WHY 1T WAS HOT.



With a Chatting Dish.

years, said Smiley Williams, but enc

blamed triags, but somehow supposed

and I went into Madison street res
taurant for dinner. You know always
have sneaking liking for hash OF any
kind, and so does Bolton. Bolton order

brought it on in swell sort OF silver
dish nearly as tall as cake basket. IL

II loaded up Bottoms plate, and IN
the first pass at it he took the skin or
his tongue, it was SO hot
Just like these Internal places,
Bolton growled. Anything you've got
to eat is blistering hot, while coffee Is
always stone cold.
"After awhile Bolton took some more
hash and burned his tongue again.
"'Holy Moses, he said, what's got
into that hash?'
81 told him nobody was expected TO
know anything about restaurant hash,
especially the fellow who was eating 1t,
but he wasn't satisfied.
"Well, we kept on eating hash until
we had enough. And do you know that
hash left in the dish was hotter than 1t
was at the start?
WELL said Bolton, 4 wouldn't
have believed my eyes, but with most
of the skin off my tongue I've got tc
give it up. Then he called the waiter.

Mr.. I. Zangwill, at dinner OF the
Maccabees, told the following story:
"The fat girl of G., gentlemen, is not
a myth, nor a show person, but a solid,
private reality that l have seen. Her
fatness weighed upon her; so she went
to a physician to be rid of some of it.
He drew up careful dietary. She was
to eat dry toast, plain boiled beef, etc.,
and to return in month to report re-
duction. At the end of the month she
could hardly get through the doctors
doorway. He was aghast. Did you eat
what I told you? he asked. Religious
ly. His brow wrinkled itself. Sudden
ly he had flash of inspiration. Any
thing else?' he asked My ordinary
meals. >"

MRS. NANCY N .KINLEx.

The people of the country, re-
gardless of political affiliatlon,
will sympathize deeply with Pre-
sident Mckinley in the sorrowful
atfliction which has befallen him
in the demise of his venerated
mother, aged S8y years, who depart
ed life at an early hour Sunday
morning. Mother McKinley's end
was not unexpected. The presi-
dent was greatly attached to his
mother, and as devoted son be had
always needed the counsels which
only mother can give, and to
this is attributed much of that
which made such successful man
of the son. The closest of ties
bounded mother and son, and this
inevitable leave-takihg Of the dear
old lady is link that neither time
can forge or obliterate from
memory. A newspaper sketch
reads:
Mrs. Mckinley was distinctively
d home-loving woman, and the
two-story frame cottage on West
Tuscarawas street, in this city,
where she died and where she had
lived for many years, was dearer to
herthan any other sport on earth.
There she spent her declining
days with her daughter Helen and
her grandchildren, Grace and
James Mckinley, receiving occa-
sional visits from her other chill
dren, seldom going out except to
church, where she could be found
every Sunday morning unless
prevented by illness.
While showing a deep affection
for her other children she had
followed the career of William
with pride and solicitude. With
fond motherly admiration sshe
watched him rise from the
position Of prosecuting attorney
Of his own county by successive
stages TO congressman, governor,
and finally to the presidency.
During the memorable campaign
Of last year for the nomination
aud afterwards for the election.
Mrs. Mckinley was one of the
most Interested observers. She
was always given the place of
honor at the home Of her illustri-
Gus son and ON the day that his
nomination BY the ST. Louis con
yention was announced, she heard
the news as soon as he did. Il
was then that William Mckinley
showed the deep love he bore his
mother BY kissing her as soon
as he had received the an
nouncement of the result at St.
Louis. All through the trying
campaign that followed she watch
after her son with deep interest.
She was frequent caller at bis
house and was greeted by many
of'the visiting delegations of re-
puhlicans. She accompanied the
president to the Inauguration
f1dingin the special tram and re.
i manned in Washington until Mr.
hand Mrs. Mckinley had becam'
tled in their new home. Ther

NEGOTIATIONS
Semi Officially Commenced Be-
tween Greece and Turkey.
No Power Has Attempted to Prevent
a Direct Agreement.
The Greeks Have $4,000 Reg uiar and co.
900 IrreG ular Troops on the Frontier
The Turks Have About 10000
Well Equipped Troops in Line.

