CoNST.mi.vori.E, May 14. Official
dispivtchua from Lurieea dated yesterdny
gay the Turkish divisions which are
marching upon Domokos, Greek head
quarters, occupied the villages of Hadk
jinainnr(Hndzi Amari), Bekrilo, Karalar,
Pouiiar and Vardali. Yardali ia only
about five and one-half miles north of
Domokos, and a little west of Sarissa.
Consequently today the Turkish forces
should be before Domokos. Even the
Greek sailing vessels, which, with their
cargoes, have been captured by the
Turkish war vessels, have been brought
into tho Dardanelles.

quarters of the Greek army at Domokos
announce that the Turkish forces are
executing movements which are believed
to foreshadow an attack upon the Greek
position. It is reported the Turkish left
wing has evacuated Almyros, and is mov
ing toward I'imrealatu the right of the
rear of the place.
General Smolenski, commanding tho
Greek right wing, haB reoccupied Almy
ros, restoring telegraphic communication
with Greek headquarters. Unless the
rearward movement by the Turks is the
result of the Action of the powers, it is
believed to indicate that Edhem Pasha
is again concentrating his troops pre
paratory to making n general attack
upon the main Greek stronghold.

Sax Fkancisco, May 14. Theodore
Durrunt, through his attorneys, will ask
Governor Budd today to pardon him, cn
tlie ground that tho real murderer of
Manche Lainont has at last coufeesed
his crime. The lawyers declare that
they have not been hoaxed, nor is it
their purpose to impose on the executive.
They insist that in the person of John
Itoteiiberg, a convict at San Quintin
Prison, they have discovered the man
who is guilty of the horrors m Emanuel

John Uosenborg has made a sworn
confesaiou before a notary public and in
the presence of several witnesses that
lie killed Blanche Lainont at the insti
gation of a stranger, and in consideration
of tho payment of 1700 for my bloody
work. It is with this sensation that the
attorneys will strengthen their case at
Sacramento today.
The story and its details ia one of the
most remarkable that has developed in

Blanche Lamont is utterly discredited
here, no one placing the least credence
in it. The police pronounce it a baseless
fabrication. The ship Hospidar, on
which Rosenberg says he came hither
from Hamburg, arrived according to
the records of the harbor commissioners,
in November, 1895, but the police say
she arrived in June, 1895. In either
case, her arrival was subsequent to the
murder ot Blanche Lamont, for which
Dorrant is to Le hanged. Sne was
murdered in April, 1895, so Rosenberg
could not possibly be her murderer.

Mr. James Rowland of this village,
state that for twenty-five years his wife
has been a sufl'erer from rheumatism.
A few nights ago she was in such pain
that she was nearly crazy. She sent
Mr. Rowland for the doctor, but he bad
read of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
instead of going for the doctor he went
to the store and secured a bottle ot it.
His wife did not approve of Mr. Row
land's purchase at first, but neverthe
less applied the Balm thoroughly and in
an hour's time was ahle to go to sleep.
She now applies it whenever she feels an
ache or a pain and finds that it always
gives relief. He says that no medicine
which she had used ever did her as much
good. The 25 and 50 cent sizes for sale

filled with people who cannot eat and

this discovery of their Digestive Cordial.

VANDERBILT'S FAMOUS SAYINGS
True Story of tin "l'lilttlc-Ho.
On m noil" Attn I r.
One of the very few epigrammatic ut
terances of the multi-millionaires of
America one which has become as fa
miliar to the people of the English-
speaking world n. Shakespearean quota
tions was the "public 1)0 damned" dec
laration of the late A illiam 11. Vnnder
bilt. Thousands, almost millions, have
used it in one. way or another since it
was uttered in tho early summer of
1SS2, and in every political campaign
since that time it. has lccn thethemeof
countless anti-monopoly disroutsets.
Yet very few if ai.yof those who have
used it. could U;ll even one of tho cir
cumstances under which the expres
sion was given to the public.
To Col. Nate A. Reed, of Chicago, at.
present editor of the llanner of GoTd,
belongs the sole credit, of prcse.ring
the famous phrase from the oblivion to
which an obtuse reporter was about 1 -
consign it, when he rescued it and made
it a household phrase, especially with
tho populists, and the full story of how
this was done is now probably given to
the public for the first time by one
who was present at the time.
Clarence 1 Dresser ran a sort of
suburban news bureau in South Chicago
in 18SI2, supplying all of the papers with
the same mailer. He was ambitious to
become a railroad editor and never
missed trying to see the magnates who
passed through his bailiwick. Col. Reed
was at that, time night editor of the
Chicago News and was a man with a.
"keen nose for news." Late one night
in the early summer of 3SS2 Dresser
entered the News ollice with his bundle
of duplicate manuscripts to deliver the
news quota. Col. Reed met him and as
usual asked what Dresser had that
night. Dresser gave some of what he
ronsidered the best of bin news and
then said that ho had tried to secure an
interview with William 11. Vandcrbilt
on nil important public question, but
had poor success.
"What did Vandcrbilt say to you
about it?" asked Reed, carelessly, half
dismissing the interview matter from
his mind.
"Oh, nothing," Dresserreplied. "When
J asked him about the matter, saying the
public would like to hear his views, he
answered only: 'The public be dimmed.'
1 could not get anything more from
him."
"What was that?" almost shouted
Reed, awake in an instant to the. groat
value of the expression. "What did he
say? Did he say: 'The public be
damned ?' Are you sure?"
Dresser declared that those were the
very words used.
"Co right into my room and write
everything you can about that expres
sion, " cried Reed, at the uaim time
pushing Dresser into the night editor's
sanctum. "Mind you- do not miss a
point of it, and make 'The public be
damned' stick out above everything.
I'll see that you are well paid for it."
As won as Dresser entered the room,
which was on the fourth floor of the
News office, Reed locked the door and
kept Dresser a prisoner for the rest of
the night, thus assuring the News n
"clean scoop" on all of its Chicago con
temporaries. The interview was published with cir
cumstantial details that morning and
was soon copied nil over the world.

Nearly everybody knows that the

and the fact of this additional cuticle
may account for the extraordinary in

The following facts are vouched for by
a ritoir as being absolutely correct :

the burning mass was bom nth his foot,
and, although an enormous blister a:
