Ihc details of tGc l<o- nopnitSa llaSSacre the results of which we saw. have already been reported in the newspapers. The day before we SAW the bodies of the women and in fants nlassaered by the troops the Turkish authorities at Palanka had as- silred us that everything was tranquil in their district, and every possible precauton was taken to prevent us konopaitsa and finally to prevent us from visiting the church where the bodies lay. l subsequently had con vcrsations with the kaimakems of Palanka and kumanova, the vall of Esl;ub and Hilmi Pasha as to the af- fair They all excused the soldiers, but the reasons they gave did not agree. One Turkish officer said the people were killed with spent bullets. In kumanova the day VIC arrived Turk killed three-day old child, and every day produced murder. Some months ago the members of Il Servian band who had surrendered and had been deprived of their weapons were massacred in Kumanova town in front of the Austrian officers house. In the town of Uskub assassinatiOns on the streets are not uncommon, aud we heard of many cases of murders and robbcries committed by soldiers and others in the neighborhood.
 'In the Salonika district 1t is beyond a doubt that the Turks are assisting and encouraging the formation of the Greek bands to promote feud be- tween the Greeks and Bulgarians. Two horrible massacres of Bulgarians by Greeks took place not long ago, and in each instance these were made posSi- ble by the support of the Turks. Turks are found in the Greek bands, and some of the Greeks wear Turkish uniforms. The massacre of nine peas ants at Mo@ila by Turkish troops took place two G1ys before our arrival. The Italian officers who visited the spot as- sured me that tAc peasants could not in any sense be called Komitaiis. M. pemefik, the Russian civil agent, who had not visited the spot in person, was of the opinion that they might be call

ed Komitajs The district round Mo- naStif $ very bad. and in the town It. self assasjinations of Bulgarians are frequent. But some. parts of the villa yet seem to be ia q better condition. At both Resnia and Okhrida there is more order, and at both of these places we found the Italian officers respected by the population and very anxious to keep themselves informed as to all of their grievances. At Resnia the Ital- ian officer had, to some extent at any rate, succeeded in stopping the basti- nadoing of peasants by the troops when making acquisitions for arms by himself accompanying them.
 "The caza of Dibra. north of the caza of Okhrida, which is outside the sphere of reforms, is No Mans Land' full of brigands and criminals of all sorts. All those who have made things un- pleasant for themselves in their owr, neighborhood take refuge in Dibra. Albanian brigands from Dibra make raids into the surrounding villages and carry off peasants whom they force to work for them.
 Some improvement of discipline in the gendarmerie has been effected. Tn officers complain, however, that the pi.- pills who pass through the gendarmerie school and there receive better notio.,s of their duty become rapidly corrul l. ed when they are transferred to their country posts from associations with the older gendarmes and because tn y, receive no encouragement from their aEa eaaesEas

The other members of the missing Grindell party were David Ingraham, Oian Rails and J. E. Hoffman. Hoffman is the only one who ever returned to civilization He has never been able to give any definite information of the fate of his companions. iIe says. however, that the Sers Indians gre cannibais an.s that there is little hope for the survival of GrinGell and h.s followers.
 Several explorers who have visited the Tiburon islands ip the past have .abeen attacked and have narrowly es caped. About ten years ago newspa- ser man named Robinson left PheniX. AriZ., with two companions to explore the islands. For months no word came from the party It was finally estah. ,ished that Robinson was killed by tE,. natives. The fact Was brought to tht attention of the Mexican government which assisted il locating the body.

