soon commence running
from Atlantic ports via Nicaragua to
China and Japan. Nearly all of these
will naturally call at Honolulu to re
plenish their coal supply. These may
possibly double the number of steamers
arriving monthly at Honolulu.
Now it is nearly certain that the great
majority of those steamers will be Brit
ish. Consider the natural effect upon
Honolulu of being visited by say forty
steamers a month, to perhaps ten Amer
ican. Unless Hawaii is previously oc
cupied by an American population,' and
ib an American country, it must inevi
tably succumb to this preponderating
British commercial influence. British
merchants and agents will naturally
multiply and possess the commerce and
the country. The advantage thus lost,
will not be so easy to recover; nor will
it be so easy at a later day to take pos
session of what is already practically in
other hands. .
' At the present time Hawaii is sub
Btantially an American country, and is
practically in American hands. That is,
American ideas and institutions pre
dominate, and a major part of the busi
nsss ana tne weaitn ot tne country is in
American hands. - A very healthy and
patriotic American colony of seventy-
five years' growth in reaching its fourth
generation. It has been nourished by
the immense aid of the treaty of recipro
city, it nas greatly Denented by pro
pinquity to the mother land. Yet, not
withstanding those advantages, a Brit
ish colony of, nearly half its size haa
grown up with it. With the powerful
stimulus of an overwhelming British
commerce calling here, it aeema certain
that the latter class Will outgrow the for
mer unless tms group is speedily adopt
ed as a part of the' Union, Annexation
will result in pouring upon Hawaii an
influx of American population which
will at once fix its destiny aa the great
western outpost and fortress of Ameri
can domination over the commerce ot
the Pacific Hawaiian Commercial Ad
vertiser.

The Heroism of a Miller In
Little Girl.
Rescuing a
The brave work of a miller in saving a
little girl from drowning is described
by the Indianapolis Journal. Themiil
owner and his -wife, it appears, had gone
to the city, leaving1 an eight-year-old
girl at home. With other children she
went down, 'to the mill to play, and by
some accident fell into the sluice which
feeds the turbine vbeel. .' :
The head miller heard a scream, and
not knowing what had happened", ap
plied a brake and stopped the machin
ery. Then he ran cut, found the little
girl just disappearing under the water,
and in. he went after her.
t Then he found himself in a hard
place. The water was eig-ht feet deep,
and he was four feet below the top of
the sluice, the sides of which were a3
smooth as a 'polished floor. The girl
was -unconscious. How was he to get

above water, and the other to keep him-

culty confronted him. How was he to

tom, gave an upward spring-, and as
he came up half-blinded, succeeded in
catching the top of the sluice. Then,
by the greatest exertions, he drew him

PERSONNEL OF THE NAVY.
Desertions from Undo Sam's Ships Are
, Few and Far Between.
The report from Washington to the
effect that 4,000 bluejackets are needed
to man the new vessels of the American
na.vy about to go into commission re
colls a. remark made by Admiral Bunce
one day last summer, says the New-
York Mail and Express. The North
Atlantic, squadron lay at anchor off
Staten Island and Father Kniekerbock
er fluid his country visitors were go
ing down to quarantine daily to look
at the splendid fighting ships. A re-
portbr went aboard the flagship one
morning- and enjoyed a pleanant chat
with the gallant admiral. Said he:
"The type of mao-of-war's-man of
to-day is far different from the eld
time bluejacket. Desertions are almost
unknown from the navy now. Hero is
a vessel which cost in round numbers
$2,000,000. The men consider it the'ir
home and they take an immense
amount of pride in it. How many me?i
ore there ashore who can sleep and
eat in a house which cost as much
money? Look about you and note the
faces of the bluejackets here.
The sailoxmen in sight were certainly
a nne-iookmsr iot. J. he acniirai sur
veyed them admiringly and then said:
"So far as the personnel of the crew
goes the vessels in the American nav;
are a way ahead of those of any foreign
power."
DISCREDITING THE HUMANITIES,
The College Bought "Mogs of the Old
Greek Duffers."
It is charged, with a good deal of
vigor and generality of statement, that
the eollege fills the mind with useless
knowledge and trains it in antiquated
methods of thought and action, says
the Forum. In the same breath it is
added that the scientific school give.
practical knowledge and that its train
ing is vital. The comparison between
the dead languages ami the modern is
made always to the credit of the (mod
ern. The value of modern history and
of economic science is made to appear
greater than that of ancient history
and Of philosophy. Scientihc studies
are lauded as by far the most precious
The humanities are discredited. I re
member hearing at a hotel table a con
versation between two recent graduates
of the scientific school of a rioh, and
famous university. "Mr. ," said
one, "gave several tnousana dollars to:
any use the officers wished to make
of the money. And what do you think
they did with it? Why, instead of buy
ing- something useful, they sprait it all
in buying same mugs of the old Greek
duffers." It was evident that the study
of the humanities had not seriously in
fluenced the manners nor the linguistic
tastes of the graduates in question. '

