THE real leader of the Macedonian
revolution is Boris Sarafoff who is de-
scribed as being only thirty years of
age, and the story is that his hatred is
u matter Of heredity, coming down
through special prosecution of his an
cesters during period of more than
two hundred years. When, in 164S,
the Turks undertook to make the Bull
garians adopt the Mohamedan religion
one Damian Sarafoff took the position
that death would be better, and or
ganiZed a formidable revolution that
resulted in much bloodshed. There
was no surrender and the Sarafoffs
were prominent in every subsequent
uprising that occurred during the
eighteenth and nineteenth century.
Young Sarafoff's father was banished
by the Turks some fifteen years ago,
and he has been spending all his time
since early youth preparing for the
revolution that has now fully broken
out. He has a good military educa-
ton and has been an officer in the
Bulgarian army. His organization is
said to extend throughout Macedonia
and Bulgaria and his word is law with
his people. For several years past the
Turks have had reward Of $4,000 on
his head but this has never served as
the slightest hinderance to his opera
tions.

TRANSPORTING coNTRABAND.

Mr.. Columbus H. Parham was before
Magistrate ]. C. Conner last Wednes-
day on the charge of transporting
whisky in violation of the dispensary
law; but was dismissed for lack Of
Jurisdiction, the alleged offense having
been committed in Bethel township.
The attempted prosecution grew out
Of the recent seizure Of two barrels Of
whisky, just across Crowder's creek
in the northern part of the county by
Constable Rose, Policeman w. j.
Whitener and Magistrate S. N. john
son, the story of which was published
in THE ENQUIRER shortly after the oc-
currence.
AS the result of further investigation
Of the matter Constable Rose got in
formation that led him to believe that
the seized whisky was the property Of
Mr. Parham, and acting upon this in
formation he swore out warrant for
Mr.. Parham's arrest. When the case
was called, Mr.. Thos. F. McDow ap-
peared for the prosecution and Mr.. F.
T. Mccain for the defense. Mr.. Nc
Cain raised the point Of lack Of juris-
diction and as there was no question
as to the location of the alleged Of
fense, the point was sustained.

TURKEY ARoUsEs UNCLE SAM.
American Vice Consul Assassinated at
Beirut, Syra.

And now 1t looks as II the United
States government Is to become active
ly mixed In the disturbance that Is
going on throughout Turkey, and that
unless Turkey acts with much discre-
tion there will be something doing
within few days.
William c. Magelssen, United States
vice consul at Beirut, Syria, was as
sassinated last Sunday. The story Is
that he was killed while riding In q
carriage. The matter was not report
ed In the United States until yester-
day. and as yet there are few partic-
ulars for the public.
The first report came from Minister
Lieshman at Constantinople. He ca
bled the state department that he had
been advised Of the assassination; but
when he went to make inquiries at the
Turkish foreign office, he was told
that no information had been received
on the subject and 1t was all a mis-
take.
Upon receiving the report Of Minis
ter Lieshman. the president directed
that Admiral Cotton's European
SQUADRON be ordered to hold itself in
readiness to go at once to Turkish
waters. The squadron is now off the
coast Of France. Admiral Cotton has
received his orders and signified his
readiness for further instructions.
The state department has instructed
Minister Leishman to demand Of the
Turkish government the immediate ar
rest Of the assassins, and further in
structions will depend upon further
developments.
Beirut is city on the eastern shore
Of the Mediterranean sea, and is q
place Of considerable commercial i'm

Turkish government with regard to
such demands as the United States
government may see proper to make.
In the event the squadron should be
ordered to Beirut, 1t is estimated
that the Brooklyn can make the trip in
six days; but the other vessels will re-
quire ten or twelve days.

papers Of the state ought not to be ex-
pected to do so gratis. Sending the
premium list to Ohio to be printed was
surprising piece Of ingratitude to
those newspapers which operate job

THE ENQUIRER endorses all this.
The state fair owes us nothing, and we
do not feel that we owe it anything.
But we have been impressed with the
cheek of it's management in year after
year requesting lot Of advertising
matter with suggestions as to how the
enterprise might be benefited by gra-
tuitious publications. 1t has been our
invariable practice to. put such stuff IN
our waste basket, and If other papers
OF the state would do the same thing,
they would eventually either compel
or secure relief from annoy
ance. Unless the fair can live on
fair business basis, we would like to
see an end of it.

