AMBITION OF FERDINAND
D|SQU|ET|NC TO RUSSIA
BuIgaria's Ruler Suspected of

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

ST. PETERSBURG, March %. 1911.
Bulgarian affairs are arousing dis
qu!etude in political circles here King
Ferdinand's resolve to link his forward
policy with that of Austria Hungary lies
at the root of the present Bulgarian fer
ment and of the Russian uneasiness.
That policy is grounded on the assump-
ton that the disruption Of the Turkish
empire is inevitable. and King Ferdinand,
whose proximate aim is the annexation
OF large part of Macedonia endeavored,
when he was last in ST Petersburg. to
induce Russia to precipitate a crisis while
Bulgaria was still good match for Tur-
key. The cars government. however.

water upon King Ferdinand's newborn
Slav enthusiasm. but admonished him
sharply to resign himself to a continu-

Looking to Austria-Hungary.
Rebuffed by this stiff negative. King
Ferdinand changed his attack. and re-
solved to wait for the natural disruption
Of the Ottoman empire, and throw in his
lot with Austria-Hungary. Presumably
with that aim in view, he has requested
VIC great SoOTdnJe, Wnlcn VIII soon meet
for the purpose of readjusting the terms
of the written constitution to the CO.
temporary situation. to authorize him to
conclude treaties with foreign powers
without the assent or knowledge of par
lament. but the great sObranje can modify
the clauses of the constitution only when
three-fourths of the members are agreed

bill 1t is thrown out.
BULGARIAN Cabinet Crisis
The democratic cabinet, under the pre-
mier, NJ. Malnoff, having proposed this
bill for increasing the monarch's powers
to the ordinary sobranje, lost the sup
port Of its party and was compelled to
resign If King Ferdinand now creates a
business cabinet. the elections for the
great sobranje may go against him, and
more than a quarter Of opposition men,
bers be returned. Therefore, he may ask
NJ. Gueshoff TO form an administration
and supervise the elections. The strength
of King Ferd;nands sway lies in his
system of keeping all the thirteen DO

darkness, whence he raises them to life
and light when he requires their services
But no politician and no political party

Ferdinand's star to shine. But If that
system constitutes the strength Of the
newly made car, 1t also lies at the root
Of his weakness. Private dispatches aliude

Civic ment Society.

The annual meeting of the Civic
Improvement society was held Tues
day evening, Feb. 7, at the Goodrich
library assembly room. The meeting
was a very harmonious one, the Off
GERS for the past year all receiving a
reelection. The financial affairs of
the society are prosperous. there being
no debt and nearly $3.50 in the treas
ury. In view of the good work done
last season toward keeping the viii
lage clean and in an attractive condi-
ton, on a very small working capital,
this would seem to place the society
in shape, not only to continue work
now begun but to branch out along
other lines. There was some discus
sion relative to the proposed exter-
mination of the pestiferous mosquito
with which this community is aff1ict =
ed and it does seem that energetic
efforts in this direction are commend
able. Certainly if Improvement in
this respect is effected it will be
through concerted action by some in
stitution and the Civic Improvement
society could not be better employed.
While the mosquito plague in tn S vi
cinity has, like the premature report
of the death of MARK TWAIN" been
greatly exaggerated, there is a great
chance for improvement and here's
hoping that the Improvement may be
effected in the near future.

Petty Thieving Punished.

Luman Rice was sentenced in NUM-
cipal court by Judge Thompson Mon
day to serve a sentence of three
months in the house of correction at
Rutland for the larceny of furnish
ings from he summer cottage of Geo.
Reed on the Lake shore near the Lead
Mine Light. The articles in question
we're found in the possession of Rice,
who claimed to have obtained them
by purchase from parties whom he
did not know personally. Notwith-
standing this assertion Rice was found
guilty of petit larceny. He was con-
fined in the county Jail pending action
by the governor looking to his COM
mitment to Rutland. Much trouble
has been experienced by c%ottagers
along the lake in the past and this
action of the authorities may put a
stop, for a time at least to similar
depredations.

Y. NJ. |. Club.

Principal M. G. Benedict of St.
club Of that institution were the at
ment club last Friday evening, being
the fourth entertainment in the clubs
winter course. DR.. Benedict, proved
himself something of a prevaricator
in that he assured his audience at the
start that he was no public speaker
and then held them spellbound for an
hour by his oratory. His address on
''Some of the Phases of Education in
Vermont" was exceedingly entertain
ing to all, and very instructive to
many of lis hearers. He commended
the public schools of the state and
suggested methods of improvement,
among them being the establishment
of the central school and better facili-
ties for educational equipment of and
higher salaries for the teachers in
our secondary schools. DR.. B~enedict's
eulogy of ThaddeUs Stevens and JUS
tin S. Morrill,, the two great men of
Vermont, was beautiful. These
men and their achievements, were cit
ed as illustrating the truth, in regard
to the Vermont public school of the
scriptural adage "By their fruits We
shall know them. The Glee club num-
bering seventeen young men and their
manager, Prof. Wood, certainly made
good. "Hail! st. j. A" and the
"Grandfather's Farm" song were
rather the best productions and it
would require a better musical critic
than the writer to find fault with the
entire program. We should like tt
hear them all again together with
their principal. On Friday evening,
Feb. "a, Postmaster A. F. Stone OF
ST. Johnsbury will address the club.
Mr.. Stone has been before the club OF
other occasions and has always proved
an interesting speaker.

The development Of the beautiful is

Ing from gardening in its common
sense. I'm embracing the whole scene
about { hehouse, which It softens and
refines. In II we seek TO embody our
Ideal Of a home by collecting and com.
bining beautiful forms in vegetation,
surfaces of ground, buildings and
walks in the landscape surrounding
us.
Every place should be n picture by
Itself, having an individuality all its
own, completely harmonizing with the
home which 1t surrounds, attractive to
the general public and enjoyable to
the owner. We should as far as pos.
sible conform in a general way to the
prevailing custom on the street as re.
CARDS the use of fences between the
buildings and the street lines.
The working part Of the grounds,
such as the kitchen garden. clothes
yard, etc. should be brought together
directly connecting with the kitchen
end cellar. They can thus be admir-.
ably separated from the ornamental
part Of the grounds by lines Of shrubs

they are actually required.
We should keep the centers of the
lawn spaces open, making the planta-
lions on the edges and not dot them
nursery fashion ali over the entire
lawn. We thus secure the full value
Of the lawn area and make mainte.
nance easier. We a then provide
spaces for flowers, preferably Of a
perennial nature in the foreground of
our shrub masses and not in separate
Or scattered beds.
AS a general thing the naturalistic
gardening should be adopted on the
small place in preference to the for
NAL. We are thus able to avoid
straight lines, creating a picture using
The green grass as our canvas, framing
the whole in with a well selected col
lection Of trees and shrubs; confining
The tender and annual plants to the
dover garden, as they are costly, TEN
porary and often in bad taste when
scattered p~romiscuously over the en-
lire place. The house is the main fea'
lure, and all paintings must be done
1nder the influence of its character
and situation, the views from the win
flows suggesting the arrangement and
where the paintings should have their
origin. In the very nature of things
90 two gardens can be just alike; q
charming feature in one garden may
not be allowable in another, either
through lack Of space, difference in ex
posure or natural incongruity.
