Elassona, April 20. - The Turkish
forces continue to hold the Milouna
rass, though it is reported that the
Greeks are advancing or making
ready to advance to reoccupy the po-
sitions from which they were dis
lodged on Sunday. The two block
houses have been strongly fortified and
it would take a powerful body of Greek
troops to recapture them. Edhem
Pasha has entrenched himself on all
the heights from Papalyvada to
Meckche, and strong bodies of troops
are stationed in the defles between
these two points. The inhabitants of
Elassona have left the town en- masse
and are pushing northward, many 60
ing on to Salonica. Evidently they
fear that the Greeks will defeat the
Turks and actually reach this place,

The town has been overrun with
crippled fakirs the past week, who
are making begging tour of the

ure about these boys. They all
claim to come either from Waco or

In looking over the audience at

we were impressed with the neces-
sity for a crusade against the the
atre hat in Sinner. Great big
Gainsborough hats doomed up all
over the floor with two or three I'M
fortunate individuals lodging
around behind each trying to catch
a glimpse of what was going on, on
the stage. OF course the ladies,
God bless them, never thought that
they were obstructing anybody's
view. but such was the case most
surely. A great many came with
out hats and wore fascinators It'll
they reached the hall, when they
were removed, and this is what ali

beauty is in her hair, and she ney-

little money to help him on his
way. He wants to get to Corpus
Christi where he has an aunt living.
He came from Waco. He tells his
sad tale to everybody and leaves
town with from five to ten dollars.
The next day a boy gets off of the
north-bound train with his arm in
sling, his head tied up, and u
very bad limp. You don't need to
ask him where he is from. You
know his story before he strikes
you for dime. He is another Cor
pus Christi boy and has an aunt at
Waco. And so it goes all week.
They are careful not to run ip on

FORM THE CONTEST HAS TAKEN.
Now. let US see the form that this contest
has taken There are four tickets in the field.
Two of them. the ticket headed by General
Tracy and the ticket headed by Henry George.
openly proclaim the doctrine that in the solu-
ton of this tremendous municipal problem that
confronts the city of New-York. National issues
and not the local issues ought to dominate in
the mind OF the voters. General Tracy, or the
platform on which he stands says that the gem
era issue is Organism. with a free coinage OF
silver at IL to !. and all that that implies.
Henry George. in the main, agrees with him as
to the issue AMI brings into the canvass the
Chicago platform OF the Democratic party; only
General Tracy is against Organism. and Henry
George is for 1t. Both OF these gentlemen pro-
pose certain things for the city, Of course.
Even IL partisan OF the stricteSt sect would
hardly undertake to say In purely municipal
election like this hat the city SIS not In IT at
all" Nevertheless. they do say. both OF them.
that the city's interests are not the paramount
issue. and that the voter ought to cast his bal
lot primarily with reference to National issues.

wishes to do so: but. n he does do 1t. he must
