NEW CRETE STAMPS.
Revolutionists Have Issued New Set
for Collection.

New postage stamps issued by revolu-
tionists in the island of Crete are now
being offered to collectors, and are inter-
esting from the manner in which they
were issued. political party In the
island desires to bring about the expul-
sion of Prince George and to end the
occupation Of the powers. Having gained
control of one province. the committee
found itself in want of funds and decided
to procure the necessary cash at the ex-
pense of philatelists. The brilliant revo-
lutionists conceived the idea that by Is
suing a special set of postage stamps
they could sell thousands to collectors
all over the world at a clear profit, as
the stamps would never be redeemed.
Therefore a statoner in Athens was
ordered to print series of stamps for a
postal service that did not exist. The
values were 8 10, 20, 50 lepta and
drachma, 500 copies of each being au-
thorized by the decree. The design in
cludes a square frame at the top, en-
closing the Greek words, signifying
provisional Government of Crete-Pos-
tai Service" while the value in figures
and words appear at the bottom without
frame. Over the wide center space and
overlapping both top and bottom IN
scriptions appears, apparently printed
with a rubber stamp, a representation or
the winged Victory with the Greek
word signifying union below. both be-
ing included in a circle. The colors, as
authorized by the original decree, We're
as follows: !, green, overprint In red;
10 /. red and green; 20 /, red and blue;
SO /, violet and green; / dr., blue and
red.
Many of these stamps have now reached
the United States from dealers abroad,
and are of very crude appearance, being
impressed on large pieces of paper with
OUT any gum. and looking more like box
labels than stamps. II is probable that
very few collectors will admit the stamps
to their collections, as. while interesting
as curiosities, they were not Issued by
any regularly established government Tor
real postal duty and phiatelists object
on general principles TO such speculative
emissions.

BODY IDENTIFIED
BY A POLICEMAN
WAS E. L. FREDERICK, AN EN-
PLoYE OF THE LOUISVILLE AND
NASHVILLE RAlLRoAD-HoME

The body Of the white man found on the

while the body was horribly crushed and
mangled
1t is supposed that the man fell as he
was trying to board a train and was
dragged from Twentieth street to point
near Nineteenth street. where he was
found.
It is thought that the deceased was the

asked on the 18th instant to find. On
that date a woman asked that her hus-
band, who was an employee of the Louis
vile and Nashville railroad, be located
She gave the name of Broderick and
stated at the time that her husband had
gone to the pay car to draw money due
him, two days before and had not re-
turned.
The funeral will be held from the fam
lily residence this afternoon at $50 o'clock.

Datto Bryan.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
Mr.. William Jennings Bryan has lived
down at last the Islander that he could not
be elected anything. Away back before
he burst into fame Mr.. Bryan had been
elected to Congress, but this was in the
time when western states didn't care
much whom they sent to Congress. And
since that time 1t has been the favorite
taunt of his enemies that in a ght for
popular suffrage he was always a sure
loser Besides his two beatngs In the
presidential race, he failed of popular en-
dorsement by the voters of Nebraska in
his ambition to go to the United States
Senate With defeat by the reorganizers
in 1904. his career threatened to end with
out vindication from the charge that he
never could win another elective office.
From far-off Mindanao comes the news
of the redemption of Bryan. The inhabi-
tants of Duluan have elected him an non
orary datto. have heaped lim with pres
ents. and in honor of his triumph have
given him an artillery salute. Mir. Bryan
announced to his admiring Filipino con-
stituents that 1t was the most interesting
day he had spent in the Orient The fact
that he had no opponent and won the
election to the dattoship by default did
not embtter the draught of his joy nor
take away from the strange sensation of
victory.

What Chicago Faces Tell.

