most profitable of the series. So
large was the audience that it
was found necessary to throw
open the folding doors of the lee
ture room which was also nearly
filled. Mr.. Carpenter preached a
soul searching sermon from the
text: ''Thou art not far from the
Kingdom of Heaven. He
showed in strong and clear lam
guage that we might be like this
young man and yet be lost. Many
went forward, others asked fOI
prayers and several happy con.

A CowaIdly Insult.

Capt. f. D. Pooser. our popu-
lar tax collector, had a lively ad-
venture this morning about IL
O'Clock, which come about in this
wise: A travelling commission
man whose name was since
learned to be III. L. Kammarie of
Allegheny, Pa, met Mr.. Pooser
out at his and Alex Moorhead's s
farm yesterday afternoon, where
he stopped on his way home from
a drive to Sam Pyles' residence,
which was the first time he had
been out of his room in ten
days. The stranger made an Of
fer for a car load of potatoes
which Mr.. Pooser accepted, but
after returning home and con-
sidering the matter, he decided
that the offer was not large
enough, and with the fact that
the man was unknown and had
put up no guarantee, determined
to decline trading with him. He
notified the man accordingly,
who in company with Mr.. Moor
head, the captains partner in
the crop, came to the residence
and into Mr.. Pooser's sick room
where he was again in bed, very
sick and weak. Here Mr.. KAN
marie objected to the decision of
Mr.. Pooser and told him of his
expense in the way of wires, etc. !,
which the captain told him he
would bear, but not satisfied he
began to hurl imprecations at the
bad-ridden man, telling him that
he would advertise him in every
paper in the town and county,
and to every commission mer-
chant in the country. This was
too much for one in the captains
weak and nervous condition and,
jumping out of bed, he collared
his insulter and would have
fogged him well but was pre-
vented by Mr.. Moorhead. This
enraged him and going to a
dresser he took out his revolver
and snapped at the man as he
ran and as he passed the window
the enraged captain fired at his
deeting form.
When seen by a Star reporter
Capt. Pooser said he regretted
exceedingly that his sick, weak
and excited condition caused him
to so far lose control of himself,
but that the insult was more
than he could bear.
He is very much prostrated
over the occurrence which will
certainly retard his recovery.

WAR IS RAGING.
BLOODY BATTLES BETWEEN THE
TURKS AND GREEKS-MILOUNA
PASS TAKEN BY THE
TURKS-GREEKS VIC
TORIOUS AT
ARTA.
From the Metropolis.

From the Metropolis.
London, April 21.-A dispatch
received by the Turkish legation
to-day announced that the village
of Kreechora, in Grecian territory
has been occupied by the Turks.
The division commanded by Ne
chat Pasha, who is operating
against Tyrnavo and Larissa,
has carried all positions, COM
manding Larissa, Kreechora and
Badji, after desperate fighting.
The Turks captured many pris-
oners and quantities of arms and
ammunition. The Greeks were
also defeated in Milouna Pass and
fled in a westerly direction to-
wards Larissa.
GALLANT BAYONET CHARGING.
Arta, Greece, April 21.-The
ninth regiment of the Greek army
advanced this morning across
the Aractos river, the boundary
line, and attacked q line of small
Turkish forts in the forest, and
carried three by gallant bayonet
charges. The village of Mechoris
was strongly defended by Alban-
ians. Forty-five held one house
and when it was stormed by the
Greeks refused to surrender. All
but one died fighting valiantly.
At Arta tomorrow the Greek ar
tillery will advance and attack
the villages on the plain. The
plan is to turn the Turkish wing
and open the road to Janina. The
Turks, protected by cannon on
the hills, attempted to cross the
bridge into Arta, but the splen-
did work of the Greek sharpshoot-
ers prevented this, and the Turks
were forced to charge across an
open space where they were ex-
posed to a murderouS fire.
