BULGARIAN INDUSTRY. RY.-Among the Bull
garians woman is the mans equal, his part
ner and helpmeet, just as she is in England
and the United States. They have adopted
from the Servians the best features of the
Communal system, but not the Communal
tenure of property which still prevails in
parts of Servia. While every mans prop
erty is his own, the feeling of Communal
interest is highly developed, and finds ex-
preston in practical life. Industry and thrift
are their most marked characteristics Yet
because they are religious and conscien-
tiously keep all the Church days, which
number one hundred and eighty during the
year, some travellers have described them
as idle. Their frugality almost amounts to
fault. Their skill in handiwork and the
mechanic arts, and even in engineering, has
attracted general attention and even admira-
ton. One specimen Of engineering work
has become famous 1t is the stone bridge
over the Jantra at Bela, a structure of un-
usual interest and beauty, even when COM
pared with the best bridges elsewhere. 1t has
fifteen circular arches, with hollow piers
which are arched at the topin such pecu-
liar way that they produce a very light and
graceful appearance. 1t is the work of a
selftaught Bulgarian. Herr Kanitz, who is
the ultimate authority on all matters re-
lating to this country, made the acquant-
ance of the builder and found him distin-
guished from his simplest townsmen nei-
ther in dress nor manner National Re