Loren II. r. Knox, in January Atlantic.
Chicago's great mission of uplifting
the races is broadly evident in the
faces of its masses.
OF course, only by viewing the null
titude as whole is the effect recog-
nizable The observer can know moth
ing of individuals, but looking into the
countenances of hundreds of Teutons,
Jews, Celts, Scandinavians and Slavs,
the prevailing types seen daily on the
streets, he discerns the American
quality in varying degrees creeping in
to supplant some of the more marked
native lineaments. A distinguishable
homogeneousness is working out of
the heterogeneous human compound.
Even two or three years as janitor,
teamster, gardener, junk dealer or
hod carrier in a large American city
have an effect in molding away the
aboriginal inertness and depression
from the features of an alien.

PLAcEp uNpER ARRgsT.
Birmingham Mans Elan to Organize
School Children is Under Suspicion.

Philadelphia, January 2S-An investiga-
ton that followed the receipt of scores Of
letters and circulars by President Roosc-
velt members of his cabinet other gov
ernmental officials and congressman, urg-
ing them to join an organization called
srhe Civic Cadets of America resulted in
the arrest in this city today of Benjamin
Catehings of Birmingham, Ala.
The arrest was made by a United
States secret service operative and a
detective attached to the local police bu-
reau. No charge has been made against
Catchings, who is about % years of age,
but he will be held pending the action of
his family. with whom the police have
communicated.
According to the secret service agent
Catchings has been sending letters to
men Of national prominence, urging them
to join the organization. The letters We're
accompanied by circulars and pamphlets
on questions relating to the manner OF
running the national government. A close
perusal of the literature failed TO locate
any precise purpose of the sender. The
receipt by President Roosevelt of some
of the letters, and literature, most of
which was signed Civic Counsellor of the
Civic Cadets of America" came from this
city, and after a search the sender was
located at a local hotel. When arrested
he wanted to send kilograms summoning
1000 of his cadets to rescue him from
the police.
Catchings appears to be we'll educated
and the police believe he is suffering tenn
porarily at least from dementia.
Ben Catchings is one of the best known
and most highly esteemed young men of
Birmingham His friends here who We're
informed of the arrest are inclined to
treat 1t as a joke.
It is known that Mr.. Catchngs has been
interested for some time in the matter OF
organizing the youth of the country into
a patriotic society to be styled the Civic
Cadets. School principals, and school SUI
rerintendents have co-operated with him
and have furnished him with lists of
boys between the ages of IA and 81 years.
1t is felt that so soon as President Roose-
Welt learns the facts he will direct the Sc
cret service men to cease their activity.

Der Manufacturers association opened

TABLE LINEN A DELIGHT.
Stripes Are in Vogue and Wider They
Are the Better.

From the Washington Post.
The newest table linen is a delight to
the eye Stripes are In vogue, and the
wider the better.
If the linen is very fine its quality is
more evident in simple striped design
than any other. Some of the handsomest
cloths have a wide plain stripe, alternat-
ing with one in MORE effect, the border
being of some such conventional design
as the Greek key. Others have floral
borders or large pattern, which are very
effective.
The housekeeper of limited income does
we'll to supply herself with tablecloths
of unbleached linen. which are being
brought out Just now in very handsome
designs and are sold by the yard. The
best of these show huge round spots al
ternating with smaller ones or cubes of
different sizes.
Italian huckaback towels are growing
in popularity in this country. One of the
best linen houses In the city finds 1t i'm
possible to fill the demand for thine.
These towels vary in price from 80
cents to $40 each and are not only good
to look at but also delightful to the touch.
They are hand woven and even the
cheapest are finished with fine handmade
knotted fringe. Others make great show
ing of drawn work combined with the
fringe, and are far too handsome to be
relegated to the bathroom.
For years American linen dealers have
been trying to induce the best-known
manufacturer of towels in ireland to
bring out a damask towel with an all
over design. The old manufacturer stead
tasty refused. He gave them new bor-
ders each year. and they grew in beauty,
but he simply would not take their adj
vice about bringing out a towel that
was all border, as he put it. declaring
that it would be ugly and there would
be no demand for it.
At last he has yielded. sending over
the most exquisite damask towels of all
over scroll and flower designs, and al
ready he is over six months behind in
orders for them. The cheapest of these
towels is 81. 80 each.
