MRS. SICkLES AGAIN

 Soldiers Personal Effects.

New York, Oct. 24.--A plea against the sale of the personal effects of Gen. Daniel E. Sickles. the aged war vet eran, who was formerly ambassador to Spain, was made today by his estranged wife to Sheriff Hamburger, who agreed to a postponement of the threatened sale when Mrs. Sickles promised to pay, about Nov. 10, money necessary to satisfy new judgment against her husband,
 This is the second time in a month that Mrs. Sickles has come to the vet eran's aid. On the other occasion she pawned jewelry that was her property

A letter received by Mrs. Edson T. Gallaudet from her sister, Mrs. Lam bro A. Caromilas, wife of the minis ter of foreign affars and of finance. Rives stirring picture of present con- ditions in Greece. The marriage of ~Mrs. Ceromilas CMiss Anna Ewing Coclrell, daughter of United States Senator F. W. Cockeren of Missouri) took place at the home of Mrs. Galau- det July 6, 1910, when MT. Caromilas was representing his country in Amer ica so that the following extracts from her letter, dated 19 Rue Kiphissia,At ems, Oct 4th. are of local interest:
 We are on the verge of war. It IS probable that by the time you receive this 1t will be declared, and Oh, do pray that we may be&victorious. We hoped until now that war could be averted, but I fear it is inevitable. Tur- key becomes more outrageous day by day in her cruelty to the millions of Greeks and other Christians in Turkey and Macedonia, and particularly in the last named, life is no longer bearable. Besides that, she has broken all trea- ties she has made, in the most inso- lent and cruel manner; landing troops on Greek islands (not under Greek rule, but governing thenselves), where by treaty she had promised never to send troops, and killing women and chilrren, not to speak of men. The barbarity of Turkey can never be un- derstood by those not living in such close relations as I am. She is too big, too wild; there is no way for their atrocities to become known, as there is practically no civilization in the whole country. I can't explain to you the barbarity, the cruelty, the insolent domineering which makes life for all the other Ball1in states-Greere, Bull Earia, Servia and Montenegro-almost Impossible, for Turkey with the slight est movement can affect and ruin all the commerce and prosperity of these countries.
 Attitude of the Powers.
 At any rate, things have come to such a point that if Turkey does not accept the reforms demanded by the Balkan states 1t will mean inevitable war. Of course. all the great pow ers''--England, France, Russia, Ger many and Austriar-are absolutely against US, insisting that Turkey re- main 'intacte,". for their own inter ests, as they all have their eyes and desires upon Turkey, and olSmem- berment of that country would proba- ply mean an European war. as the question as to which power should have the biggest slice is one only to be answered and solved by war. Thus they consider that the interests of smaller countries should be sacrificed to the interests of the greater ones, which is quite comprehensible from their point of view.
 UnbearahIe Cruelty.

as represented in the words, "And the
heavens were opened unto Him."
Forthwith He could see clearly into
the Divine purposes respecting Him
self In manner not possible to Him
prior to His conservation.
At once the Master realized the full
import of the Day of AtOnement sacri-
fees, of the Passover lamb slain, of
the prophecies that spoke of Himself
as being led as lamb to the slaughter,
and of His being the antique of the
brazen serpent, lifted on high for the
healing OF Adams sin-bitten race.
Led of the Spirit-lnto Temptation.
As these thoughts began to rush into
the Savior's mind, He was first of all
pressed of the spirit His own SPIRIT
to go apart for awhile and to study out
the full import Of the Law and the
Prophets and His own obligations ac-
cording to the Covenant He had just
made. For forty days and nights His
intense earnestness made Him oblivi-
GUS to almost everything else. Appar-
emily He neither ate nor slept until the
forty days were ended; and He latter
ward hungered."
Then 1t was that the Adversary ap-
peared as tempter-at the moment
of His physical weakness as the result
of fasting-when His soul was over
whelmed with the realization of the
IN of 10 a
had made and Of what it would cost
Him to fulfil it's terms. 1t was the
severest test imaginable. Would the
Redeemer prove loyal to God-to the
Divine Programme His covenant of
conservation, unto death? Or world
He feel that the Father had poured too
bitter a cup for Him-that God had
made the tests OF loyalty and obedi-
ence too severe-that it was neither
just nor loving to allow Him to enter
into such a contract?
How glad we are to note the loyalty
which triumphed over every tempta
ton! With the angels we acclaim,
Worthy is the Lamb who was slainr'
To Him be glory, honor, dominion and
might everlasting!
Tempted as We Are.
The Savior was not tempted with
the habits Of a drunkard nor the weak
nesses of a 6ebauchee or a libertine,
neither are those the temptations
