BALKAN SCARE OVER
LAST VEsTleE OF WAR CLOUD
HAS DISAPPEARED.
ARMY RESERVES ARE DISCHARGED
Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria Agree
to Refer Annexation Problem
to A~rbitrators.

London, Eng.-The last vestige
of the Balkan war cloud has disap-
peared as the result of the yielding of
Austria Hungary and Bulgaria to the
proposals laid down in the tentative
program for the international confer
ence, announcements Of which are ex-
pected to be received soon by the va
rious European chancelleries. The
chief developments of the last "a
hours are: The agreement of Aus
tria-Hungary that the annexation of
Bosnia and Herzegovina shall be dis
cussed by the conference, provided
that assurances are given that no at
tempt to set aside the annexation will
be made.
The decision by Bulgaria to make
financial compensation to Turkey.
These were two obstacles in the
way of peace.
Bulgaria's change of front is due to
the insistence of Gear Ferdinand and
reports from the deputies who came
from owe the country for the opening
of the Sobranje Tuesday that the bus
mess interests demanded a speedy
settlement of the difficulties.
Had the cabinet not supported Fer
dinand he would have dismissed the
body and organized a new cabinet in
sympathy with him.
Sixty thousand Bulgarian reserves
were discharged Wednesday, the army
now standing at it's normal strength.

MINISTER DROPS DEAD.
Rev. E. Jay Cooke, Nephew Of Civil
War F%inanciers.

Schenectady, N. Y.-Rev. E, Jay
Cooke, rector of St. Stephens
Episcopal church at Schuylerville, N.
Y, dropped dead Of heart disease in
front of the waiting room of the
Schenectady railway company Tuesday

Jay Cooke, the great financier of civil
wal times, after whom he was named,
He had held pastorates in Cuba, Ba-
tavia, and Warsaw, N. Y; Mortified,
Mimi; St. Paul, Clinton. Iowa, Cleve-
land, Manchester, N. H., Albuquerque.
N. NJ, and Schuylerville.
1t is supposed that DR.. Cooke came

mat mas hinges.
The hinges are simply pieces of tin,
and soon break, but buy a pair Of
small steel hinges and screws for ten
cents and a white china knob and
screw for five cents and add these
to your cracker box. Then instruct
the maid to empty all dust pan gath
erings into the box, instead of the coal
bod. Nothing should go into the coal
scuttle or hod but coal and nut shells.
One or two ten-cent boxes of paint
will cover the box with the aid of q

Nourishing Drink.-So many now
take for luncheon a n%ourishing drink
at a soda fountain and some substi-
tute it for a breakfast. Thus, an egg
shaker at home has often proved a
most sensible investment. This can
be purchased at a druggist supply
house or procured by order of any or
binary druggist. Buy a deep, fiaring
lumber along with the egg shaker.
The shaker costs $3.50 and is OF
white metal, silver lined and triple
nickel plate on outside with an air
tight cover. One strictly fresh Egg, a
heaping t%easpoonful of matted milk, a
dash of either sugar or salt, then fill
the glass three-quarters full of rich
milk and you have a most excellent
substitute for a breakfast.
A Novel Idea.-Where insertions of
either lace or embroidery are used for
trimming, place a fiat steel or case
knife between the insertion and ma
terial. Run the scissors along the
steel and you will find it will be much
easier to cut the material and 1t will
prevent all possibility of cutting the
insertion.
Making Beds.-A hospital-made bed
is a constant source of satisfaction
and comfort. The bottom sheet should
be put on and tucked in separate and
distinct from any other covering, and
should be drawn as tight as a drum
head, without a wrinkle. All tuck-ins
must extend under the mattress as far
as possible, thus, if the sheet be
wide, the weight of the occupant will
hold it tight.
Towels,-When there is any danger
of towels being hung or thrown over
nails or anything metal where. rust
may stain, sew on about three inches
of narrow white tape in the middle
and on the edge Of the hem at each
end. Fasten the tape securely only
at each end by turning in the edge
and hemming, being sure to fasten the
end of the thread. In this way the
tape lies fiat lengthwise of the hem.
out of sight from the right side of
the towel and never in the way when
ironing, yet when needed the edge of
the towel in the exact middle nat

to slip over q nail or hook. All wash
cloths should be treated the same way.

CASTRO'S FIAT
STILL STANDS
PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA IG-
NoREs ULTIMATUM FROM
NETHERLANDS.
READY FOR EVENTUALITIES
The venezueIans Believe Beyond
Question That the Dutch Are
Preparing to Blockade
Their Ports.

Willemstandt, Nov. 1.-The Neither.
land government fixed November 1, as
the limit of time for Venezuela to re-
woke the decree of President Castro
issued on May IA, prohibiting the
trans shipment of goods for Venezuela
and ports at Curacao. President
Castro has refused to revoke this
decree, but Is yet so far as is known
here the Netherlands government
has not decided upon definite action.
There has been much activity here
of late; but in an interview Sunday
the governor of Curacao said that
Holland ought to have assurance that
Venezuela had not revoked the de-
cree of the last hour of the day fixed
according to the ultimatum by taking
any active measure. He believed that
this governments has made ample
preparations for any eventuality, and
he added that a statement would
doubtless be issued Monday nou
ing the position of Holland and
Venezuela and what action it was pro.
posed to take.
The opinion is held among Nava;
officials here that no direct steps
would be taken within a week and it
is understood that the battleship Jacob
Van H~eemskerck will leave here
Monday following her custom fro
target practice.
The Van Heemskerck and the pro.
tected Cruiser Friensland, which are
o in this port still have on board
the superf1uous equipments which
would be discarded in time of war.
The report is current that Captain
Snethlage who is in command of the
fleet has been promoted to Rear Ad.
miral.
Receives important Telegram.
Saturday evening the governor Of
Curacao received an important tele.
gram from Holland and he at once
called a meeting of his council and
commander of the warships. Deliber.
lions were lengthy, but the result has
not been made public.
The people of Curacao are confident
that the ships now here will soon be
reinforced by the battleships Hertog
Hendrix, from the East Indies, and
the DeRuijteer and the cruiser
Utrecht, from Holland.
The protected cruiser Geldersland
is also in these waters.
For the past few days there has
been a m here that Holland
would send the governor of Surinam
Dutch GUIANA to Venezuela, as its
confidential agent in response to the
proposal made by President Castro
that he would treat with Holland and
with regard to the question at issue
only through a personal representative
but no confirmation of this can be had
and its truth is doubted.
There is no question, however. that
