AN URGENT MESSAGE RECEIVED
FROM KING GEOBWE.
GREECE REPLIES TO ULTIM1TUM.
He Declares That the Evacuation of Crete
Is Impossible Because Peace Re¬
mains Seriously Disturbed.
A cable dispatch was received by D.
N. Botassi, the Greek consul general
in New York Saturday morning from
M. Skouses, the minister of foreign
affairs, saying that Greece has cal led
out the reserves of the classes of 18Gh,
18G7, 1868, 186!), 1870, 1871, 1872 and
1873 and ordered them to join their re¬
spective regiments at once.
The consul is instructed to give im¬
mediate information to all of the con¬
suls of Greece iu the United States

RECEIVER REFUSED.
But an Injunction la.Grunted in tin A. &
W. P. Bailroad Case.
Judge Lumpkin of the superior
court at Atlanta das decided the At¬
lanta and West Point railroad case by
refusing the petition for a receiver, and
granting an injunction to prevent the
Atlanta and West Point Railroad com¬
pany and tho other defendant corpora¬
tions from carrying into effect the pro¬
visions of tho new charter by which the
company was authorized to borrow
money or encumber the yroperty.
The order also enjoins them from
carrying into effect any of the other
changes proposed by the new charter,
and it is decreed that the status of the
company shall not be changed until a
final decision is had, or until the fur¬
ther order of the court.
This is not a complete victory for
either side.

A serious blockade is on in South
Dakota. No trains have been moving
to watertown, Huron, Millbank and

ture, although there will be a bitter
fight against him by friends of Call.

PRESIDENT CALLS EXTRA SESSION
No Definite Reasons Are Given Why It
Should He Held.
President McKinley’s call for an ex¬
tra session of congress, which was
issued Saturday is much commented
upon, and its wording is being gener¬
ally analyzed and criticised.
President McKinley simply states
that the purpose of the call is “to re¬
ceive such communications as may be
made by the executive.” The call
reads as follows:
“By the President of the United
States of America: The proclamation.
"Whereas, Public ldterosts require that
tile congress of tho United States should bo
convened in extra session at 12 o’clock on
the 15th day of March, 1S97, to receive such

utive:
“Now, therefore, I, William McKinley,
president of tho United States of America,
do hereby proclaim and deelaro that an
extraordinary occasion requires tho con¬
gresses of the United States to convene in
extra session in the capitol, in tho city of
Washington, on tho 15tli day of March, 1897,
at 12 o’clock noon, of which all persons who
shall at that limo he entitled to act os mem¬
bers theroof, nro hereby required to tako
notleo.
“Given under my hand and tho seal of tho

“William McKinley.
“By the President, John Sherman, Secre¬
tary of State.”

All the Members of the Official Family
Take tho Oath.
All the members of the cabinet, with
the exception of Mr. Lyman J. Gage,
took the oath of office at the white
house at 11:30 o’clock Saturday. It
was a simple, but impressive ceremony.
All the members of the new cabinet
except Mr. Gage had assembled for
the ceremony in the president’s office.
Chief Justice Fuller and the justices
of the supreme court were assembled
in the Blue room. The president and
his advisers greeted the justices and
the formalities of administering the
oaths were begun at once.
Mr. Sherman, being the head of the
new cabinet, took the oath first, the
chief justice administering it while the
venerable statesman held up his right
hand and repeated the constitutional
obligation. Then followed tho other
cabinet officers in the order of
their rank. Justice Gray, of Mass¬
achusetts, administered tho oath
to John D. Long, the secretary of flie
navy, and also a citizen of the old Bay
state. For the same reason of locality
Justice Brown, formerly of Michigan,
administered the oath to Gen. Alger as
secretary of war. All the other oaths
were administered by the chief justice.
The new cabinet then separated with¬
out the formalities of a cabinet meet¬
ing.
Mr. Lyman J. Gage, of Chicago, took
the oath of office in the secretary’s office
in the treasury department at noon.
Chief Justice Fuller, of the supreme
court, another Chicagoan, administered
tho oath iu the presence of a distingu¬
ished company, which included the
relatives and friends of Mr. Gage, part
of tho Illinois delegation in congress
and the principal officials of the treas¬
ury.

