While Mr.. Spauldng was the father of

plan at a time when the government s
credit was exhausted, when the treasury
was empty and the soldiers We're clamoring

Taylor credit for the idea.

of cavalry and four batteries of artillery
have been sent to reinforce the Turkish
troops fighting at Velestino. The victory of
the Turks seems assured. The prisoners

that of Voio, is disposed to submit and
from various sources it is learned that the
Greeks are badly demoraized and discon-

the first engagement at Velestino are now
coming into the hospitals of Larissa. The

The inhabitants of Larissa denounce the
commander of the Greek troops and even
accuse him of treason They hope for an

cat came here last January. He didn't like

old home, six hundred miles away, and is
there now as happy and healthy and con-
tented as the big flower which gives his ma
tive State a name. The cat, which is a
splendid Maltese was brought here by a
family named Nading The cat seemed de-
jected, and, after moping about for three
weeks, disappeared. To-day the Nadings
got a letter from relatives who live in the
old Kansas home saying that Thomas had
come back to them, a little tired and hun

travelled the six hundred miles between here
and Topeka how he knew where to go, how
he lived while on the journey and why he
did not lose his way are things his owners
cannot guess, and will not attempt to ex-
plain, until some scientist can account for
the marvellous feats under the guidance of
the wonderful attribute now known in
Stinct.'
