The man who eats because he is hun
CRY is, thus far, on level with the
brutes. The man who stops eating the
moment his hunger is appeased is the
wise man. Nature needs no more food
than she calls for. Continued excess
brings about Indigestion or dyspepsia,
with loss of flesh, strength, sleep, am
bition and mental power, and an ac-
emulation of aches, pains and many
dangerous local maladies. The stomach
now can do nothing alone. We must
appeal to artificially digested food
which can also digest other foods. That
is to say, we must use the Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial. The effect is prompt
and cheering. The chronic pain and
distress ceases. Appetite presently re-

CROSS VS.. CRESCENT.
A Day of Importance Celebrated
Quietly.

Athens, April 6.-The seventy-sixth
anniversary of the raising of the
standard of the cross against the
/ crescent on April s, 1921, beginning the
war against the Turks, which resulted
/ in the independence of Greece, was
! celebrated throughout the kingdom to-
! day with great enthusiasm. All bust
ness was suspended and popular par
/ ticipation in the national fete was gen
/ eral.
In the forenoon the king and queen.
the ministers and the foreign diplo-
mats attended religious services in the
cathedral, where a te deum was sung,
and the remainder of the day was de-
voted to holiday making of every de-
scripticn. AS the king drove to and
from the cathedral he was constantly
cheered by the great crowds of people
lining the streets, and posters of pa
pers bearing the inscription .Hurrah
for War;" were thrown into his car
riage.
Despite the warlike temper of the
people there were no disturbances.
a feature of the decorations in honor
of the day was the entire absence of all
foreign flags except those which were
flying from the various legations.
While the roval procession was en-
route to the cathedral. the carriage of
Crown Princess Sophia was overturned.
The incident reated the most intense
excitement and il was feared that
Princess Sophia would be killed. A
hundred persons rushed forward and
righted the carriage when, much TO the
relief of everybody, it WAS found that
The crown princess had escaped uphurt.
She entered the carriage of King
George and continued on her way to
the cathedral.
A great meeting was held this after
protesting against the action of the
powers in their efforts to crush the
rigntful aspirations of the hellenic
people and endorsing the government
for the firm stand taken and main
tanned in the defense of Greek ri-hts.
The meeting appointed a deputation
to convey the resolution to the king.
Several thousand persons accompa-
MED the deDutation to the palace, !
shouting. "Zeto Ho Polomos.'' The !
crowd invaded the vestibule of the pal
ace and the troops on duty there mad |
great difficulty in preventing them !
from entering further.
Large crowds continued in the square |
in front of the palace throughout the !
day. They repeatedly called for the
king, but his majesty did not appear.
Passing alarm was caused this after
noon by the discharge of pistols among
the tIONQS. II was dl liNt luOu6it
that en- outbreak was about to occur.
The troops were Immediately reinforced
and further and more stringent pre-
cautions were taken to prevent disor-
ders. 1t was subsequently learned that
the alarm was caused by enthusiastic
spirits who were discharging a feu de
joie. Nothing more serious occurred
during the dav than a few scuff1es
which were easily stopped by the po-
ice