ENGLISH P APER ON MESSAGE.
The London Chronicle Expresses Its Opin¬
ion of the Document.
The Chronicle says regarding Presi
dent McKinley’s message: “It is a
very safe utterance and will doubtless
commend its author to tho good opin¬
ion of the American public. It will
also confirm the estimates of other coun¬
tries that he is a very prudent man,
and has opinions on specific matters
of his own. The tone throughout is
good and manly. It is satisfactory to
notice that he promptly assumes moral
aud political responsibility for the ar¬
bitration treaty. We wish we could
believe the declaration against trusts
was more genuine than we fear it is.”

he found the e!lnp owner, with his spec¬
tacles astride his nose, pouring over
the aitllas, which was spread open on
the tabic before him.
“I'm gOad you’ve come In,” said he,
rising to grasp his guest's hand cor¬

may be able to help me about. I’ve

SIX WEEKS WITHOUT SLEEP.
A STRANGE EXPERIENCE RELATED
RY MRS. MORRIS GAIHN.
Site Was In Torturo for Weeks—Excracl.
atlng Pains Made Her Lite a Burden
•--All Rent Over and Helpless.
From the New Era, McMinnMUe, Tcnn.
Three miles southeast of tho lovely little
city of McSlimivillo, Tennessee, nostlingat
tho foot of tho beautiful and grand “Ben
Lomond" mountain, nro many pretty and
comfortable homes—locatod on fertile lands
and shadod by grand and majestic forest
trees.
In this locality Mrs. Morris Gnffln lives,
with her sods, in comfort and contentment.
Understanding that Mrs. GafTin had teen
greatly benefited by tho use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, a reporter of tho MeMinuville
New Era sought an interview. With this
purpose hi view a vis.t was made to the
home of Mrs. Gatlin, and she was found to be
one of those pleasant little women whom one
meets with, now an.l then, in the constantly
recurring changes in life. She cave tho re¬
porter a cordial welcome, and upon learning
the object ofthe unexpected call, she bright¬
ly why resjionded: I should object "Well, to X know interview of no reason if the
au
report is not exaggerated. I am personally
indebted to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and if
my testimony can be the means of helping
some one else who suffers as I suffered I
surely ought not to withhold it.
“A year ago last October I caught a severe
cold which resulted in rheumatism in my left
side, causing me a great deal of suffering. I
used plasters and home remedies, but ob¬
tained very little relief until the January
following. I did not suffer this severe pain
any more until March. Iu stooping a terrible
pain struck meri.ht in the small of the baok.
and in a few seconds had branched down my
left side, extending even to my toes. X had
to call my son to assist mo into the house,
and from that time tho pain was a rnost restful un¬
bearable. For six week I had no
sleep. During that time X used all tho old
remedies and mauy new ones, evensmding
to Chicago for medicines, but none of them
did me imy good. I was all bent over and
drawn up until I could scarcely got about at
all, nnd oh! how I did suffer!
"Finally, ono day, I told my son when he
started to town, to bring me a box of Dr.
Williams’ Ptuk Pill-; that I had triod every¬
thing else,and they mignt do me some good.
He brougnt the box and 1 at once began to
use them according to directions, and I be¬
gan to Improve by the time I had taken the
fourth or fifth pill, and when X had
finished the box I was entirely relieved, and
could walk about as erect as ever. But I
sent for another box. That was in June of
last year, and I have never had a pain since.
Every morning when I awake I am thankful
and think h w good it is to lie in such com¬
fort. I thank Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for the
wonderful relief they brought me.
"Did you ever have the toothache?” she
asked. "Well, if you have, you will know
something about tho pain I had. It was
nothing more or less than a toothache in the
hip—it was an excruciating paiu.”
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a
condensed form, all tho elements necessary
to give new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They nro an un¬

Pill Clothes.
The good pill has a good coat. The pill coat
serves two purposes; it protects the pill, en¬
abling it to retain all its remedial value, and it
disguises the taste for the palate. Some pill
coats are too heavy; they will not dissolve in
the stomach, and the pills they oover pass
through the system as harmless as a bread
pellet. Other coats are too light, and permit the
speedy deterioration of the pill. After 30 years
exposure, Ayer’s Sugar Coated Pills have been
found as effeotive as if just fresh from the labor¬
atory. It’s a good pill with a good coat. Ask
your druggist for
