Turkey" has accomplished the first
step in it's dream of freedom, but it
has also precipitated events that may
lead to a European war, in which lat
ter event there is no way of foretell-
ing what may be the ultimate end of
Turkey or Turkish influence.
The most momentous shadow that
today hangs over the Near Orient is
the declaration of Prince Ferdinand
at the ancient capital of Bulgaria,
that Bulgaria sis and of right ought
to be" an independent nation, and
by his proclamation he has cut loose
from Turkey. For thirty years Bull
garia has been actually free, but nom
inally a Turkish principality, though
it has never paid tribute. This final
breaking of ties is a direct challenge,
and it was followed Immediately by
such actual warlike preparations on
the part of Bulgaria that Turkey, even
if 1t wished to do so, could scarcely

died SUDDENLY
OF HEART TROUBLE

Mrs. Mary E. McCardle, wife of Joe
c. McCardle, died suddenly this morn
ing at the Windsor annex from heart
disease. Mrs. McCardle appeared as
well as usual last night and went to
the show. Shortly after retiring she
got sick and her symptoms soon be-
came so alarming that a physician was
called in, but in spite of all that could
be done she died about 4 o'clock this
morning.
Mrs. McCardle was about so years of
age and she and her husband moved
to the city from one of the storm
swept districts about two months ago
and had been residing at the Windsor
annex.
The funeral will be at II o'clock to-
morrow at the Carter cemetery.

garia has followed the example of
Roumania, and later Servia, which
were both Turkish dependencies.
Of all the buffer states" Bulgaria
has made the greatest progress and is
the one most to be feared by Turkey.
True. the latter country has probably
four times the military resources of
Bulgaria, but the Bulgarians are
awaking from a long sleep into a
proud racial and national life. Back

indicated when Prince Ferdinand de-

inspiring the Bulgars to plan a re-
generated empire is also stimulating
the Servians to activity. In 1878 Aus

"A knight for Day." the big
musical ha, ha, will be seen in Licking
ton Saturday, matinee and.night. This
company has just completed a very
successful run in New York and Bos-
ton, and the company is the original.
The story of Jonathan Joy, waiter and
bogus knight, and of lilly Day, "ser-
want lady" and feminine fascinator, is
ludicrous conceit. The character of
Jonathan Joy, the waiter. is one of
many grotesque angles, each product
i've of much merriment. The staging
of the production at the outset of the
engagement elected the general COM
mendation of everyone. No such ar
tistic grouping of girls has ever been
the fortune of a loyalty presented
galety. The business going toward
the expression of many OF the song
effects is also for the most part in
genious. The pUtpourri of funny gyra-
tions and quirk introduced in "Hurrah,
Hurray and Hurroo for that" is a
screaming medley. The business of
Jonathan and lilly with the trunk in
their initial song, What Fools We
Mortals Be-" including the pigeon-toe,
run-round dance, is also excellent
laughing matter.
