sia upon the porte. A full exchange Of
views has occurred between the powers
interested. Mr.. Ba.lfour's statement in
the house of commons outlining Great
Br1ta1n's attitude and the warnings OF
Austria and Russia to Bulgaria proved
that these three nations are in accord and
the advices received at the embassy show
that France and Germany approve the
policy Of Russia and Austria
War between Turkey and Bulgaria
might lead to a general conf1agration. It
Is to prevent complications of such a
grave character that every effort is be-
ing made by the powers to maintain peace
between those countries.
Up to this time Bulgaria has been hold
ing herself in hand and hope this will
continue, altho the state of public feeling
could conceivably If not soon Gained,
cause one or the other to precipitate hos
tilities.

IT WAS FROZEN FOR AGES
Body of Mammoth in an Excellent
State Of Preservation Is Found
in Siberia,

st, Petersburg, Aug. 1.-THE Academy
Of Sciences In st. Petersburg lately re-
ceived an extraordinary acquisitions
complete gigantic mammoth with even it's
skin in a perfect state of preservation.
When the news of the discovery came the
academy sent out an expedition under DR..
Otto Herr to the spot, q wild place on the
bank of the Beresovka river, where re-
cent landslide had disclosed the animal $
body. DR.. Herr party had the greatest
difficulty in getting the animal out Of its
ice bed A wooden house was built and
big fires lighted to thaw the ice. At last
It was all removed and got to st. Peters
burg from Irkutsk.
The hide was perfect and alone weighed
$40 pounds. 1t Is covered with thick,
strong hair from eight to twenty inches
long.
The flesh, according to expert geolo-
gists, must have lain in the earth and ice
about 10000 years. It is blood-red and
| has a certain elasticity. Between the flesh
| and the hide Is a coating Of fat three
| inches and a half thick, which must have
enabled the mammoth to bear the most
| intense cold.
The stomach, found intact, was filled
with various kinds Of grasses and the
teeth were lined with vegetable matter
showing that the animal was feeding wher
suddenly buried.

FOR A RELIGIOUS TRUST
Rev. Bruce Brown of Chicago Says
That Is What Is
Needed.

Chicago, Aug. ia trust in religious
forces to bring about economies in soul
saving, after the manner Of the COM
mercial world, has been advocated by the
Rev. Bruce Brown, In the North Side
Christian church.
'It is high time there should be a trust
in religious forces and resources" he
said "Our present methods tend to
multiply churches In respectable com
munities and to leave the slums destitute
of church privileges. We build so many
churches among the comparatively good
people that we have no money left to
preach the gospel to the poor.
1.-The millennium will never dawn or
a. divided church. The Kingdoms of this
world will not be made the kingdoms Of
God by any sect or schism. Our useful.
ness and efficiency and influence would be
magnified many fold if we would cease
multiplying churches where they are
needed the least to use the money fol
building churches where they are needed
the most.
IT am in favor of a religious trust

is regarded as being quite improbable that
the memorandum was a prelude in the
