AMERICAN MISSIONARIES IN
TROUBLE.

American missionaries in Bulgaria are
having some peculiar difficulties, and the
revolutionary turmoil is not favorable
to their labors. Perhaps there is no
good reason to be surprised at the fact
that missionaries in that country are
rather less happy now than they were in
the days when the Moslem was dom.
inant. 1t may sound odd that Christian
missionaries should be worse off in any
country in proportion to the degree in
which Christianity becomes the dominant
faith of the country; but viewing all the
facts it is what enc might fairly expect.
With the Moslem dominant in all the
lands between the Sultan and the Gar,
there was a very practical liberation for
all forms of Christianity, because any
persecution embroiled the Sultan with
his %neighbors. Persecution came from
time to time when fanatieism broke
loose; but those occasions were rare.
Under the Ottoman rule, therefore. the
missionaries worked freely in Bulgaria,
because a quasi federation was a national
policy, and the American Christian was
safe from the Christian of another re-
ligion because order was kept between
Christians of different religions by officials
whom each looked upon as heathens.
But the heather has been suppressed,
and the order he kept has been swept
away as a relic Of evil days. The Greek
Christian is dominant, and he does not
want any Protestant missionaries around.
He regards them from the level of his
religion somewhat in the spirit in which
our churches look upon the Salvation
army. and as there is q union of Church
and State the priests of the Oriental
ritual stir up authority to make things
unpleasant for missionaries who are, as
they hold. tampering with the faith of
the people.

Vice Admiral Stephen G. Rowan was
recently interviewed on the subject Of
torpedoes, and his views are interesting
at this time, when our Navy and coast
defenses are being as freely discussed.
The Admiral, who, it will be remem.
berej, had a practical experience with
torpedoes during the wal, does not be.
lieve that men-of.war are in danger OF
being blown up by torpedo boats, an
adjunct to European Navies, which has
involved great expense, and which were
expected to revolutionize naval warfare.
He says they have not come up to ex.
pectations, and that a ship ION which
there is . vigilant watch, and which is
provided with MEETINGS and electric
lights, is in no danger. When Charleston
was bombarded it was Admiral Rowan
who first practically applied MEETINGS as
o torpedo defense, and although they
were not as perfect as those of to-day
and he had no electric lights to make
every object visible within a mile or two,
torpedoes did him no harm. When it
was suggested to him that in the Turco-
Russian war the Russians, torpedo boats
did great execution, Admiral Rowan &C
counted for it by saying that while
Hobart Pasha was undoubtedly a brave
and efficient commander, yet he could not
diffuse his spirit throughout the fleet.
1t is the Admiral's opinion that sub.
marine torpedoes would prove q very
dangerous and difficult obstruction to an
enemy entering a harbor, and that it is
as defensive weapons they are most use
full. If submarine boats like the
Nautilus and Peacemaker can be per.
fected so as to be brought properly
under control and can discharge their
torpedoes with accuracy, they will, ne
thinks, be able to annihilate the most
powerful vessels afoat, because there
will be no means Of knowing their prox'
unity or guarding against their attacks.
Dirigible balloons are not regarded
with much favor by Admiral Rowan.
To enable the crew to drop their tor.
pedoes, so as to be effective, they could
not 60 high enough to escape the enemy's
marksmen, and if they went out Of rifle
range they could not aim and would
have to trust to luck for their ~torpedoes
hitting the mark. Recent experiments
have proved this.

The apparent head Of the Bulgarian
Government appears to be a mere pawn
in the game of the great Powers. The
situation in Bulgaria is determined by
the views of their wi interest. which
are held respectively by Russia. Ger.
many, Austria, England and France.
Each hopes to gain by diplomatic craft.
and to avoid the necessity Of war. In
this case war would seem to depend upon
the degree Of energy with which Russia
may choose to assert her dominion in
Bulgaria, with q view to her ultimate
object Of reaching Constantinople.

however, shows that h was not as dis.
astrous - was at first supposed. The OK.
plosion was caused by asudden ignition OF
about 100 pounds OF ro-glycsrine- and

Cholera and Water Supply.

