Change in Tactics.

A dispatch from Sofia yesterday saws:
1t is reported that Mr.. Dickinson, the
United States diplomatic agent here, has
informed the government of Bulgaria that
the abductors of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone and
Nine. Tsilka. with their captfves, are con-
cealed in defle of the Belleritza noun
tains near Smotch, district of Dubnitza, and
has requested that troops be sent to sur
round the place and liberate the captivcs.
Both Mr.. Dickinson and the Bulgarian for
eign office decline to confirm or deny this
report Nevertheless, it is believed that
Mr.. Dickinson. persuaded of the impossi-
b1llty of coming to terms. with the bri-
gands and relying upon his belief that they
will not harm their captives If troops are
employed against them, has, after consult
ing with Washington, decided upon this
move.
Only eight bandits now guard Miss
Stone, and some of these are known to
sympathize with her
About fortnight ago Mr. Dickinson
approached the foreign Office and proposed
this same plan, but it's carrying out was
abandoned because of the uncertainty of
the location Of the bandits.

NEW YORK, November 2O.-The police of
Hoboken, N. J., are investigating today the
mystery of the death of five-year-old Eme-
line Dale, who died yesterday of strychnine
poisoning in Hoboken. The child was the
daughter of Harvey S. Dale, manager of a
life insurance agency in Chicago. Mrs.
Dale arrived at Busch's Hotel Saturday
night. According to statements made by
her she had not been feeling well and had
been taking strychnine tablets. Monday
night she said she left the tablets on a
dressing table, and while she was asleep her
child arose and ate three of them, thinking
they were candy. Her cries awoke me-

PROF. RITCHEYs DISCOVERY
FINDS STARTLING PROOF OF THE
NEBuLAR THEORY.
Spots In Nebulas of Nova of Per.eus
shown to Have
Moved.

CHICAGO, November 90 = Professor
Ritchey of Yerkes observatory is reported
to have made discovery in astronomy
which will make himself and the obserya-
tory world famous. The discovery, in brief
is the proof of what is known as the nebu-
lar theory of creation, announced by La
Place, and of the theory that the solar sys-
tenn, and even star clusters, have been
formed by millions of years of evolution
from great bodies of gaseous matter float
ing in space. 1t is Also claimed that proof
has been adduced that nebula, with a
star for a nucleus, changes its shape and
the quantity of light it eniits and that
these changes are so rapid as to be observ-
able within the compass Of few hours.
Astronomers have long believed that the
nebulae were the matfixes of solar systems
and star clusters like our own, but 70 OBJ
server has been able to see the slightest
sign of change in the structure This has
now been done by Professor Ritchey, wno
is busily engaged in preparing for the tech
nical journals an announcement of his dis
covery.
The celestial object upon which Professor
Ritchie has made his observations is the
mysterious star, Nova Of Perseus which
suddenly appeared last February in the
northern sky, blazing with strange light in
a place where there had been no star be-
IOre. It's light rapidly increased until it
became star of the first magnitude. Then
it gradually faded away, until now it is
only Of the sixteenth magnitude At pres
ent it is altogether invisible to the unaided
vision.
On the night of September 20 Professor
Ritchey photographed Nova of Perseus by
means of the twenty-four-inch reflector at
the observatory. The negative disclosed
the fact that the star was surrounded by a
nebula-a fact which had been previously
shown by another observer. But Oh the
plate made by Professor kRitche, after an
exposure of three hours and fifty minutes
there were two fairly; dense wisps of nebu-
losity toward the west, with a curve to
the north merging into the convolutons of
the nebula This was a startling fact, but
Professor Richie patiently waited or a
favorable night to secure another negative
The looked-for opportunity came last We'd
nesday night. November 13, when. for seven
hours, Professor Ritchey exposed his plate
to the light of the mysterious star.
When he looked at the negative he OBJ
served a fact in which he at once recog-
nized the proof so long sought and so ar
IDENTIFY wished for by observers everywhere
The spots of density in the west field Of
the nebula had moved.

TRAVEL PAY FOR SOLDIERS.
Bill to Provide 1t to Be Again Intro
duced.

An effort will be made during the COM
ing session of Congress to secure the pas
sage of bill giving travel pay to soldiers
returning from the Philippines instead of
subsistence and transportation. In the last
Congress Senator Turner of Washington
introduced a bill for this purpose, but the
conditions existing in the short session
were such as to make it impossible to
secure its consideration. Mr. Turner will
again introduce this bill as soon as Con-
gress meets and will press its consideration
1t will apply to about 10000 volunteers
whose homes are in eighteen or twenty
states of the Union. The amount of travel
pay in excess of the allowance already
made these soldiers for substance and
transportation will be about 5000 each
Mr. Turner believes the bill will pass, es-
pecially most of the soldiers who will
be benefited by it's passage remained in
the Philippines beyond the period of their
original enlistments a patriotic duty to
the government at time when their SER
vices were needed whereas If they had re-
turned to their homes upon the expiration
of their first enlistment they would have
received travel pay. If Congress passes
