SICK MAN WANTED CHANGE.
More Than Willing to Make Transfer
with Physician.

A Syracuse business man who, be-
sides being extremely active and am
bilious, has much sense of humor,
was taken sick with slight attack OF
pneumonia. His physician, aware that
1t would be task to keep his high
strung patient in bed, sought to i'm
press on him the seriousness of the
ailment and the necessity of absolute
rest; all of which the sick man lis
tened to in a bored manner. Never
theless he consented to obey the doc
tor.
But this enforced inactivity ranked
in him; and each succeeding day
found the patient importuning the
medical man attendant to allow him
to get out to business. Then, dis
gusted, he would lie back to cast i'm
precautions at the inexorable physi-
clan.
One morning the physician, after
having been up all night On an i'm
portant case, appeared at his patients
house at the usual hour He had hard
ly stuck his haggard face inside the
door, however, before the man in the
bed gave him a quick glance and sat
up.
"Eh? calculated the patient. Then
showing out his hand to grasp the doc
tors satchel, he added: doc, guess
you'd better get into bed here and
let me go out with the medicine

diplomacy. Bulgaria was hacked, cut
down, amputated into tuppenny-ha-
penny principality, vassal state of
Turkey, bound to pay fixed annual
tribute, to be determined later.
Since then Bulgaria has been devot-
ing her efforts to educating her people,
to building up the most efficient fight
ing machine owned by small power
in Europe, and to skillfully carrying
on Il propaganda in Macedonia calcu-
lated to advance her interests in that
country.
At the same time the Bulgarian
statesmen have been watching and
waiting an opportunity to proclaim the
country's independence. Actually, they
have always been free; nominally, the
sultan has been their suzerain. In
Prince Ferdinand they had ready
tool at hand. He is vain, ambitious
and equally crafty. AS statesman he
has proved himself no mean antagon-
list during the 20 years of his reign,
and he has been willing to sacrifice
anything for tho privilege of calling
himself king.
Prince Tolerated for His Brains.
So Europe has had the curious spec
tacle of a ruler, selfish and bound to
his own ends, working hand in glove
with his people for the same result. 1t

nizing that he is an able ruler, and
let it go at that.
In the Turkish revolution, brought
about by the Young Turks party, Bull
garia saw the opportunity she had
awaited so long. In fact, some ex-
tremists may be prone to believe that
Bulgaria had hand in the organiza-
ton of the Young Turks.
Ferdinand saw instinctively the best
way to accomplish what he wanted.
Austria, trembling over the safety of
her tenure of Herzegovina and Bosnia,
was anxious for any plan that would
undermine the treaty of Berlin. Very
likely Austria was only too happy to
have a small nation like Bulgaria start
the ball rolling, rather than run the
risk of bringing down upon her own
head the wrath of the great powers.
Bulgarian statesmen and army Off
GERS have repeatedly declared that all
Bulgaria wanted before declaring war
against Turkey was the moral and
neutrality-suspicious. the latter
backing of one of the great powers.
Apparently Bulgaria has that now in
Austria. If Italy, Russia and Germany

whereby 100000 trained men could be
put in the field on the opposite side of
the Macedonian frontier in two weeks.
In another two weeks two more armi es
of 100000 men each could be placed
on war footing.
The army is divided into nine mill

quarters of a division which, on a war
footing, would become an army corps.
Similarly the entire army is organized

THE BIRTH RATES OF EUROPE.
Highest in the Eastern and Southern
Part of the Continent.

Nearly every country in Europe pub
fishes summary of the information
obtained in the census of it's popula-
ton, which is taken every five or ten
years. By studying these condensed
reports interesting comparisons as to
the growth of population may be OBJ
tanned.
For instance, it is found that in pro-
portion to population the birth rate is
larger in eastern than in western Eu-
rope and in the southern than in the
northern part of the continent.
The birth rate is more than twice as
large in Russia as it is in France. In
Normandy and the southwestern part
of France, where the birth rate is low
est, the births at times fall as low as
Is to the thousand inhabitants in a
year. But in Russia there are many
districts, as in Orenburg, where the
births are as high as 60 thousand in
year.

Awful Case of Scabies-Body Mass

Tortures Yield to Cuticura.

