PECULIAR LEGISLATION. One of the most peculiar laws prob- ably ever enacted by a government was paesed by the Hardy Government just prior to prorogation. In passing as Lord's Day Bill, Hamilton, Windsor and Toronto are allowed to run street ears on Sunday. That is the objection- able feature 1£ right,;to run ears in Hamilton, why wrong to do then same in London and Brantford ? If the Gov- ernment of Ontario think it is its duty to look after public morals and public religion,.then why in the name of con- atstt' .cy, make fish of one and flesh of another? Has a legislature any right to make a Sodom and Gomorrah of `Tier lute and Hamilton, and pattern New Jttrusalerns out of the other Ontario cities and niters, If this is not tiasl Iegtslat10!), thea what is? The eh-san*i'. .thserdity and injustice of albs taut shows th.' great mistake of else lt';:ielatttre', tuner. to rule the trier els and religion of a country.

Constantinople, April 17. Following. the news of the incursion by the Greeks on Turkish territory the Council of Min- isters at the Palace to -day recalled the General Assembly, gave passports to Prince Mavrocordato, the Greek Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipoten- tiary, and ordered 1 dhem Pasha, the Turkish nlilittuy commander, to take the offensive. No actual declaration of war has been made. A detailed cu c ular sent this evening to the Turkish representatives presentatives abroad re- ealls the week's invasions, and states that the newest incursion was partici- pated in by the Greek troops, which tlirreforo establishes that war has broken elft. The circular expresses the hope that the powers in .a spirit of justice will agree that the entire responsibility for the war falls on Greece. Turkey has no idea of conquest, and as a fresh proof of pacific sentiments offers to retire the Turkish trove can the frontier if Greece will retire leer, from the frontier and from crew, London. April 18.—The Greco -Turkish Situ etr 1n is understood here to be sub- stantially 1111 as follows. War has not olAci:111 1 .•n c1 .la:'sel 1eitwetn Turkey an -i Greets-, eee.-, but it has been declared of]leiatlly to have '.broken out," The Turkish Cabinet has decided to sever diplomatic relations with Greece, and `las ordered. Edhein Pasha, the com- mander tf. too Turkish forcers, to take the offensive. It is t' 1 idered in London that wear between 'turkey and. Greece has actually begun, the Turkish declare - tion that war has ',broken out" being merely for the purpose of diplomatically putting the orals of the war upon the Kingdom of ('Alice. GREE!i MINISTER I)IS'MISSED. C:•a. ntiuttili', April 18, -- Tetvflk Pasha, the Turkish Minister for Foreign Affars, visited the foreign Envoys yes- . rthey and infuriate' them that the Turk- ish frontier had been crossed on Friday night with fresh bands of Greeks, among whom were a number of Greek regulars. It was this news which led to the call- ing in�, of a Council of Ministers and precip- itated the decision to announce that war luta broken out between Greece and Tur- key. The Greek :Minister here, Prince Mav roeordirto, was at the sante trine notified of tho rupture of diplomatic relations between 'Turkey and Greece. His pass- port. were handed to him, and he will leave Constantinople. At t4ie salve time the archives of the Greek Legation will be removed. Izt addition, all the Greek merchants in Turkey were notified to leave the Ottoman Empire. OFFICIAL ANNOU.NCEMENT. Athens, April 15.—A Iate special sit- ting of the Legislative Assembly was held today. The public galleries were crowd- ed. Aurid intense excitement M. Dely- nnnis, the Premier, announced that the Turkish Government had to -day notified Greece of the rupture of diplomatic rela- tions on the ground of the aggressive at- titude of the Greek Government. In a cool lent most deliberate speech he re- viewed the recent events to show, on the contrary, that Turkey had been the aggressor, that her troops had attacked the Greeks and attempted to occupy neutral positions, and that her batteries at Prevosa had sunk the Greek ship Macedonia. "Turkey," said M. Delyan- nis, "declares war against us. We accept it." This statement was received with prolonged cheers from the galleries and the floor of the Chamber. The Premier then read despatches reciting the events which had happened on the frontier, and with reference to the reported cap- ture of Menexa he said that the batteries at that important position had been brought into action, but be knew noth- ing as to its alleged capture. He added that the Turks, after repeated attempts to force a passage at Revini, which com- mands the road to Larissa, had been driven back. The leader of the Opposi- tion, amici renewed cheers from all parts of the Chamber and from the galleries, eloquently endorsed the patriotic declara- tions of the Premier. A Bold Man. Rev. H. A. Macpherson, the newly inducted pastor of Knox church Acton. has b: ought upon himself some pretty strong criticism by his sermons on amnia+ mint the other Suuday night The following is taken from the Acton Free Press. The rev. gentleman expressed his ad- miration for athleti' sports, stating that personally he lover baseball. He hoped the game would be continued there notwithstanding the objections of some straight-laced people. But he exhorted the young people who participated in the game to make it a. gamecharacter- ized by purity of speech and action; to beware of professionalism, and to be. careful when they go to have contests in other towns not to mar the good name of the town they . represent by liceutiousness or other unseemly con. duet. Referring to other amusements the preacher placed its the category of innocent pastiches, which might he en• joyed with proper restraiut dancing. oa.trd•playing, the manly art -sparring —the theatre, etc., but drew a line def initely at horse -racing and low down operas. In; all these amusements, whether in games on the green or at eyenie , parties, there should be, he said, a studious care not to come in contact with the weekly prayer meat ings or other services of the church, so that those who usually, attend these meetings may not at any time be hin- dered from being present, The Nova Scotia general election took place Tuesday.

