MEDNEsDAY NIGHT Of last

"WEDNESDAY NIGHT Of last
w week Marshal Rutherford's
deputies surrounded a gambling tent
at Hayden run by couple Of gamblers
from this city and captured thirty
three negroes, a number getting away
by cutting holes in the tent at which
they climbed out and escaped in the
darkness. An amusing feature OF the
capture was that some OF the boys in
order to have fun had, like the story
Of the boy and the wolf, repeatedly
given the alarm that the marshals
were coming and caused a stampede
and the putting out OF the lights,
when In fact no officers were near un-
I'll the gaming went on undesturbed
by their warning Till the mar
shals did come and bag the outfit.

the other, began the war. But that the
contest is on see,as to be admitted ON all
hands. There can be but little doubt as
to the result of war between Greece
ana TURKEY, if it is confined strictly to
these TWO Datlcns. The Turkish army is
fer superior to the Grecian both in
mum bers and diseipliner and not the in
ferior certainly in bravery Indeed there
Ii probably no army in Europe that Will
light with more bravery ana determine
ton than that of Turkey. Its bravery
grows out Of its fanaticism, to be sure.
but the fact that it is allied to madness
makes it all the more serious to cope
with. In the last war between Russia
and Turkey the Turkish regulars always
gare good account of themselves and
were quite the equal if not the superior
OF the Cars force in fighting qualities.
On the sea Greece will have the adyan-
tage, for Turkish navy hardly exists
except in tie Imagination, their ships
being poor and badly manned. But the
decisive fighting will te upon the land
and here the Turks are superior not
withstanding the enthusiasm of the
Greeks. The hope of the Greeks is TN
doubtly that some CT the Sultan's out
lying provinces, like Macedonia, will take
advantage of the conflict TO rebel against
the Porte's authority and that thus indi-
rectly they will get important assistance.
Ii that expectation should not be realized
and the Powers preserve strict neutrali-
sy there can hardly be doubt but that
Turkey will win in the struggle on ac
count OF their superior numbers and SUI
prior resources. 1t is not ut all pro-
bable, however, that the Turks if they
win, win be allowed to annex any terri
tory or to impose very onerous conditions
on Greece. While for various reasons of
their own, The principal one being no
doubt that they fear desperate quarrel
over the spoils, the Powers are anxious
to preserve the Turkish empire as it now
exists, they wouidnot be willing to see it
extended, not even to punish nation that
had defied them as Greece has done, and
gone to war against their warnings. If
the conflict can be confined strictly to
Gresce and Turkey it will probably not
be long or very disastrous in it's ulti-
mate effects. But if it spreads to the
Balkan states, if the Turkish suzeranities
take advantage of it to emancipate them
selves from Turkish rule nobody can pre-
dict when it will end, or how large a
part of Europe it may involve. The
| Greeks and Turks may have ignjted a
fire on the Thessalian border that will
spread all over Europe before it is extin-
guished.

Mr.. Chamberlain the British secretary
for tbs colonies, seems to be hunting af-
ter an excuse for making war upon
Presid ent Kruger and the Beer republic
and it is by no means certain that he has
not found one good enough in Kruger
recent order clipping the wings of the
supreme court of the Transvaal. There
are ominous signs too that the British
public would like to see an Invasion of
the Transvaal by British troops in suffic-
lent force to avenge the Jameson disaster.
Or course Sir Cecil Rhodes. who has re-
Gently acknowledged that he was really
responsible for the Jameson raid and
whose only regret was that it did not
succeed, now that he has come
Dut of the Investigation by a
parliamentary committee with flying
colors, will not be reluctant to find a
new chance for quarrelling with Kruger,
and If there is not pretext enough al
ready for invading the Transvaal he
may be relied upon to furnish one, now
that he has gone back to Sonth Africa.
The danger of q general war in Eurcpe
may possibly postpone British aggression
in South Africa but if that is averted
one may look In the near future for more
English land grabbing in the dark
continent.

The Somersworth bank robbery ought
to serve as warning to the cashiers of
small banks in villages and sparsly set
tied communities. These are the banks
which are the really exposed Ones Bank
robberies in the large cities long ago be-
came practically impossible, because of
the many safeguards placed around
them, and the professional thief no long
er attempts them. But false sense of
safety prevails In the country on account
of the quiet Of the nsighborhood and the
freedom from people Of bad repute, and
precautions regarded az indispensable
in the cities are hardly thought of there.
The professional bank robber knows
this however and turns it to his advan-
tage. We have little doubt that there
are a good many banks in this state
which are often left with as little protec-
ton as the omersworth bank had.
Many of them are in second stories of
buildings where they are screened from
view from the outside. If possible there
should always be more than one person
in the bank, but if one person must be
left he should be provided with ade-
quate means of defence. A revolver
would have saved Mr.. Stickneyss life.
