COULD USE THE ROAD.
irish Solcier's Great idea When Cover
Was Badly Needed.

The following colloquy is said to
have actually occurred during one of
the earlier battles in the Philippines:
A detachment of American infantry,
under orders to support section OF
Capt. Reilly's battery, were halted for
quite while on perfectly fiat mill
tary road in full view and fine range
OF the Filipino trenches. OF course, to
lie fiat on the road was the only avail
able use Of cover"
In this detachment was an Irishman
who had served his time with the col
ors in the British army before he en-
listed with Uncle Sam. AS a recruit
he had been very prone to tell how the
British soldiers did everything. AS a
result he was necessarily piled with
questions as TO his experiences. While
the bullets were "plopping' down the
road and kicking up the gravel, a
young Yankee suddenly asked:
Say, Mike. what do the British SOL
dlers do with their heads in place
like this?"
Quick as fash came the retort:
"A British soldier has no head,
sorr!"
After fun two-minute pause. Mike
continued:
However, be that as it may, wish
could pick up this d. road and
stan it ON edge feminist mel"

ages Bulgaria to persist in her present

Great POWERS
BADLY DIVIDED
Real Gravity Of the Bull
garian Situation.
VITAL INTERESTSAT STAKE

Russia, France and Great Britain Are
Pulling Together Against Germany
and Austria, With italy Occupying
Middle Ground-Conditions Com
pei Russia to Take Less Active
Part Than Her Allies.
London, Oct. THE real gravity of
the Bulgarian situation lies in the fact
that it., like the Moroccan situation, is
one of the issues which divides the
great powers of Europe in the gradual
reforming of their international align
ments. In the present instance the
interests of Russia, France and Great
Britain are largely in common, against
those of Germany and Austria, with
Italy occupying middle ground. Rus.
sia has a vital interest in Bulgaria,
owing to racial conditions, geograph-
ical proximity and Black sea prestige;
but Russia has not been entirely free
to act with Germany, having adverse
interests on her Baltic frontier. This
has left France and Great Britain to
play the chief part in Bulgarian read
justment, with Russia silent but
deeply interested spectator and ally.
On the other hand Germany has
first pushed her influence toward Mo-
rocco in the Southwest and then to-
ward Turkey, Persia, the Balkans and
the Near East. In these movements
Austria has usually been found CO.
operating with Germany, partly
through the bonds of the triple alli-
ance and partly because of personal
interests in the contiguous territory
of the Balkans. This in turn has
famed into activity the old animosity
between Italy and Austria, threatening
to disrupt the triple alliance and to
group Italy with France and Great
Britain. This gradual regrouping of
the powers has been affected by three
recent Observation-Disclosures adoption
of constitution, the temperance of
the Moroccan issue and the present in
dependence of Bulgaria-in all of
which the new alignment of the pow
ers is becoming manifest, with Great
Britain, France and Russia occupying
common ground, Germany and Austria
cooperating and Italy in somewhat
neutral attitude. AS in the Moroccan
affair the indications are that media
ton or an international congress will
seek to arrange some working basis as
to Bulgaria, but meantime the intrigu-
ing among the powers for influence
over Bulgaria and other portions Of
the Near East is likely to go on I'm.
abated and to be an important factor
in the new grouping of the powers Of
Europe.
