This statue was raised by popular siubscriiption In Ath ens, and was urn-oiled hy Prince Cou stantlne, the crowin prince of Greece and Duke of Sparta, In April, last year. The ceremonies were Impressive, and were attended by great crowds of the Atheniians. When the war broke out with Turkey M. Averoff inresonted 40, 000 unlfoniis to the Greek army, and the Crown Prince sent him a letter of thanks by n ieclal messcaigor. Later Ayeroff donated a few million dollars to the war fund of Greece. Averoff Is a native of Greece, who. In his boy hood, went to Russia and RuKsJaiilzed his name. The start of his immense fortune was made with his uncle, who was a Uusslain merchant.

Gustav Kolibe writes a paper on "Heroism ln the Lighthouse Service" for the Century. Mr. Kobbe says: Sev eral of the violent storms that have whirled over Matlnlcus Rock have tried the fortitude of the little band of faithful watchers upon it. One of these watchers, Abby Burgess, has become famous ln our lighthouse annals, not only for long service, but also for brav ;ry displayed on various occasions. Her father was keeper of the rock from 1 853 to 1801. In January, 1858, when she was 17 years old, he left her In charge of the lights while he crossed to Matlclnua Island. His wife was an Invalid, his son was away on a emisf, and his other four children were littln gills. The following day it began to "breeze tip;" the wind increased to a gale, and soon developed into a storm almost ns furious as that which carried away the tower on Minot's Ledge In 1851. Before long the seas were sweep ing over the rock. Down among the boulders was a chicken-coop which Abby feared might be carried away. On a lonely ocean outpost like Matlnl cus Rock a chicken is regarded with affectionate interest, and Abby, solici tous for the safety of the inmates of the little coop, waited her chance, and when the seas fell off a little girl rush ed kuee-deep through the swirling water, and rescued all but one of the chickens. She hnd hardly closed the door of the dwelling behind her when a sea, breaking over the rock, brought down the old cobble-stone house with a crash. While the storm was at Its height the waves threatened the gran ite dwelling, so that the family had to take refuge in the towers for safety; nnd here they remained, with no sound to greet them from without but the roaring of the wind a round the lanterns, and no sight but the sea sheeting over the rock. Yet through it all the lamps were trimmed and lighted. Even after the storm abated, the reach between the rock and Matlnlcus Island was so rough that Captain Burgess could not return until four weeks later. He Was No Glass-Eater. It is not always easy to Introduce modern Improvements without a pre liminary course of Instruction for the people who are to benefit by them. Dr. James Hutcheson, a physician of much local renown In Lynbrook, Long Isl-1 and, Illustrates this fact by telling a story of one of his patients, who is a ! fisherman of great shrewdness, but small education. I One of the doctor's favorite prescrlp-; tlons Is compounded of one-half capsl-' cum and one-half something else. Like inany other country physicians, he dis-; penses most of his own medicines, and usually keeps a stock on hand of this particular compound, made Into pills. One day he wished to give some of It to the fisherman, but finding that his pills were all gone, he took the equivalent powders and packed them Into two-grain capsules. These he handed to the patient, with Instruc tions to take two of them once in so often. A few days later the man hailed him as he drove by his house.! After a little chat the doctor, seeing that ho was bet ter, asked If he had taken all the medi cine. "Oh, yes, I took It just as you told me. But my, what hot stuff It is! I never tasted anything quite so hot as that was." "Yes, It is rather hot," admitted the doctor, not caring to ask any questions, but wondering a little how tihe man found It out, and how he managed to swallow it If he really did get a good taste of the capsicum. He was about to drive on when the fisherman said: "Hold on a minute and I'll get them little bottles for you. They're no good to me," and stepping into the house he brought out the cap sules, uninjured, but empty. "Oh!" exclaimed the doctor, as a great light broke In on him. "But why didn't you take the bottles and all, just as they were? That's what I meant you to do." "Not much!" said the fisherman. "I don't know much about medicine, but you dou't get no glass Into my lu'ards!" Southern Forests Disappearing. In Georgia. Florida, Alabama and other Southern States the grand old forests of pine are rapidly disappear ing. The destroyers seem to have no thought of the future. They make no steps to replace that which they lake away. The Influence of forests upon rainfall, moisture and seasons is pret ty well understood. The point has about been reached at which It is nec essary that something should be done to put a stop to forest destruction. If steps to that end are not taken it will not be a great while before this sec tion will suffer a succession of drouths, floods and severe storms. There should be some way of preserving the forests for the general good. Our people are selling their birthright for a mess of pottage. It is well enough that lands should be cleared