THE TALG OF THE DAY.

The English papers are telling story Of Bernard
Shaw The occasion four years ago at the
first production of Arms and the Man The pro-
ducton was success. and at the fall of the curtain
there were camorous calls for the author to which
Mr. Shaw was at length induced to respond. the
audience were still cheering; but there was one
dissentient in the gallery, who was "boofng with
tbe full mower of a pair of very strong lungs. Mr..
Shaw looked up at this glorious minority OF one
and said very seriously: 'Yes. sir. I quite agree
with YOU; but what can two do against whole
houseful?"

The striking miners had vacation OF five
months. That long rest. Why were they
not willing to work full time on every day OF
Christmas week after nearly half a year of idle
ness? Their disregard of the troubles of the
consumers after they had enjoyed so much leis-
ure has hurt them in public opinion.

Note to the Powers Shows . warllke
 Attitude,
 A note sent by Bulgaria to the pow CTS declaring that unless the latter In. tervene in Macedonia Bulgaria will he forced to take such measures as she may deem necessary Is held to be & prelude to the mobilization of the Bull garian army unless Europe exerts her self in some way to prevent a conflict, and there is probably some connection between this eventuality and the de cision of the revolutionists to revert to guerrilla tactics, which maNNIbe in order to reserve their resources for co-opera. ton with Bulgaria.
 While it Is possible that a Turko- Rul. garian war may even yet be averted. the probabilities of such an encounter were never greater than at the pres ent moment. The recent note to the powers, the most decided step yet tak- en by the principality. was dictated not only by the alarming reports of whole sale msssacres and devastation daily arriving, but even more by the indif. ference of the powers toward the sc verity of Turkeys oppressive measures,

TO DISTRIBUTE MILLIONS.
Secretary Shaw Win Aid the Middle
 Meat EarmerR.

Secretary Shaw of the treasury has determined upon the distribution of an additional S4.OO0,UO0 of the t40. .oOO. .oO0 he set aside earlier in the year for the purpose of making special government deposits, The secretary has prepared his rst of banks to which these depos. Its will go. The amounts to be given each will range from $50.00o to S2oo.. os0, most of them at the minimum fig ures The average deposits will be &H0 600.
 Ranks in almost every state will get some of the money. The secretary has tried to pick out those which lie in the centers or immediate vicinity Of the great agricultural sections of the coun. try. The banks Secretary Shaw has. on his list are what are popularity known as country banks" Most of them were among those which have applied to the treasury for additional. fseposits or have asked that they be@S<Sated ns- tional Repositories.
 A significant fact Is that no bank that has been placed on the list has re. duced its circulation or taken steps In that direction. No bank which takes such action can expect to hold its de. posits if need should develop in any other quarter for the funds, and no new deposits will be given to bank reducing It's circulating medium.
 After his trip through the middle west Secretary Shaw believes there Is need for more money in that part of the country, and the bulk of the funds designated for deposit will go to the az ricultural regions in the Mississippi basin

Having lived and done business in this community during all those years, seventeen of which we're spent at Cornwall Bridge, I simply wish to state I am still in the business and carrying the usual stock of goods kept in that line.

Gypsies and Death,

The custom of placing the property of the dead in their graves has always been followed by the true Romany gypsies.