LARIssA, April lG.-In all the Greeks
have about $4,000 regulars and some
1000 irregulars on the frontier; but
they count a great deal on reinforce.
ments to their armies through risings
in Epirus, Albania and Macedonia.
The Turks, on the other hand, have
about $50, ,000 good, well-equipped
troops in line. OF these "A battalions
are Redifs, raised in Rumelia, in all
about 80, 900 men, who are divided into
two reserve divisions.
At Monastir flying columns have
been formed to watch the Servian
frontier and all the supplies possible
are being pushed forward to the three
Turkish divisions at Elassona, Gre
vena and Janina. The Turks are weak
in cavalry, having only about 5000
mounted men on the frontier. They
are, however, very strong in artillery
and infantry. The transport corps is
we'll organized, field telegraphs have
been laid between all important
points, artesian wells have been bored
at Elassona and the broken bridges in
Macedonia have been repaired as much
as possible.
The Turkish forces at Salonica have
constructed a line of redoubts round
the gulf and down the Egean coast to
Katerina. Krupp and Armstrong guns
have been mounted behind those de-
fenses, and a line of torpedoes has
been laid acros the bay from Cape
Kara.
The discipline of the Turkish troops
is beyond praise. The Greeks, how
ever, are not in anything like the state
of efficiency of the Turks. although
they may at present seem to be an
imated by more warlilIe enthusiasm.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, April 16 - For
three days past the ministerial council
has been in session at the Yildiz Kiosk.
According to one report the ministers
have failed to arrive at any decision,
but another account says the council
has agreed upon plan of campaign in
the event of an outbreak of hostilities
between Greece and Turkey, and that
the ministers also decided that, if a
fresh frontier incident occurs, Edhcm
Pasha, the Turkish commander-in-
chief. is to assume the offensive.
Advices received here from Salonica
say that the authorities are arming
the Bashi Bazouls there and at Janina,
in Albania. In the meantime negotia-
tions continue with the representatives
of the powers here to determine the
basis of Cretau autonomy.
ATHENS April lG,-In the chamber
of deputies Thursday the premier, NJ.
Delyannis, replying to n question on
the subject said that merely semi-oifi-
cial negotiations had been commenced
between Turkey and Greece on the
subject of Crete. He denied that any
power had attempted to prevent a di-
rect agreement being reached between
the two countries.
The bill granting to the government
a credit of 23. 900, 600 drachmas (S4,GOO,
OOO) for the ministries of war and ma
rine. PASSED its first reading.

BUSINESS BLOCK
In New Orleans Destroyed by Fire, En-

In New Orleans Destroyed by Fire, En-
failing "A Loss of 100000
New ORLEANS, April 16 One of the
most picturesque business structures
in the city, known as the Moresque
block, owned by Gauch & Sons, was
totally destroyed by fire Thursday af-
ternoon. The conflagration broke out
shortly before l o'clock, and in an in
credibly short space of time the build
ing was a mass of flames that burst
with velocity absolutely astonishing.
At half past two the edifice had col
lapsed and upward of 100000 had
gone up in smoke. The Moresque
building occupied one entire block
bounded by Camp, Poydras and Church
streets and Lafayette square, and its
walls were built entirely of iron,
in a design known as the Moorish.
The Montgomery Furniture Co. and
Gauch, Sons & Co, crockery mer-
chants, were the tenants OF the build
ing and both firms carried full stocks
The fire is supposed to have origi-
mated in the top floor of the Mont
gomery section. In twinkling
the flames were observed to shoot out
of the windows and later from the
roof and q general alarm called the
entire fire department to the scene
/ The heads of the fire department saw
quickly that the Moresque building
was doomed, and the efforts of the
! fremen were directed to keeping
the flames from spreading
/ to adjacent property, In this
they were only partially successful
for two newspaper offices, the German
Gazette and the Evening Telegram
were completely gutted, their contents
being destroyed and several stores
were also prey to the devouring ele
ments. Adjacent dwelling houses anC
business properties were also damaged
more or less by water.
