THE TOWNS OF CRETE.
Now Notable on Account of War
RumOrs.

HumOrs.
A writer in the ST. Petersburg We'd
omosti gives the following account of
the towns of Crete: Gambia, Retimo.
Canea, are of the Crete of the hundred
towns the only three cities existing,
and in using the word city every at
tenuation must be understood. Gambia,
situated at the mouth of little river,
the Geofiro, was built in the ninth CEN
fury by the Saracens on the site of
Heraklion, one of the ports of Cnossus.
The distance between Cnossus and Can
dia is under an hours walking, and in
antiquity the two places were connect
cd by walls, which recalled those be-
tween Piraeus and Athens. In the time
of Venetian sovereignty Gambia en-
joyed great prosperity. To-day its as
pect is essentially Turkish on account
OF its houses, its mosques, its minarets
and its bazars, in which are exposed all
the products of the east. 1t is sur
rounded by n Fashioned wall, almost
triangular in shape. Within there is
another wall separating the old town
from the new, the latter being nearer
the iINeE. ne lOTtiHcdllOnS GATE from
the Venetians, but war and earthquakes
have left little or nothing of the city's
ancient splendor. Tournefort has
called it only the carcass of a city. Its
chief monuments are the remains of
the church of ST. Francis and the old
Latin cathedral to ST. Titus Its popu-
lation is between $4,000 and $4,000,
mostly Mussullnans. The port is pro-
tected by two moles, but the sand has
been allowed to silt up so much that
only very small vessels can enter It's
chief trade is with Trieste, which takes
from it raisins and oil in return for
soap. Canea comes next to Gambia,
with population of II, 900, equally di-
vided between Christians and Moham-
medans. Canea is the ancient Cydona.
The modern town dates from 1852, and
is the principal port of the island, the
commercial capital, and the residence
of the foreign consuls. Not far from
Canea is the admirable anchorage of
Suda bay. Retimo, the third town, is
SIS miles southwest of Gambia. Its popu-
lation is not far above 3,000."-N. Y.

Late Fashion Notes.

Satin is being used for dress Access
series covered with openwork embroid-
cry or lace, as vests, boleros, collars,
etc, the sheen showing up better than a
softer silk surface.
For house and street wear cashmere
has been revived in bright and dark
tints. In Paris they are making up
bodices of wool brocade with a skirt OF
cashmere of the principal tint seen in
the brocade.
Brown, blue and green foulard fig
ured in white and lined with grass linen
makes charmingly cool shirt waists for
travelling. They are to be worn with
"a linen collar, stock or bow tie and mar
row leather belt, which can now be pro-
cured in almost any color.

Other ruffies have lace and narrow rib

Fresh and Salt Water,

a striking illustration of the different
effect of fresh and salt water on the
hulls of ships was recently afforded
by the steamers which ply on Loeb Lon
mond when undergoing their annual
overhaul. The woodwork of the yes
sells, as usual, showed signs of active
deterioration, but so well does the fresh
water of the loch preserve both iron
bulls and boilers from corrosion and
pitting that the makers name upon the
material of one of the vessels built 80
years ago was found intact and per-
fectly clean and sharp. The inside of
the boilers was also found extremely
free from the deleterious coating of
any kind. The effect of the sea water
upon iron and steel is exactly the re-
verse of this, but the saline properties
of the ocean tend to improve woodwork.

1T AGREED WITH HIM.
a Parliamentary Candidates Growth
While Speaking.

While Speaking.
Mr.. C. w. Radcliffe Cooke, a member
of the British parliament, tells of an eX-
perience that was more amusing in the
telling than in the experiencing. He
was to speak at an evening meeting in
a country town, and was first to dine
with two elderly ladies of the place. Not
until he was dressed for dinner did he
discover that his servant had neglected
TO pack his waistcoat.
There was no gentleman in the house,
hold of whom he could borrow, but the
butler, a stout man, had spare waist
coat, which, though not match for the
rest of the clothing, was near enough
to pass muster. But alas! the waist
coat was a mile too big.
He found sympathetic housemaid
who took up large pleat at the back of
the waistcoat, and fastened it securely
with pins. Dinner over, the party drove
to the Meeting, where the parliamenta-
RS candidate was to make the principal
speech. The candidate had been speak
ing ten minutes, and had warmed to his
work, when suddenly he felt pin give
way, and then another and another.
Slowly the borrowed garment ex-
banded, until its wearer appeared in all
the capacious bulk of the true owner.
Luckily the main body of the audience
did not perceive the change, but dis
tressing litter was heard among the
ladies in front. The best comment came
from a gentleman who greeted the
Snaalar. flor tho r,ao{ipn
"Public speaking evidently agrees
with you, sir" he said, in compli-
mentary tone. 'for when you sat down
you were twice the man you were when
you rose" English Illustrated Maga-

go after jerry
The speakers paused, for along the
footpath Jerry was coming rapidly to-
ward them. The great muscles of his
arms and chest knotted beneath his red
shirt as he breasted the wind. His sun
pie stride brought him quickly TO the
bank. There was CLEAN in his wild
eyes, and he laughed aloud in the pride
Of mastering the gale. The angry river
was as dear as the currents of his own
reused blood, and he longed to test the
great strength of his splendid body or
find problem for his crowdipp
thoughts. Life and spirit tinglcd with
in him.
Suddenly his glance fell upon the ex-
cited faces of the men; and then he
saw little jim. He stood among them,
speaking quietly, but with stern con-
tempt.
"Waitin' for simple Jerry?" he said
"You was"-he hesitated and did not
say "afeared." "You was common

pole, Pierre" There seemed to be
something in his shining face which
separated him from them. George Ham,

give me the pole" With the steel
pointed driver in his hand he waited
an instant, summoning all his powers
of mind and body. He looked smiling
ly at his silenced companions, easily
master of himself and them. Running
lightly forward, he drove the pole into
a fallen trunk and vaulted far out on
the ice. The men on the bank watched
breathlessly.

seconds the wreck would be upon him.

