CAN'T STOP HER.
All the Threats of the Six
GOliaths of Europe
Can't Brighten Greece From
POuncing on Turkey.
MOST READY FOR WAR.
Her Army Now Massed ON the
Turkish Frontier.
Turkish Army Badly Fed and
Clothed and is DemOralized.

Constantinople, March 23.-The war
preparations of Greece are continuing
night and day and there are no indica-
tions of a back down in that quarter.
Money does not appear to be lacking
for the equipment of the Greeks and
large supplies of arms and ammunition
have been forthcoming from what
sources is not 50 clear. There is one
feature of the situation which should
not be overlooked. The Greeks are an
imated by the strongest feeling of war
like enthusiasm while the Turks are
said to be suffering the greatest priva-
tiOns without pay or proper equipment
which has made them sullen and re-
sentful, but far from desirous of enter
ing upon an aggressive campaign. If
war is declared the Greek army from
Larissa will probably try to enter Mac
edonia while the Crown Prince Con-
stantine and a second Greek army will
attempt to enter Epirus from the vicin-
ity of Arta.
It is still possible that war may be
averted by timely concessions to Greece
such as the withdrawal of all Turkish
forces from Crete and the selection of
Prince George of Greece as governor of
Crete with the understanding that
when quiet is restored, it shall be DE
cided by plebiscite whether or not the
island is to be annexed to Greece.

ssCAPITAL'' SOLD.
Mr.. Mulvane Finally Clears Up All
Claims and Gets the Paper
for $4,000.

The Topeka Capital was sold at II
o'clock this forenoon under an order
from the United States circuit court
and bought by d. w. Mulvane. 1t was
simply a formal matter and places the
property in the hands of Mr.. Mulvane
unhampered by any debts of Major J.
K. Hudson.
The bid was S52. 00O which is S274 81
less than the amount of the claims of
Mr.. Mulvane. One of the claims was a
judgment against ]. K. Hudson for
$46, so and the other was a juds-
ment of 5,546 66 against the Topeka
Capital company. These claims were
made the first lien on the property by
the decree of Judge Williams made AT
Fort Scott
The claim of J. E. Baker who first IN
stituted proceedings for a receiver
which amounted to $7,156.51 was set
tied and there were no other claimants
under the decree.
1t is understood that the management
will continue as heretofore.

NO FAITH IN TURKEY.
Her Promises Are Regarded as Wholly
Valueless.

London, March 23-The Chronicles
special correspondent at Athens learns
that Bulgaria recently sent a special
agent to propose that the Greeks, Ser
via, and Bulgaria approach the powers
Jointly with a view to securing reforms
from Turkey Greece declined the pro-
posal on the ground that the promises
of Turkey are valueless. Friendly rela-
tions, however, continue undisturbed
between Bulgaria and Greece. All pri-
vate horses in Athen were requisitioned
Several milliOnaires gave their entire

Roughly speaking, the following is
the relative strength of the two great

it is difficult to obtain anything like
the exact figure. The Turks have 20.-
600 troops and $50 guns, the Greeks al
most 10000 troops but fewer guns than
the Turks. The Greeks are sadly de-
ficient in cavalry, while the Turks
have 10000 mounted troops, who are like

"RADLEY BARTON BALL"
Oscar Hammerstein's New Burlesque
Which Appeared Last Night

New York. March 23.-A1l the mani
fold resources of the Olympia were con-
centrated in the Music hall last night
when the regular spring session was in
augurated with a superb production of
Mr.. Oscar Hammerstein's new musical
burlesque Mrs. Radley Barton's Ball
in Greater New York" In the opinion
of competent critics, the production
equals in splendor anything of the kind
ever seen in this city. The services of
nearly 100 people were employed; there
was an especially painted scenic en-
VirOnment and the costumes were beau
tiful, rich and costly.
AS handsome and complete as were
the other SpectacleS that Mr.. Hammer
stein has staged at the Olympia, the
present production in every way excels
those which so firmly established
the reputa ton of this amusement pal
ace for lavish expenditure and richly
beautiful results. The burlesque is more
than simple traVesty of an important
social function. The scheme of prOduc-
tion has elaborated upon it and now
partakeS more of the nature of a trOpi-
cal review of people and events, touch
ing humorously and felicitousIy upon
many things that have interested the
public at large.
Mr.. George Monroe, as Mrs. Radley
Barton and Miss Alice Rose as the
princess Shemay' of the caste, are
particularly worthy of mention, al
though every part was rendered in a
manner that gave evidence of most
careful training.