"A young woman came to our city
mission in most awful condition physi-
cally. Our doctor examined her and
told us that she had scabies (the itch),
incipient paresis, rheumatism. etc.,
brought on from exposure. Her poor
body was mass of sores from scratch
ing and she was not able to retain solid
food. We worked hard over her for seven
weeks but we could see little improve
ment. One day bought cake of
Cuticura Soap and a bottle of Cuti-
cura Resolvent, and we bathed our
patient we'll and gave her a full dose
of the Resolvent. She slept better that
night and the next day 1 got box of

young woman was able to look for
position, and she is now strong and well.

Commercially, American interest in
the Balkan states affected by recent
developments in that section of the
world are not very important, and it
matters little what their political af-
filiations or conditions may be, so long
as American interests are on equality
as affecting trade and the rights of
its citizens with those Of European
countries. Imports from and exports
to Bulgaria for the last year for which
statistics are available practically bal
anced, amounting in each case to
about $2SO,OOO.
In diplomatic matters it probably
would be more satisfactory to the Uni
ted States to deal directly with Bull
garia as an independent sovereignty,
instead of through the medium of Fur
key, as now. The case of Miss Ellen
Stone, Che American missionary, who
several years ago was captured by
Bulgarian brigands and held for ran
som, is an instance in point. There
were long and tedious delays in secur-
ing her resease, which, it is believed,
could have been avoided had the Uni
ted States been able to deal with Bull
garia at first hand.

After she had been tucked in bed
for some time and was supposedly
asleep, the youngster called her fa-
ther and told him she wished he would

she said, "and good spanking would.

BULGARIA MOVED BY
HATRED OF THE TURK

For Centuries the Domination of the Sran Has Called Proud Little
Nation Now Determined, with Arms If Necessary to Throw Off

- ONDON.-For those who know
Bulgaria and the Bulgarians it
is not hard to understand what
A Prince Ferdinand's proclamation
OF the independence of the
country means to his people. 1t is the
consummation Of 80 years of patient,
crafty, never-swerving effort, always
minds of statesmen who were not
afraid to match their wits with those
of the prime ministers of the great
western powers and whose rewards
were occasional victories. 1t is the
consummation, too, of the prayers and
hopes of the 100000 people of Bull
garia ever since the treaty of Berlin,
dictated by Disraeli, deprived them of
the advantages secured for them by
Russia in the treaty of San Stefano.
A westerner can hardly appreciate
the Bulgar's hatred for the Turk. 1t
is the relic of centuries of slavery,
during the time when Europe was
awaking from the sleep Of the middle
ages, and it is hatred that knows no
bounds, no notifications, that is un-
dying and impossible of mitigation.
Bulgarians have never forgotten that
in the olden days, when western Eu-
rope was for the most part sunk in
barbarism, the cZar of all the Bulgars
dominated the entire Balkan peninsu-
la, and the Bulgarian church was
treasury of learning and art.

shan, last of the Balkan czars, to Fer
dinand, czar of the Bulgars, and, in
deed, the Bourbon blood of Ferdinand
contains not one drop of the fluid that
flowed in the veins of the medieval
hero, but to the Bulgars the proclama
ton of Tirnova represents a return to
the old estate.
On the fatal field of Kosovo, "the
plain of the blackbirds," so called
from the hordes of scavengers that de-
scended on the slain, June Is, 1889,
Sultan Amurath dealt the final blow to
the Servian and Bulgarian armies COM
manded by King Lazarus. From that
day until the last century the Ottoman
empire dominated eastern Europe and
the Balkan peninsula was turned into
a second Asia Minor. 1t is one of the
proudest boasts of the Bulgars that
for more than four centuries they
were the bulwark of Europe against
the Mohammedan armies, and that
when they did fall they fell gloriously,
fighting to the last.
Then Came Degeneration.

