NEw AND CoNKINcING,

The attention of those who are look ing for new and convincing arguments for consolidation is invited to the gor- geous street sprinkling advertisement. It would be a fine thing to have more people to tax for such expenditures, and the fresh victims would enjoy their ex- perience.

THE W4R NEVIS.

That is a curious war between the Greeks and the Turks The Turks don't seem to want to hurt the Greeks too much, and the Greeks don't seem to resumption of the fighting and more talk about intervention and the status ister for Foreign Affairs, and Count Goluchowski, the Austrian Minister for Foreign Affairs, have sent Identical notes to the Russian and Austrian representatives at Belgrade, Servia; Sofia, Bulgaria; Bucharest, Rumania, and Cettinje, Montenegro, expressing satisfaction at the correct attitude which the governments of those coun- tries present during the present crisis, adding that this attitude harmonizes all the more with the wishes of the two sovereigns, the Czar and Emperor Francis Joseph, as they are firmly de- termined to uphold universal peace and the principle of the status quo.
 And so forth and so on. Meanwhile public opinion in this country is in doubt whether to continue warmly sympathizing with the Greeks or to blame them for not being willing or knowing how to die bravely enough to impress those who are not called upon to die.

FASHION NOTES.
New silks at the Theater.


 Silk lined skirts and rustling move ments are still the right thing, The noisy sort of perkaline is inadmissable If you cannot have the silk then line with light weight flannel or flannel lette and pretend that you think the rustic of silk Is inelegant. That cer tainly isn't half so bad as wearing silk lining when you cannot afford it. Now that the theaters are having good pat ronage after the Lenten dullness, not a few gowns that are silk on the outside have had their first showings. It is a particularly dressy theater gown that the artist displays here, and it was sketched in mauve taffeta. Its slightly trained skirt had narrow panel of ap- pliqued pink velvet in the center of its front breadth, and band of the same trimming appeared on the low

His first wife bore him twenty-one children and his second has so far given birth to four teen, making a total of thirty-five, Eassonowitz expresses the wish that he might be the father of forty children, when he would ask the government for a medal and a pension.

French universities were partly de- centralized and made more independent of the state last summer. One imme- diate result has been that donations and bequests by private individuals have begun to flow in. Gifts have al- ready been made to the universities at Laon, Bordeaux, Nancy, Montpelier, and Paris. Nancy has received 100000 francs for research in physics and chemistry.

Oregon has found that a severe cold snap that came upon the Willamette Valley last November, before the sap had returned to the roots of the trees, damaged great numbers of the trees in a curious way, freezing them on one side only. On that side now the bark Is black and dead. Many trees were killed. In Washington county 100000 prune trees were killed by the same frost.

The Torrens land title law passed in Illinois a year or two ago has been amended by the legislature to suit the objections of the supreme court. In- stead of vesting the power of passing upon titles in the registrar of deeds, the new act hands over the proceedings to a court in chancery. This will make the first cost of registration larger, but the time in which titles are open to dis pute is reduced from five years to two. Thus after acceptance of title by the court, it becomes guaranteed by the state after two years The revised sys- tenn will be submitted to the Chicago voters at the judiciary elections in June, and the opinion is that it will be adopted as strongly as the old law was.

The strict regulations for bicyclists hitherto enforced in Austria have re- gently been greatly relaxed by an order of Count Kielmansegg, the official hav- ing this matter in charge The re- quirements of an examination by the police of all bicyclists have been dis pensed with, and henceforth riders can decide for themselves whether they are sufficiently skilful to ride in the public streets or not With this has also been abolished the annual license fee of five horins (about $2). Bicyclists also re- ceive much greater liberty as to the streets and roads they may travel on and the speed they may adopt is more definitely fixed. In respect to the rules of the road bicycles are put on the same footing as light vehicles of all sorts. The Vienna Cycling Association is preparing great demonstration in honor of Count Kielmansegg to express the thanks of the wheelmen. He is a member of one of the local clubs.

Wonderful things grow in Arizona, according to Delegate Marcus Smith, who was telling a group of politicians the other day of the wonderful results of irrigation in Arizona. The glorious climate of California, according to him, was nothing as compared with Arizona irrigation. He told of sweet potatoes as big as beer kegs; of watermelons which made the Georgia product taste like pumpkin; of grapes so luscious and fragrant that 1t was enough to imbibe the atmosphere around them. He told of these and of other wonders without making an impression. Finally he hit an illustration which satisfied the group of politicians that Arizona irrigation was all he claimed for it. Why" said he, "Tll tell you what we can do down there. We can irrigate an acre of ground, plant plum tree this spring, and next fall 1t will bear a plum for every fellow that wants an office.''

Trades League. was very hopeful Of its
future prospects. and after fully explain
ing the origin Of the withdrawal Of the
Ocean Line, said:
1T is claimed by the management Of
the ocean Steamship company that
there Is not sufficient business to war
rant Its continuing this line. but ii would
seem strange that Philadelphia, with q
population Of over 400, 900 people and a
territory OF not half the population Of
PENNSYLVANIA, can support two boats per
week.
There Is no question but what a direct
line from Philadelphia 10 Savannah
could be supported, if the merchants OF
Philadelphia would patronzc it, ana the
railroad companies would carry the
freight tributary to Philadelphia
through Philadelphia rather than
through Baltimore.
I'VE do not believe that the port of
Philadelphia will submit to its traffic be-
ing withdrawn through either New York
or Baltimore. and there is Il movement
now on foot to secure an independent
line from Philadelphia. All of the COM
mercial organizations of Philadelphia
will no doubt take action on the Ocean
Steamship company's withdrawal Of it's
service"

pushing this new movement is: Chair
