time-honored custom, become q day
dear to the memory of the American
peopae-a day OF national thanksgiving
"A day specially set apart in which
We give praise and thanks to God for
his blessings during the year.
During the past year we have en-
dured q great national trial. The
hearts Of the people are still filled with
sorrow caused by the death Of our be-
loved and honored President, the man
ner OF whose death has caused a great
shadow to pass over our land.
But, ~ we mourn for him, we still
have much for which to be thankful.
Our hearts are filled with gratitude for

BRIGANDS NOW TREAT
MISS STONE HARSHLY

Sofia, Bulgaria, Nov. u.-Informa-
tion has been received here from Doub-
nitza that the band Of brigands holding
captive Miss Ellen NJ. Stone, the Amer
lean missionary, called about fort
night ago at the village of Smetchevo
and subsequently proceeded to the
monastery of Rilo, but the movements
of the troops compelled the brigands to
flee toward the frontier, where they
are now in hiding.
1t is also asserted that the brigands
have recently been treating Miss Stone
with more severity In order to exercise
pressure and to compel more ready
acceptance Of their conditions.
Consul General Dickinson is infiexi-
BILE. He insists that the surrender of
Miss Stone must precede or be stimuli
taneous with the payment of the ran
some. His attitude is justified by the
known determination of some members
Of the band, particularly the captain,
Yanne Sandsky, to kill Miss Stone and
her companion as soon as the ransom
Is received, owing to the fact that the
captives have now acquired informa-
tiOn concerning the secret committees.
Competent persons, however, express
the opinion that the cupidity Of the
brigands, will overcome their fear of
revelations, and all such approve the
declaration of Mr.. Dickinson.
Saturday Mr.. Dickinson made ener-
getic representations to the Bulgarian
government against the movements of
the Bulgarian troops, reproaching the
officials with the fact that. notwith-
standing their solemn promises to give
him NIL assistance in their power, their
action was embarrassing the negotia.
tions, retarding settlement and plac-
/ ing in jeopardy the life of Miss Stone.
/ He made a definite declaration that
the Bulgarian government would be
held responsible for the death of Miss
Stone and Of all the consequences of
her death, should 1t be proved that the
attitude Of the Bulgarian government
forced the brigands to kill their cap
| tives.

An interesting operation has Just
been performed in the hospital attached
to the University at Halle, Germany.
A 6-year-old girl patient was suffering
from partial paralysis and as the doc
tors in charge considered this could
only arise from tumor on the brain.
Prof. Won Bramann decided to remove
it. With an electric saw he cut out
piece of the skull little larger than
a half-crown. cut through the inner
skin, and discovered tumor as large
as walnut. The professor skilfully
removed this tumor, sewed up the in
ner skin, fitted In again the round
piece OF the skull he had sawn out.
and sewed up the outer skin. The
operation lasted an hour, and may be
considered perfectly successful. as the
child is quite well again and all symp.
toms Of paralysis have disappeared.