Kosovo the Bulgar race degenerated

Washington.-The position OF the
American government in regard to the
acute situation in the Balkans is large
ly that Of a looker-on. 1t is situa-
ton, the officials say, with which the
signatories to the treaty of Berlin
have to do. The United States does
not tolerate the interference of the
European governments with American
affairs and this government, not being
a signatory to the Berlin treaty, has
no voice in complications or develop
ments which may arise out Of the
CARRYING into effect or the breaking of
that convention. If the Bulgarian in
dependence movement proves success
full and a new government is estab-
lished, some notification to that effect
will be communicated to the United
States; likewise any change in the
political condition of Bosnia and
herzegovina, which, according to the
Berlin treaty, were, with a certain
reservation, specifically named to be
occupied by Austria.

A short time ago Germany was the

France and Russia were banded to-

the total force of the cavalry corps
would be 1000 sabers. So far as
mounts go, it has the best Hungarian
or Russian horses that money can
buy, quite up to those in the American
service.
The artillery has recently been
equipped with 80 brand-new six-gun
field batteries of the Creusot make,
and, all told, probably has about 600
quick-firing guns, not counting ma
chine guns and heavy siege pieces
The infantry, which is splendid fight
ing material, carries the Mannlicher
five-shot rife and knife bayonet, and
is largely officered by men who have
been under fire in the Macedonian
revolt. 1t was favorite trick, while
the revolution lasted, for officers to
be given leave of absence for an in
definite length of time, to visit their
friends. They went across the frontier
with the insurgent chetas.
Perhaps the greatest military advan-
tage Bulgaria possesses lies in the
fact that both her personnel and equip
ment are at a maximum of efficiency.
This is based on statements by Off
GERS of her general staff.
Provisions of the Treaty.
The principality of Bulgaria was
created by the treaty of Berlin,
signed July 13, 1878. 1t was ordered
by the treaty that Bulgaria should be
constituted an autonomous and tribu-
tary principality under the .suzerainty
of the sultan, with a Christian govern
ment and a national militia. The
prince of Bulgaria should be freely
elected by the population and con-
consent of the powers, but no member
of any reigning house of the great
European powers should be elected.
Eastern Rumelia (since it's union
with Bulgaria, also known as South
ern Bulgaria) was created by the
treaty of Berlin. Signed July 13, 1873.
1t was to remain under the direct po-
litical and military authority of the sui
tan, under conditions of administrative
autonomy, with governor general
nominated by the porte. On Septem-
ber 18, 1885, the government was over
thrown by a revolution and the union
of the province with Bulgaria pro-
claimed.
The estimated area of the principal
ity of Bulgaria proper is 24,3S0 Eng

virtually torn in pieces, the czar's gov
ernment will naturally demand it's
share of the benefits. Its eyes will
naturally be turned to the Bosphorus
and the Dardanelles and demand
will be made for the renewal of the
embargo upon the passage of warships
through the straits. Thus Russia will
hope to gain the naval advantage of
her great littoral upon the Black sea
instead of having to depend upon the
ports of the Baltic, which are practi-
cally ice-bound every winter.
May Split with England.
And this is where the split with
England may come. The opening Of
the straits would place Russia in a
position to contest at an early day
her supremacy in the Levant. With
her great interests in Egypt and with
the necessity for guarding the Suez
route to India against all attack, it
would become imperative upon her in
the course OF few years to keep a
vastly more powerful and expensive
fleet in the Mediterranean than is at
present needful.
The reward offered to Italy for con-
senting to the Austrian territorial ag-
grandisement is no doubt hand in
the colonization of Tripoli, towards
which she has long had aspirations.
This concession is not unlikely to suit
Germany's plans, since it may create
suspicion and jealousy on the part Of
France, aiming as it does to a COM
plete preponderance of influence in
the north of Africa.
Germany cannot but be pleased also
at the blow to the Young Turk move
ment, inevitable from the loss of so
much territory to the porte, even
though the hold on 1t was little more
than nominal. Down to the time of
the Young Turk uprising, Germany
was the most influential of the powers
at Constantinople The sultan relied
on the kaiser for support against the
rest of Europe and the kaiser hoped
to secure great advantages-frst in
the way of railroad concessions and
ultimately in territory in the Turkish
regions of Asia. The Young Turk sue
cess dispelled the German influence
and curbed German ambitions. Ed
ward of England supplanted William
as the best friend of the Ottoman gov
ernment. Anything that might tend
to cause reaction in Turkey, there
fore, could not fail to give satisfaction
in Berlin.
