COMPARISON OF FIGHTINGS STRENGTH, Turkey Compared. The nominal strength of the army of Greece, according +o the returns for 1895, 1g as follows: 1,88) offisers, 22,997 men, total 24,877; 3,739 horses and mules and 126 guns, On the war footing no force could be mobilized to 100,000 men, The reserve forces alone give a total of 101,- 500 men, and bebind these is what is ealled the territorial army, numbering 146,000. The navy consists of five ar mour clad veasel-, 17 torpede boats, 2 corvettes, 2 cruiser2,12 gunboats, 3 re- veaue vessels. The personnel! of tae nave includes 185 offizers, 247 employes, 587 petty officers, 1,643 sailors, 503 stoker-, tota] 3,160 men. In Turkey al] Mussulmans over 20 years of age are liable to military service, this continuing for 20 years. The whole empire is divided into seven army districts. The effective combatant service of the Turkish army is as follows: infantry 583,- 208 men, cavalry 55,300 men, artillery 1356 guns and 54,720 men, engineers 7400 inen, total 70,620 men. The navy is in great part ao obsolete fighting force. Three ships only can now be counted as seagoing armour clads of fighting valur; the rest belong to the class of coust defence vessels, being small and old. The ships are as follows: 1 first class battle ship one third class, 7 port defence ships, 9 second clas cruisers, 50 third class cruisers, 25 torpedo crafts. The nominal strength in men is six vice admiral’, 11 rear admirale, 208 captains, 289 commanders, 228 lieutenants, 187 ensigns and 30,000 sailors, besides about 9000 marines.

He says the walls sre sound up to the second storey, and will not need rebuilding. To make the block fireproof the wooden partitions will have to be re placed by metal, and to complete the work will require six months. Nothing is said aboutthe cost.

The Senate of the United States con- tains a good many Christians of the Danie! stripe. A Gloucester despatch of the Ith says: The bakery of N. M. Wohnson has been closed because a skunk has established himself under the build:ng and the charac- teristic odor has permeated the place so strongly that it was impossible for the em- plo-es to remain inside. Efforts made to dislodze the foe were futile, it not being possible to discover his exact whereabouts and the garrison retired. : Tne departmental report on the burning of tre Westero Block would indicate that Cttawa’s fire brigade needs reorganization. Ottawa papers, which are discassing the mi ter, appear to agree in this respect with the departmental officers, though it is not plain whether the fault les with the head of the brigade or the City Coancil or coun- cillors. A fire brigsde is an institution that is peculiarly liable to becom: defec-— tive, unless it is constantly watched. If the official reports are correct, the end of the Caban rebellien is in sight.

And now it is said the rebel army, under General Maximo Gomez, is in fall retreat befure the continued advance of Captain- Geveral Weyler through Puerto Priocipe and in the direction ot the capital of that vrovince. General Calixto, Gomez’s second in command, was reported as_re- trea ing towards the same point. The Spasuards are over-rurning these eastern pro: inces again.

Minister of the Interior, a few days ago and discussed the subj-ct of eda- cation iu certain of the Indian Industrial Schools of the Northwest Territories which come under the care of the Method- ist Uhurea, It was represented to the Minister that the Mounted Polive authori- ties should receive instructions to guard more against the sale of liquor in Northern British Columbia. An instance was cited of a little hamlet called Casiar, inhabited by a Chinese and ten whites, where six saloops are in full blast, with a most demoral z ng effect upon the Indians of the district. The idea that things are not happy in South Africa will be strengthened by what Mr. Rhodes said before the Parliamentary committee which is investigating the cir- cumstances connected with the Jameson raid. It is impossible, he declared, for the present state of affairs to continue. That means a great deal, and it only voices what the English newspapers of the Trans- vaal are saying with as much openness as they dare. ‘aglishmen who go into the Boer Republic know the conditions that exist there, and that they are practically deprived of the privileges, while assuming all the burdens of citizenship.

A scene was created in the house of commons & few days ago by Mr. John Burns, Socialist member of the Battersea. The occasion was the debate of a proposal to erect a new ball for the uee of the Lon- don county council. In the course of the discussion, Mr. Burns, himself a m mber of the county council, made an attack upon the Pall Mail Gazette, which news- p2per is owned by Mr. William Waldorf Astor, because of its opposition to the pro- posal. ‘The opposition of the paper to the erection of a new building on the site of the present one, he said, was purely in the interest of Mr. Astor, whose house adj pinad the council building.

The lsgerstrcemia is named in honor of Magnus Lagerstrom of Gothenburg. Tho cundytuft owes its nams to the iweetness of the blossoms and their pecu)- iar habit of growing hin clusters, The four o'clock takes its popular name from its time of opening. On unelouded days this flower opens with tolerable reg- ularity at about 4 in the afternoon. Tropwolum, a variety of nasturtium, has its uame from a Greek word signify- ing ‘‘a trophy’ —the leaves resembling a buckler and the flowers an empty helinet. The violet has retained its name almost unchanged from the Latin. Under the name viola it is found in Virgil and other writers op rural and sentimental subjects. The alyssum derives its name from two Greek words signifying *‘to allay anger.” Tho flower was popularly supposed in en- cient times to possess the power of calming angry passions. The lady’s slipper has its pop ar kame from a fanciful resemblance in form to a slipper. Its kotanical name, cy pripedium, comes from two Greek words imsening Venus’ slipper. The morning glory has its name frora two Saxon words signifying the glory or brightness of the morning, an allusion to the fact that tl.is flower blooms during the early morning hours. One extra good winter piooming fuchsia is speciosa. Given a large pot, light fibrous soil of leaf mold and sand, good drainage and plenty of water at the roots and overbead, it will make rapid growth nnd flower abundantly from January u April without cessation. t DROPPED DEAD! Suddenly Stricken own by Heart Dis ease. “a sad and sadden death occurred te a well-known citizen on one of the lead ing streets this morninc.” Nearly every large city paper com tains daily some such heading. ‘he aumber of deaths from heart failure is very large, but it is only when they occur in some public and sensational manne that general attention is drawn to them. Palpitation and fluttering of the heart are common complaints. With the heart itself there is nothing radically wrong. But the system is disorgan- the kidneys and liver are out of order, and the stomach is not in con- dition to do its work porperly. Be- tween them all, they throw too much responsibility on the heart, and the letter is unable to stand the strain. A box of Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills at a cost of 25 centa will regulate the system, purify the blood and make a new person of every sickly man, womaas or child.