Our Oldest Regiment.

The Third regimnet of infantry in the
regular army of the United States is our
Oldest military organization. 1t began
it's history as the First regiment, estab-
lished in June, 1854. 1t was with Mad
Anthony" Wayne in his Indian cam
paigns. 1t was also prominent in the
war of 1912, and spent a decade of it's
existence in the great lake region. Then
it went to Florida during the Seminole
war, and had its place at Pala Alto, Re-
SAGA de la Palma, Monterey, Cherebusco
and Vera Cruz in the Mexican war. The
Third also fought Nayajoes and Apaches
for upward of 20 years, and during the
civil war took part in 81 battles and
sieges, losing in killed and wounded and
missing 267 men. The fighting regi-
ment paid Pennsylvania a visit during
the riots of 1s77.-Chicago Chronicle.

FOLLOWED HER INSTRUCTIONS.

Servants Obedience to Her Mas
tcr's Orders Proves Embarrassing.
Some people are SO careful about ill.,
structing their servants to beware of
confidence men that they have trouble
getting into their own houses after dark
when they have forgotten their keys.
One south side resident regrets that he
ever aroused the caution of the faithful
housemaid who runs things at his home.
He has often instructed her not to
give any coats or grips or other yalu-
able things to the willy stranger who
comes around with a glib story about
Mr.. Smith sending him up from the
office to get his overcoat. But one of
the chilly days last week he went forth
with light oyercoat on and stopped at
the corner barber shop. While waiting
his turn he decided the day was too
chilly for so light coat and, giving
ii to the colored porter, asked him to
run to the house and exchange it for his
ulster. The boy FASTENED away with
the coat and a few minutes later rang
the door bell of the residence.
''Mr. Smith is down to de bahbah
shop, ma'am, an be lows its too cold
fob dis coat, an he wants me to get his
heavy coat" he said to Hannah, the
housemaid, when she looked out sus
piciously through crack in the door.
way. She regarded him silently few
moments and recognized the garment
on his arm as that of her employer.
Give me that coat!" she demanded
suddenly, reaching for it. The boy
turned it over without word. Closing
the door to the original crack She
shouted triumphantly:
You'll get no coats here with your
confidence games, me bould bucko!"
And she slammed the door on the
porter. Five minutes later the SILVER
ing citizen, left thus with no overcoat,
hurried home with coat collar turned un
to his ears and climbed into his ulster
But he had no instructions to give the
ousemaid.-Chicago Chronicle.

pIFFsReNcE IN METHODS.


The young contractor had his choice
to secure the right of way for a railroad
In Texas or help construct a monstrous
iron bridge in Mexico. He chose the
former undertaking because II kept him
in his own country. Successful negotia-
tors are born, and he Is not one OF them.
He lacks adaptability. In the wild and
woody districts of the Lone Star state
he was like a cat In q strange garnet.
With the big ranch owners he would
have had no difficulty, for they appre-
cjated the advantages of the proposed
road. But these cattle kings were in
hopeless minority and were not in touch
with local public sentiment.
The grim old moonshiner was among
the first to call on the young pioneer.
II don't kecr to have no railroad run
MIN inter this deestrict," was his blunt
ultimatum. 81 kim in here an opened
up a still an kin sell all tn stuff kin
make. 1t sells fur good price, an I'm
not goin' ter have any competition.
I'm runnin' what yer might call n sim
gle-handed monoperly"
But your little one-horse business
can't stand in the way of a great rail-
road enterprise"
"Yes, it kin, young Teller. You can't
run no train through here so fast that
can't pick the engineer off, an with him
closed out reckon yer rollin' stock an
passengers wouldn't be much account.
| put injunction on tn road an when
a man puts himself inter contemp' with
me he's huntin' trouble"
Then came trappers who didn't want
game interfered with, cattle thieves
who didn't want to be run down with
trains and telegraphs, and the keeper
of a little frontier tavern who fondled
two guns while arguing against new
railroad.
Finally the novice received notice 10
leave and he wisely obeyed. Then
smooth little Yankee went to the scene,
talked like candidate, put money
wherever it would do the most good,
passed mountain dew around as if il
were water, and inside of three weeks
had every objector on his paid staff,
ready to shoot in defense of the railroad
project.-Detroit Free Press.

An easy way to practice walking well
is TO start out right. just before you
leave the house walk up to the wall and
see that your toes, chest and nose touch
it at once; then in that attitude walk
away. Keep your head up and your
chest out and your shoulders and back
will take care of themselves. A south
err school-tcaeher used to instruct her
girls to walk always as if trying to look
over the top of an imaginary carriage
just in front of them. II was good AL
vice, for 1t kept the head raised. Don't
think these things are of no value. They
add to your health and your attractive
ness, two things to which everybody
should pay heed.-St. Louis Republic.
