While the riots in and about Calcut- ta have been suppressed a very un- easy feeling prevails.

CONSTANTINE DEPENDED - The Fighting itt ureece Lilieucd to the Frauce'Gcrutrtu War in 1870. M. Antoine Vlasto, a Greek by birth, but a naturalized citizen of France and a well-known Paris financier, has just returned from the seat of war between Greece and Turkey, and been interview- ed b Re S by a reporter of the Gaulais makes some interesting statements, among them the following: It was at Dhomoko that 1 joined the array. It rained all that day and, all that night. The poor soldiers were without shelter. Nevertheles't, they were gay. They had fought. t he day before and were to fight again the next day. The Greeks, in reality, are admir- able soldiers. Men like them, if they were only properly officered, would be capable of anything in the field, They have simply been the victims of their defective armament and of their nu'm- erica'l inferiority. Almost every morn- ing and afternoon, in the beginning of the campaign, they won victoria,. They performed splendid feats of bravery. At Velestino, for instance, the Greek in- fantry allowed the Turks to couae with- in 100 ntetses of then' without firing a shot. Then they mowed theta down The first day at Velestino was aGreek victory. There were 8,000 Greeks. en- gaged,' and 4,000 Turks were stretched upon the field of battle. As a report- er of the Daily Telegraph told rue, one might fanny that it was A FIELD OF RED POI'Pll-.S on account of t number of Turkish fezes that dotted the ground. But when evening arrived and the tareeks, worn out and harassed, expected to rest in the raptured positions, a. new Turkish army appeared, perfectly fresh and just as numerous as the first one whish was twice cis nuznerous as that of the Greeks. Nothing remained to be dobe but sound the retreat. "Now, add to this the wretched arm- ament., of which 1 will give you only one detail. The Greeks had only No. 5 and No. 7 pieces, which carried 2.500 metres. The Turks had No. 11 pieces, carrying 4,000 and 5,000 metres; so that as Prince Constantine told me, it was useless to continue the fight at Phar - sale. ' 11-1y soldiees,' said he, ' were mew- ed down by the Turkish artillery while 1 could see aur own shots dropping ful- ly 1,000 metres in (rout of the Turkish lines: ' 1 saw Prince Constantine and spoke with him at length upon the misfor- tunes of our ccuniry. He is a young man, full of courage and moral ener- gy, but he was broken down, like the others, by circumstances. It is hardly necessary for me to say that all the stories that have been told about him are not only false but ridiculous. From Larissa he set out on horseback with (his army and only ordered a retreat when the public became general and af- ter he had done all that he possibly could do to overcome it. And what sort of army did he have? Heroes in- ' dividually, no doubt, but wretchedly commanded raw recrults wanting al- most in everything, in a military sense. ' At Dhomoko 1 met Capt. Burley, the correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph. M.T. Burlay has been in all the campaigns of Europe in the past twenty-eight yeauls. He was in theme' of 1870, the Turco -Russian war, in Ma- dagascar, and all the other important fights. This is what he said to me: The disasters of the Greeks recall to my mind the disasters of the French in 1870. There was the same 1NDIVIDCTAL COURAGE the same incompetence on the part of the Generals, the same numerical in- feriority, and the same daily results - victory in the morning, rout in the ev- ening. Now it is said everywhere that the victory of Turkey is a German vic- tory. Diplomatioaliy it may be, per- haps, because it well probably bring about the union of Germany and Rus- sia, which will make them the masters of the Bosporus. But from a military point of view you should see for your- self. The Turks, superior in number, better armed and better officered, have been victorious. But one thing made a great impression upon me. 1 was in the wale of 1877. and saw the whole of it, but in this present war the Turk appeared to me to be inferior as at sol- dier to what he was before. He is and always will be a good soldier, certain- ly ; but under the German discipline he appears to have lost. his dash. It seems to me that the German teaching in the Turkish army has been the commence- ment, not of decadence, but of some diminution in the value of the Turkish soldier. You who have seen the Greek army can never conclude that .it was crushed by the greatness of the Turks:" The, foe• rirrilo signet:us of Is an ev re lee( tvra$;l,r. The Same...

Well, we're 'much in the condition of the Bishop and the raspberry: "Doubtless, " he said, "God might have made a better berry. But doubtless, also, He never did." Why don't we better the sarsaparilla? We can't.. We are using the same old plant that cured the Indians' and the Spaniards. it has not been bettered.

A despatch from London says: -One of tilt. most important political inci- dents connected with the jubilee con- cerns the, relations between Creat Britain and Japan. The latter coun- try, sines her wear with China, has assumed all the dignity and preroga- tives of a great power. Now, with proud humility, she confesses that she needs a European ally, preferably Great Britain. Thais Government has been repeatedly approacahed during the past year with a. view to the eonehr- 1 sion of an Anglo -Japanese allianee. The matter was discussed at an interview of the Mikado's jubilee Envoy with.: Lord Salisbury on Monday. The British Premier does not favour ' alliances prior to war, but be is very fond of "understandings," and there ' is gond reason to believe that he has arrived. at an understanding with.pu- 1 pan, which would be converted into an actual defensive and offensive alliance should trouble takelace between Eng- , land and Russia whlieh might happen at any moment. It was therefore in accordance with the. fitness of things ':het Japan made a brave show at the jubilee naval re- i view. She was represented bygone of i the finest battleships anchored atSpit- head, and the officers and men sof no foreign wa.rehip walked about Ports-: mouth with a finer swagger and in snore gorgeous plumes than the little slaps. MR. GRlATF13AR TO PHILIP. "Philip," said 112r. Gratebar, " the i man that gets the furthest in this world i is the man that keeps moving. This may seem like a self-evident truth, . but there are, nevertheless, many persons who do not seem to realize it. Many a rich prize in life has been lost by sheer laziness. i ess. moving, Philip.

Another class of men who watch sheep are those who do it for their health. Dozens of men claim to have been cur- ed of consumption simply by putting in several months at watching sheep. The work gives what is most required in the deadly disease -plenty of fresh air, moderate exercise, and employment that is not wearing on the brain, but is still enough to keep it occupied and prevent nervousness. Of course, if a man has plenty of money, he can get these things without herding sheep, but there are many men who need them badly who have no money, and all who have taken advantage of this knowledge have surely been benefitted. A. num- ber of men who have taken up sheep herding have become so fascinated with it that they have stur'k to it long after they got over the trouble. An eminent physiologist asserts that the weight of a woman's brain de- creases after the age of thirty, while that of a pian does not decrease until ten years later. rCA I .
