ix u Victory.
London-, March 16. The Chronicle
says the ultimatum to precede the block
ade will take tlie form of a peremptory
Bumtuona from the admirals to the
Greek authorities.
The Chronicle holieves that although
owing to pressure brought to bear by
the powers, Bulgaria and Servia will
remain neutral, yot, in the event of war,
Servia will send troops into old Servia
to establish her claims there.
The Times correspondent is informed
that tho advance of Turkish troops
across the frontier is now confidently
expected. Fifiteen thousand Greek
will embark tonight and tomorrow for
Volo. The government is reserving
16,000 in specie for the payment of the
July coupons.
M. Averaofl, tho wealthy Greek of
Alexandria, who contributed a million
drachmas toward to expense of the res
toration of the Stadion, has offered to
provide the government with 40,01)0
uniforms. Greeks of Marseilles have
cent 1000 as a contribution to the
emergency war fund.
The Times correspondent at Canea
save that autonomy is not in the leunt
degree understood by the 'Mussulmans
there, and it is not impossible that there
will be trouble when they learn that it
means the departure of the garrison and
officials. A 3trong force ought to be
present when the official proclamation
is formally made.
AX XA LKGK1) COLLUSION.
Itiissiu is Sulil to be Secretly Support
ing Greece.
Nnw Yowc, March 10. A cable dis
patch from the Presa correspondent at
Athens s.iys :
"I learn that secret negotiations are
proceeding between King George and the
Russian government. This information
conies from au absolutely trustworthy
authority. Kussia is undoubtedly play
ing a two-faced game with Turkey and
with the powers. There is an' under
standing that when the Greek army
crosses the frontier Russia Bhall find a
pretext to seize Constantinople.
"The understanding, so far as King
George is concerned, is that in the gen
eral conflict in the Balkans, which is
eure to bo followed by fighting on the
frontier and tho dissolution of the Turk
ish empire, which would follow a seize
of Constantinople by the Russians,
Greece is to be encouraged to seize
Macedonia, with the czar's promise in
advance that she shall bo permitted to
retain the province.
Blockade Mot Yet Proclaimed.
Oanea, March 16. Noon The admi
rals of tho foreign fleets have not
yet proclaimed a blockade of the Island.
The Greek squadron, with the exception
of two vessels, has left Cretan waters,

paring to leave.

Ely-Wnlker Store at St. Louis in a Total
Loss.
St. Louis, March 10. Nothing re
mains of the big block bounded by 8th
and St. Charles streets and Washington
avenue, occupied by the Ely-Walker
Dry Goods company, but a mass of ruins.
At 1 o'clock today tlie flames bad not
entirely been subdued. A conservative
estimate made today places the loss at
$1,600,000.
The Ely-Walker Etock of goods, valued
at about $1,200,000, is a total loss.. The
Jobs on the building, owned by John R.
Lionberger, is estimated at $300,000.
The adjoining building, owned by Lig
gett & Myers, was damaged about $10,
000. The VeerBteeg-Grant Shoe Com
pany's Iosb is $25,000; Gauss-Shelton
Hat Company, $20,000. The insurance
aggregates $1,000,000.
A defective electric light wire is sup
posed to have caused the fire.
There b more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all othe diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrah Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, i& the
only constitutional cure on. the market.
It is taken internally in doses from ten
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for

Dungem of the Grip.
The greatest dangers from La Grippe
is of it resulting in pneumonia. If rea
sonable care is used, however, and
Uhamberlain's Cough Remedy is taken,
all danger will be avoided. Among the
ten of thousands who have used this
remedy for la grippe, we have yet to
learn of a single case having resulted
in pneumonia, which shows conclusively
that this remedy is a certain preventive
of that dread disease. It will affect a
oermanent cure in less time than any
other treatment. The 25 and 50 cent

UNCOOKED FOOD.
The Strange Pare of Three Hearty
California Women.
Every Article of Food Contained Is
in the Natural State Why
This Odd Regime Is
Preferred.
T.hcro ore three charming women in
Berkeley who constitute the exception
necessary to prove, the rule tihat. man
is a cooking animal. They regard cook
ing as barbarity. Their dainty palates
rebel at the suggestion of any food that
has had its crude nature modified by
fire. To them the chef and all his works
nre anathema maranatha. They cat
three hearty uncooked meals every day,
and are ns plump as partridges, as rosy
as pippins and as happy ns sandboys
withal.
This gastronomical eccentric trio con
sists of Mrs. L. Beal and her two daugh
ters, Alice and Mary Beal. The Reals
are a cultured English family. Their
wealth and intelligence p'reclude the
idea that their extraordinary diet
should ihave been adopted through
either economy or imperfect investiga
tion into matters of science. They
moved from Englnnd to the South Sea
islands, where Mr. Beal was a repre
sentative of her majesty's royal govern
ment. "When Mr. Beal died they came
to California, and have been living in
a very pretty little place which nestles
among the Berkeley hills.
It was during their residence in the
islands of the South sen that theBeals
acquired their taste for uncooked food.
The Beals are in no sene simple
caters of fruit. Their regimen includes
all kinds of vegetables, cereals, fruit,
berries every thing, in fact, except
meat. But nothing is permitted to ap
proach the. oven or the pot, the frying
pan or the griddle.
The first article on the Beal break
fast menu is mush. That is, they call it
mush, but no one would recognize it
as the time-honored article. The raw
material is taken from the original
package and deposited in the dish of
each brenkfaster. To this is added milk
to suit. The Beals-do not confine them
selves to one kind of mush, but devour
by turns oats in different forms, corn
meal and wheats, but always raw as
the artScle comes from the grocery. To
this are added fruits, nuts and one veg
etable, all inn stale of nature.
At luncheon uncooked bread takes
the place of the uncooked mush. Wheat,
com or barley coarsely ground and
mixed with milk is the cubstitutt for
bread upon the Beal table. Luncheon
is completed much like the breakfast.
Dinner is completed by adding two
vegetables, to the luncheon menu and
by varying the uncooked "bread." Any
vegetable that may be in season is al
lowed string beans, cabbage, lurnips,
carrots, artichokes or asparagus, as the
case may be. Green corn eat an from
the cob uncooked is paid to be. a great
luxury, and raw green peas arc de
scribed as delicious. When fresh fruits
are out of season the dried fruits nre
accepted ns a substitute. Canned fruits
are never served, because they are
cooked before canning. Among the
dried fruits prunes find the greatest fa
vor with the Beal family. Tea and cof
fee are never used, because the Benls
regard the brewing thereof as a form of
cookery.
"We live upon uncooked food simply
because we believe that it is the, best,"
said Mrs. Beal. "It is not a religious
mania, but it is done because we are
satisfied that it is proper from a scien
tific point of view. Our dietary habits
nre the result of our experience while
living in the islands, and, now that we
ore in the heart of civilization, we do
not see nny reason to change it."
The simplicity that is exhibited in
eating is carried through the remainder
of the house. The furnishing of the
place is very simple, but of the finest
that ran be purchased. The floors of
the house are uncarpeted, but are of
hardwood, highly iwlished, with rug
made from the pelts of wild animals
found in the islands. The rniment of
Mrs. Beal and her daughters is us sim
ple and yet as expensive as the rest of
their environments. San Francisco Ex
