A SWIMMING QUADRILLE.

Harry Montague, than whom there
was never a greater matinee girls ia
vorite in this country, related that on
one occasion at Scarborough, a IA
nous watering place in England
party of ladies and gentlemen, among
whom was Miss Nelson, were enjoy
ing dip in the sea, when the actress
proposed a swimming quadrille. 1t
was agreed to, and she formed dou-
BILE set. OF course deep water for
this purpose was a necessity, and that
was a most trying ordeal to those of
the party who were Indifferent swim
mers, but who were also too proud to
admit their shortcoming. The most en-
We'd man in the party was a portly
old baronet who had Miss Nelson for a
partner. He was decidedly long on
liquor and short on breath on this oc-
casion, and by the time the ladies
chain" had been reached, he was pref
ty well played out. Miss Nelson had
great difficulty in keeping him at her
side. He would drift over and under
and in all kinds of ways, to the great
amusement of the other participants.
Finally he disappeared altogether, and
when, some moments later, that fact
was noticed, there was a small panic,
and everybody made a break for the
shore. The old baronet had already
been rescued, and he was found in the
bath house, pretty nearly gone.
Everybody shouted in chorus, Pump
him outr' Miss Nelson, who had real
ly been amused by the mans plight
and who did not realize the gravity Of

gun battery on the crest was supported
by artillery and by the Evzones, while
the second battery was held in reserve
at the lakeside. razrsx
The action began with a slow rife
fire on both sides. At $50 o'clock the
Turks, springing into the intrench-
mentS, rushed on the Greek position,
but the Evzones responded with the
bayonet, driving the Turks back in a
most gallant manner. By g. O'clock in
the morning it was light enough to
employ the battery. The gunners open
ed fire and the engagement became
general. The Greeks, who numbered
1900, in obedience to orders, refrained
from attacking the Turkish position
They kept up a CALLING fire and, after
Smelling the position Of the first batal-
lion, compelled the Turks belonging
to that organization to seek the cover
of the woods. Two of the guns of the
Greek battery were thrown out of &C

announced. has declined to comply, de-
claring that she will observe neutrality
during the war between Turkey and
Greece. This refusal Of Bulgaria to
acknowledge her vassalage to Turkey
is regarded as being a very important
departure and as foreshaWoding the
declaration Of independence of Bull
garia.
The ambassadors Of the powers. at
a meeting just held, have decided to adj
dress Identical notes to the Turkish
government, asking that the Greeks
employed by the foreign ministries
consulates and hospitals and all Greek
ecclesiaSts be permitted to remain in
Turkey. The ambassadors also pro-
pose that the foreign consulates use
their good offices in behalf of the
Greeks, who represent the interests of
the foreign capital, and, finally, they
will recommend that in any case, the
Turkish government should observe
moderation in carrying out the eX-
pulsion of the Greeks
The question is a very serious one
At Constantinople alone, there are 40
900 Greeks, and throughout Turkey
there are 100000 Greeks. Fears are
expressed that disturbances will oc-
cur during the Greek Eastertide, which
begins today. Nevertheless, a notice
was read in all the mosques yesterday
enjoining the Turks not to modest the
peaceable Greeks, the war being a mat
ter between the two armies.

were lost. A change of engine was
made at Preston. At Villisca it was
discovered that one Of the trucks Of
the engine was becoming hot, and at
Red Oak a stop Of seven minutes was
made to change engines and receive
new orders. The distance from Pacific
Junction to McCook is 287 miles, and
the running time was 306 minutes,
which included a loss Of sixteen

him to reach Albany anywhere near the

to reach Albany and keep his engage

so he had a train made up consisting

son tWenty-nine miles were covered in
tWenty-eight minutes. Albany was
gained in two hours, thirty-sx minutes
and nine seconds from the time the
train left the Grand Central depot.

shells from the guns fell in the center

great havoc. The column wavered, halt

obedience to orders from the Crown

Adelaide Nelson.
GENIUS OF THE GREAT EST JULIET

NEW YORK, April 22.-So much has
been written about the professional
career Of that excellent actress and
charming woman. Adelaide Nelson,
and the tales Of her generosity are so
numerous, that it would perhaps be
interesting to know how her theatrical
friends, who were in some sense also
rivals, regarded her. The difficulty in
the way Of that plan, however, is
that there was but one opinion of her
ability and goodness. Everybody
thought that she was beyond cavil in
both Of these respects, and as agree
able as such reading might be to her
admirers of the present day, it would
certainly also be decidedly dry.
I have heard a great many stories
dealing with the lighter and flowing
side Of Adelaide Nelson's character,
and, as I was her stage manager for
long time, know that most Of them
are true. All should be interesting, if