up for settlement, but millions of acres of forests are dis appearing every year, and very little Is coming In to compensate for the loss. Savannah News. Why Smokestacks Escape Lishtnina Statistics show that of 10,000 smoke stacks only three are struck by light ning each year, while of 10,000 church spires sixty-seven, and of 10,000 wind mills eighty-nine are struck by light ning annually. An endeavor has been made to explain this condition by the fact that the smoke discharged from the smokestacks takes the electricity assembled around the building along and distributes It In the air, whereby the source of attraction for the electric spark of lightning Is not only dimin ished, but almost disappears. This fact also explains, It Is said, why peo ple In the country kindle a large fire ln the fireplace when a thunderstorm Is approaching. There are lots of pI)le out of the penitentiary who would be there it they were not watched. $400 m not $200 Two San Francisco grocers Ring Bros, and T. $alomon won $100.00 each because they sent the most yellow tickets before June 15th. But grocers and clerks can get more tickets than other consumers; so we also paid $10000 each to the two persona named below : Mrs. Wm. Funk, Winnemucca, Nevada, 131 tickets. Mrs. L. During, S19 Bryant Street, San Francisco, 72 ticket's. Mrs. During got a number of friends in San Francisco and near by (one keeps a boarding house) to give her their tickets ; and she used the tea herself. ' By the way, she uses Schilling's Best baking powder and extracts too bad she doesn't know how good Schillings Best spices are! But she says the extracts and baking powder are wonderful. A woman in Stockton, who keeps a restaurant, came very near getting a prize. She deserves one for supplying her customers such good tea. Better read our advertisements every day some contain suggestions how to win the prize. By the way, grocers can't compete for the two $150.00 prizes offered for the most yellow tickets in one envelope betneen June 151I1 and August 31st. They can, however, compete for the f 1000.00 prize. B 4 SCHILLING'S BEST TEA SAM FRANCISCO y r Does Your Back Hurt? The Dull Pain. The Tired Ache. The Sharp Pain. The "Catch" in Your Back. PR. A. T.

Erankl!n'a Bequest in Court, If Benjamin Frunklin, one of the wisest of men, could have foreseen the difficulties und complications tliut have grown out of his famous bequest to the city of Boston of $5,000, more than 100 years ago, he would probably have can celled that part of the will, or at least made its provisions very different, re marks the Buffalo Commercial. The fund, which now amounts to 1.148,000, lias been invested mainly as he direct ed. At the end of the first hundred years the principal was to be laid out at the discretion of the malingers of the donation to the town of Boston, "in public works which may be judged of most utility to the inhabitants, such as fortifications, bridges, aqueducts, pub lic Imililings, baths, pavements, or whatever may make living in the town more convenient to its people and ren der it more agreeable to Btrangers re sorting thither for health or temporary residence." The money is in the Bos ton city treasury, but it appears the municipal authorities and the trustees are ut loggerheads as to their respec tive powers, and also as to the method of its expenditure, and as a last resort the matter has been carried to the courts. An application is to be made to the supreme court of Massachusetts to decide who has authority under the will to expend the money in one of the sev eral ways suggested by the testator. It is to be hoped a way out of the diffi culty will be found and that the fund will be used to establish the Franklin tiades school, as has been proposed. It is one of the most remarkable legacies ever made, and tile benevolent intent is plain enough, though perhaps not ex pressed in sufficiently definite terms. Iluripfl thfl Wrung C'orpae. Fuirplay describes the following as a true story: Lately an English family had the misfortune to lose an aged aunt, who died in St. Petersburg. Ar rangements were most carefully made and directions sent that the body should be forwarded to England to be interred in the family vault. In due time a magnilicent coffin arrived and before it was lowered to its last resting place it was opened for inspection. Much to the dismay of the family, instead of finding the familiar features and frail form of their beloved aunt, the corpse of a Kussiun officer, clothed in military garments and decorated with ribbons and medals, was disclosed to view. A frantic telegram was dispatched to the Russian capital, to which the following answer was returned: "Lady buried yesterday with military honors. Please keep the goneraL" A grasshopper can spring more than JQ0 times its own length How Hawaii la 1'ronounceil. As we have now started on the road toward the annexation of Hawaii, it is but natural that Americans should want to pronounce the nitine of the forthcoming new territory correctly. The correct pronunciation' is "Ha-wi-e," the "a" sounded as in "father," the "i" as in "time,1; and the 'V as in "we," the accent being oil the sec ond syllable. It is well to know how the new territory is prjctuoaiioed, says the Chicago Tribune, oven before it en ters into the Union. New Use for Sand Riant.