REMEMBERED BY HIS FRIENDS.

COL w. H. McCorkle, probate judge
for York county, was the recipient or
a handsome bronze clock last Tuesday
afternoon. The clock, which was one
Of the prettiest and most expensive to
be found in Speck's Jewelry store, was
a present from the members Of the bar
and the various court house officials
in commemoration Of Judge McCorkle's
eighty second birthday.
1t was an impromptu affair, but new
ertheless an interesting one. Somebody
remembered that Judge McCorkle was
eighty-two years old that day, and
somebody else suggested it would be
the right thing for the members OF the
bar and the courthouse officials to COM
memorate the event with some fitting
tribute. The suggestion was a popu-
lar one, and canvass that was lnstl-
tuted at once developed that every
body concerned was anxious to have
hand in the proposed tribute.
There was no business doing that ar
ternoon and the colonel was just ar
ranging to take a nap, when the men,
bers Of the bar and the court house
officers presented themselves at his
door in a body. He was taken by SUCH
complete surprise that he had no inti-
nation of the meaning Of the visit,
until Major James F. Hart stepped
forward with the clock in his hands,
and addressed him as follows:
Judge McCorkle: Your friends, the
members of the bar and the court
house officers, have learned that this
day 50 years ago, the good Lord gave
you to the people of your county and
state. and we have come to congratu-
late you and to thank Him for what has
proved to be blessed gift.
Your long and useful life has en-
Ieared you to the people Of the county
and to all who know you, and we de-
sire to honor ourselves by making this
visit to you and rendering to you an
expression of our affection and regard.
As a memento of the occasion, we ask

Before Major Hart had fairly COM
menced his short address, Colonel Nc
Corkle began to appreciate the meaning
of it all. and although he made brave
effort at control, he could not prevent
his eyes from betraying the depth of
his feelings. He tried to speak; but
after one broken sentence gave it up
in mute helplessness more eloquent
than words. But the colonel was not
the only party to the touching little
circumstance who shed tears.

BETTER MAIL SERVICE.

In accordance with the recently
adopted policy of the postoffice depart
ment, outlined in The ENQUIRER
some time ago, to create additional
mail trains, and to commission train
men as employees Of the postal service
to provide additional facilities for the
carriage Of newspapers and second
class mails demanded by the growing
rural delivery service, Postmaster
General Payne on last Tuesday issued
the following order:
Paragraph S, section 1,4S8, postal
laws and regulations, edition of 1902, Is
amended to read as follows:
rs. Whenever delivery Of outside
newspapers packages cannot be made
by the regular railway postal clerk, be-
cause of there being no postal clerk on
the train used for the transportation OF
such packages. the baggageman on the
train will deliver the newsdealers'
packages outside of the mail sack, and
while in his custody they shall be con-
sidered as mail matter Baggagemen
shall deliver such packages at the
place shown In the address.
"b. Baggagemen are not permitted
to receive second-class mall directly
from the publisher on postmasters,
certificates, unless specially authorized
by the department through the divis-
ion superintendent to do so.
&c. Packages for delivery outside OF
the mail, when handled and delivered
by railroad baggagemen, will be duly
weighed and credited to the railroad
company carrying them, the same as
other mail matter.
I'd. In order to distinguish packages
for outside delivery sent by mail from
those sent by express companies or by
railroad service, it Is required that
publishers shall have printed In bold
type on wrapper Of mail packages for
outside delivery the words u. S. Mail
for outside delivery at publishers
risk"
1t is proposed to put the new policy
into effect as soon as possible.
In addition to the payment to rail-
road companies of weight rates for this
"outside mail" carried, trainmen en-
ployed by the postoffice department
will receive nominal salaries.
