CALCUTTA, Sept. S-(special to The
Bee )-Remarkably interesting documents
from central Asia have been acquired by
the Asiatic Sociey of Bengal from Mon
tengrin gentleman. They consist OF five
leaves OF brownish-yellow paper, measuring
Sx5% inches.
The true significance OF these five leaves,
the genuineness OF which cannot be doubted,
is that scholars are here confronted with a
number of consecutive passages in a Ian
guage TO which no clue has yet been found,
and OF which hitherto only fragments have
been rescued from the sands OF central
Asia. II is quite possible that. by means
of these five leaves, an important literary
language, of whose existence the world has
had no suspicion, may be rescued from OBJ
livion.
The paging of reserve Of each leaf shows
that they once formed part OF an extensive
work.

BELGRADE. Sept. S-(speclal to The
Bee.)-Promoted by recent events In Mace
donia, the officers at the headquarters of
the Third army corps at Salonika have
drawn up a new plan Of campaign, enabling
the Turkish army to make simultaneous
attack on the Greek and Bulgarian from
tiers The plan was sent to the minister OF
war at Constantinople who approved II
with a few slight alterations.
According TO the Vetchernyo Poscten, the
Bulgarian cabinet. has requested the Vienna
cabinet to give It's friendly assistance at
Constantlnople in connection with the ques-
ton of the Bulgarian emigrants into Mace
donis, and the Austrian ambassador at Con-
stantinope has been instructed to support
the Bulgarian demands. The newspapers
regard this communication as a confirma-
ton OF earlier rumors concerning the ex-
istence OF a secret convention betW cen Aus
tria-Hungary and Bulgaria.

radical government; but Indignation at the
privileges enjoyed by the religious COM
munities is an even greater influence in
its favor. These pay no territorial con-
tribution The magnificent properties of
the monks pay no taxes whatever. and in
consequence of this the Spanish citizen
living in their neighborhood has to pay
an exorbltant rent.
Pay No Taxes.
Neither do these religious communities
pay the Industrial tax or the personal tax.
At the same time their inmates are exempt
from military service, and from the redemp-
ton fee of $500 in lieu of military service
which is exacted from other Spanish
citizens. The result Is that in GER
tain towns of special industries. the
workers, especially the women, cannot
live. The elaborate working in linen, which
wives and daughters Of the wage earners.
has passed entirely into the hands of the
converts.
The workwomen of Saragossa were dying
of hunger last year. while In the converts
an elaborate trcsseau, valued at many thou
sands of dollars, was being worked. Such
facts as these explain the peculiar vindfc-
tiveness seen In Its full extent during the
tragic week OF Barcelona last year.
How workers suffer.
The male worker suffers also by the COM
peting industries of the monks. This is es-
pecially true in the matter of teaching,
Whilst a religious college pays no tax. a
secular school is compelled to pay its tax
six months in advance. A private teacher
can scarcely find occupation.
The Vatican scarcely realizes the strength
which a state of things gives to its enemies.
If Rome resists. q rupture, followed by a
series Of measures applied by the Spanish
government to remedy these evils, would
meet with a hearty approval in the large
towns. not only among the nationalist ele-
ment, but also among the working classes.

From 1888 to 1908 the number of divorces
in the French working population has more
than doubled, the marriages dissolved in
the case of petitioners suing in forma
pauperis having risen from 1000 to 4,20A
and having still further Increased Ia st year.
The Temps has asked various experts how
they remark for this remarkable social
fact. The secretary of the league for indi-
vidual liberty believes that the increase of
divorce comes partly from growing selfish
ness on the part of husbands. On the other
hand. women divorce either for immoral
reasons or on the best moral grounds, in
the latter case often because they can
support themselves and their children with
out an idle husband to keep. Thus they
prefer divorce to separation the latter be-
ing farther on the decrease. At the same
time. one cause Of the incDease OF the di-
voroe is merely the increase of marriages.
In the French working population couples
living together without being married are
rarer than formerly. A lawyer especially
interested in suits in forma pauperis
says that'i is a distressing fact that the
great number of the petitioners of divorce
nowadays are young married people, some
times three or four months bride ana
grooms. At the first difficulties of welded
life the husbands selfishness comes out,
and he signs for the freedom of his bache-
lor days. The gtrl-wife retorts that she
also is slave now compared with what
she was in her days of sngle-blessedness,
and one more marriage goes to pieces.

LONDON. Sept 3.-(Speciai to The Bee)
Whether IL is due to the Lloyd-George
budget or to a real growth Of temperance
feeling, the fact remains that Great Britain
and Ireland are growing sober.
Some time ago l called attention to the
great falling off in the sales OF spirits and
beer and Low additional evidence that Eng
lishmen are becoming a more sober race is
afforded by the bluebook of the licensing
laws just Issued.
The feature OF the report is found in the
statistics as to the convictions for drunken
ness and offences combined with drunken
ness. The decrease in the convictions is
most remarkable. In 1909 there were 16s .b1s
such convictions. against 1s7.so3 in 190s-a
reduction OF 1885. or nearly 10 per cent
Total proceedings, too. for these offences
fell from 2Oe6s1 TO 190,495 The bluebook
states that 1T is impossible not to as
sociate the decrease with the increased
duty on spirits which took effect from
April 30. 1909" The number of convic-
tlons OF women for drunkenness bore a
lower proportion to the total in 1909 than
in the previous year.
Matter of Licenses.

and 6,721 in 1866. Last year. too, saw a

FARMERS CAN'T PLANT CORN
Wet and Cold Weather Has Seriously
Hurt Corn and Wheat.

Because of the continued rains and
cold weather in April and May. farm
ers in Missouri have not been able
to get their crops planted. In some
instances the farmers have replanted
their corn three times and are still
unable to get a stand.
The cool wet weather caused the
corn to rot in the ground and what
did grow was cut Off by the worms.
The ground that has been plowed is
being taken by the weeds, as it is too
wet to cultivate.
The wheat crop will be only about
one-half yield. There is a good stand
of oats, but they have not made much
growth within the last month. Farm
ers all over the state are said to be
