The unreal which few vmU bM been smoldering In Greece has at last burst into (lame and a series of startling devel opments is reported In dispatches to day. v ' ? *< Having apparently failed in his ut most efforts to influenee King Con stantino in tavor of hostilities a gainst the Central Empires, former Premier VenleU^R* the Allies' "strong man" in Greece, hus left Athens. He is reported to have reached Salonlkl and, it is said, will head the growing revolutionary movement in "Mace donia and Crete. ' Vo nieslos is expected to visit Crete AIT Crete is In rebellion. Thirty thousand armed revolutionists have seised control of the Island and have occupied the citlep of Canea, the cap ital, Keraclton and other coast towns. The Government buildings at Canen have been seized and the Govern mental representatives expelled. Accompanying- Venteslos on his Jourdey from Athens are Rear Ad miral Condouriotis, the commander in-chief of the navy, and officers of( his staff, as well as sixty-nine of the eighty members of the King's famous Cretan jguard. Only eleven of this royal troop remained loyal. The King's summer palace at Tatol is being guarded by 6,000 loyal troops. The King is still ill and confined to his bed. The London Daily Telegraph has received a dispatch from its corres pondent at Athesn, G. J. Stevens, de claring that Veniselos has agreed to | i lead the revolutionary movement. HORSE RAISERS MJH MONEY (By United Press) Chicago. Sept. 17. ? The European war has caused such a scarcity of horses In the United States that far mers who raise the adaptable Bel gUfta, whose weight range from 1200 to 1500 pounds, makes It an excel lent cavalry or police riount. are putting a high price on thle animals, which at the present tlmfe Is being accepted by the horse dealer. While thousands of Percherons and Belgians, weighing from 1500 ^Oj 1800 pounds are st present employed in drawing cannon and ammunition wagons on the battlefields, they are not so commonly used here as the lighter animal. A cross betwoen Percheron stock and the American horses makes an almost ideal general purpose animal, and a well matched team will bring- from 9500 -to $600, where formerly a teajn could be pur chased at 9300 to 9900. There is no importation of horses at ttfls time and therefore, American farmers are short of the adaptable Belgians, which in part accounts for the in creased value. MEXICAN TIME Mf ANS JUST ANY OLD TIME (By United Press) New London. Conn., Sopt. 27.?: "You will please come over to din ner at 2 o'clock." The speaker Is an American. The polite Mexican answers: **Do you mean Mexican or English time." Tou mean Ehgllsh time. So the Mexican will be st dinner be twoen 2 and 2 p. m. But If, inad vertently, you should designate "Mex ican time," the invited guest would appoar anytlnfe between 2 p. m. and 9 p. ra. That is "Mamma" ? tomor row ? and It Is so typical that a Mex ican scorns another who realises that "punctuality -is the politeness of kings" Admlnfaitrator'R Notice.

The Ger man merchant submarine Bremen has been captured by the English and la now tied up In Falmouth Harbor, according to Dr. H. Talt McKenzie, sculptor and director or the depart ment of phyalcal education In the University of Pennaylvanla. He re turned today to thla city after slx teen months in a training camp at Aldershot, outside of London. Dr. McKenzie. who has been given the rank of major by the English, aa!d he heard the story of the Bre men'a capture Just before he sailed from Liverpool for New York. He added: "The story reached me from a very reliable source. The Bremen is said to have a cargo vhlued at $25,000, 000. consisting of dye stuffs and dia monds. 1 heard of the capture thru a prominent diamond expert in Lon don, who was called in by the Brit ish Government to estimate the value of the diamonds in the cargo. He told me he knew some of the dia monds were famous precious stones that belonged In Germany." QUITE A MEAL, EVEN FOR STEWARD'S CLUB ? r ( By rfnrefrpr?fir"i i Pittsburgh, Sept. 27- ?

LESS TOBWO IS SOU) IN CREENViLlE (Greenville Reflector) The tobacco sales for the pant few days have been rather light, and as a consequence the buyers have been able to cat^h up with their work in the factories, and- to work, up all the tobacco on hand. They are now in shape, and all are eager to buy. BILLY WOl TO BE HERE TOI4RROW The past season has developed- an entirely new form of theatrical en tertainment. It Is nothing elite than a muslscl farce. 8omeoue conceived the Idea of taking a brisk rarce. bringing It up-to-date, and Interpol ating musical numbers. The Idea proyed an Immediate success.

'j Hugh* last night made a remark- J able* uswer to Prealdant Wilaon'a Shade* Lawn apeech of last Satur day evening defending the Adamaon j eighl-ttour law. In effect he aasert-j ed thA? lr. Mr. Wllaon'a teadeaelee *| continue he might aa well be. elected dicta tflfer,of the nation. * j Haafin^' hla reply on a declaration j that thpre had' been too much legia 1 at ton by thia Adminiatration in volving- compromise phrases. appar ently, i^cuded to giean one thing to oae to gyt their votea, and anothfl^lbljig to another aet of men 1 I to. allay their feart. Hughea asserted j that elvll war Ilea along the Unea of auch legislation aa the Ad&mson act. He confuted: "Let no one confuse the American mind aa to the principle of legisla tive action. It haa been tho same since legislatures first began to sit and rliope It will remain the aame us long as we continue to have leg islative action In thia country. "Indeed, If It ia abandoned you might as well wind up your republic and appoint a dictator, letting him be appointed who haa the greateat force ty exert to compel obedience to | his demanda." PRETTY GIRLS AND OTHERS After 4'1' **?? ?n* Who la "Nloew la Apt to Be the Moet Popular With Everybody: We. all know the old Joke of the pretty girl who la ^reaented aa saying to the homely girl, "It'a too bad not to be good looking, Isn't It?" and the homely girl'a response: "Tea, because one has to be nice, and that'a hard; j ?did you every try it?" Of oourse we enjoy the reply, espe cially an we know how much greater the Impression that is made by being nice, tho Milwaukee Journal observes. The jfraty girl who doesn't think this necessary Is away behind the homely girl who has really learned to be what we defcribe ao aatlsfactorily and in- 1 definitely by the word "nice.* But do we ever think of thla aa one of the definite accomplishments of life that can be acquired, not so easily per hap* ??-f r>f m jilt, tory, but Just aa surely? Every day rte moot aomoone, often several per sona. whoae Uvea exemplify the beauty of being nice. Very soon we learn to know them and we are ready almost without thinking to go a little out o! tho way to aee that we do meet them. They^are not all homely girla; some of them a'-* "retty, and many of them aren'' .* all. Most of them ai-j ways to be "nice" by nature. I But anyone with an atom of Justice In his masoning knows that at some time and probably often, there has come to these persona who make life bright* er the queatlon. "Doea It pay?" Maybe they never really proved that it did That doesn't matter ao much, for they have kept on with the cheery look, the pleasant groetlng, the friend liness and graclousness that are the world's greateat Joy bringers. And that l* enough to make them far better remembered and far more beloved than if they had been named the reign ing beauties of their day.
