bassador Herbert to inspect the work Of
British consuls in America, passed the

A few days after her wedding her titled
husband wrote a letter to her family in
Kansas City asking for financial assist

Ambassador Herbert and by calling upon

an adventurer and impostor Of the worst

Washington, Feb. 2.-Several WELL
known government officers are i'll In bed
to-day, suffering from the effects Of the
1'Water-cu treatment administered to
them last night during their initiation
into the mysteries of the Order of the
Heinegebaublers, a Milwaukee society,
we'll known throughout the west for the
peculiar conditions which govern additions
to its membership and for the unique
character Of it's initiation ceremonies.
Last night a meeting of the Washing
ton branch of the society was held at
the home of Francis H. Whitney, Post
master General Payne's private secretary,
whose title in the order is that of Chief In
structor of the Eastern District and Tenn
porary Custodian Of the Duplicate Crystal
Tank. The water cure was not admins
tered exactly after the fashion made ia :
nous in the Philippines.
Il There are ceremonies other than the
water cure in connection with the initia-
ton into the Heinegebaublers. but they
are not publicly known. The condition OF
the newly elected members after the cere-
monies and the indiscreet remarks OF one
of them are responsible for the knowl-
edge of so much of the rites. But Vis-
itors to Mr. Whitney's home at Chevy
Chase have often remarked upon the du-
plicate crystal tank and the use to which
the massive and peculiar object was put

THE EASTERN QUESTION
Trouble in Balkans Coming to a
+' Head

Vienna, Feb. 2.-Well-informed politi-
clans are coming almost unanimously to
the view that the Threatened trouble
In the Balkans Is near serious realization.
Sanguinary encounters between the gen
darmerie and Bulgarian marauders in the
vilayet OF Monastir continue, and these
generally can be traced more or less di-
rectly to the Macedonian revolutionary
committee. Nervous disquietude prevails
among the officials at Constantinople. No
fewer than seven conferences were held
by the chief military commission last
week to consider mea sures to be taken in
Macedonia in the event of the threatened
revolutionary outbreak. The porte is do
ing it's utmost to provide a commissariat
on a large scale. 1t is buying arms and
munitions and is seeking to remove fric-
ton with neighboring governments. 1t
has dismissed the governor of Ipek at the
demand of Russia and has suspended the
differential tariff against Greece and Ser
via. ... ...-. ~. r. -
/ Meanwhile the Bulgarian newspapers are
urging the government to arm and accu-
mulate stores before it is too late. It is
stated that Servia has already placed an
| immense order for arms and ammunition.

MISS REELS REPORT
Superintendent of Indian Schools Is
- Pleased. IL. -.

Washington, Feb. 2.-The annual report
Of Miss Estell Reel, superintendent of In
dian schools, says that for fifteen years
the attendance has steadily Increased at
the rate of more than 1000 year, the.
enrolment for 1901 being 2S.610. Believ-
ing that good citizenship and self-support
should be the foundation, the energies Of
the system are being devoted to making
the instruction practical, to shift the bur-
den of responsibility and support that the
government now assumes to the shoulders
of the Indian himself.
The new course of study gives attention
to the classroom work, but makes agri-
culture and industrial instruction of pri-
mary Importance.
, An encouraging feature is the change
that has come over the older Indians in
their attitude toward the education of
their children. but the best evidence is
found in the condition Of their homes and
the increased interest taken in the culti-
walton of land and the care of live stock.

Contamination by sewage was found
fifty miles away from London in the drain
age outfall, while an even worse state of
affairs exists at other points on the Eng

these cases was due to bad local sewage.
