THE CASE OF MISS STONE.

IN ISPATCHES from Europe announce the ex-'
istence OF a belief in Sofa that the diplomatic
- agent in that city of the United States has
notified the Bulgarian Government that he has infor
nation of the place where the abductors of Miss
Stone concealing her, and has demanded that
the Government cease any further negotiations with
the bandits and proceed at once to make vigorous
effort for her rescue The new movement the
part of the American representative is said to be due
to conviction on his part that it is impossible to
make terms with the brgands SO long as they deem
themselves safe from pursuit; but that if troops sur.
round the place where they are in hiding,
make strong demonstration against them, they will
weaken and surrender their captive for much less
ransom than they have hitherto demanded
1t is hardly worth while to discuss just how much
credence should be given to that story. 1t is not i'm
probable. Miss Stone has now been in captivity for
many weeks, 1t at first announced by her cap
tors that the ransom they demanded must be forth
coming Immediately or she would be put to death.
1t not forthcoming Immediately nor it seems,
has the full amount they demanded been forthcoming
even to this day. There have been negotiations
through sort of channel with the bandits and
efforts have been made to induce them to accept a
less than was at first demanded 1t appears they
have refused, but they have not broken off negoti-
ations. Under such circumstances it is not at all
associates of the kidnapers some one to betray the
place where the captive is confined and also to point
out the means by which her rescue could be safely
effected
So far as the circumstances of the affair can be
judged from this distance it appears Government
has valid claim against the Bulgarian Government
for the wrong inflicted upon the captive missionary
We have had the humiliation of having a ransom
exacted from people without being able to hunt
out the brigands who extorted it. When it was an
nounced that the ransom must be paid Miss Stone
would be put to death call made for contribu-
tions to the fund and the response prompt and
generous. For some time past have heard of no
further calls for money it is fair to that
the ransom is longer the chief question in the
situation Evidently there are other difficulties in the
way and it would seem that with them the Bulgarian
Government will have to deal; Uncle Sam will
know the reason why.

New London Fad.

1t is said that a number of London's So
ciety people have recently taken up the
barefoot fad" and that many of the
children of the worlds metropolis are how
using sandals instead of the conventional
footgear
Opinions as to the real benefit to be
derived from this custom vary, and while
some physicians hold that 1t will accom-
plish great good, others declare that it is
at least useless and may be the cause of
actual disease among children whose feet
are too tender for such practices. It is
claimed by many people that boots and
shoes cause various deformities in the
feet of children and are responsible for
much suffering. This is denied by others,
however, who hold that the danger from
injury to the bare foot more than counter
balances the harm which can be done by
modern shoes.

several months in cold storage. "a

He does not fail to remind us that
the storage warehouse is generally a
convenience and a benefit and only
when misused source of danger. But
neither he nor any one else could find
a good woTd to say for manufacturers

would be to give them nothing to eat

The inhabitants Of the countries bors

DDS Of making fire. A Burmese mes.
senger recently brought a note to an
English official, and the latter observed
something resembling a boys popgun
hanging by the messengers side. Gu.
riosity prompted him to ask the native
what it was, and he was surprised to
find that it was a machine for making
fire.
The native exhibited the apparatus
and explained the working, concluding.
with a practical demonstration. It
was tube, closed at one end and fitted
with piston. At the end Of the piston
was a groove Or cavity, smeared with
wax, which was used for, making
thread or inflammable material adhere
to it. The finder, to keep the old name,
is pressed on the wax when a light is
required and is not kept there always.
: Placing the wisp of cotton on the
wax, the native inserted the tightly
fitting piston in the tube, then forced
it along the latter by giving tia sharp
blow. On withdrawing the piston the
cotton was found to be alight, having
been ignited by the conclusion with the
compressed air.-Pearson's Weekly.
