ANOTHER WAR IN THE SPRING.
Macedonia to Fight Turkey with Arms
Paid for by Miss stones Ransom.


Advices received in Washington make
it certain that as soon as the snow melts
in the Balkan mountains there is certain
to be war and destruction. The restrain
ing hand of Russia, which has prevented
hostilties between Bulgaria and Turkey,
is no longer forceful. and the attempts
which have been made by the Austrian
and Russian ambassadors at Constanti
nople TO induce the Sultan to behave
properly have accomplished nothing. The
revolutionary element in Macedonia has
obtained funds in some manner, and is
said to be well supplied with arms and
ammunition, while the Bulgarian govern
ment has been preparing for war all
winter, and is likely to provoke an in
vasion by the Turks. which has been pre-
vented by Russian influence for the past
three years. Being no longer in Il posi-
ton to intervene with arms, Russia will
not have So much influence.
To understand the situation it is nee
eSsary to go back three years to the
time when Miss Stone the American
missionary, was a prisoner OF the So
called Enthusiastically Il band of cOnspir-
ators representing the Macedonian com
mittee, which exists for the purpose of
emancipatng Macedonia from Turkish
rule. has its headquarters at Sophia, Bull
garia. and spent her ransom for guns
and powder. This committee is very
much like the iunta that encouraged and
directed the revolution in Cuba from 1876
to 1898. 1t collects funds. buys arms
and ammunition, and equips insurrec-
tionary parties which invade Macedonia
to take revenge upon the Turkish Off
cials for their cruelties to the people
The Bulgarian government sympathlzes
with the committee; almost every man,
woman and child in the kingdom belongs
10 it. and contributes money TOR reVolu-
tionary purposes as Il sacred duty. Up
TO this time Turkey has not attacked
Bulgaria because of fear of Russia, al

cation i'll the encouragement ana ASSIST

THE SPOT ON THE SUN.
Blemish on Old SOILS Shining Face the
Largest Seen in Many Years.

The large spot which now appears on
the face of the sun, according to the To
ledo Blade. is the largest observed in
many years. The largest spot which
appeared on the sun measured 100000
miles, and was seen i'll February, 1S9:
The present spot denotes an unusual &C
tiyity and is caused by the upheayal OF
vast amount of gaseous matter from
the interior portion of the sun This
greah volcano OF gas forces itself through
the philosophers, which is the visible sur.
face of the sun and the highly disturbed
area Ofttimes takes on a cyclonic move
ment. The central portion Of the spot
or group of spots. is generally dead black
in appearance. This central portion is
called the nucleus and the spot gener
ally shades off into light gray towards
! the edges The present spot seems te
be made up of Il group of spots; forty OF
fifty dead black patches can be observed
interningled with the lighter portions
The form changes rapidly and this
change can be noted from day to day,
and sometimes from hour to hour.
The central nucleus of the present spot
is large enough to permit the passage OF
four bodies, the size of our own earth
without grazing the edges. While the
sun spots appear black to the eye. this is
no indication that they are not highly
luminous areas, for a brilliant are light
will appear black when viewed against
the suns surface. When we look at the
side of Il house i'll the brilliant sunlight,
the open windows of that house appear
black to the eye. We know that should
we enter the house and find ourselves in
the rooms containing those windows, that
the rooms would be unusually we'll illum-
mated and quite light. The windows
only appear black in comparison with
the brightly Illuminated surface of the
house side. This illustration Will hold
good also with the appearance of sun
spots. 1t is possible that nucleus or
black portion is Il hole in which we see
a portion of the suns interior through
the outer visible philosophers, and it APP
pears black by comparison. 1t is in re-
atty more highly luminous than anything
we can imagine on the earth. The sun
revolyes on its axis once in % days, con-
sequently the present spot will soon pass
from our field of view and the disturb
ance caused by the eruption will have
subsidized before that portion of the suns
surface comes into sight.
