What "Garbler' Once Meant.

"Garble." "garbIed." ''garbler." are
words which nowadays convey quite a
different mea ming from that which
was formerly accepted. ",GarbIe" orig

officer. termed 1.-The garbler of spices"
whose duty it was to visit the shops
and examine the spices. ordering the
destruction Of all impure goods. His
duties were similar to those of the in
spector OF the modern health depart
ment, who forbids the sale Of decayed
vegetables or tainted meat. The word
comes from root meaning Ito sift."
The impurities sifted out have in the
course OF generations corrupted the
term till "garbled report" is no long

EuroIar's Besetting Sin.

The burglars besetting sin is heed
lessness. The chances are that 1t was
heedlessness that first drove him out
Of honest employment and made bur-
glar of him. The burglar ransacks q
house and carries away Il spoon hold
er. Il card tray or some other inexpeD-
sive souvenir of the occasion. and be
overlooks the thousand dollar bill on
the dining room table and the rope of
pearls on the, towel rack. This heed
lessness seems to be common to the
whole fraternity. We do not know
what the experience of other cities is,
but in Newark the burglar leaves an
astonishing amount of portable wealth
behind him invariably. When he reads
on the day after the robbery that he
took Mrs. De Stiles chatting dish and
ignored her $500 ruby bracelet beside
it or that he upset the Pompleys'
dresser drawer TO get the revolver and
failed to see the government bonds
that lay in plain sight on the wash
stand. how he much gnash his teeth

velop his powers of attention and OBJ

Tho Power of PadereWski.

days trying to buy cotton when 1t is
low and sell it when it Is high. This
is how he described his experience at
the piano recital.

No one will deny the fact that Ger

CHAINED A WARSH|P.
An Incident of the War Between
Greece and Turkey.
A YOUNG OFFICERS DARING.

The Turks Pluck and Strategy Re-
suited In Making q Powerful Greek
Vessel a Helpless Prisoner Within
the LandlocI<sd Waters Of Arta.
1t was during the war between
Greece and Turkey in 1897 that the
inhabitants Of Gala Krini-a large vii
age, since destroyed by the Turks, on
the shores of the gulf Of Arta-awoke
one morning to find that a Hellenic
battleship had entered the gulf and
cast anchor off the shore. The sur
prise of the Inhabitants of Gala Krini
was nothing compared with that of a
party Of five Turkish officers, who,
fresh from the crest of hill towering
above the village, watched the vessel
through their telescopes. y
These Turkish officers were on an
urgent and important mission = to
block out the Hellenic feet from the
gulf of Arta. Behind them, at the
bottom Of the deep ravine, were a
number of heavy guns which had been
dragged all the way from Saloniki, a
long and difficult task, and with this
artillery they had been ordered to for
tify the strait
To reach the strait, however, the
of the battleship's heavy guns, which
meant sheer destruction. Somehow or
other they must escape the manor
war or prevent her interference with
their work, but to do this seemed i'm
possible
In the midst Of their discussion a
young officer who had been listening
said he could hold the vessel a prison
er If they would allow him. His plead
ing won. and, hurriedly changing his
clothes for those of shepherd. he de-
scended in that disguise to Gala Krini.
Late that night number of figures
stole through the dark alleys of the
village toward the shore. Close to the
waters edge was an old bOathOuse,
used as shed for repairing boats.

was a gentle rattle and from the gloom
emerged Hassan, stripped to the waist,
dragging a heavy chain. This, with
the help of his comrades, he began to
pull, and after an hours laborious
work the end Of the great chain-@once
the cable Of Turkish vessel-was
reached.
From the beach the chain was load
ed on board large caique, whose
sides and floor had been covered with
cloth to deaden the sound. This task
accomplished, three men got in with
Hassan and rowed with muftled oars
toward large rock in the middle OF
the blight. Round this rock the chain
was laid and securely fastened. One
man having been landed on the crag
to keep guard over this end, the boat
set out cautiously for the battleship.
