It is j probable that Grown Prince Constahtine and Prince George both belong to the order. They were born in Greece. Only native Greeks can become members of the society. This hs why King George is not a member, and this fact gives rise to the talk about his abdi cation in favor of Crown Prince Con stantine. King George is popular and is in the prime oflife.- There is no other reason for his. abdi cation except this! tremendous power of the Hetaeria, or National League.

Portsmouth was visited early this morning by a disastrous lire, which destroyed prop erty valued at between $150,000 and $200,000, 'consisting' of a Catholic church, two public halls and twenty seven dwellings. Most of the latter were frame structures As a result of the conflagration aqo persons are homeless to-day. ' '' At 3:35 the fire was gotten under control- Fully fifty, houses in differ ent parts of the city caught from flying sparks and cinders, but were saved by by prompt action of bucket brigades. There , were no fatalities so Lr as known. The Catholic church was valued at about $60,000. The insurance upon all the property burned will probably not aggregate more than $50,000. A N Correspondent Kilted. Keportccl Washington, March ,2g. Consul General Lee has sent the State De partment the following telegram : "Havana, March 28. Mr. C. E. Crosby ; of New York, representative or the Chicago Record, is reported to nave been killed while watching with field glasses a' combat between Span ish and insurgent forces near Arrayo Blanco, close to the boundary of Puerto Principe and Santa Clara.

The ftag borne by the regiment commanded in person by the Crown Prince Concstantine. of Greece, who has just gone to the frontier, is the one unfurled by Germanos, archbish op of Patras, April 5th, 1S21. in the romantic and beautifully situated i' monastery of; Wagaspoleon, near that city- In-times" of peace this relic is kept with a group of other blood stained fUgs near the throne room of the Palace at Athens. I saw it last tall. Germanos belonged to the Na- or Hetaeria, an organ- forced the present crisis and which extends wherever Greeks live. This league has -50,000 members, near and within the. walls of Constan tinople, and a declaration of war means death to the Sultan and de struction to Constantinople." Russia's spies have kept more closely in touch with this powerlul society than the j King of Greece or any European power.' ;. A Russian nobleman travels incognito continually in the Levant and has several bright young men to make report to him. Sometimes his headquarters are on the island ot Zante,' sometimes in Petra, Athens or Constantinople. Archbishop Germa nos was moved to unfurl that flag by the folllowing circumstance : For thirteen years the Suliotes, under Marcos Bozzaris had been fighting AH Pasha, just as the Sphakiotes in Crete have been fighting for cen turies. Theyf won a victory which infuriated the Sultan, and to avenge it he killed all the ' learned young Greeks, who, on account of their ac complishments, had been appointed interpreters in his palace. After murdering these young Greeks, the Sultan ordered the Patriarch of Con stantinople, the ranking prelate in the Greek Church to .be killed and his head to be hung on a hook fastened in the walls of the city. The order better 'than I)elyannis, the present Prime Minister. . I have heard a tourist say that if Dr. Quinn were ever to 'be appointed minister to Greece (and he is not an applicant, being a Democrat and the head of l r the. Greek department at the Uni versity) the army of Greece would be called out to welcome him to her shores. , He has done more lor Greece than any other American, and is now aiding. her cause in more ways than one. . ; ' :!

The Government Weather Depart- j ment has taken up and investigated the subject of the relation between humidity of the air and cotton manu facture. One of the essential condi tions to the greatest degree of suc cess in spinning and weaving fine cotton fabrics is a humid atmosphere and the' more constant the degree of humidity the : greater the measure of profitable spinning, especially as re gards the finer members. The aver age spinning of England is said to be finer than that of the United States, and the average of the latter varies greatly with the geographical location, the finer spinning being done almost wholly in New England. It is suggested in a bulletin issued by the department, treating the subject fully, that the control of temperature and humidity by artificial means seems to offer the final solution cf the problem in all cases where the establishment of mills in a relatively dry district is contemplated.
