era, the mail advices maintained,
there need have been no dangerl if
the simplest sanitary precautions had
been taken.
Yet, when offers of assistance
were received from England and
America during the early days of the
struggle, it was charged that the
Turkish authorities repulsed them
scornfully. Subsequently some of
them were reluctantly accepted, but
too late to be Of much avail.
One case was quoted, that Of DR..
Ford, an American said to be an army
surgeon, who hurried from Paris to
tender his services He and fellow
countryman proposed to take over an
entire military hospital and handle it
at their own expense. His suggestion
was accepted but when he appeared
at the hospital the next morning he
was refused admission whereupon he
fitted up make-shift hospital Of his
own in an abandoned shack where at
latest accounts he was treating 200
patients.

that they discussed peace, Bulgaria,
Servia, Montenegro and Greece were
still fighting furiously with the Turks
tonight, according to dispatches from
various points In the Balkans.
The thunder OF the Bulgarian artiil-
cry could be heard In the suburbs Of
Constantinople, it was said. The
Servians were reported hammering at
hhe gates Of Monastir with one force
OF Greeks hurrying to help them and
another marching on Janina. The
Montenegrins continued their bonn
bardment of Scutari and were do
ling the utmost to take the Adriatfc
port of San Giovanni di Medua, from
the heights which surround it. Adrian
ople was understood to be still hold

The allies, messages from Soft aand
Belgrade stated, were agreed on the
only terms they will accept from Tur-

mand for the snltan's complete sur

sions- and expected within twenty
] four hours of presentation, the cam
paign will be pushed more vigorously
! than ever, in as much as the alliance
does not intend to let the Ottoman
4 government gain valuable time by
useless wrangling.
The international situation grew
strained again during the day. Aus

father is a barber, was missed from
his home at o'clock in the evening.
Early the next morning Sergeant
Reynolds of the Gates avenue station
was passing the lawn of a house in
Stuyvesant avenue, near Kosciusko
street, about a block from the Tro-
doro home, when he saw a child's foot
between the pickets of the iron fance.
He looked in and saw a small boy fast
asleep on the grass. 1t was Americas.
The sergeant found that the boys foot
was tightly wedged in between the
pickets and that the lad was a pris-

Americas said that he was search
ing for his pet cat and had gone into
the yard to look around. While climb
ing the fence to get out he caught
his foot between the pickets and
could not release himself. No one
passed and his cries were unheard.
Finally, tired out, he went to sleep

He painted landscapes, and my aunt,

hire him TO decorate our walls with
rural scenes, highly colored in glazing
tints, as II nature had turned color
