A PAINFUL RECOLLECTION.
Uncle DOddridge Realizes That Life al
Best is Full of Misery.

"Uh-ah!' sighed old Uncle Dod-
bridge, removing the well-polished head
of his ancient hickory staff from be-
tween his toothless gums. Life is full
of misery at. best, and 1 have had my
full share Of sorrows an privations
Il have had my dear ones torn from
me by the cold hand of death. I have
had my home, snatched away from me
twice by the officers of the law. I've
suffered from flood an fire, pestilence
an famine. I've been plundered an
robbed by them I've trusted, an had
the friends l loved turn from me in my
hour of need. I've bought gold bricks
an green goods an patent churns an
corner lots in Florida swamps, an suf-
fered the disappointments that most
generally attend the acquisition of ex-
perience.
I've run for Office an been unani-
mously showed under; I've been pound
ed several times for the offenses of men
that l resembled, an been tarred an
feathered once by mistake for the feller
that looked like me- I've indorsed notes
for Tom, Dick, an Harry, an paid 'em
with the sweat of my brow. I've blown
out the gas an been buncoed quite nu-
merously. l had appendicitis before it
became fashionable. l once sold, for 81
an a calf with the blind staggers, a
scrubby colt that turned out to be a
$4,000 racer. The people who owed me
died suddenly, while them that 1 owed
remained well an hearty 1 have sus-
tanned SO many broken legs an arms
an ribs that l have lost all count of
'em. Many other painful an distressin'
things have happened to me, but now
my memory has failed so badly that l
can't recollect the rest of 'em.
My hard life is drawin' to a close.
an l am glad of it; l have nuthin' but
sorrow an trouble to look back to, an
nuthin' to look forward to but death. 1t
seems as if everything-fate, circum-
stances, an humanity-has been ar
rayed against me all these years; but
what hurts me worse than all the rest
was the wasteful an extravagant man
ner in which my worthless son-in-law
used to use the axle grease. ."-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.

HE GOT BETTER.
Her Soft Words of Comfort Were as
Nothing.

1t was a sad scene. The old man lay
on his bed, and by him sat his faithful
wife holding his worn hand in hers, and
forcing back the tears to greet his wan
dering look with smile She spoke
words of comfort and of hope. But he
felt the cold hand falling on him, and
he turned his weary eyes up to her pale
worn face.
JEANNE, dear wife, l am going?"
Oh, no, John, not yet, not yet
Yes, dear wife" and he closed his
eyes, the end is near. The world-the
world grows dark around me, gathering
thicker and thicker, and L seem to hear
sweet music
mo, no, dear John; that's the brass
band in the street.
'What?'' said the dying man. Have
those scoundrels dared to come around
here when they know I'm dying? Give
me my boot-jack. I'll let 'em see,' and
in towering rage the old man Jumped
from his bed, and before his wife could
think, he had opened the window and
had SHE'D the boot-jack at the band,
I've hit that Dutch feader, anyway"
said he, and went back to bed and got

THE ALLIED POWERS
To Take Some Action to Stop the Grsco-
Turkish War-They Cannot Agree As to
the Course to Pursue.

Copyrighted by the Associated Press)
London, April 49, p. MN spite of
the fact that the hostilEties on the
Greek frontier have caused but little
excitement here, communications have
been in progress all day long etwee
the foreign offices at Rome, Paris and
Athens. 1t is reported tonight that
among the other matters considered is
the expediency Of ordering the inter-
national fleets to leave Cretan waters
and to go in the direction of Salonica
and the Dardenelles to watch the fight
ing, with a view to localiZing il. If nee
essary, by naval Intervention. Should
this suggestion. which is understood
to emanate from the Italian foreign Of
fee, be acted upon. it is probable that
only half the fleet OF foreign warships
would be withdrawn for such a pur-
pose, the other half remaining TO con-
tinue the Cretan blockade.
There is said to be a sharp difference
of opinion between the military powers
Russia, Austria, Hungary and Ger
maryland the Maritime powers-Great
Britain, France, and Italy as to the
most expeditions and least violent
methods of compelling a cessation Of
hostilities should this result not be
reached by the exercise of diplomatic
pressure at Athens and Constantinople.
The likelihood is that the force to be
employed by Europe, if a resort to
force becomes necessary, would be by
sea, as the contingencies of military in
tervention might be more serious thar
the hostilities now in progress.
1t is reported at the foreign office that
the communications received here to-
day from the Marquis of Salisbury, af-
ter his interview with Queen Victoria,
at Nice, support the theory that the
British government is using its utmost
energy to persuade both the comba-
tantS to make a cessation of the con-
fiict at the stage which it has now
reached.
NJ. Hanotaux, who received the Greek
