RACES Issued.

Sofia, Aug. 27.-.An immense mass

ing. 1t was described as a "moment
OF susnhine which quickly passed "

in Macedonia, declaring that if the
pouring out OF blood in Macedonia con.
tinu' d another fortnight, Europe would
find nobody there to save. The Bulga.
rian ministers were urged not to stand
by while their brethren were dying in
Macedonia.
The gathering was the largest yet
held in Sofia. Most of the shops were
closed during the meeting, as mark of
sympathy with its objects. Resolutions
were adopted thanking the pub icists
who have defended the cause of the
Macedonians, regretting the hesitation
on the part of Europe to take steps to
ameliorate the lot of the Christians in
Turkey, demanding the appointment of
IA powerful Christian governor who
would insure security for the country,
and inviting all Bulgarians to aid in
securing the triumph of the work al
ready begun.
List of Outrases Issued.

black bordered list of seventy villages
which have been pllaged and destroyed

GERS, leading band of $50 insurgents

Bad for Hop Crop

Portland, Aug. 26.-The fate Of a
large portion of the Oregon hop crop
depends on the weather OF the next few
days. Vermn have infested many
yards, and now mold has appeared and
is spreading alsrmingly in some Sec
tions. With continuance of the
damp, rainy weather, the damage will
be great. A return of sunshine and a
brief hot spell will do much to lessen
the injury. In order not to lose their
entire crop many owners will pick their
hops before they are matured. Even
without change for the better, the
loss to Oregon hop growers will reach
many thousand dollars.

cleveland, Ohio, Aug. Ex-senator
NJ. A. Hanna, who has but recently re-
turned from several weeks vacation,
was taken so Ill at his Office today as to
require the services of a physician.

stomach trouble and advised his imme-
date relaxation of business and retire
ment to his home. Senator Hanna i'm
mediately left for his home, and to-
night is reported as somewhat better.
The remarkably warm weather that
has prevailed during the past few days
no doubt has affected Senator Hanna,
and in all probability the heat has ag-
gravated minor complaint sufficiently
to overcome him.

VESUVIUS OPENS UP.

the Central One.
Naples, Aug. 2S.-The people of Ma
Piles and the environs witnessed re-
markable spectacle at noon yesterday.
One thousand feet below the central
cone OF Nesuvius the volcano opened
like huge mouth, out of which belch-
ed fiery stream of lava, which ran
down the side of the mountain and at
first seemed to menace the observatory.
This building, however, is protected in
the direction of the stream by mound
of lava twenty feet high, which was
thrown out during the eruptions OF
1895 and 1900.
The eruption occurred without any
warning whatever There was no
earthquake, defamation or rain Of
ashes, nothing but a clear stream Of
lava and red hot stones, which were
thrown to height of 700 feet. produc.
ing an extremely beautiful effect as
seen from Naples, The stream of lava,
which is fifteen feet broad, covered a
distance of 300 feet. 1t deviated lat
er from the direction of the observa
tory. which is no longer menaced.
The danger is now to the new cleo
trio tramway up the volcano, which,
however, has thus far not been touched.
The eruption already seems to be de.
creasing, and it is hoped that no dam
age will result from it.
The spectators far enough away not
to be frightened, stood entranced at the
spectacle, but those nearer to the vol
cano were seized ov panic when the
eruption began and rushed down from
the sides OF the mountain and from the
adjacent country to the villages of Por
tici and Resina, which are built over
the ruins of Herculaneum.

KILLINGS NEW POEMS.

A Tribute to the Boer and EngIandss
 Colonial Troops. In volume entitled "The Five Ma tions," which has just been published simultaneously in New York and Lon don, the American edition coming from the presses of Doubleday, Page & Go, Rudyard Kipling has twenty-five new poems. One of the poems is a tribute to the Boer under the title of tsPiet, '' written in the spirit that produced Fuzzy Wuzzy." Here is part of it: I do not love my empires foes
 Nor call lem angels. Still,
 What IS the sense of attn those
 'Om you are paid to kill?
 So, barrin' all that foreign lot
 Which only joined for spite,
 Myself I'd just as soon as not
 Respect the man Tight. An, there, Pietl-'is trousies to is knees, 'Is coat tails Iyin' level in the bullet spria
 kled breeze; E does not lose is rife, an e does no,
 lose is seat; I've known a lot O people ride a dam
 sight worse than Riet!
 No more I'll ear is rife crack
 Along the block'ouse fencas
 The beggar's on the peaceful tack,
 Regardless of expense:
 For, countin' what e eats an draws.
 An gifts an loans as we'll
 'E's gettin' 'alf the earth because
 E didn't give us ell! An, there, Piet, with your brand new
 English blow Your gratis tents an cattle an your most
 ungrateful frow, You've made the British taxpayer rebuild
 your country seat; I've known some pet battalions charge a
 dam sight less than Pfet! Copyrighted 1903, by Rudyard Kipling. The colonials who served in South Africa are praised in '"The Parting of the Columns" Three stanzas from 1t follow:
 There isn't much we 'aven't shared since

 the same old dust and sun; The same old chance that laid us out or
 winked an let us through; The same old life, the same old death
