had prompted the different members Of
the group 70 come West They all told
Of the more or less discreditable causes
for their migration. with the exception
OF rather a tactiturn but generally pop
Uiar fellow who was known as "ParsOn
Jim because Of the clerical cut OF the
attire which he universally affected.
Why did you come West, Parson? -
qneried Swamp Angel Sam.

Everybody smiled at what was con-

not noticing the merriment he had Gre
ated. continued:
1t was this way. We used TO hold
meetings in the district school house
in Massachusetts, and did the preach
ing. The little flock grew. and it was
decided 10 build a small church. The
funds. as they were collected were plsc-
ed in my hands for safekeeping" He

Greece, but an intmation was given to
the Porte that it would not be allowed to

Ottoman territory unless the negotiations
were dropped.
The News further saws that the Porte
has taken measures to prevent Greeks
leaving Turkey similar to those adopted
some time ago regarding the Armenians.
A census of the Greeks in the EN- pire will
be taken for this purpose.
Despite the report from st. Petersburg
that complete unanimity does not exist
among the powers as to the proper course
to be followed in. the Cretan matter. a
dispatch from Canea states that it is re-
.garded there that the removal of the
Turkish troops is necessary as soon as the
European garrisons are strong enough to
fully occupy the forts.
The dispatch adds that the cont;nued

their arms to drive the Turks from the
island and to bring about annexation with
Greece. The desired TO be placed under