HOLDING MILOUNA PASS. Elassona, April 20.—The Turkish forces, as this despatch is being forward- ed, are holding their positions in the Minutia pass, During the severe fighting which began on Sunday evening, Greeks and Turks alike fought and behaved most admirably. It is believed that the battle whicoi is now in progress will be of a decisive character. Turkish reports just received say the whole of the Milouna pass is new in possession of the Turks, who carried' Greek block -houses at the point of the bayonet. Late last night information received from the front announced that the Turks ocoupied the whole extent of the Milouna pass, and all the.commanding heights from Meekche'to Papalyvava, as well as all the defiles. ' The Turkish losses thus far are reported to he slight, 30 killed and 50 wounded. The correspondent of the Associated Press counted 100 Greek corpses on the hill opposite the Turkish position. The Turks declare that the Greeks were drunk during the lighting yesterday, be- ing constantly supplied with .liquor.

The Latest News in Brief. IVORY WANTS DAMAGES, Demands a Hundred housand Dollars From LrugTlend. Washington, April 19. --Edward J. Ivory, who was arrested in England last fall on the charge of conspiring to destroy public buildings and highways by means of dynamite, has prepared aboiub for the British Government in the shape of ti claim for $100,000, which he has asked mthe State Department to press for pay - According to the memorial which has been submitted to the departrneut, 'Ivory left New York on August 17 last for England. Later he went to Glasgow, where he was captured on September 7. His trial followed on January 22 and 23, and on the latter day the prosecuting solicitor informed The presiding justice that there was absolutely no evidence against Ivory, and requested that the case against him be dismissed. For his detention and incarceration in prison ivory declares that $100,000 dam- ages is a reasonable sum for Great Bri- tain to pay. His purpose in going abroad was a peaceful one, and he had no con- nection whatever with any plot to use dynamite. Proofs arc presented that Ivory is an American citizen. When Secretary Sherman first exam- ined the claim, it is understood that he was inclined to believe that it was per- fectiy just. Tho record of the case, how- ever, has shown developments which may vitiate the claim. Mr. Bayard closely watched the precet`dings in Ivory's ease, and found that they were being conduct- ed in a legal manner. The British au- thorities gave the prisoner all the means possible for his defence, allowing him. counsel, permission to discuss his case with the attorneys, and to collect evi- dence in his own belief.
