This made the man SO angry he
rushed from the washroom muttering:

he got his lunch. he tipped the waiter.

gave him his hat and gloves. and the

CRETANS RESOLVED
TO THWART AUTONOMY
Little Island with Its Handful OF
People Controls a Peculiar
Situation

ATHENS, Jan. 16.-The Cretans have
resolved to stand out for union with
Greece and to withstand every attempt
at establishing autonomy on any basis
whatever. On this subject there are
no two opinions, and although Crete IS
a little island, and its inhabitants a
mere handful of people, yet they can
effectuGlly thwart every experiment
that the powers may make in the direc-
ton of establishing home rule in the
country. No cabinet formed under the
auspices of the powers of Turkey would
be able to hold its own for one calendar
month.
A serious danger of the situation is
that Crete will draw Greece after her.
When the writ for general electlohs 10
the Athens chamber is issued the
Cretans will elect representatives or
their island and send them TO the
Greek capital. This they Will do pc
cause they still consider their island
as annexed to Greece. No one can
bar the way against the Cretan dep
uties. The Greek cabinet whoever
may be at its head. will not dlsalloW
them to enter the parliament as rep
resentatiVes of Cretan constituencies
And then the Turks will ask for their
innings. That is another source Oh
danger. ,.,o
A third is this: The Military league
in Greece is deeply dissatisfied with
everything done hitherto, and with lts
own self especially. The league is
keen to do something, having already
spoken and written so much. IL rs
preparing for war, and is acting on
the supposition that war will break
out this year. Hence the hurried pur-
chase of armed cruisers and other
signs of the times.
Lastly, the Turkish committee and
the Ottoman government are anxious
to have. a safe little war that would
enable them to win cheap some pres
tige and to hit hard the Greeks of the
Ottoman empire who pursue their own
political ideals and hinder the realiza-
tion of those of the Turkish party.
Lastly, dictatorship is impending In
Greece.

PURIFY CITY is
PASTORS THEME
Rev. Mr., Locke Tells Congregation at
Methodist Episcopal Church
That Evil Influences Can
Be Abolished

DR.. Charles Edward Locke at the
First Methodist Episcopal church last
evening continued his sermons on
THE Truth About the Devil" his
theme being Some Devils in Our
city Beautiful that Ought to Be Killed,
and that Without Delay" The text
was: THE whole city came out to
meet Jesus" Matt. S:34 DR.. Locke
said in part;
"The excitement in this oriental city
was due to the coming of Jesus after
an event which occurred in the hill
country bordering upon the blue sea
of Galilee. At the command of Jesus
the devils which possessed poor
demoniac who dWelt among the tombs
were expelled and, entering into herd
of swine, they ran down a steep place
ana were choked in the sea. When
Jesus commissioned his disciples he
said: In my name shall they cast out
devils
I'VE are justly proud of our city
beautiful but just as characters are
delled and degraded by evil, so is our
home city; and just as devils can be
expelled from the natures of men by
the power of Christ, so can devils be
driven out of communities.
"These devils should be killed, and
that without delay. | observed that
recently a preacher somewhere stated
The devil is a myth We'll, he is d
very material and deadly myth. When
ever the devil can get preacher to
make such a statement it is good evil
dence the old devil is still in business
at the old stand. The devil of un-
belief should be killed.
| There are also devils of poverty.
OF course the cure for poverty is god
; liness. The universal application of
the principles of Christ would abolish
poverty.
There are devils of greed and ava
rice which seek for the almighty dollar
at the expense of the purity and life
OF our nations youth. These fiends
incarnate that operate dance halls and
skating rinks and houses of impurity

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 16.-With eggs 40

Fred Parker is not the j. Pierpont
Morgan of ST. Louis, as might be
thought from his costly epicurean feat.
He is not even the owner of a paltry
million, and while he does not have to
walk or hang on street car straps in his
travels about the city, his riding is done
not in an automobile tonneau, but ON
the seat of an express wagon.

Parker, and it was then agreed that he
should have a loaf of bread, all the
coffee he wanted, and fifteen minutes
to "clean up" the repast.
The first five minutes showed the 9th

7:43, two minutes before his time was

and had drunk two quarts of coffee.