In a recent letter to Nature, Mr.. George
Higgin says that the epidemic of Asiatic
cholera, which has been raging in Spain
during the last two years, has furnished not
few interesting data as regards its con
nection with water supply. Mr.. Higgin
claims that cholera never became truly
epidemic in any Spanish city IL which
there was a pure and good supply of water
and proper means were used to guard the
sources from pollution. In support of
this idea he calls attention to the cities of
Toledo, Seville, Malaga and Madrid, in
contradistinction to such places as Aran-
juez, Saragossa, Granada and Valencia
Mr.. Higgin shows very clearly that the
fine condition and careful protection of
the water supply of the cities first named
was the main cause of the comparatively
slight ravages of the disease within their
limits. Its seems, for example, that the
ancient city of Toledo, into which the
cholera entered in the summer of 1884,
and did not finally leave until the autumn
of 1885, furnished an official return of
200 cases of cholera, only one-half of
which were fatal As Toledo has popu-
lation of over 10000, the percentage of
choleraic disease was about per cent. of
the population for the two seasons re-
ferred to. On the other hand, continues MIR
Higgin, the city of Granada, with popu-
lation of nearly $4,000 souls, is supplied
with water by canals which are uncovered
and exposed to all kinds of contamina-
ton. Through the streets the water is
conducted in earthenware pipes, many of
which are the original ones put down by
the Moors before the conquest of the city
by Ferdinand and Isabella. The cholera
ragged here with frightful results, says
reported being over $50 per day. No at
tempt was made, as was done at Toledo
with such excellent results, to suppress
the old water supply, and the epidemic
took on alarming proportions in very
short time.-BrddStreet

Notes.

An ingenious idea is be carried out at
the new circus in Paris, where the sisters
johnson are nightly astonishing the ma
tives in their aquatic feats. The swimming
bath is lit up by electricity from below, SO
that the theatre being darkened, the
water becomes a transparency in which
the movements of the naiads can be min
utely followed.
Emperor William opened the Art Elk
hibition at Berlin in the presence of a
large number of the members of the royal
family and other distinguished persons.
Crown Prince Frederick William, as Pre-
sldent of the Academy, received from the
hands of the Emperor written address,
which he read. In the address his Majesty
recalled the fact that Frederick the Great
initiated the art exhibitions.

carry on conversation with people at
distance, and it is constructed of two huge
cone-shaped tubes, eight feet long and
three in diameter at the large end, which
diminish to an apex in the form of rubber
tubes small enough to place in the ear.
Between these tubes are two smaller ones,
constructed in the same manner. but not
more than half the diameter. By placing
the rubber tubes in the ear and speaking
through the smaller cones, the person can
hear and be heard at long distance, and
it thus aids mariners in listening for the
sound of breakers, or carrying on CONVEX
sation with persons on shore, or on other
vessels at distance.
We have commented before on the
rapid increase of the French national
debt, and the gloomy financial prospect
which France has to face in the ear
future On every occasion, however, the
extraordinary thrift and consequent wealth
of the French people as whole have been
emphasized as afording ground of hope
that these difficulties would be success

loan. Twenty million pounds was offered

est eagerness, by the peasantry and trades
people. The applications exceeded f400.-
100000, and the sum actually deposited
was so greatly in excess of the loan that
the return of this surplus affected the
money markets of Europe. When it is
added that the rate of interest is three per
cent, it will be seen that France has an
extraordinary capital to call upon in
financial difficulty, and that the people
have great faith in the stability of their
political system.

a Great Project.

According to an English paper the pro
ject of connecting Ireland and Scotland
by tunnel is being discussed, and a
shaft is being sunk to test the strata
through which the tunnel would probably
run. From soundings made it has been
ascertained that the greatest depth of the
sea between the two coasts is $50 feet, and
the roof of the tunnel, it is expected,
would have to be 200 feet thick, thus
making the total depth at which the
tunnel would run nearly 1000 feet. The
length of the deep-sea portion, it is stated,
would be 81 miles, and the total cost,
including the land approaches, would be
about f6,0OO0OO. The building of such
tunnel would, it is stated, change the
routes of travel very considerably, and the
passage across the Irish sea in steamers
would be rendered unnecessary All the
great passenger steamers and the mails,
instead of being landed at Queenstown,
would go by way of the tunnel and be
landed on the northern coast of Ireland.
The proposed tunnel would run from
Donaghadee, on the northeast coast of
Ireland, near Belfast, to almost an oppo-
site point on the coast of Scotland at
