Forged Her Mothers Name.

Ellen Cadman, the 15-yearold daugh-
ter of Mrs. l.. A. Cadman of Chattanoo-
ga, was arrested recently at the instance
of her mother on a charge of forgery.
The young lady had cashed checks to
the amount of $50 purporting to have
been signed by her mother. A friend of
the girl, in order to save her from spend
ing the night in the city Jail, made up
the amount, and she was released. The
girl is very handsome and unusually
bright for one of her age. The mother
and daughter were later reconciled. -

The policy Of inaction i'll the national

the government printing Office The
senate, on the representation of the pub
lie printer that there was only little
money on hand, promptly passed joint
resolution making an appropriation of
1925, 900, which it was expected the
house would consider at once. But no
opportunity was given, and upon the

without quorum, adjournment fol-
lowed.
Mr.. Palmer states that the Office will
be seriously hampered if this money, or
portion of it at least, is not made i'm
mediately available. An effort will be
made to have the committee ON rules
bring in all order for the consideration
of the joint resolution, for it is already
known that objection will be made to its
consideration by unanimous consent. -

The sacredness of Prayer Rugs.

Verses from the Koran and other pas
sages considered sacred are generally
stamped on the fabrics used as prayer
rugs by the Mohammedans, and it is
criminal in oriental law to export such
pieces This is doubtless because use by
the occidentals means the treading of
the sacred words under infidel feet, and
when you think it over it is not to be
wondered at. A few years ago an Amer
lean succeeded in getting two such
pieces as near home as Paris, but the
inducements offered to him to return
them to the oriental dealer were potent
enough to effect their purpose.

Settled With Infinite Tact Feuds Which
Arose Among His Officers.
After the capture of Vicksburg Logan
chose a prominent and beautiful resi-
dence for his headquarters, and Gener-
al Mcpherson chose the same, and a
quarrel threatened to involve divisions
and corps and gave the superior officers
great concern, according to the Chica-
go Inter Ocean. Both Mcpherson and
Logan carried the case to General
Grant. He heard the schemes of each,
and his staff officers looked with dismay
at his quiet, bashful way of listening.
After hearing both sides General
Grant turned to Logan with a smile
and said he was sorry that the general
had placed his heart on any headquar-
tiers in Vicksburg, because he had just
written an order sending the whole di-
vision on a special expedition to look
after the retreating rebels. Logan glow

and there was no further trouble They
possibly suspected that Grant had in
vented the expeditions to get rid of the
quarrel, but they recognized the fine
strategy of his maneuver, the fairness

to DR.. Parkhurst's expression, female
college. " One of their glees treats OF
that subject. They had a female" col
lege once, but if there is female col.
lege still it goes by another name. The
change is celebrated in verse:
An institution once there was

Belgium's government, which owns
all the railroads in the kingdom, has
put forward a curious defense for resist
ing the claim for damages brought by
the widow and orphan children of a
merchant of the name of Lesaffre, who
was killed i'll an accident caused by a
train running off the line near Bruges
The state argues that if the suit is based
on the transport contract constituted by
the railroad ticket, the heirs of the de-
ceased have no right to any other in
demnity than that arising from "the
nonarrival of the merchandise at desti-
nation;" secondly, that M. Lesaffre,
having been killed Oh the spot, was un-
able to will to his heirs an action Cor
damages on account of suffering en-
dured; thirdly, that the heirs must ex-
plain the cause of the accident and
prove satisfactorily where the state was
at fault.

been invariably received compelling

Constantinople, April 26 - The tri-
umph of the Turkish arms has caused
the Iiveliest satisfaction here. The fol-
lowing telegram from Edhem Pasha is
posted everywhere: "Larlssa has been
occupied by the cavalry of the inn
perial army. The Hellenic troops fed
in disorder, abandoning large guam
tity of arms and ammunition" This
has been put UP asa bulletin in many
places, while the people are also readg
ing Edham Pasha's dispatch announc-
ing his possession Of a strategic posi-
tion in front Of Tyrnavo. previous to
the fan Of LQrissa, which runs as fol-
lows!
"The hill OF Lesdaki, the most i'm
portant dominant point to the north Of
Larissa, was taken by the Ottoman
troops on Friday. Hamid Pasha's di-
vision having left Koskesi (Karya) eff
fected a juncture with the other i'm

on Sat-r7ay considered the expulsion
Of Hellenic subjects from Turkey.
Marked irritation is displayed in Of
flclal cilclcs at the Intervention of the

Is feared that some trouble might arise
from the ships of the powers sent to
protect foreigners at Salonica.
The consuls at Janina telegraphed to
the foreign ambassadors here last Fri
day that the Albanian battalions had
mutiried and were refusing to march,
as well as threatening to attack the
town. The Mussulman population, ac-
cording to tlrese advlces, has quilted
Janina en- masse, some fleeing into the
country and others taking refuge in
the fortress. The consuls described
their own position and that OF the
Christian element at Janina as critical,
the vail having refused to distribute
arms and ammunition to enable the in
llabitants to defend Janina against the
AlDanians. The ENJOYS Immediately
called the attention of Tewhk Pasha
to the matter and demanded the adop-
tiOn Of effective measures to protect
the inhabitants.
1t Is said here that the sultan has
promised the Bulgarian diplomat
