MUSIC AS 4 LIFE SAVER
Tiny Girl Visits Chicago to See
Harpist Whose Playing saved
Her Life.

A little girl has come all the way from
England to Chicago to hear again the
sweet strains of a harp played by a young
woman whose wonderful music brought
the small maid back TO health a year ago,
after she had been given up as incurable
by the greatest physicians OF London.
The little girl is 6-year-old Natalie Fern
wood, Of Heathcote, a fashionable suburb
of London. The young woman is Miss
Clara Louise Thurston of 1868 Emerald
avenue, whom King Edward called "the
girl with the musical fingers"
Two years ago Miss Thurston went to
Germany to study under Herr Franz Peo-
nitz the great harpist. After a year she
returned to America by the way OF Ire
and and England. She stopped for a time
i'm Heathcotc. and while there heard of a
treasured harp possessed by the Fernwood
family. The instrument was an heirloom,
and was played long ago by the grand
mother OF little Natalie. Miss Thurston ex-
pressed a desire to play on the harp,
which had been untouched for years. Her
wish was granted and tho instrument was
brought forth from it's massive case.
The girls dainty fingers picked out from
the musical strings a gentle, soothing lul-
laby. and a. she played-ever so softly
the strains reached the ears OF the little
invalid. who, i'm a nearby room VAS vast

ment prohibits by law all conversation to
Professionalism; the Greeks since achiev-
ing independence have enacted laws which
make religious teaching in the schools
compulsory. The Turks would never have
tolerated the missionaries If they had at
tempted to convert Mohammedans A few
Turks who have deserted Mohammedanism
are said to have mysteriously disappeared.
And it has been found almost impossible
to convert Jews, so only the Bulgarians
are left to the missionaries.
TIL Turks accuse the American mis-
sionaries OF propagating a revolutionary
spirit among the Bulgars. OF this, how
ever, they are not directly guilty. though
the enlightenment of a people like the
Bulgarians and the teaching of American
ideals naturally tend to fire them with a
desire for liberty. FREDERICK MOORE.

under the Moslem is to our minds a thing
impossible, the creation, with the assist
ance of European officers, of a formidable
Turkish army. is altogether too probable
for our good
mDrovements In Sofia.
Thirty years ago, when Bulgaria became
Independent, Sofia was a very dirty town
without a street paved with anything but
cobblestones. and with but one house Of
any pretensions-the Turkish Konak.
Today, besides a palace and a parliament
tary building, there are a national bank.
a postoffice, a military academy, a ma
tional theater, many other government
buildings and several vast barracks.
There are parks and public gardens
where bands play on summer evenings.
New streets and avenues have been laid
out, and some of the narrow ones of
Turkish times rave been widened. Substan@
tial shops and hotels mark the business
quarter, and avenues with modern houses
the residential quarter.
Still Sofia reminds one OF a lanky girl
whose spindle shanks and lean arms have
outgrown her pinafore. The dwellings by
standing far apart try to extend the long,
new avenues and cover the gawky child,
but i'm places it is absolutely bare.
But the streets of Sofia have not alto
gether parted with the past; there are
many touches of Turkish times left. Many
of the old shops are dark, low and dingy,
though the shopkeepers no longer block
the pavements with their wares, sitting
crosslegged among them.
An ancient Turkish bath and an old
morgue stand side by side In front of the
market place or one of the principal corn

most of the Mohammedans of Sofia have
gone back to Turkey-is shortly to be torn
down, and the old bath has given place to
a splendid new one about the size of a
first class London hotel, for the baths of
Sofia have some little reputation. the water
coming from mineral springs at the temper

The Bulgarians owe much to the Ameri-

directly. The Americans translated the

A CASE OF
 MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

Washington, D. C., Feb. l. | Senator Davis of Arkansas used to be one of the most ardent of the Presidents admirers. but since he became q Senator his admiration has cooled percepti bly,. It happened because the President, III an abstracted mom- ent, made blunder.
 When Senator Davis was Governor of Arkansas he had several occasions to come to Washington. and always lie called at the White House to pay his respects. One of tile first things he did when he came to the capital as d Senator was to call at the White House. The President greeted him with his accustomary vehemenee, calling him "Senator, ' which was de- liz gIting evidence to Senator Davis that he Was remembered.
 Thereupon Senator Davis had the temerity to ask him if he was going to run again for the Presidency, that being the burn ing question of that particular hour.
 If I could only carry North Carolina, Senator; if I could only carry South Carolina, and break tie Solid South, l might, Senator, he replied, with some evidence of excitement. To carry the Solid South, Sen ator,e he continued, would put an end to sectionalisn forever, and l should esteem that the crown- Ing glory of my political career. Yes, Senator, if L could just be assured of carrying North Caro- lima, l admit l should be sorely tempted.
 Senator Davis stood by in some amazement, for lie imagined tic President did in fact contemplate running again. Finally. getting his breath, for lie was disquieted by the prospect of what would happen to the Democracy should the President run again. Senator Davis asked why lie was 50 eager to carry North Carolina. "Wouldn't some other Southern State do as well?a Senator Davis inquired.
 Then 1t was the President be- trayed himself. For q moment he stood in embarrassed silence. Why, aren't you Overmau of North Carolina?' he shouted
 Senator Davis and Senator Overman are built somewhat on the same dimensions, and ole might at a glance be mistaken for the other. Senator Davis admits as much, and lie protests he k not sensitive about that.
 But" lie explains, Il had thought was chummy with the President, and he does hot know ne from Overman. Dallas (TeXas) News.
