BERLIN, juno s.-Tho concert OF the
powere relative to the situation in the Is.
land Of Crete is OF much the Same cnar-
aoter as was the now exploded entonto OF
tho powers In regard to Armenia, and all
semblance OF unity Of purpose is certain
TO disappear upon the slightest approach
to a collision OF interests
The Cologne Gazette. in an exhaustive
article on the subject, thoroughly lights
up the situation
The Vienna Frele Prose-, taking the text
Of Emperor Francis Joseph recent speech
to the Austro Hungarian delegation. ar
guad that the emperor's declarations gave
proof that the dreibund powers were
agreed upon a common policy toward Tur-
key that the interests OF Austria were nl.
so the interests Of Germany, and that the
dreibund was destined 60 intervene in
Turkey almost Immediately.
These arguments are boldly and un-
equivocally attacked by tho Berlin repre-
sentatives of the Cologne Gazette in a
edly declares that Germany will take no
direct part in events IN thu east, and mere
ly desires that order shall DO maintained
and tho status quo continued The policy
of Germany upon this question the writer
adds, IS identical with that Of the other
powers, and, above all, that OF Russia.
The Gazette, in its article which accom-
panios this communication, gives no hint
however, as TO the drift Of the czar pol
icy, TO which Germany Is alleged to be at
tached.
Russia's Hold In Turkey.
The Vossisohe Zeitung, in an article on
the same subject, asserts that Russia Is
exerting practical protoctorate over the
Turkish empire and will not, under any
circumstances, allow any power 60 inter
fere, nor win she accede to anything tend
ing toward a separation or dismembor-
ment of the sultan 5 dOminions Pursuing
the subject the Nossische Zeitung asks:
"Will Russia so inuflenoe the neRotia-
tions Of the powers as to cause a delay
which will enable the Turkish troops in
the island of Crete which have now been
increased TO 1s 600 men, to overpower the
Cretans and prevent the Armenian mas
sacres."
The king of Greece and the Grocan
ministry seem to rely upon the warshlps
which the powers have sont to Canea and
Retimo to intervene in the event of q
massacre of Cretans by the Turks, but at
the same time tho Grecian fleet is being

Six People Killed and Many injured by
Explosion of Bombs.
BARCELONA. June s.-A bomb was
thrown into the crowd during the Corpus
Christi procession. and its explosion re-
suited in the killing Of 6 persons and
the wounding Of so. The perpetrat0r OF
the deed is as yet unknown, and his mo-
tive is equally a mystery.
The news of the throwing Of bomb
into the procession at Cor-us Christi
spread like wildfre over the city and
caused a panic among the great crowds
drawn to tho streets by the religious feeti-
val and the Sunday merrymaking usual
to the city. The story grew as it Travelled
and added TO the fright and horror OF
those who heard It.
The explosion occurred Just as the Cor
pus Christi procession was entering tho
beautiful and ancient church Of Santa
Maria del Mar, which is the graIdest
after the cathedral in Barcelona This is
the heart Of the old city not far from the
water front and the quays and Rlmost
looking upon the Plaza del Palacio-one
of the most thickly populated quarters Of
the populou5 city. The sound of the ex-
plosion and the distressed cries Of tho in
jured and the friends OF the killed created
an indescribable panic among the great
crowds in tho procession and looking on.
The people were terror strioson with the
dread of other bombs being thrown. and
it was with difficulty that thcy were re-
strained from crushing each other to death
in the stampede.
Two dynamite potards were exploded ia
front Of the house Of priest at Orendain
near San Sebastian. on the bay OF Biscay.
Much damage resulted form the expio-
sion, but there was no fatality.

Rough on the sentry.

One Of the most amusing stories OF
the day treats OF mistaken phiIan-
thropy. At certain army post there
was n sentry on duty near the hospital.
The surgeon was preparing to 20 to
bed inside when he was annoyed and
alarmed at the sentry's coughing. His
experienced ear told him that the man
had a severe bronchial nfiiction. need
ing a strong remedy. He debated awhile
with himself. and then. going into the
dispensing room, compounded n power
ful mixture. This he took outside to
the sentry with instructions to swallow
It Immediately. The man refused. Tho
surgeon insisted and finally command
ed the soldier to take the medicine,
which he did with much grumbling.
Then the worthy surgeon went to bed,
pleased to hear no more coughing,
Next morning. to his surprise, the
commanding officer sent for him and
said that the sentry had complained,
declaring that the surgeon had forced
him to swallow something he thought
was poison. An investigation followed
and revealed the fact that while the
surgeon was mixing the medicine the
coughing sentry had been rel,e-.,i and
consequently the remedy had been Civ

quality. In building a smooth wire
fence you do not build 1t for temporary
use but expect It to last you for years
and to get this kind OF an article It
requires certain amount OF good ma

The De Kalb Fence Co., OF De Kalb,
ILL.,. has the largest and most COM

plant In the country. We desire par
ticularly TO call your attention TO their
goods and write them for n catalogue

this company. Their steel web picket

cabled field and hog fence for farm use,
their cabled poultry. garden and rabbit

I lighted them one by one after dark.
when the boughs of the trees were bent
low with the weight Of the croaking

sudden innovation startled the birds az
nothing had ever done before and they

however, the habit of returning there
TO roost was stronger than fear, and
they began coming in by thousands as
the evening approached. After dark I
began with another volley Of candles.

there was a determined bombardment
in progress. They fled precipitately
and the third evening only few re-
turned. A few last shots put them 10

what do you think those birds did! MY
dividing fence runs between the trees
on my property and the trees on the
property Of my neighbor. which are
equally high and equally suitable for
home for the blackbirds. When the
birds were driven from my lot they new
over across the dividing fence to the
trees Of my neighbor and settled. There
was no bombardment over there and
they have stayed there ever since. This
was long time ago. but never since
the last Roman candle was fired Into