New York. April 6.-The Suns Ha-
vana dispatch says: Desertions are
still verv numerous in the Spanish
army. At Matanzas a company of AZ
men has passed over to the insurgents
on account of the scanty and poor food
supply and the non-Dayment of the
money due them. The authorities are
careful to prevent this news from being
printed here. for fear that it NAV in
fluence the rest of the army to follow
the same course.
In Santa Clara province the deser-
lions are still more numerous. BY or
ders from Madrid, Weyler is trying
again to induce the insurgents to &C
cept the alleged reforms, and has en-
ployed for that purpose Senior Marcos
Garcia, ex-mayor of the town of Sancti
Spiritus. Senior Garcia, notwithstand-
ing the ill-success of his former pro-
posals, indirectly made to Gomez by
the correspondent of FL Liberal. has
again accepted the mission, and has
written to the Cubans in a pleading
way. asking their acceptance of the re-
forms.
Weyler suggests to the insurgents
that after the present plan of reforms
had been practically tried in the island.
Spain will grant to Cuba more liberal
home rule. He holds out the prospect,
also. of a general amnesty, including
the pardon of all Cubans who are in
the revolutionary ranks, and all who
are under charges before the Spanish
tribunals for common offenses. He
adds that in the treaty of capitulation
the insurgents will receive all the mill
tary honors of a belligerent army.
1t is positively known that. notwith-
standing all the semi-official Spanish
news to the contrary. General Gomez
has sternIy rejected all these proposals
and warned Senior Garcia that il he
ever falls into his hands he will be
hanged as a traitor.
The same attitude is assumed by the
Cuban government at Camaguey. A
committee was dismissed by President
cisneros with the answer that, though
he Cubans do not like to ill-treat Of
icial Populations. they will be obliged
% arrest and try before a drum head
court martial all who may in future
inter the Cuban camp with proposals
or peace not based upon the absolute
OF the island.

Senator Morgan's (Dem. Ala.), reso-
luton recognizing a state of war in

up and discussed until 2 o'clock, when
il was placed on the calendar, with the
notification that Mr.. Morgan would
move to take il up tomorrow, and that
the vote on that motion would be re-
garded as a test vote. In the course of
his speech, Mr.. Morgan intimated that
the senator from Maine (Mr. Hale),
who was challenging some of his as
ton with representatives of the Span
from them.
Mr.. Hale denied the charge and said
that he got his information about af-
fairs in Cuba from Americans who had
been there-Americans by name, by
descent and by residence.
The remainder of the days session
was given to debate on the bankruptcy
bill.
Mr.. Stewart. Pop. New occupied the
floor for three hours and a half in op-
position to the principle of involuntary

tion of bimetallism. on which he and

Aiming of the Moslems.

London, April 6.-The Daily News
will tomorrow publish a dispatch from
Canea, stating that the inquiry into the
arming of Moslem refugees which led
to the encounter with the insurgents on
the peninsula Saturday has ELECTED the
fact that 5S1 rifles were served out to
the Bashi BaZouks. OF this number,
$40 have been recovered. The disarm-
ing of the Bashi Bazouks continues.
One hundred and twenty-six rifles that
were brought from Kandamos are miss
ing.
The insurgents at Akrotiri have sent
to the admirals a protest against their
not having fired upon the Bashi Ba-
zouks. Tney compare Entertainment
accorded to the Moslems with that ac-
corded to themselves by the admirals.
The admirals, replying to the protest,
have said that they did not fire upon
the Mussulmans because of the
presence among them of European Of
ficers.
The admirals mediate issuing a new
proclamation announcing that the
blockade of the island will only con-
tinue so long as the Greek troops under
the command of General Vassos re-
main in Crete.

London, April 6.-Although there
have been no important changes in the
attitude of Greece or Turkey or the
powers generally, the impression pre-
walls throughout Europe that the sit
uation has distinctly improved during
the past "a hours. The Greek indie
pendence day. which it was feared the
National society would celebrate with
hostilities on the frontiers of Thessaly,
which would have precipitated war
with Turkey, has passed almost un-
eventually.
The populace at Athens and other
points in Greece. according to dis
patches received here, INDUCED in war
like demonstrations. but that has be-
come a daily commonplace.
1t is now generally believed even in
st. Petersburg that Greece is by no
means determined upon war This ac-
counts in part for the less severe at
titude that the powers have at the last
moment assumed toward King George.
There is no longer any doubt that
France is supporting Lord Salisbury,
the British prime minister. in favor of
milder policy, and Russia therefore
is unable to insist upon severe meas
ures against Greece. 1t is too early yet
to say whether the powers will now
compel the immediate withdrawal of
the Turkish troops from Crete in order
to conciliate Greek public opinion, but
some such move seems more possible
now than at any stage of the crisis.
The Situation on the frontier, of
course, continues critical, but it is felt
that the greater danger has been
avoided by today's escape from an out
break.
