teller, the First National bank OF this
city is 8 loser to the extent OF So, 600.
A few days since a Tennessee river
logger presented an order given by
Snodgrass & Field for $400, At the
bank. Charles knoedler, the teller,
opened his cash drawer and tossed out
eight bundles of bank notes, each con-
tanning 10 $50 dollar bills. The RATS
man soon disappeared. The mistake
was not discovered until notice OF the

ATHENS. March 9.-The reply Of
the Greek government to the ultima
tum Of the powers having been deliv-
cred to the foreign representatives
here, preparations for hostilities be-
tween Greece and Turkey, which are
apparently inevitable, are being hur-
ried forward with all possible speed.
Crown Prince Constantine IS about to
start for the Turkish frontier to as
sumo command Of the Greek troops
there, and several Greek transports
have landed great quantities of war
material and large numbers OF horses
and mules at Volo, Thessaly. It is
reported that Greek bands have de-
stroyed number of bridges on the
railway between Monastir, the politi-
cal headquarters of the Turkish army,
and Salonica. Nea Ephemeris, the
ministerial organ, says that orders
have been sent to Admiral Sachtouri,
the commander Of the Greek warships
at Canea, to retain his position and
not notice any directions that may be
given 10 him By the foreign admirals,
even if force is threatened to compel
obedience to their directions. 1t is
also stated that Prince George on
board the schoolship kanaris, went to
Platnia and instructed Colonel Vas
SOS, the commander of the Greek ar
my of occupation, to avoid conflict
with the powers and to withdraw into
the interior Of the island. The Greek
squadron is blcckading number of
Turkish vessels in the Ambraclan
gulf. Three hundred monks at Mount
Athos have offered their services as
soldiers in the event of war. These
were expected to arrive at the pareus
today.

Government Extravaganza.

The Atlanta Journal says President
Mckinley is guilty of inconsistency
when he pleads in one breath for an in
crease of the governments revenue
and in the next urges the necessity OF
strict economy. The income Of the
government is now ample to meet all
necessary and proper expenditures.
We want more economy, not more
revenue. The governments income
for the fiscal year ended June 80,
1896, was 1926, 976,2OO. This sum was
more than sufficient to meet the ex'
penditures ofthe government for every
year except two since 1880. But Tor
the recklessness OF the late billion dollar
congress it would have been ample for
all the expenses OF the last fiscal year.
It may be said that the country's 8
growth demands an increase OF expen-
ditures. So it does, but the increase
OF expenses has been out of all proper
ton to the increase Of population, as
the following table will show:

We have not only added immense

penditures, but the per capita expense
of the government has been outrage
ously increased. In 1900 it was 81, 80

was $l.36; in 1850, Sl,01; in 1910,

 We are away out west, on the rag ged edge of the frontier, so to speak, but we are not wild and woolly. We are not ignorant nor illiterate.

REICHSRATH IN AN UPROAR.

Vienna, Nov. 3.-The session of the reichsrath which began last evening is still on and is likely to last until an agreement is arrived at, and this the opposition are endeavoring by all possible means to put off as long as they can.
 Herr Lecher, who began a speech early in the evening, continued to talk until g o'clock this morning in spite of the continuous uproar of his op- ponents, which most of the time drowned his voice.
 Herr Wolff, who spent most of his time in trying to put a motion declar- ing the session closed, resorted to every conceivable means to prevent Herr Lecher from continuing his speech, but was unsuccessful.
 From midnight until 2 o'clock in the morning he kept up a terrible din, aided by his followers, but was oblig- ed to desist from exhaustion, while Lecher kept on speaking at the top of his voice.

Give all to love; Obey the heart; Friends, kindred, days, Estate, good fame. Plans, credit and the Muse, Nothing refuse. 'Tis a brave master, Let it have scope; Follow it utterly. Hope beyond hope; High and more high IL dives into noon, With wing unspent, Untold intent; But it is a god, Knows it's own path And the outlets of the sky. It was never for the mean; It requireth courage stout; Souls above doubt, Valor unbending, It will reward They shall return More than they were, And ever ascending Leave all for love; Yet, hear me, yet, One more word thy heart behoved, One pulse more of firm endeavor.-- Keep thee today. Tomorrow, forever, Free as an Arab, Of thy beloved. Cling with life to the maid; But when the surprise, First vague shadow Of surmise Fits across her bosom young, Of a joy apart from thee, Free be she, fancy free; Nor thou detain her vesture's hem. Nor the palest rose she flung From her summer diadem. nfincugh thou love her as myself,
 nSelf of purer clay,

AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE.

The advent of a son and heir in the Cleveland home is an suspicious event for many reasons. The baby boy at Princeton comes of an old New England stock and is probably eighth in descent from Moses Cleve- land, who came from Ipswich, Eng land, in 1885, and settled in Woburn, Mass.
 Among the beneiciaries of the Pull man will is William Wells, a well known servant at the White house. He will receive $3,000 and his brother Arthur $5,0O0. Wells was at one time a Pullman car porter and always accompanied Mrs. Pullman on her journeys. He was a car porter to President Harrison on his trip to the Pacific coast in 1891, and Presi- dent Cleveland afterward gave him a place at the White house.