HE WALKED STRAIGHT ACROSS THE OPEN
 TOWARD TIE WOUNDED SOLDIER. jor Thomas Cruse is doing duty i'll the quartermaster's department at the present time and he takes more ac- cot.l1t of shovels than he does Of swords, but it would be a bold man of the line who would sheer at the ca reer of Major Cruse.
 Cruse was for years an officer of tii& Sixth cavalry. They say today when he picks up a sample shovel in tine quartermaster's department he handles it as though it were d carbine. In the early summer of the year 1882 Second Lieutenant Gruse= was serving in N tro0p of the Sixth down in one of the hottest parts of hot Arizona. That was Il time when tine people in Arizona had no hankering after statehood. Ther" were not so many of them then.
 There is a place ill Arizona called tie Sig DTy Wash, curious name, but one fitting {; creek bed in a rain.ess re zion. Second Lieutenant Cruse was sent out with following of six men one day on the trail of band of Apa- ches. 'lhuHe wee not enough troops ill the country at that time, and com mands were divided and subdivided in order to cover the greatest amount of territory possible and to the end of dis covering where the reds had rendeZ- voused. so that the scattered soldiers when the discovery was made might be gathered together and q descent be made upon the enemy in a body.
 Lieutenant Cruse and his little fol lowing reached the Big Dry Wash without finding the sign of an Apache Beyond the basin of the Wash was a natural fortifcation of rocks Cruse sent trooper by the right flank to make reconnaissance before ordering his men to cross the bare bed of the gulch. The trooper made detour and took peep behind the powders. He returned and reported that there wasn't an Indian in sight.
 Then the little command, Cruse lead ing, pushed down into the basin, and hades opened from behind the rocks to their front. Two of the seven saddles were emptied at the first volley, and under the sharp order of their leader the soldiers gave way and sought the shelter of the rocks to the rear
 Lieutenant Cruse did not obey his own order. He waited. and in the face of the showering bullets he lifted a wounded trooper to his saddle and bore him back to shelter
 It was supposed that the second trooper who lad fallen at the first fire of tie A,7acles was dead.

"Concerning us two, but chiefly you." And I looked in her eyes and sighed. ''If were to ask you that question. What would your answer be?'' She smiled, II guess it would be 'Yes.'"
 And she archly looked at me. T thought I was not mistaken" Said I. "my lady fair. "I guessed twas so. What I wanted to know

 Settling the Coffee.

Few persons are left who use egg for settling boiled coffee. Boiled coffee, by the way, is a misnomer, for no good coffee is ever boiled. It is brought only to the boiling point and checked there But the so called coffee, term which distinguishes it from the drip kind, set ties itself without any difficulty if handled gently and left to stand cou. pie of minutes before pouring. A ta- blespoonful or two of cold water turn. ed in at the last minute is a safeguard, but is seldom, if ever necessary.

A standpatter's Concession.

At last we have something more less
definite from the camp of the standpatters
as to the time for revising the tariff. AS
rule the subject Is left in the air. Your
average standpatter will admit that the
schedules are not sacrosanct: that some of
them need revision. and that business con-
dltions are very different now from what
they were when the Dingley bill was
framed But pressed to name time for
the work of revision to begin he will smile
and say, when the time is ripe"
Speaking at Des Moines last night Secre-
tary Shaw said
mo party can ever revise the tariff in
safety. and the only time to risk the ex-
pertinent is at an extraordinary session
Immediately following the inauguration Of
"a new administration
Iowa is the home of Gov. Cummins. prob
ably the leader of the republican revision
lists. He is a candidate for another term
az governor. and part OF the opposition to
him is based upon his attitude on the tariff.
Secretary Shaw Is understood to be can
ddate for the presidency, and those Who
favor him are, as rule, opposed to tariff
revision. In these two facts may be found
the Importance of last nights deliverance.
May IL be assumed that this is Mr.. Shaws
platform? If nominated and elected Presi-
dent In 1908, will he call Congress together
in extra session in the spring of 1909 for the
purpose of revising the tariff? II his words
bear such construction his candidacy takes
on a very interesting aspect. The country
will expect to hear from his republican
rivals on the same subject, and we should
presently know precisely where we are at
on the tariff question. The Secretary should
go lust enough further to set the matter
entirely at rest; and in so doing he would
serve his party as well as himself.
But we are going to have the tariff dis
cussed before 1908. 1t will enter into this
years congressional campaigns. AS The
star pointed out yesterday, John Sharp VIII
Iiams is low tariff man. and II he presides
over the next House will name ways and
means committee expressly instructed to
bring In a bill revising the tariff. Such
bill could not of course become law. be-
cause the Senate would kin it, but 1t would
serve to introduce the tariff issue sharply
into the presidential campaign, and force an
expression from the republicans Of much
more definite character than they have of
late been accustomed to make.
