GRANGE NEWS.
windham County Pomona Grange.

Windham county Pomona grange met
with Protective grange, Brattleboro, Thurs
day. The reports from subordinate
oranges were very encouraging. The
fifth degree was conferred upon a class of
eight The afternoon meeting was open
to the public. Capt II. c. Streeter well
coined the visitors in well chosen words
The response was given by w. 5. Allen of
Jacksonville, who spoke of the willing
ones who are always ready to do their
part. He referred to the increase of crime
and attributed il to lack of education. Such
meetings were educational Everyone
should try to help those who have not our
privileges. c. d. Whitman was called
upon to tell what he knew about the sale
and production of milk. Milk sources
should be from healthy cows; from clean
stables as well as clean cows. He related
a story about a long-suffering patron in
this town who left two dishes outside her
door with a note saying, "Please leave the
dirt in one dish and the milk in the other.
| will mix to suit myself This incident
occurred years ago, before so much was
said about clean milk He made the state
ment that warm milk would not keep as
well as cold milk delivered Milk should
be sold in bottles, which should be well
taken care of by the customer whose name
is on the can. Customers should use great
care about keeping milk in proper places.
Miss Jennie GoodenOugh then sang solo.
The benefits of the grange for men and
women were very generally discussed by
the members, showing that all who tried
to educate themselves in every way,
whether by speaking, reciting, writing or
reading, were the gamers and were bene-
fitted accordingly.
A song was given by c. D. Sargent.
Miss Alta l.. Jacobs gave a recitation which
was enthusiastically received. Then came

Disaster to the Greeks.
the Superior Forces OF the Turks---a
Summary of the Weeks News.

They Have Played "A Losing Game with
the Superior Forces OF the Turks---a
Summary of the Weeks News.
The news of the week from the war be-
tween Greece and Turkey tells a story of
crushing defeat for the Greek forces, and
of what must be final disaster for the Greek
cause. Up to Saturday the dispatches
showed that the Greeks were fighting with
great bravery, and were holding their own
at all points on their northern frontier, but
on that day there was a fierce battle at
Matt on the northeastern frontier, fol-
lowed by the abandonment of Larissa,
their headquarters, by the Greeks, and
their retreat to Pharsalas, 20 miles south
of that city, where a stand is now being
made The Greek retreat appears to have
been little short of rout. The troops
fed precipitately, leaving behind them a
great quantity of munitions of war. They
were greatly outnumbered by the Turkish
forces and the result of fixed battle
would undoubtedly have been disastrous to
the Greeks. Large reinforcements had
been sent to the Turks. Osman Pasha,
the hero of Plevna, was given the COM
mand, and the Turkish troops, excited to
fanatical madness by infammatory appeals
to their religious hate, fought like mad
men. The Greeks have also suffered de-
feat in Epirus, on the western frontier,
near Jannia.
The result of these disasters and re-
verses has been to excite intense popular
feeling against the. Greek government at
Athens, and there has been imminent dan
ger of popular uprising and mob violence.
Tuesday night mob stoned the kings
palace, broke its windows and cried,
Down with the King. Down with Prince
Constantine. Give us republicr Among
many rumors are those that King George
will abdicate in favor of his son, and that
a republic will be established.
Greece is undoubtedly ready to make
peace. One of the latest rumors is that
she will abandon her claims to Crete ii
her northern boundary can be rectifed.
Some act of intervention on the part of
the Great Powers is daily expected, but
there is now no definite indication as to
what this will be.
The dispatches of the week have filled
many pages, but their substance is here
given. The map printed on the 10th
page of this paper will help to an under
standing of the situation.
The latest dispatches state that, under
stress of the popular excitement, King
George asked yesterday for the resignation
OF the Grecian premier, and entrusted to
Demetrios Ralli, the leader of the oppo-
sition' the task of forming a new cabinet
1t is the prevalent belief that the Powers
will wait, before intervening, until Greece
Is ready to make peace and withdraw
from Crete.

WEST BRATTLBBORO.


Thorough investigation has developed
the fact that the item regarding the girl at
the town farm last week was misleading
and partially incorrect, owing to the mis-
information of the correspondent, who is
glad, as usual, to make corrections. 1t
seems that the girl was taken to the farm
primarily for the reason that after French's
arrest his house was frequently visited by
people of shady reputation, whose iniiu-
ence was not Of the best over the girl, and
it was thought useless to make any move
towards helping the girl under such cir
cumstances The next move OF the over
seer of poor and selectmen was to see if it
was possible to secure the money which
French had got that belonged to the girl,
about $3.50, but as she had no security and
as French had no deed of the house moth
ing could be secured Regarding the state
ment that the girl was forbidden to leave
the farm, she was told not to 60 to GER
tain places at the other village while she
was town charge for good and sufficient
reasons and that under such conditions she
could not remain at the farm, but was not
given a chance to work in the farm family
as stated.
The day that the girl went to Newfane
she had a long conference with Messrs.
Weatherhead and Webster who gave her
some good advice and expressed a willing
ness to help her in any way possible if she
would conduct herself properly. She agreed
not to go to see French, but as she did it
was deemed best to have the child boarded
away from the farm. The girl has evil
IDENTIFY not taken the right course TO merit
the confidence of the authorities, and the
child will probably be placed in an institu-
ton for such children at Burlington. Dr.
