otrOs son solteros, con casa propia,
donde sufriran sus enfermedades; otros

Ahora bien: estando probable que en-
tiempos normales solo Ell uno por ciento

porte complaining Of the nopfulfll=
forfns IN MaCeuOfifa. Dufgar1a urgent
ly requests the porte Immediately to
take the necessary measures to end a
condition of affairs which is so preju-
dicial to the interests of both countries,
and points out that the application Of
the postponed reforms should be easy,
owing to the fact that the revolution
lists are not hampering the government
at present by any interference. The
note concludes:
eff the porte is actuated by a sincere
desire to ameliorate the lot of its Bull
agrian subjects and renew its former re-
lations with the principality the re-
sponsibility rests solely upon the
porte"
1t is learned here that Colonel Ben
dorff, the Russian agent, has suddenly
left Sofia. 1t is understood that his
mission at Sofia was to endeavor to pre-
vent the Bulgarian government from
raising the Macedonian question at this
time, owing to the acuteness of the fal
eastern crisis, which is now engaging
Russia's entile attention.

from his old remembrance OF the house.
The door was opened and his name an

rose not at his entrance, only looked to-

This was the meeting after five years
