PILGRIMS DAY.

Yesterday was the anniversary
of the landing from the Mayhower
of the Al Pilgrims with their wives
on Plymouth rock. \ few days
before, they had on the deck of the
vessel signed that brief, but rare
and complete instrument which
John Adams said was the first writ
ten agreement for the formation of
a nation. that had ever been made
1t was effectual only because it ex-
pressed the habit and thought of
their lives. 1t created no new
theory of government, but evolved
one that lay dormant in their
heredity.
''The Church without a Bishop.
A State without a King ex-
isted in their minds without form.
Standing on Plymouth rock, they
struck their being into bounds.
Of late their descendants cele-
brate the anniversary of the event
in feasting and speech. Last even
ing the eloquence of men of New
England origin filled the air over
the American continent. 1t is an
evening of striking contrasts. The
descendants sit in large banquet
halls, under brilliant lights, before
feasts that would appall, in their
gastronomic invention and rich
ness, the simple forefathers, if they
could rise from the dead.
The descendants admire the
virtues of these heroes, ex.
alt their frugality, and then
treat their memories in rare
wines, and in the midst of costly
smoke. If the heroes were present
their economic souls would be III
distress at the reckless eXtravag-
ance, but they would smile on
the assembly of patriotic revel
lers with diseased livers, i'm
perfect kidneys, and unstrune
nerves. On Pilgrims day, the
forensic eloquence of the DIES
pendants is at its best, in descrlb-
ing the incompatible worth Of the
ancestralexample But when the I'M
speakable hardships of the ances-
tors are depicted, the descendants
become PROSTATE with sympathetic
grief, and drown their sorrows III a
sea of foaming champagne. At the
same time they are filled with graf
itude to the worthy heroes who fur
nished the occasion that will enable
the descendants for Centuries to
come" to gather together and cele-
brate it,, according to the best
'lights'aoin gastronomy and blbu-
lation. Wonderful Pilgrims. Still
more wonderful descendants.

TIMELY TOPICS

ALAUGHlNG CAMERA!
Did you ever hear of
such a thing ? Or, better
still, have you seen one?
The idea is enough to make
one smile, but a glance
through the camera itself
will make the holder scream
with laughter. Every object
is caricatured and made to
appear utterly ridiculous.
There is more real fun to be
secured through the posses
sion of one of these Cameras
than in a whole heap of
comic picture books. Get
one and see for yourself.
The price is only 75c.
A GOOD THING to have
about your house is a TEA
BALL. This is a decided
novelty; dry tea is enclosed
in a pretty, solid silver, or
silver-plated perforated ball
attached to a very fine chain.
All you have to do when you
want a cup of tea is to steep
this ball in a cup of boiling
water and allow it to remain
for a few minutes and the
result is a beautiful cup of tea
free from leaves. This makes
a really handsome as we'll as
a useful Xmas present.
From the very heavy list
of Xmas presents, we may
mention a beautiful Solid

The Cretan Crisis Causes Grave
Anxiety
SALIsBURY'S SUGGESTIONS
Are Not Yet Formally Endorsed by the
Powers
II Greece Reslsts War Will foliow-Peacs 70
Desired but the Nations Prepare
for War
Associated Press Special Wire

Associated HreSS Speclal Wlro
LONDON, Feb 81 Copyright 1872
The next move in the Cretan game 10
anxiously awaited. According TO the
news from the continent the marquis
of Salisbury's proposal for a settlement
of the difficulties is not yet formally en-
dorsed by the powers, but it Is believed
1t will be approved or the premier would
not have made the public announcement
on the subject which he did in the house
OF lords on Thursday last.
Active means are still proceeding be-
tween the different European cabinets.
The marquis of Salisbury presided to-
day at special meeting of the cabiner
at the foreign office. Whether the solu-
ton of the imbroglio is peaceful or not
depends entirely upon Greece and the
dispatches from Athens indicate thai. the
feeling in favor Of resistance to the
powers is still strong among all classes
throughout Greece and that declara-
tion of war with Turkey would be re-
ceived with great enthusiasm.
The latest Greek proposal Is said to
be that Greece should administer Crete
as Austria administers Bosnia. But 1t
seems to be agreed on all sides that
peace can only be maintained by leaying
Crete part ofthe Turkish empire.
The marquis of Salisbury's proposals
have been received with favor, not only
by the British but by most OF the con-
tiEeEtal newspapers.
In the meantime, however, military
preparations are proceeding apace In
Turkey and Greece, while everything Is
prepared in South Russia for the trans
port of big Russian army to the Bal
kans whenever this step may be deemed
necessary.
Telegrams from Vienna also declare
that Emperor Francis Joseph has had
repeated conferences with the Austrian
minister of war, that plans for the mobi-
liZation of Austrian ferces on the Bal
kan frontier have been drawn up and
that horses are already being purchased
for military uses.
According to advlces from the small
Balkan states war preparations are pro-
ceeding there secretly, and in short all
the parties concerned are quite pre-
pared for an explosion at any moment.
The house of commons yesterday
adopted supplementary naval esti-
mate of E500.000, bringing the total ex-
pense of the navy during the present
year to $22,330,0 This enormous fig
ure is nearly double the cost of the
navy fifteen years ago.
Much atters fon MAS been attracted
by the Russo-Japanese treaty. published
in the Official Messenger this week. 1t
gives both Russia and Japan the right
to station a military force in Corea, to
protect their settlement; the two parties
agree to lend joint financial aid to Co
rea in course of necessity. and Russia
reserves the right to construct tele-
graph line from Seoul to the frontier.
1t is added that Corea retains full
liberty In home and foreign affairs Both
Russia and japan support the king. per-
manently assuring order. The British
newspapers comment on the treaty and
declare 1t virtually consecrates the SUBJ
| stitution of Russia for China as the
| dominant power at Seoul.
