Once at a Feast man was seated

attention by the nobility of his appear

noble-looking neighbor would say what
he looked as If ne could say. The feast
progressed but the noble-looking man

his side grew more and more expectant
that his neighbor would say something,
and that when he did it would be worth

woRK1NG UNDER DIFF cUnT1Es


General de Giorgis, the italian gem
eral who is supposed to have begun the
task OF reorganizinz the Macedonian
gendarmerie, must occupy one Of the
most unenviable public positions in the
world, judging from current reports Of
the restrictions by which he is sur
rounded. In the first place, he has
scarcely q vestige of real authority. He
cannot even send commands to the
Turkish or other officers who are sup
posed to be his subordinates. His in
|structions must be sent through the
diplomatic agent Of the country to
which the officer happens to belong.
Theoretically, the latter is expected to
obey them, SO long as they do not con-
f1ict with Turkish laws and regulations.
There appears to be nothing to prevent
the Turks from blocking any proceed
ings of which they do not approve.
Moreover, the general is said to be
hampered at every turn by the sus-
picions anmd jealousies of the Austrian
and Russian representatives. To in
crease his difficulties the foreign Off
GERS, on whom he must rely, are said
to be entirely ignorant of the languages
and conditions of the country. Even his

from distance by three Japanese
sharp-shooters, who were concealed in
pit in the side of hill. AS they con-

ordered to drive them off or capture
them. Ten of our men crept to the
other side Of the pit while the rest of us
advanced, firing, but were unable to hit
them, as their heads were seldom visi-
BILE for more than a second. We got
close up and called on them to surren-

knocking over four of our men. We

STATE OFFICERS ERR
Prosecute Secretary of British
Embassy for Speed
ing an Auto.

Boston, Sept. 27.-Acting Secretary
of State Adee today telegraphed Gov.
Bates requesting him to take the prop
er action regarding the fining of Hugo
Gurney, third secretary of the British
embassy $50 by Justice Phelps at Lee
yesterday for contempt of court and
excessive driving of an automobile.
Adee cites the federal statue which
provides that any process served on
the public minister of foreign coun-
try is void and the officer executing
such process shall be deemed a viO-
lator of the law of nations and be sub
ject TO Imprisonment and fine.
In the absence of the governor Lieut.
Gov. Guild has started an investiga-
ton.
The Case I'm Point.
Pittsfield. Mass, Sept. 27.-Hugh
Gurney. third secretary of the British
embassy, was arrested and fined in the
police court at Lee for violating the
automobile speed ordinance. AS a re-
suit the United States government will
have to apologize to Great Britain, and
the governor of Massachusetts will
have to secure the return of the
amount of the fine to Mr.. Gurney.
More than that, the deputy sheriff
who arrested the British secretary, the
town attorney that appeared against
him. and the police judge who fined
him, are liable to Imprisonment for
three years and to pay a fine as well
for violating the law of nations.
Mr.. Guney was arrested by Deputy
Sheriff D. a. Noble. of StOckbridge,
who claimed that he was running his
automobile at a rate exceeding 20
miles an hour.
State Department Acts Promptly.
Washington, D. c., Sept. 27.-The
state department telegraphed Gov.
Bates. of Massachusetts, last night sug
gesting the necessity of taking prompt
steps to secure the diplomatic immu-
nifty" of the secretary of the British
embassy.
1t is stated at the department that
the matter may be far more serious
than the local officials at Lee seem to
regard it. BY constitutional and stat
utOry law the persons attached to an
embassy are expressly relieved from
any legal responsibility. and the eX
emption even extends TO domestic serv-
ants.
