Athens, March 9.-The reply of
Greece to the composite note Of the
powers is conciliatOry in tone, fully
the important objects that
the powers have in view and offering to
withdraw her fleet from Cretan waters.
Greece points to the fact that it is i'm
possible for her to withdraw her troops
from the island in view of the danger
of further massacres. On the other
hand, Greece offers to place her troops
in Crete under the control Of the
powers in order that they may be avail
government of Greece suggests that the
Cratans be allowed to choose their own
government. Greece is convinced that
autonomy will not pacify Crete and
in the horrors of N usSulman fanaticism
will be added to the six periods Of an
archy which have already decimated
the island. 1t is impossible in view Of
the past to advise the Cretans to lay
down their arms, Greece holding that
this advice would not be obeyed, even
if rendered. The reply also says that
since the foreign ships preserve order
in Crete and prevent the landing Of
Turkish troops the presence of Greek
ships is unnecessary, but it is eX-
planned that the Greek army cannot
leave the Christians to the risk Of
mussulman fanaticism and Turkish
troops.

Days in Lenfcn Period.

A writer 20 an Eastern paper asked
for an explanation IS 20 why there were
forty-seven days in Lent in 1897? The
reply is given that mistake was evil
IDENTIFY made by the inquirer In count
ing the days, as there are but forty-six
days this year, the same as any other
year, or, more properly speaking, forty
days and six Sundays, for the Sundays
are not counted in the days of fasting.
Il Is impossible that there be any more
or any Ices than forty week days and
six Sundays In the Lenten period, ow-
ing 70 the fact that Il always begins on
the same day OF the week, Ash Wednes-
day, and ends on the Saturday evening
preceding Easter Sunday, that is to say
the Lenten period ends on Easter eve.
This manner Of computing the days
was handed down by the Jews. To
them a day is from sunset to sunset
and not, as with the people Of to-day.

difference.

The following from Col. Ingersoll
may be read by every laboring man in
the nation.
Rich men meet In the bank, the club
house or parlors. Wor1ingmen, when
they combine, gather in the street. All
the organized forces of society are
against them. Capital has the army
aud navy. the Legislative, judicial and
executive departments. When the rich
combine it is.for an exchange of IDEAS
When the poor combine, 1t is "conspi-
racy.h II they act in concert, IL they
really do something, it is "mob." If
they defend themselves, 1t is sstreason. Z"
In this country the political power is
equally diyided among men. Why
should the rich control? There are
certainly more poor than rich. Why
should not the laborers combine for the
purpose of controlling the executive,
legislative and judicial departments?
The reason the laborers don't, is be
cause they don't know enough and re-
fuse to be taught.

head was cut in number of places and
some Of the cuts were ugly and looked
10 be serious. He was also bruised
about the body and arms. In dressing
the wounds the DR.. was forced to use
the needle freely. A thickly padded
cap which the old gentleman wore that
cold day protected his head and prob
ably saved his life.
