they remained until they were rescued.

BROTHERS MEET AFTER

They Encounter Each Other SbIey StreetOne CONNER
ciaI Traveller the Other Harvest Hand

''Well, Ben! Is that you, Benz" cried
the harvester.
The traveller hurriedly glanced at his
watch and spoke rapidly to the har-
vester, into whose eyes the tears
sprang.
Patrolman Hurley stood on the cor
ner and was a spectator of the odd
scene. The traveller turned to Hurley,
and, thinking an explanation necessary,
said:
He is my brother and haven't seen
him for fourteen years" The harvester
was too much overcome to speak. The
traveller continued:
I'VE have just fifteen minutes before
my train leaves. Come along with me-
"Oh, 1 can't go, Ben; look at my
clothes.''
Never mind your Clothes" replied
the other, II will buy you new ones.
Come along"
In reply to a question, the CONNER
cial traveller said that his name was
Benjamin F. Fitzhugh, of Chicago. The
two brothers then went on down the
street, and soon were lost in the crowd
about the depot.

Hurley, as the two men departed "And

overalls had been dressed up you
wouldn't know him from the other.''

TROUBLES STILL GATHER.
Macedonians Threaten to Desert the
Turk if Not Paid.


SOFIA, Aug. 30-Dispatches receiv-
ed today from Constantinople, Saloni-
ca, Monastir and-Adrianople, reveal an
equally satisfactory condition of af-
fairs in Macedonia. From Salonica
come reports of new riSings. At Mon
astir the insurgents are said to be
masters of the situation. Telegrams
from Adrianople declare that the in
surgent bands are continuing their
raVageS.
At the moment that the Porte is
asking Belgium to supply officers for
the Macedonian gendarmerie the
Swedish ambassador at Constantinopfe
has notified the Turkish government
that unless they receive their pay i'm
mediately the Swedish officers now at
Uskub will leave the country.
The Dnevnik says the Servian Dip
lomatic agent has notified the Porte
that two divisions of the Servian army
have been mobilized without any hos
tile intention as regards Turkey, but
they will be sent to the frontier to
prevent Albanian incursions into Ser
via.
A new outbreak is reported to have
occurred in the environs of Salonica,
and several skirmishes have taken
place between Gievgyeli and Salonica,
and there has also been a fight near
Edidjevarda, both sides losing heavily.
In the district between Kastoria and
Florina, south of Monastir, the insur-
gents have destroyed all the fortified
residences of the wealthy beys. A no.
torious brigand named Abdul Medjid
recently delivered a harangue to the
inhabitants of Tetovo, telling them to
prepare themselves to slaughter all the
Bulgarians upon the first appearance
of revolutionary bands in the neigh
borhood.
Many wounded Turkish soldiers
have been brought into Salonica from
Uskub, Seres and Monastif. The Turk
ish troops are reported to be greatly
discouraged and many deserters have
been thrown into prison.
