Germany's Game.
A short time ago Germany was the
isolated power Of Europe. England.
France and Russia were banded to-
gether to hold her in curb. Austria
and Italy viii be closely bound to her
again and Russia may be detached in
whole or part from the other drei-
bund.
This Is already indicated In the dis
patches The treaty OF Berlin, which
settled the status alike of Bulgaria
and of Bosnia and Herzegovina, being
virtually torn in pieces. the czar's gov
ernment will naturally demand its
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

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.

And this is where the split with
England may come The opening Of
the straits would place Russia in q
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 a few years TO keep a

present needful.
The reward offered 10 Italy for con-
senting to the Austrian territorial ag-
grandisement is no doubt a hand In
the colonization of Tripon. towards
which she has long had aspirations.
This concession is not unlikely to suit

The building stands on little hill,

solent at the dinner table and was cor
rected by the housemother, the wOn,-
an who has charge of the house. He
remained insolent, and the case was
reported to Mr. Wengierski on his re-
turn. The director asked the boy to
apologize TO the housemother, but this
he refused TO do He then said he
would take away the lads swimming
privilege. and that beginning with the
next day none of the boys would be
allowed 70 speak TO him or take any
notice OF him until he had apologized
The director then convened the
court and asked whether the punish
ment he had named was just All
agreed that It was and ratified the
decision. The next day while all tlie
boys were in swimming this one sat
on the bank Of the river and thought.
That night after all the boys were in
bed and Mr.. Wengierski was in the
room with them The culprit spoke np

ing 10 Capt. Mischicoff of the general
stan plans had been mapped out
whereby 200. 900 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 armies
OF 100000 men each could be placed
on war footing.
Military service Is compulsory. two
years being the minimum term, and a
man stays Is years In the reserve
after he has completed his time with
the colors., Consequently. the whole
able-bodied male population of the
country has been trained in arms.
The army is divided into nine mill
tary districts, each OF them the head
quarters OF division which, on a war
footing. would become an army corps
Similarly the entire army is organized
on a skeleton basis. The regiments.
whose peace footing is 500 men. would
be increased TO the strength of the

1000 men.
Drilled on American System.
Bulgaria's cavalry has been drilled
on the American system. Shock tao
tics are never used. and the men are
taught to make themselves of use in
reconnoitering and scouting. Possibly
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 10 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-iring guns, not counting ma
chine guns and heavy siege pieces.
The infantry. which is splendid fight
ing material, carries the MannIicher
five-shot rife and knife bayonet. and
is largely oficered by men who have
been under fire in the Macedonian
revolt. 1t was fayorite trick, while
the revolution lasted, for officers TO

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 aud equip
ment are at maximum of efficiency.
This is based on statements by ofi-
GERS of her general staff.
Provisions Of the Treaty.
The principality OF Bulgaria was
created by the treaty OF berlin.
signed July 1S, 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 Christian govern
ment and a national militia. The
prince OF Bulgaria should be freely
elected by the population and con-
firmed by the sublime porte. with the
consent of the powers, but no member
Of any reigning house Of the great
European powers should be elected.
