STATE ExTRAvAeANcE.

The Republicans having been in control of all
branches of the state government from 1897 to 1870
1t might prove interesting to compare the amounts
paid out OF the General State Fund in 1885, the last
year the Democrats had control with the year 1910,
more especially as the relates to the salaries
OF officers, clerks, and other kindred purposes

UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRE,l

London, Nov. 12.-That the Bulga-

they expected in breaking through the
Turkish defenses is the belief Of Mill
tary experts here today. The fighting

little advance has been made by the

An anti Christian feeling is growing
rapidly in Constantinople and it is
feared that the Moslem soldiers may
start a religious massacre at any mo-

1t is charged by the Turks that
the Bulgarians mistreated Turkish

CHAPTER XII.

The American dearly loves a SEN
sation, and the bigger and more blood
curdling IL is the better. Nothing is
more gratifying on arising in the
morning and sitting down to partake
of a daintily served breakfast than to
glance hurriedly over the front page
of ones favorite newspaper and see it
covered with startling headlines. It
matters little what has happened dur
ing the night to shock the community,
so long as IL satisfies ones appetite
for sensational news. 1t can be a
fatal confiagration, a fearful railroad
wreck, a gigantic bank robbery, a hor-
rible murder, or even a scandalous
divorce case. All one asks is that it
be something big, with column after
column of narrowing details. The
newspapers are fully alive TO what is
expected of them, but it is not always
easy to supply the demand. There
are times when the metropolis Ian
cuisines for news of any description.
There are no disastrous fires, trains
run without mishap, burglars go on a
vacation, society leaders act with de.
corum-in a word the city is deadly
dull. Further consideration of the
tariff remains the most thrilling topic
the newspapers can find to write
about
