alrous toward women.
The Fijians 60 to extremes. They are
so deferential and polite to their women

to be law III the Fiji islands.
The Maories of New Zealand always

Of Ranfurly once called them "the truest
gentlemen OF earth" They will not per-
nit a woman to do any hard work IL

Bell recently travelled alone among the

MISSOURI A NEWS
Retired Merchant Asphyxiatsa.

ErIsst Koelle, a retired toy merchant,
was found dead in bed in ST. Louis
Death was due TO asphyxiation, and
the gas jet in the roo was turned on
full, but whether it was suicide or &C
cident could not be positively ascer-
tanned. Deputy Coroner Booghe" in
clines toward the latter theory and
rendered a verdict to that effec@ MIR.
Koelle was 81 years old, having been
born in Muehlhausen, Germany, in
1871. He came to this country forty
yea7s ago and a year later to st. Louis.
Here he opened a wholesale and retail
toy store and remained in this until
fifteen years ago, when he retired. He
was a widower, his wife having died
about twenty years ago. Seven chill
dren, all grown, survive him.

CONDITIONS BECOMING WORSE.
Macedonia Straining Every Nerve to
Force Bulgaria Into War

Macedonia Straining Every Nerve to
Force Bulgaria Into Wa
Sofia, Bulgaria, Sept. 3.-In official
quarters there is a suspicious absence
of news from the interior of Macedonia
and also from A~drainople, and it is
feared that the conditions there are
steadily becoming worse The Mace
DOMAIN organizations are straining ev-
cry nerve to force Bulgaria into a war
They are addressing letters to every
body in a position to contribute to the
! cause. The applications usally do not
refer to the revolutionary movement,
but ask aid for the straving and nome
less fugitives from Macedonia, Where
wealthy citizens decline to subscribe
the organizations do not hesitate to
make strong representations. A rich
merchant of Philippopolis was recent
ly told that unless he contributed 3d.
900 his house would be blown up.
Many Turks Killed and Wounded.
At Tersidere a band fought 300 sol
diers all day, with the result that the
Turks had 81 men killed, while the in
surgents lost five. At Prespan, in the
Okrida district, fighting has long been
proceeding between insurgent bands
and an army of 10000 Turks. The lat
ter are reported to have lost more than
two hundred killed or wounded. An
other engagement lasting all day has
been fought at Pribilisti, Monastir villa
yet, in which the Turkish loss was CIV
en- as 40 and the insurgent loss as five.
A band led by Kanko Stoyanoff has de-
stroyed the village of Gorinokavieve,
Carlosengrad, a notorious haunt OF
Turkish brigands.
The newspaper, Poshta, asserts that
all the villages in the district of Laren
are BURNING According to revolution
airy estimates Turkey has now in Ma
cedonia an army of It's 900 men, with
300 horses and 440 guns.
In an engagement at Simen, Losen-
grad, the villagers joined the Turks,
who were defeated. The insurgents
afterwards burned the village as a
punishment to the inhabitants for aid
ing the Turks.

STATE ITEMS.
Pepper. at the world,. Fair.


Among the highly interesting and
instructive exhibits of Missourf's de-
partment of horticulture at the St
Louis Worlds fair next year will be
n of "Ten Little Peppers, and How
They Grew" The department OF hor-
ticulture of the Missouri Worlds fair
commission, of which B. H. Bonfoey,
of Unionville, is chairman, and L. A.
Goodman, superintendent, has already
collected at st. Louis a splendid show
ing of peppers varying in size from the
little tom Thumb" variety to the old
fashioned, non-commercial sort, a foot
in circumference. All colors are repre-
sented, too-yellow, red, green and
brown-and the attractive display OF
the well-preserved colors is among the
first things that seize the eye of the
visitor to the laboratory. Mr.. Good
man is much pleased with the results
of his experiments in maintaining the
natural color of the pods. At first he
was apprehensive of their change OF
coat, but after three weeks test, he
believes they will hold color through
the exposition period. Besides the St
Louis collection, splendid displays have
been received at Springfield, Kansas
City and Columbia laboratories.