HUNTER FAILS
OF Election to the Kentucky Senator
ship on First Trial.

Louisville, March ga special to
the Evening Post from Frankfort, Ky,
says:
Today was the first on which separ-
ate ballots could be taken for a United
States senator to succeed Senator J. c..
S. Blackburn under the ruling of Lieu
tenant Governor WorthingtoP.
All morning rumors were rife of the
boiling of six Republican members
who would not support Congressman
Godfrey w. H. Hunter, the nominee of
the combination between few Repub-
1icanS and Democrats to elect Governor
Bradley to the United States senator
ship thus causing vacancy in the gov
ernor's office and making an opening
for the Democrats. Hunter has been
hard a work using federal patronage
on the boilers and at 10 O'Clock an
nounced he would certainly win on he
first ballot. This assertion, however,
proved to be untrue
At II o'clock the two houses balloted
with the following result: In the SEN
ate the vote stood Blackburn Gree sill
yer Dem.) IA; Hunter (Rep.J Is; Boyle
(Rep.) 8; Davis (sound money Dem.) 6;
total Sc.
In the house the vote was as follows:
Blackburn "a; Hunter 50; Boyle s:
Davis 5; McCreary1; Buckner J;Sloane
l. Necessary to a choice 70. The result
shows that DR.. Hunter cannot win in
joint session tomorrow.

Rise of the Mustache.
TFrom the Chicago Tribune.J

TFrom the Chicago Tribune1
A young woman who has made a
study of mustaches says the wearing of
them is so universal that one would
suppose they never served a special
purpose. However, they originated
several centuries ago and had a highly
significant meaning for awhile. For
long time the Moors were in possession
of Spain, but were finally driven out
by the Christians. The MoOrs believed
in MohammedanisTn, and. having made
many converts, it was not always easy
to distinguish a Mohammedan from a
Christian There were constant con-
fiicts between both sides and the latter
decided to adopt a plan by which they
could be readily identified They let
the hair grow on the upper lip and
chin in order to produce, as near as
possible the form of a cross, and in that
way they were able to recognize each
other at all times and flock together in
periods of danger.

QUAY MEETS A PANTHER.
Pennsylvania Senator Has Adventure
While Returning From
Fishing Trip.

San Lucie, Fla, March Ex-senator
Quay left here Saturday morning for
Washington, greatly pleased with his
recitation and play, as he calls it, here.
He caught fine tarpon Friday after
a hard struggle and wound up the day
with an adventure with a wild animal.
After they had finished securing the
tarpOn the party landed one mile south
of the senator's house, and it being late
they started to walk through the low
hummock that borders the river, though
as usual thing few care to go through
it at night. The big tarpOn was car
ried on a pole by Seminole Jim, Quays
guide and attendant, and Sam Burke
They had not proceeded over 200 yards
when. as they were passing under
big live oak, an unearthly scream was
heard and a big body dropped down
upon the astonished bearers of the fish
and began taking huge mouthfuls,
growing angrily all the while. The
men were thrown down by the animal 5
weight and were too astonished at first
to know what had happened
Much panther shouted Jim, as he
saw the beasts eyes, like Goals OF fire,
glistening in the dark near him, ana
he picked up a big HghtwoOd knot and
started for it. Burke drew his big
fish knife, while the senator drew his
little pocket revolver out and began
blazing away The shots only enraSed
the beast and it turned to spring on
him Jim jumped forward and brought
his heavy club down on the amman ;
skull with a thud that almost stunned
it. 1t sprawled down. but in a moment
was up again and ready for fight,sn
ing and showing its teeth
Quay fired several shots and then Jim
again attacked it. Burke got a chance
fO give it a lab with his knife ana a
general mix-up ensued. Jim managed
to get in a good blow and knocked the
beast over, then snatching the knife
from Burke he dashed in, his Wlld sem
mole blood up, and by rare good luck
inflicted the deathblow upon the
screaming, struggling animal without
getting hurt 1t was good sized MAZE MAZE
panther, but in poor condltlon' DelnS
almost farnished. The smell of the fresh
fish is doubtless what tempted the at
tack, as this is the first time such a
thing has happened in this section, eS-
pecially with houses so near Inc niue niue
win he stuffed and taken to Beaver
FaIls to adorn Quay's library.