SEISMIC SHOCKS REND
ISLAND IN CARIBBEAN
Wireless Operators and Residents Are
Forced to Flee to Escape ln=
jury from Earthquake

MOBILE, Ala, Jan. 16.-Swan Island,
$50 miles from this port in the Carib-
bean sea, has been ripped from one end
to the other by seismic shocks, accord
ing to statements of passengers of the
steamship Carinto, arriving here.
Captain Olsen reported that when his
vessel was midway between Port Lii
mon Costa Rica and Corn island tn
sea became suddenly turbulent. Waves
rolled mountain high and for time it
was believed the vessel would be
sWamped.
So severe were the seas that the Ves-
sci was turned completely around.
The island trembled and the tower of
the wireless station swayed so violently
that Operators Roberts and Martin ran
from the building to safety.
A few of the huts were slightly dam
aged The wireless station, though
temporarily out of commission was
said to have Withstood the shock.
Captain Olsen said the sea had a
queer effect on the navigation of the
vessel. While it ordinarily took five
hours to cover the distance between
Corn and Swan island during the dis
turbance it required twenty-five hours.
For several hours before the disturb
ance, Captain Olsen said, there was not
the least wind.

BISHOP HARTZELL SPEAKS
ON WORK OF MISSIONS

PASADENA, Jan. 16.-Something Of
the magnitude of the great mission
airy work being done by the Metho-
dists in Africa was brought home to
the people of Pasadena this evening
at a Methodist mass meeting at the
First church, which was addressed by
Bishop j. G. Hartzell, in charge of
that work on the African continent.
Bishop Hartzel told of missionary eff
fort
In his story the prelate described
the gift of a tract of land really
amounting to a principality to the
work by the late Cecil Rhodes, the
South African multi-mtllionaire. This
land is now improved with buildings
which have cost $S00000 and i'm which
thousands of natives are receiving
Christian training and education. He
also told of his Embarrassing efforts IN
the United States, from the time when
President Roosevelt was one of the
speakers at his first public meeting
until the time when President Taft re-
Gently spoke at a concluding gather
ing the president stating that he
wished Bishop Hartzell might take
three million dollars away with him
instead of the S320,000 which was ac-
tually raised for the work in this
country.
Something of the magnitude of the
undertaking NAV be understood from
the fact that there are 600 different
dialects in Africa while the bishop 5
printing establishment, in spite of
great effort, is only printing tracts and
other literature Of the Christian faith
in eight tongues. The work of reach
ing the natives by printers ink the
bishop declared, is only just begun.
The bishop has been traverstng the
dark continent for the past fourteen
years, annually making a mileage
which would put many travelling
man to shame and often going by the
most primitive transportation methods.
In fourteen years it is estimated that
his work has caused him to travel
over 35OOOO miles in Africa, often
through brush and jungle.

Yesterdays AerOplane Accident
Eugene Ely, the Curtiss aviator,
made but one flight yesterday after
noon, owing to an unavoidable accident
in the first attempt. The aeroplane
got away nicely shortly after 2 o'clock,
and rose gracefully, but then midway
across the field headed west. Ely en-
countered a cross current of wind after
passing the trees near the amph1tae
atre. He ducked, made a beautiful
dive almost to the ground, but in rising
again the propeller caught the rail of
the inner fence and it was all off. The
machine had to be carried TO the tent
for repairs. 1t took the remainder of
Tue ditSInOO0 10 Slue IuS DIduSS anu
make other adjustments and although
it was hoped up to $50 that the second
flight would be made. it was announced
by Ely at that hour that 1t would be
impossible. Ely was blamed by the
exposition management for not having
a reserve propeller, but he explained
that he always carried one, but that
the other was also damaged, and he
had wired for another which would ar
rive today by express. He said the
weather in the afternoon was ideal for
an air fight and was as much disap-
pointed as anyone that it could not be
made. The first attempt was very
pretty while it lasted, Notwithstanding
that an altitude Of not more than 80
feet was attained when the dip was
made.
Ely promises successful flights dur
ing the remainder of the week, and
the exposition feels confident that they
will be made if the weather permits.
The automobile parade announced
for this morning was called off.
