The Gear and bulgarian Governmer

The Gar and Bulgarian Government
SOFIA, Feb. 26.-As the inquiry into
the Panitza conspiracy has been hitherto
conducted upon the assumption that
Russia is always at the bottom of all evil
things that are done i'll the Bulgarian
government, the car has assumed that
his majesty is practically to be put on
trial when Panitza is tried, and he does
not propose TO be a mere locker on where
he can be accused and cannot answer E.
The Russian government has conse-
quentlY requested that the dragOman OF
the German consulate shall attend trial
officially on behalf of his majesty. The
car will thus obtain an official record of
the proceedings and will have ready an
organ through which he can communi-
cate any protest he may care to make.

WORLDS FAIR COMMITTEE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The special
house committee on the Worlds fair
met this morning to begin consideration
of the second stage of the work, that is
the completion of the bill to give effect
to the decision of the house. Chairman
Gambler opened the proceedings by stat
ing that the committee was now pre-
pared to entertain suggestions from the
Chicago representatives respecting
amendments to the bill already reported,
necessary to make it apply to Chicago.
Mr.. Hit said that Chicago would leave
the matter of an appropriation TO meet
the cost of a government exhibit and
government buildings to the house and
would be content to accept any sum that
in the opinion of that body would suffice
for an exhibit creditable to the govern
ment. As to the incorporation provision,
it was regarded as essential that the bill
contain some provision recognizing the
present anticipation, which was organized
under the Illinois law, and it was desir-
able that one-half of the 100 incorpo-
rators should be- appointed by the mayor
of Chicago, Democrat, and one-half by
the Republican state governor.
Several other suggestions were made,
after which Mr.. Flower moved the ap-
pointment of subcommittee to draft
q Chicago fair bill, and it was adopted
without division. The subcommittee
was Immediately appointed, and consists
of the chairman (Mr. Candler) and
Messrs. Hit and Springer. Upon mo-
ton of Mr.. Frank, the bill (No. 6883)
was referred to the subcommittee to in
sert the name of Chicago as the site for
the fair.
Mr.. Springer offered a resolution,
which was adopted, calling on the secre-
tary of the treasury for an estimate of
the sum necessary for the erection of
government buildings at Chicago and for
making suitable exhibit in behalf of
the government. The committee seemed
disposed to deal with the subject in
liberal spirit. The Chicago men are very
much pleased with the attitude of the
representatives of the unsuccessful cities
at the meeting this morning, and say
they are assured of the earnest support
of all parties, who have expressed them
selves as DESTROYS of doing everything in
their power to make the fair a success.

Special to the Gazette
LONDON, Feb. 26.-The Conservatives
have now arrived at the realization Of
the fact that the circulation among the
electors of the north division of Saint
Pancras OF the pamphlet designed to
show that the report OF the Parnell COM
mission was really g verdict OF guilty
against all of the Irish members accused
by the Times, was q mistake likely to
prove fatal TO their chances of retaining
the seat. A large majority OF the work
and it was these men that the pamphlet
was intended to reach, but it is
now plain that it has reacted
great deal further with the result
that the Tories are losing ground among
those who have formerly supported the
government.

MILITIA IN OKLAHOMA L.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3d. response to
the senate resolution the secretary OF
war to-day transmitted to congress
copies Of all kilograms and letters on file
in the war department relative to the
action OF the military in Oklahoma fl ON
the date of the presidents proclamation
opening the territory to its settlement.
The facts which are disclosed by these
papers are very generally known and most
of the information contained in them has
been published from time to time. Gen.
Schofield, in a report dated December
IT, commenting upon the conduct OF the
military in Oklahoma, says: Consider
ing the extremely difficult and delicate
nature of the service required of the
troops in Oklahoma, think it q subject OF
congratulation that the service was per-
formed so well and with so few mistakes.
If the officers erred in some instances in
their Judgment as to the limits of their
lawful authority, they did not fail
in their estimates Of the necessities of the
extraordinary situation in which they
were placed, or in courage or GOODNESS to
do with firmness and due forbearance
what seemed to be necessary.
The closing papers relate to the charges
of Collector Acers in the Kansas district.
He states that there are at least five
hundred liquor stores in Oklahoma and
he charges the militia with not taking
measures to suppress the traffic. The
army officers in their report as to the
charges, state that they are unfair.
That there are a great many places IN
Oklahoma where liquor can be had,
they say, is undoubtedly true, but the
military have no means of ferreting cut
the places, and do not consider it their
duty to do so. Willingness is expressed
to aid the United States marshal and his
deputies in movements looking to the
suppression of the liquor traffic.

family servant, faithful unto death. His
devoted, faithful service to the family
from his youth to his grave, and especial

ing gratitude and affection. In his case,
life was certainly "worth living"-if for
no other reason, yet, because his life,
and the lives of all such honest, manly
noble men of his race as he was, tend to
unite in peaceful, friendly and confiden-

our beloved Southland.
On the borderland between the two
races, where their rights and interests
most conflict, he stood; and with fine
natural sense of justice, a clear, steady
eye and high order of moral courage he
saw and stoutly stood for the rights Of
either. He acted well his part. AL

Presently there was knocking, and .
voice exclaimed:
"Open the door directly, Or
The rest was inaudible. Edith's
screams drowned all else. Madame
Lucca waited until the girls first stock
of breath was exhausted, and her sec
ond not vet arrived; she then said with
comic severity:
'.Editha, if you are not quiet, l will
begin by shooting you"
Editha thought, apparently, that her
mistress was in earnest, for the poor
girl Immediately rammed large portion
of the nearest towel into her mouth, and
restricted herself to swaying to and fro,
and sobbing violently. The knocking
recommended, but the door was massive
and immoyable.
''My friend" cried Madame Lucca, in
a loud voice, "you are Gagged. The gar
den door is fastened as tightly as this
one, and the window is secured. Do not
attempt to open the latter, for am 60
ing into the garden, and the instant that
I see you trying to escape, you are
dead man"
Fliuging open the door which led to
the verandah, she went out, followed by
Editha, who, in her despair had sue
ceeded in pushing more of the towel
into her mouth. The noise of bolt be-
ing drawn was heard.
ssStand aside, my friend ~ said Madame
Lucca, ''or you are a dead man."
A sharp report followed, accompanied
Al IS
splintered glass.
''There! that is one barrel out of six.
That is merely to show that I am armed.
You had better remain quiet"
The visitor also was seemingly of this
opinion, for he did not renew the at
tempt.
When the servants returned next morn
ing they found Madame Lucca quietly
reading under the verandah before the
window. They were rather surprised,
however, on perceiving that she had
six-barrelled revolver in her hand, and
Editha with what appeared to be the
end of towel sticking out of her mouth.
A few words explained the whole affair,
and in about an hour afterwards the
would be thief, who, as it was proved,
would have been ready to turn assassin
as we'll, was safely at the nearest police
station.
"Talk of generalship, said my friend,
as he concluded the story, "was not the
stratagem of the jewels, by which Madame
Lucca lured the thief into the room des-
tined to be his dungeon, a magnificent
idea2 Moltke himself never did any
thing to beat that. "-Matter.
