Greece Must Keep Out.

The powers, it is stated, have decided
to send q collective note to Greece, de-
claring that the government of the lat
ter country must suppress the matters
complained of by the Turkish govern
ment, adding that otherwise the sultan
of Turkey will be left to restore order
in Crete. 1t is rumored here that the
Turkish government intends to dispatch
a force Of Albanians against the Greek
flibusterers, step which will undoubt-
edly add considerably to the gravity OF
the situation.

In the recent memoirs of Dean Buck
land an amusing picture is given of
the antipathy felt fifty years ago by
the old classical scholars at Oxford to
the new scientific learning. They
described IL as 'mischievous and alb
surd" When auckland once went to
Rome for q long vacation one of the
elder dons is said to have exclaimed:
well, BIckland has gone to Italy.
Thank heaven, We shall hear no more
of his silly geology"
Learned men do not always appre-
ciate the achievements of their fellows.
1t is said that friend brought Mil
tons Paradise Lost" to great Scotch
mathematician, who remarked when
he had finished it:
Its vera pretty, but, mon, what
does it prove?"
An American, who stated recently in
London club that he was going to
Enfield in search of the grave of
Charles Lamb was astonished to hear
him contemptuously described by an
English statesman as "a flishty writer
of silly papers, in which there was no
mention Of political questions Of his
day"
Paganini, while in England, was
mentioned by great jurist in letter
as poor .iddler who had driven the
town mad with mis- squeaks and
scrapes," and he, no doubt. would have
described his critic as soulless and deaf
to the highest expression of emotion.
An anecdote is told of Henry Clay in
the zenith of his popularity and fame.
Meeting an old schoolmate at recep-
ton, he expressed regret that another
friend, mutual acquaintance, whose
career promised to be brilliant, had
given up his life to the raising of pigs
and making a fortune The friend
presently met the gentleman referred
to, who exclaimed, with a shake of the
head:
Poor Henry Clay! He might have
made good stock grower and be
comfortable planter now if he had not
wasted his time in politics"

His Brother's Revenge.

We are all more or less familiar with

who seem to feel that the simple COM

in need of guidance and direction in
the simplest duties of life.
Mr.. B was a young man OF this
class. He was always painfully pro-
fuse in details regarding anything he
wished DONE He had a parrot, OF
which he was excessively fond, and
when he was about to go abroad for a
few months, leaving his bird behind,
he bored and exasperated his family
and friends with senseless details re-

TRANSFERS.
The City Engineer Has a New
Scheme.
The Union Railroad Company Makes
No Proposition.

II the length OF the transfer ticket COM
mittee conferences may be taken as an
indication the meetings must be exceed
ingly interesting, for today a session was
held for three hours, during which'time,
il is stated, nothing was done. Whatever
might have been done, however, the pub
lie would never know, because reporters
are not admitted to these 'star chamber
meetings Chairman West says the reason
is that the members of the committee
might get into heated discussions and say
things which ought not TO be read. The
principal reason why nothing was done
today is that the railroad company
ella lined not to have understood that IL
was TO make any proposition to the city.
Consequently, no proposition was made.
The committee confidently understood
that the company would propose TO grant
transfers on terms already printed, chief
among them being the release from caring
for the streets, removing snow, etc, all
of which they say costs 10000 ger
Hnnum.
Most of the committee was seen as to
what concessions should be given the
road. Alderman McCarthy's answer fits
them all-"NlT"'
The committee did one thing today,
however. Ii carefully listened to City
Eng ineer Shedd's plans for a system Of
transfer tickets which will prevent cheat
ing and cost nothing, he thinks. The
committee was very much pleased, but

each emitting the holder 10 ride four
miles on any OF more lines, n coupon
torn of for each mile. These would be
given only to those who intend TO ride
four miles.
The fare would remain at 5 cents.
