great foreign physicians might be able

Was Clever SWindle.

Charlotte, N. c., Oct. 22.-The
story sent out from Fayetteville few
days ago to the effect that the Ameri-
can Pressed Steel company had closed
a deal for water front site on which
it would erect plant giving employ
ment to 500 men, turns out to be
clever swindle. Two men represent
ing themselves as William Soaring,
chief engineer, and J. P. Jones, super
intendent of construction, of the Pitts
burg concern, well dressed and
smooth, selected the site and pre-
pared to sign the deeds. First, how
ever 20 feet must be excavated to be
sure of solid foundations. Adver-
tisement was made for laborers of
every description at high figures and
each was required to pay SO cents
for his check with name and number.
To-day the two men disappeared,
leaving unpaid board, livery and
numerous other bills, and rs labor
ers are each out so cents and two
days work.

THIS is MY 5OTH BIRTHDAY
Juan VinCente Gomez

Juan Vincente Gomez, president OF
Venezuela, was born July "a, 1859
In his youth he devoted himself chief
ly to agricultural pursuits, first in
Venezuela and subsequently In Col
ombia, whittier he was driven
through political troubles. By un-
firing energy and intelligence he
founded great coffee plantation and
accumulated a large fortune. Com
ing under the influence of Cipriano
Castro, late dictator of Venezuela,
and believing in his professions of
patriotism, Gen. Gomez placed a
large portion of his fortune at the
formers disposal and was therefore
one of the principal factors in the
movement which brought Castro to
the presidency. With the policy and
greed of Castro which brought Vene-
zuela to the verge Of ruin and plung-
ed the country into serious conflict
with foreign powers, Gomez turned
against his former chief and with the
flight of Castro to Europe the lead
ers of the revolutionary movement
selected Gomez to succeed to the
presidency.

the powers were well pleased with

a term of three years, and In 1901
the appointment was renewed But
again the old antagonism between
Moslem and Christian kindled the In.

the powers were forced to station

Following the revolt Of 1888 Sha-
kir Pasha was sent to the island by
the Turks ~ military governor and
he proclaimed martial law. In 1889
he violated the provisions OF the Ha-
lepa pact, which had been Endorsed
by the powers. Legislative represen-
tation was ignored and all the Gus
toms receipts of the island were ap-
propriated by Turkey. The island
was ruled despotically. Christians
refused to go to the polls and gen.
eral troubles existed Finally the
European powers interfered, and in
1894 Christian was made governor.
The legislative assembly was once
more established, but trouble at once
arose over the question of finances.
The revolt assumed formidable pro-
portions and the efforts of the pow
ers failed to stop IT..
Finally, In 1897, Greece made an
effort to take the island away from
Turkish control, and out of this grew
the war between Greece and Turkey.
Greece sent troops to Crete, but Tur-
key was victorious In the war, and
as result the Greek troops were
withdrawn and Turkish garrisons
took their places. They INDUCED in

CRETE EVACUATION
TUESDAY

London, July 24.-The coming
week Is to add another important
| chapter to the turbulent history of
| Crete, the rugged little island in the
eastern Mediterranean which, from
the fact that 1t forms a natural link
between Europe and Asia, has always
been looked upon with more or less
coyetous eyes by the rival European
powers. Tuesday next Is the day fixed
for the evacuation Of the island by
the international troops that for
three years past have been maintain
ed there by Great Britain, France,
Russia and Italy to preserve order
Though the various interested pow
ers affect to believe that no seriosu
disturbances will follow the with
drawal of the troops, it is doubtful
if any statesman in Europe views the
situation as other than one full of
trouble and menace.
The trouble in Crete arises from
the fact that the island, though a
Turkish possession, is inhabited
chiefly by Christian Greeks, who have
long been agitating for complete
union with Greece. When the with
drawal of the international troops Is
accomplished the Turks fear that the
Cretans, with Greek support, may at
tempt to throw off Turkish sover-
eighty.
To any such attempt the Young
Turks. who are fearful of any fur
Their loss of prestige and territory to
the empire, will offer the strongest
resistance, and advices recently re-
ceived from Salonica tell of warlike
preparations being pushed on with
feverish haste.
Crete has been theatre of bloody
strife since the days of Homer. Torn
by civil discussions, the island main
tanned it's independence under the
various Macedonian monarchs, but
finally became a Roman province.
Subsequently it passed under Vene-
tian rule. 1t was not until 1915 that
the Turks made serious attempt to
effect conquest. Then they landed
with an army of $4,000 men, reduced
Canea and Retimo, and laid siege to
Gambia, which capitulated after a re-
sistance of twenty years, the most
protracted siege ON record The fall
of Gambia meant the submission of
the entire island.
From this time the island contin-
ued subject to Ottoman rule till the
outbreak of the Greek revolution in
1921. The struggle then was pro-
longed till in 1880 the allied powers
France, Russia and England
transferred the island to the govern
ment of Mehmet ALI, viceroy of
Egypt. In 1910 Crete was again TAX
en- from Mehemet ALI and replaced
under the dominion of the Turks.
The Cretans' desire for freedom re-
suited in four successive revolts, one
In 1859. which was speedily repress-
ed; another in 1866. which continued
