The Great Powers OF Europe ut the
Mercy of Greece.

For many years Turkey has been known
as the sick man OF Europe. Under the pro-
lection of the great powers he has pillaged
ana murdered Armenans until he has
grown strong enough to live without pro-
lection. The troubles of the powers are no
more over Turkey. but Greece is the cause
of their worry anG fright. Although only a
small country, IL has in its hands the power

ACQUITTED OF ARSON CHARGE.
Release OF CiEar-DeaIer Combs Or
dered by Judge Cox.

In Police Court yesterday William II.
Combs, the cigar dealer at 10 Virginia
avenue. was acquitted of the charge of
arson. His store caught fire a few nights
ago and Charles Hasely, living above the
store thought he heard some suspicious
sounds as if the door of the store had been
slammed and some one run away from the
place. Combs proved his whereabouts at
the time the store was on fire and account
ed satisfactorily for the kerosene.

There was some diminution Of the
crush at Governor Mounts office yester-
day, as some OF the Office seekers had gone
home TO spend Sunday. Those who have
talked with the Governor within the last
day or two express fears for his health
and say that he is showing evidences of a
heavy strain that has been upon him for
so many months. During the campaign he
worked almost night and day upon the
stump, beginning his speaking tour imme-
diately after the st. Louis convention. In
mediately after his election the rush of
Office seekers began and continued up to
the meeting of the Legislature, when he
was compelled to put a stop 10 it by de-
claring that no further consideration would
be given 10 those matters until after the
session. The session of the Legislature
gave him Il tremendous amount of work
and il was hardly over until the great press
for Office again began. He is bravely en-
deavOring TO meet and hear everybody who
desires to talk to him and to read and
answer his enormous correspondence. On
no day during the last week has he gone
home for lunch at noon, but has been salts
fled with a sandwich and a glass OF water
at his office.

SAFETY ON THE SEA.


Notwithstanding nothing has been
heard from the steamer Hecl<la since
her collisino at sea with the steamer
Mississippi several days ago, no appre-
hension for her safety is felt. She is a
modern vessel, and is supplied with
the most approved safety appliances.
Her former commander, Capt. Thorn
sen, who is in New York, said day or
two ago of her construction and prob
able damage, that he had no doubt
she would make the voyage to Chris
tiana in good time and perfect safety.
She has four water-tight collision
bulkheads forward, and to judge from
the wound on the Mississippi made by
the l1eckla'S bow, he is sure not more
than two of the bulkheads could have
been injured. He thinks the comman-
der of the Heckla erected false stem,
stretched three or four layers of stout
canvas around it, braced with heavy
timbers the uninjured bulkheads, and
filled the four feet of space between
them with cement as an extra safety
measure. In this condition, Capt.
Thomson says, the Heckla would be
perfectly seaworthy, and as well pre-
pared to stand the voyage as when she
sailed out from Sandy Hook.
1t is gratifying to observe the pro-
gress that has been made in the d1rec-
ton of safety at sea. While marine
architects on both sides of the ocean
have striven to produce craft of great
speed, they have not for moment
lost sight of the fact that the modern
vessel must be something more than
swift transport; she must conserve
the safety of passengers and crew, as
well as bear them over the waters
quickly. Hence, while the builders
have gone on drawing the lines of
their vessels more finely, they have
also been erecting bulkheads and wa
ter tight compartments between
decks, and packing the sides of the
craft with cellulose, until at present
the modern craft is well nigh unsink-
able. A blow which would have sent
to the bottom the stoutest ship of for
ty years ago, if indeed, it had not cut
her in two, now hardly more than
momentarily inconvenience the mod
ern craft. Perfect safety at sea, of
course, has not yet been achieved, and
it probably never will be. Neverthe-
less great strides in that direction
have been made Savannah News.

In the lecture before the Public Ed

allure is a stream into which has flow

putting them into this fertilizing
stream. Good literature is as neces-

air to the growth of the body, and it
is just as bad to put weak thought
into a child's mind as to shut it up in
an unventilated room. It's soul is a

DR.. Walter Nyman, surgeon-general
of the United States Marine Hospital
Service, advocates the annexation of
Cuba as sanitary measure necessary
to the welfare Of this country, because
it is the worst plague spot upon the
map and the source of nearly all our
epidemics. From the beginning of
the century until now there have been
only nine years in which this country
has been free from yellow fever. 1t
has been proved that in twenty three
of the eighty-fve years the disease
came from Havana direct, and in
twelve cases from elsewhere in Cuba.
The source of it's infection in many
other years is believed to have been
the same, but there is no positive evil
dence. Since 1862 there have been
twenty-six invasions of yellow fever.
The source of nineteen are absolutely
known-sixteen from Havana, two
from elsewhere in Cuba and one from
Honduras. Since 1898 there has been
no yellow fever in the United States,
which, the Chicago Record declares, is
due to the extraordinary precautions
taken by DR.. Burgess, the United
States inspector at Havana, who will