There Is Mystery in Her Movements,
Washington, Feb. 8. Each day the
opinion becomes more general that Lill
iuokalani, the dethroned queen of Ha
waii, is in Washington for political pur
poses. Sne nas denied nerseit to ail in
terviewers, and the cloak of secrecy Is
thrown about her every movement.
Secretary Palmer said last night :
"Now, I don't want you to under
stand that I am voicing the sentiments
of her majesty when I say that this is
what I would like to see done by the
present or incoming administration. '. In
order that the people of the United
States may know something as to the
form of government existing in Hawaii,
I think it wonld be wise for the presi
dent to appoint three commissioners,
one from each of the big political parties
and one independent non-partisan, to
investigate into affairs in Hawaii and
report on the advisability of continuing
diplomatic relations with that govern
ment as it now exists. It is my judg
ment that some startling facts might be
brought to light; something that might
astonish the people of this country."
"Is it the appointing of a tribunal or a
commission that the ex-queen seeks?"
was asked.
"I am giving my own views, not those
of the queen,'-' he said. , - .

table in a Market street restaurant. One
of them drew from his pocket and laid
upon the table a silver dollar, says the
Philadelphia Kecord. Beside it he
placed a visiting card, with a round
hole about a half inch in diameter
pierced through its center. Said he
"See the fat, white dollar ? See the little
hole in the card? Bet you the cigars
can push the big dollar through the
little hole." "I'll go you," said one of
his companions; "but, remember, you
are. to push that dollar through that
hole without enlarging the-' hole.'
"That's what," responded the proposer
of the feat. Laying the dollar flat on the
table, he held the card on edge just be
hind it. Then he produced a pencil
which he shoved through the hole in the
card until it touched the edge of the
coin. ' "Pushing the dollar through the
hole, see?" "Here comes Jonesey, said
the loser. "Lend me your dollar and
jour funny card and I'll get revenge.
Oh, I won t do a thing to Jonesey I"
lengthy, cadaverous young fellow, with
a vacuous expression, drifted into the
vacant place at the table. "Jonesey,'
wiid the loser of the cigars, "here's a
big dollar and here's a little round hole
in a card. Bet you I can put the dollar
through the hole just as it is loser to

said Jonesey. The other proceeded to
repeat the action of the first trickster.

couldn't 'push' it through the perfora

CHINESE JEWELERS.
All of the Work Is Bone by Hand Some
of It Is Beautiful.
There are two jewelers in Chinatown,
but their establishments do not re
semble the ordinary places known as
jewelry shops, says the New York
Times. The Chinese jeweler is a man
ufacturer as well as a shopkeeper. His
establishment is a tiny room up one
or two flights of stairs. The room in
one place is divided by an. openwork
iron partition, with an arch and a coun
ter near the window, where the jeweler
stands at work. He is an elderly China
man, wearing glasses, and he works
over a tiny fire in the window. All his
work is done by hand, and some of it is
beautiful. h There are heavy silver
bracelets which open with a hinge
and fasten with an odd little 6taple.
The fine raised pattern is cut out, every
bit of it, by hand. There are gold rings
made in the same way. There are fine
rings, made of 24-carat gold. Almost
nothing is kept in 6tock. There may
chance to be a few rings and bracelets,
which -are taken from a small safe,
Most of the goods are made to order.
When the manufacturer is asked the
price of a ring he weighs it before he
answers. His scales consist of a slen
der stick of ivory, perhaps a third of a
yard long, covered -With Chinese char
acters. At one end is a small brass plate
suspended from the stick by fine
threads and a very small -weight, also
hangings by a thread, is moved along; to

he holds the little machine in his hand
The front part of the little shop ia filled

into it.
BIG HAT IN CHURCH.
It Fills the Whole Universe for the Man
Behind It.
This is what happens to the man be
hind the hat, says the Chicago Observer
The preacher disappears until nothing
remains but a voice. And wuth the ihat
standing up against the spot where the
voice is, and the modulated sentences
breaking against it, how is attention
to be fixed upon the sermon? The
mind grows lax, the quiet and sweetness
of the sanctuary tend todistraction, the
hat fills the whole visible universe, and
involuntarily one's thoughts center
upon it. ...
It is a wonderful construction'. There
is a yellow rose tremoiing on a long
stem with every movement of the wear
er's head and one begins to calculate
the extent of its arc. There are bunches
of feathers, disposed, amjarehtlv. with a
view to preventing anything' from! be
ing 6een between them whichever way
the hat is turned. ' And there are stal
actites of ribbon, upright and immov
able, . which still further obscure the
horizon.
Occasionally one gets a momentary
glimpse of the head of the preacher as
if is stretched out in gesticulation, but
it seems a mere detached fragment use
lessly -beating the air.1 The preacher
himself has disappeared as if he had
never been. The only thing visible
when the hat is turned for a moment
is another hat of the same kind farther
on. ..
Dissenters In Bnssla.
When M. Pobtednostzeff became the
head of the holy synod in Eussia it
was reckoned that the days of the dis
senters were numbered. He would soon
stamp them out. - In spite, however, of
his ruthless policy, they have steadily
increased, until there are now about
2,500,000 of them without reckoning the
old believers, who are 18000,000 strong.

Sax Francisco, Feb. 8. A plan is

bill through the Nevada legislature.
Local capitalists, who are reputed to be
behind the undertaking, were, it is said,
so impressed by the ease with which a
bill was passed by the Nevada legisla
ture enabling the Corbett-Fitzsimmons
fight to be held within the state, that it
is reported the sum of $100,000 has been
subscribed for the expenses ef lobbying
