TALE or A WHEEL.
A Ride TO ThunderboIt, Drinks aud
an Arrest.

Policeman Murphy noticed one-legged
negro exercising himself on a bicycle in
front of the police barracks last night.
There was no light on the wheel, and so
Murphy took him in for violating the or
dinance.
The wheel proved to be a ladys make,
and the negro was put down as sus-
picous character having a wheel in his
possession supposed to have been stolen.
The prisoners story was that the wheel
belonged to a young woman, who had rid
den to Thunderbolt on IL, cotton too full
to ride home on her wheel and then turn
ed the wheel over to a negro to bring
home for her.
The negro. who was intrusted with the
wheel turned il over to the ono-leggod
fellow, who. not having the opportunity
to ride wheel very often, decided to en-
Joy himself for a while before carrying il
where Il belonged Investigation proved
the prisoners story to be true.

THE Foley ARRESTS.
1t Is Said the Indictments Have Not
Broken Up the Business.

The stir up among the policy men was
all the talk in sporting circles yesterday.
AS stated in the Morning News, arrests
of all the proprietors and many of the
agents or writer's have been made, and
the others were being brought in one by
one at last accounts.
About forty of the ticket writer's had
been arrested up TO yesterday afternoon.
but all of them had secured their re
lease from Jail by giving bond in the sum
of 500, with one exception, a negro who
was unable to get surety, and he is
spending his time in Jail.
A number of the negroes have skipped
out it is thought, as the officers have
been unable so far to get them all. 1t
was reported last night in policy circles
that the wheels are still turning, and that
those which have lost their old employees
have secured new ones, and are going
right ahead with the business. Several
negroes who make a habit of playing pol
icy asserted this as a fact. If it is
true the proprietors of the wheels, who
ever they may be, appear to think, that
now they are under indictment, they will
not be bothered again for some time to
come.
The business was broken up for q while
following the warning of Judge Norwood
that the next one convicted of running
policy lottery would be sent to the chain
gang for twelve months, but 1t is said
now 1t has been in progress since Jan. !.

GREEKS READY TO GO TO GREECE
The War Spirit of Savannah's Colony
Up, But No Emigration Likely.

The War Spirit of Snvannah's Colony
Up, But No Emigration Likely.
Half dozen Greeks were in Piano Popes
fruit store last night discussing the state
of affairs in Greece, and the prospects of
a war with Turkey. They were all in SYM
pathy with King George in his efforts to
wrest Crete from Turkish rule, and in his
defiance of the powers who would pre-
vent him from doing so. All the men,
bers of the party said, however. that they
had no idea of volunteering at present,
nor had any organized effort been made
by them for the purpose of aiding their
mother country.
we have organized no society and we
know of no volunteers who are about to
leave for Greece" said one of the party.
There Is no reason why we should give
up our business here and go home now.
We do not know that there will be any
war II there should be a war some of us
will go and the others will raise what
money we can to help them. The Greeks
here are poor and very few could raise
more than enough 10 pay their passage
home. 1t would be foolish for them 10
sell out all they have here. go home and
find they were not needed and then be
stranded there with no work and no means
to come back on"
This seemed TO be the view of all I'VE
read every bit of the news about Greece
in the Morning News every morning" said
one, land we are glad you give so much
news about it, 1t would be a queer man
who wouldn't feel an interest in his ma
tive country"
Three of the party of six were natu-
rallied citizens. Piano Pope, who is 60
years of age, said that he is a naturallzed
citizen OF this country. but he is ready
to so to Greece and fight, If needed.
"Ir l can sell out this store for $780," he
said. II will pay my debts and have
enough left TO get home on. l have got
my walking shoes already"
Some of the others laughed at this, but
Piano said that he was in earnest. If the
war cloud bursts in the Orient II is very
likely that Savannah will be represented.

W. c. T. U. Monthly Meeting.

The W. c.. T. U. held it's regular
meeting at SO Oak street this
afternoon. Owing to the intense heat the
meeting was not large, but enthusiastic.
Many interesting reports were given,
showing that the different departments
are wideawake for the work The report
from the Flower Mission was especially
interesting, as there was such generous
response to the appeal for fruit and
flowers that many ladies were busy the
entire day in gladdening the hearts of the
recipients. There were new members
made at this meeting but we are not
satisfied, we call for more Are all the
temperance women in Portland members

THE HOTTEST YET.
September Is Making Its Mark in the
Weather.

Yesterday was the hottest yet. 1t beat
the record for the year. The thermometer
ranged all the way from SO degrees to 81
degrees, according to locality. The
Weather Bureau thermometer indicated
"a degrees. At the corner of Clark and
Spruce streets it was 81 degrees. At the
corner of Brackett and Spring streets 90
degrees, at the corner of Spring and Eme.
ry SO degrees, on Park and Gray it was 80
degrees. There was quite breeze that
electrics. Down in Railroad Square at
the West End Hotel, they hadn't any
thermometer and didn't want any. That S
how they felt. About the coolest places
were the offices III the Custom House and
City Building.
Iced drinks were in great demand.
The drug store people said they had a
right to the custom, for the cold weather
of the summer had spoiled the trade.
At the hat factory the employees were
allowed to leave work at noon it was SO
hot.
Yesterday was the hottest day on rec
ord in Portland for September. The
hottest previously was "a degrees, Sept.
Z, 1881, but yesterday the mercury
touched just half degree more, standing
aJS94 1-2. The warm weather will con-
tinue until Sunday. Out West it is very
cold, the mercury having dropped to
freezing.
The wind was west and the air was
very dry SO that very few realized it was
SO hot, the heat being no more trying
than when IL the thermometer is s. in a
m DIST day.

A TIRED LITTLE BIRD.
One of Admiral Sicard's Carrier
Pigeons Arrives.

1t AIighted at South Portland Thursday
Evening-Its Message.
Thursday evening as Mr.. Edward
Walsh, of Summer street, South PORT
land, was standing in his yard, he saw a
pigeon alight near him. The bird seemed
very tired, and when Mr.. Walsh observed
this he opened his stable door. The little
bird at once hoped in, and he shut the
door. The bird then hoped onto the
window sill, where it readily allowed
itself to be caught.
Mr.. Walsh saw at once that the bird
was carrier, for on one leg was band
of metal, numbered in the. vicinity of 700
On the other leg was small, cylindrical
metal box, of the diameter OF lead PEN
Gil, and fitted with a cover which screwed
on.
Mr.. Walsh opened this box and found
within folded sheet of paper about four
inches square This sheet of paper had
an inscription on it which showed that
the pigeon, came from some vessel of the
American Navy. 1t contained the request
that the bird be sent to the nearest station
of the United States Navy, with state
ment of the time, place and circumstances
of the finding of the bird.
Mr., Walsh will send the bird to the
Kittery Navy Yard, When it arrived it
was all tired out, evidently having flown
long distance.
There seems to be no doubt that the
pigeon came from some vessel of Admiral
Sicard's fleet, which is now off Fortress
Monroe The training of carriers is now
a part of the regular routine on the fleet.
