LONDON, April 10 The correspond
ent OF the Times at Grovena says that
at o'clock yesterday morning 1900
Greek bandits crossed the frontier be-
tween Metsoro and Dissata, where
they encountered the Turkish troops.
The fighting lasted through the day,
with some loss of life and a number of
minor casualties.
A dispatch received at the Turkish
headquarters here from Groveua at 1
p. IN. says that the fighting between
the Greeks and Turks continues The
Turks following the instructions Of
Edhem Pasha, have surrounded the
Greek irregulars and greater part of
the Turkish division stationed at Gro
vena under Haklxi Pasha is now adj
vancing.
1t is impossible to distinguish
whether the invaders are supported by
any substantial portion of the Greek
regular army, as the Greeks have taken
mp position in the middle Of a forest.
But the correspondent is informed that
the moment the Turkish officers ascer-
tain the presence of the uniforms of
the Greek regulars in the ranks of the
aggressors Edhem Pasha will order
the advance of the entire Turkish
army The situation is most serious.

Mar, los Account Of Them Reads
Like one Of slnbad'a Tales,
In 81. Nicholas Noah Brooks iE toll
ing for the children OF to-day 1.-THE
True Story OF Marco Polo" In the
April number he quotes the following
account OF the diamonds of Golconda
from the great Venetian travellers mar
ratiye: II is In this kingdom that
diamonds are got, and / Will tell you
how. There are certain lofty noun
tains in those parts; and when the
winter rains fall. which are very heavy,
the waters came roaring down the
mountains In great torrents. When the
rains are over, and the waters from the
mountains have ceased TO flow, they
search the beds of the torrents and
find plenty Of diamonds. In summer
also there are nlentv to be found in
the mountains, but the heat OF the sun
is 80 great that 1t is scarcely possible
to go thither, nor is there h a drop
OF water to be found. Moreover, In
those mountains great serpents are rife
to a marvellous degree. besides other
vermin, and this owing to the great
heat. The serpents are also the most
venomous In existence, so that any one
going there runs fearful risk, for many
have been destroyed by these evil rep
tiles.
Now among these mountains there
are certain great and deep valleys, to
the bottom of which there is no access.
Wherefore the men who go in search
of the diamonds take with them pieces
OF flesh, as lean as they can get, and
these they cast into the bottom OF the
valley. Now there are numbers OF white
eagles that haunt those mountains and
feed upon the serpents. When the Gag
les see the meat thrown down they
pounce upon 1t, and carry 1t up to some
rocky hilltop, where they begin to
rend 1t. But there are men on the
watch, and as SOC as they see that
the eagles have settled, they raise a
loud shouting to drive them away. And
when the eagles are thus frightened
way the men recover the pieces Of
meat and find them full of diamonds
which have stuck to the meat down in
the bottom. For the abundance Of dia-
monds down there in the depths of the
valleys is astonishing. but nobody can
get down, and If one could. it would be
only to be at once devoured by the ser
penis which are so rife there.
There is also another way of getting
the diamonds. The people go to the
nests of these white eagles, of which

Mr.. w. lie c. Beard in the April
st. Nicholas tells of a tame eagle he
had as a pet in Arizona. Mr.. Beard
says:
The half-breed in whose charge he
had been left told us that he was far
better than an alarm clock for no ona
could sleep through the cries with
which he greeted the rising sun ana
his notion of breakfast time; and
while an alarm would ring for only
half a minute, Moses was wound up to
go all day, or until he got something
to eat. But his guardian treated him
kindly, and Moses grew and thriyed,
soon putting on a handsome suit of
brown and gray feathers, which he
was very proud of, and spent most of
his spare time in preening; and he
was beginning to think seriously OF
trying his wings when an accident put
off his flying for a long time. Having
known. thus far, nothing but kindness
from man, he was absolutely without
fear. and, as it turned out, rather too
much so.

| adequate for the enlarged traffic and
the increase in weight of locomotive
engines, and will be replaced by a new
bridge with two railway tracks on its
upper deck, and with wagon ways, side
walks, and trolley tracks beneath.
The lower tracks will be used for an
electric line from the United States to
Canada around the Whirlpool Gorge.
A strange feature in changing from
one bridge to the other is that 1t will
be done without interference with the
heavy traffic, though the new bridge is
being built on the exact site OF the old
one, which it surrounds, and with
which it is interlaced. The new struc-
ture gets not one ounce of support from
the old. as it extends from the cliffs
on either side out into the air in an
apparently mysterious manner, and to
the eye of the tyro defes gravity. Its
huge pieces of steel, which in some
instances exceed thirty ton in weight,
are being extended with apparently
only the atmosphere under them. When
these two sides of the arch meet in
the center of the span and are Joined,
he old bridge will be blocked up on
the new one, the new bridge carrying
t in addition to it's own weight and
he regular traffic. The latter will
hen be disconnected piece by piece,
and the new floor system placed in po-
sitioa as the work progresses. The last
work will be to remove the four cables

1900 feet. Then the towers will come
Town, and a landmark long familiar
to tourists to Niagara Falls will have
disappeared. The contract for the new
bridge was let last May. In September
100000 feet of lumber was used in con
structing preliminary work on either
side Of the river, extending from the
cliffs to the springing points of the
arch, Then, on January rs, the first
piece of riveted steel was placed in its
permanent position. The usual meth
DDS Of erecting bridges could not be
employed on account of the impossi-
Dility of constructing temporary stag
ing across the gorge, o is the OLD
bridge sufficiently strong to support
any portion Of the new bridge or of
the erection plant. The arch is, there
fore, being built out in sections from
each bank, cantilever fashion. The
bottom Of each arm rests on the
springing points, or "skewbacks" Of the
arch, the tops being anchored by
means Of heavy chains, composed OF
eye bars, $50 feet back on either bluff,
where the chains are curved around
and down eighteen feet into the solid
rock. There they are embedded in
concrete. The pull on each of these
anchorages exceeds 100000 pounds,
which is equal to the traction power
Of 100 freight engines. In order to con-
troi the weight Of the overhangink
