FIGHT FOR FREEDOM.
Bulgarian Amazons Not Afraid of
Turkish Bullets.
Join the Insurgent Army to Preserve
Their HOmes-ROmHnce of * ris-
TIM PetkOva, IA Woman Sol
dier of RenOwn.

In the desultory warfare which is
being carried on against the Turk in
the Balkans women aave come to the
front again as soldiers. Among the
Bulgarian insurgents who invade Ma
cedonia and raid villages are number
of amazons who are sure of foot in
mountain climbing and sure of aim in
the fighting which is carried on in the
village and on the mountain side.
These women, unlike others who
have enlisted in the ranks of armies,
do not attempt to conceal the fact that
they are women. Some of them wear
their hair hanging free to display the
fact that they are amazons.
For a civilized or supposedly civil
liZed country, the woman soldier is an
almost unknown quantity, and for that
reason the fair soldiers of Bulgaria
who are risking the perils of an un-
recognized warfare against the Turk
are attracting attention.
Kristina Petkova is one of these SOL
diers. The uniform she wears is dis
tinctly serviceable one-strapped leg
gins, coarse woolen trousers, and loose
fitting blouse, with cartridge belt
around the waist and around the shoul-
ders, musket strapped to the back and
saber at the side.
There is a romance connected with
her service in the Bulgarian ranks of
the Macedonian army. Her fiance is
young officer in the same army. Dur
irg one of the mountain climbing raids
which are undertaken to drive the Ma
cedonian peasants into revolt against
the Turks he led a detachment against
/ village where the Turkish forces
were found in unexpected numbers A
quick retreat was all that saved the
| Bulgarian soldiers, but in this flight
the young officer was captured. being
in the rear of the retiring Bulgarians.
His comrades, having escaped to the
mountains, carried the news of his cap

ture to Kristina. In her despair, know
ing that there was little chance of any
thing but death for him, she gathered
about her a number of insurgents for
an attempt at rescue.
They retraced their way down the
mountain to the village and were plan
ming a night attack when the young
officer suddenly appeared among them.
He had succeeding in eluding the guard
placed over him and had made his es-
cape.
The young girl. however, had cast
her lot with the Bulgarian cause, and
to be with her lover during the cam
paigns she decided to enlist as a SOL
dier He protested at first, but finally
relented, being willing to allow her to
brave the dangers since she showed
the spirit necessary for it.
Among the other women who are
seeing service in the Bulgarian army
In Macedonia are some who are Off
GERS, most of them being noncommis-
stoned. Arnoudova is a sergeant but,
unlike Kristina. she is desirous of ap-
pearing as n man. In her costume she
appears to be sturdy and cookbook
ing youth of 21.
The character of the warfare being
carried on in the Balkans Is of kind
which would attract women to the SER
vice At least, it is repetition of the
kind which has attracted them in
times pasta repetition of the desul-
tory, but fierce struggles which have
been waged with all the greater fero-
city because they have been morgan
lied
Religion and race prejudices are
among the causes which make the Bull
garian and Macedonian troops the nat.
rrai enemies of the Turks. 1t is a
struggle for homes and churches, and
such a struggle always has claimed the
most active interest on the part OF
women.
When foreign policies cause wal
it is seldom that women get closely IL
touch with 1t, but as soon as homes
are threatened they will be found
identified with the men. Frontier life
in America demanded that the women
be as ready with rifle as the men,
and the condition in the Balkans now
presents similar problem to the Bull

A More Daring Exploit.

Admiral Clark, the famous COM
mander of the United States battleship
Oregon, passed some of his early years
in Greenfield, Mass. There in the
winter he coasted down Burniston
mountain, a hair-raising experience,
and one dearly priced by the youth of
the village, for it meant much to
reach the bottom In safety.
Shortly after the Oregon's remark
able voyage in the Spanish-American
war, one of the commanders boyhood
friends wrote to him. 1t was not just
an ordinary letter Of congratulation,
but a handsome and sincere tribute
to splendid seamanship and personal
bravery, such as any man would be
proud to READ aloud to his wife before
mailing. In due course the answer
came.

young gentleman, whose gallantry
was largely in excess of his pecuniary
means, sought to remedy this defect
and save the money required for the
purchase of expensive flowers by ar
ranging with a gardener to let him
have bouquet from time to time in
return for his cast-off clothes, relates
London Tit-Bits.
1t thus happened one day that he re-
ceived a bunch of the most beautiful
roses, which he at once sent off to his
lady-love. In sure anticipation of a
friendly welcome he called at the
house of the lady the same evening,
and was not little surprised at the
frosty reception he met with.
You sent me note to-day" the
young lady remarked, after pause,
in the most frigid tones.
Ia note?" he inquired, in blank
astonishment.
Certainly, along with a nosegay."
"To be sure l sent you q nosegay."
"And there was a note inside-do
you still mean to deny it?"
With these words she handed the
dumfounded swain a scrap of paper.
on which the following words were
written: Don't forget the old trousers
you promised me the other day."

We had plucked beside the way,
That winds 'roa4nd beside the river
Where the suuiit ripples play
When your arms were full of blossoms,
And the light was on rou: hair,
Could you guess that ne Fer never,
Held the world one half so fair?
When your arms were full of blossoms.
And you stepped into the road
From the fields where ripping billows
OF delightful blossoms flowed,
Running after. after, after,
Just to crowd about your feet
Did you know it-that the wide world
Held no other half SO sweet?
When your arms were full of blossoms,
And you bent until your hair
Mingled with their perfumed sweetness,
And your brow so broad and fair
Felt their timd swift caresseS,
Dear, dear heart, were you acquaint
With the Eact that never artist
Such bcene as that could paint?
When your arms were full of blossoms
Lid you catch the sudden hush?
Know the river ceased its singing?
Know the thralldom of the thrush?
Know all nature hung in rapture
On the necromantic spell
OF your purity and beauty?
Did you know it? Could you tell?

HERR RICHARD STRAUSS.
Notwithstanding German Composer
Now Conducting His Own Music
In This Country.

Richard Strauss, the most talked
about, most abused and most praised
composer of the present day, is said to
be more interested in his coming Amer
lean tour for his wife's sake than for
his own. She is going along to sing her
husbands intricate songs. Frau Pauline
was his discovery" from a musical
point Of view, and he expects still great
er things Of her in the future than she
has even hitherto accomplished.
The composer of "Guntram," Till Eu-
lenspiegel" and so many other puzzling
combinations of pure beauty and hide
GUS noise is not yet 40 years old, and his
romantic marriage with Frau Strauss
took place ten years ago. She was his
little singing pupil at the age of Is, and
married the musician much against the
will of her father, general in the Ba-
yarian army and man of high social
rank as we'll Frau Strauss now sings

will include no other vocal compost

Herr Strauss is not taking his own or
chestra with him, but will find the Amer1
lean orchestras ready for him as he
passes from city to city. He is an ad-
mirable conductor-which is a lucky
thing for his music, for there are very
few other wielders of the baton who can
show how effective his strange and ter
rifically up-to-date compositions are
when once you get the idea of them. The
first impression 1t makes on those who
are not skilled musicians is that the man
has undertaken to set German grammar
to music, but second or third hearing
or 1t captures the hearer or else makes
hftn an enemy for life.

related to the Viennese Strausses Of

hair short, and believes sincerely that

coming to the district, in 1863. he had
