Athens confirms the report that the
Greeks nave ubandoned Tyrnavos and
Larissa and concentrated on the second

diBcuasing the question aa to whether
the time has not arrived for the powers
to take immediate steps to arrest the
further advance of the TurkB in the
Greek peninsula.

OTJIAN PASHA'S CAMPAIGN.
He M ill Almiiunti lCpirus mid Strength
en His Invndliig Army.
Paeis, April 24. It is stated in a dis
patch from Constantinople this evening,
that Osman Tasini's plan of campaign
is to recall all the Turkish forces in
Epirus, leaving only a strong garrison at
Janina, and to abandon the province.
The Turkish army in Epini3 will be thus
able to effect a junction with the army
in Thessaly by marching northward
around the mountains dividing the two
provinces. Osman Pasha would have
the whole Turkish force at his disposal,
and would be able to deal a decisive
blow.

Refuses to Itrenk all Diplomatic isola
tion AVI til Greece.
Constantinople, April 24. As pre
viously announced in these dispatches,
the Turkish government some d.iys ngo
called upon Bnlgana as a vassal of Tur
key to break off all diplomatic relations
with Gteece and expel the Greek consuls
and Greeks from Bulgarian territory.
The Bulgarian government took the
matter under consideration, and it is
now announced has declined to comply,
declaring she will observe neutrality
during the war between Turkey and
Greece. This refusal of Bulgaria to ac
knowledge her vassalage to Turkey is
regarded as a very important departure,
and as foreshadowing a declaration of
independence by Bulgaria.

We would like to look into the pleas

any derangement of the digestive organs.
We Eee the drawn and unhappy faces of
dyspeptics in every walk of life. It is
our national disease, and nearly all com
plaints Bpring from this source. Re
move the stomach difficulty and the
work is done.
Dyspeptics and pale, thin people are
literally starving, because they don't

MONEY IN THE ASHES.
DlNcnrdi'il Tin CmiH Itesoned nnti
Turned Into C'fisli.
On eveiry dumping1 ground where the
city contractors of Brooklyn place their
ashe.s one may see constantly Italians
working hard leveling1 the heaps, as
load after load Is deposited, and care
fully placing: the tomato cans aud other
eait-oil' pieces of tinware in piles In
tLuiiselves. The contractors do not ob
ject if the householders put old cans
among the ashes, for ,tliis insures n
eiueful leveling' by the Jtulians at the
dumping grounds at no expense to the
contractors.
The revenue from these cans tliat are
collected by the hundreds of thousands
is a matter of surprise to most peisons.
A two-horse load brings- from $G to $3.
It takes several days of hard work to
get a big wagon load, but the Kalians
don't seem to mind the labor of it, for
there is money immediately in sight as
the piles of tin cans grow. They watch
jealously their picking grounds, and
sometimes make special arrangements
with the contractors for the privilege
of scraping and raking the ash heaps
over.
The tin cans are sold to men with
furnaces, who place them in n big cal
dron and under a slow fire anelt the
tin and solder and run that part off for
future use and sale. Almost all the tin
and solder is sned by this process, and
is salable for use in making more cans
for preserving vegetables.
The heat is then made intense and
the iron that remain, is melted and cast
Into sash weights. The demand for
these old cans is said to be greater than
the supply, and one of the most valuable
of 'the scavenger privileges that the
Italians in large cities assume in that
of working over an ash dump. N. Y.

Two years ago R. J. Warren, a drug

email supply of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. He funis up the result as fol

known in this section; to-day Chamber

communities. Where ever tho good
qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy become known the people will have
nothing else. For eale by Blakeley &
