REIGN OF TERROR
Greece Shuts Herself Up With
Strict Censorship.
Prince Andrew Safe, But Others
Are Under Arrest.

London, Dec. MANY rumors, one
of them that a reign of terror has
developed in Athens. were circulated
today following the action of the
Greek revolutionary committee in
establishing a strict censorship in the
Greek capital.
General Plastiras. leader of the
revolutionary committee, was said to
be dominating the situation. The only
news that has come thru was an Of
fetal statement, issued by the Greek
committee stating that General Dous-
Inanis, former chief of staff, and Cen
eral Valettas had been arrested and
that a warrant, had been issued for
General Papoulas, former commander
in-chief of the Greeks in Asia Minor.
The statement revealed that Prince
Andrew, brother of Constantine. is still
safe and has not yet been arra1gned
before n military tribunal. His trial
will begin next week, probably Mon
day.
King George. of Greece. attempted
TO abdicate the throne when he
learned that he could not save the six
former state and military officials
executed on Tuesday, but was re-
strained by members of the revolu-
Athens palace has been under guard
by gendarmes and all persons enter
ing and departing, had to show coun-
tersigned permits.
In view OF the widespread protests
turnout Europe, it is possible the
Greek revolutionary committee will be
content to impose long prison terms
and DEGREES of Punishment upon future
prisoners instead of death sentences.
However, this belief is not universal
Greek revolutionary officials are be-
coming enraged, not only at the for
mer functionaries of the old Constan-
tine regime, whom they term traitors
guilty of mad acts of treason" but at
the attempt Of foreign powers to in
terfere.

Plans are being laid by the Vancou.

The cabin was built early in the last

she had her reasons.

WYcLIFFE'S WORK ON BIBLE
Historians Uncertain as to What
Part He Actually Took In Trans
Iatlon Into English.

John Wycliffe (1SS5-13S4), who has
been called the Morning Star Of the
Reformation" translated-or caused
to be translated-the Bible from the
Vulgate est. Jerome'S Latin verSion)
into English, with the assistance OF
Nicholas of Hereford and John Pur
vey. Wycliffe and his disciples la
bored at the translation for some ten
or fifteen years. Scholars are not
agreed as to exactly what part Wy.
cliffe himself took In the literary
work.
ut Is known fact" says the En-
cyciopaedia Britannica, that Wycliffs
proclaimed the Bible as mans su-
2reme spiritual authority, and that he
sought in consequence by every meanA
in his power to spread the knowledge
Of 1t among the people. It is, there
fore, in all likelihood due to the zeal Of
Wycliffe and his followers that we
owe the two noble Fourteenth century
TRANSACTIONS of the Bible which tradl-
ton has always associated with his
name, and which are the earliest COM
plete renderings that we possess Of
the Holy Scriptures into English. The
6rst Of these, the so-called early yer.
sion. was probably completed about
1882, at oil events before 1884. the
year Of Wycllfre's death. The second,
or later version, being thorough re-
vision Of tho first, is ascribed to the
year 1883 by Sir Frederic Madden
and Rev. Joshua Forshall In their
