= London, Oct. 21.-No really serious
fighting has yet been reported from the
seat of the Balkan war The Montene-
grins have captured PLAYA and Gusia-
je, and the Greeks have occupied Elias
soma: but these are regarded as minor
affairs in which no real resistance was
offered. on the Servian and Bulgarian
frontiers. the situation is little
changed. An uDconfirmed report saws
the Bulgarians have captured Kirk
Ililisseh. but. like many similar re-
ports, this probably is untrue.
From both Constantinople and Sofia
are issued constant denials of sue
cesses claimed BY the respective oppo-
nents. For instance, an official state
ment comes last night from Sofa, de-
claring that all the reported Turkish
invasions of Bulgarian territory are
pure inventions. while on the previous
day the Turkish government denied

awoke frequently and seemed nervous.

his coming departure and not to, any
untoward symptoms that had devel-
oped. The Colonel was cheerful. anil
expressed pleasure that he was soon
TO be on the way TO his home at Oys-
ter Bay.
Long before the time he was to
leave, Roosevelt was ready. He was
fully dressed. over his street clothes
he wore the heavy army overcoat ne

by the bullet ON his way through

crowd gathered, who also shouted
greetings as the Colonel appeared in A

cot on which the Colonel at once re-
clined Preceding the ambulance
was q detail of motorcycle police, a
squad of whom also followed the am

road yards a half mile away. The de-
parture Of the train. which was sched-
uled for S:1J. was delayed until 80,
by collision of two engines or the

A CoNscIENcELEss scoUNDREL

The fiend who set fire to the Burn
ham school house and as a result OF
this incendiary act destroyed the
homes of ten families is now probab-
ly quaking with the fear that he will
have to pay the penalty for his crime
or if he be a normal man he must lie
tortured by his conscience.
He is probably minimizing the
horror of his act by the thought that
he only intended to burn down the
school house but man is responsible
for the inevitable consequences of his
own acts"
If this fire has resulted in the
death of one of the occupants of the
building then the incendiary is also
a murderer. No matter If his in
Itentions were only to destroy the
vacant school house the law will
hold him responsible for the crime oil
manslaughter If it develops that .
death did result from the fire for a
normal man would have appreciated
the danger of an extensive con1agra
ton
And then man who could h.
brought to the point of doing such
an act is vicious and vindictive by
nature and should be imprisoned as
safeguard to society. The Burnhair
fire should be carefully investigated
by the state of Illinois so as te
leliminate any possibility of loca
laxity in the matter
An example should be made of q
man who would deliberately destroy
a building by fire, no matter how
worthless it may be. Such example.
are needed to restrain others of de
PRAYED natures from such acts.

PROCESS OF EVOLUTION.

Great thoughts and noteworthy
deeds are gradual developments, not
sudden miracles.
New wonders are produced by bor-
rowing from the. past and building
upon what has already been accom-
plished. The footpath begets the
road, the road fathers the horse car.
the horse car evolves into the rail-
road, the railroad engine suggests
the automobile and the chug-buggy
starts Curtiss and Wright to dream
ing about the aeroplane
The alchemy of the inventor is not
to suddenly produce the unknowable
but to take a machine that alreay
exists, add few cogs here, simplify
there, and get royalties on the result
If he can. So in education. agri-
culture and morals, one thing leads
on to another. and nothing comes
suddenly but cyclones, volcano erup-
tions, holocausts and the boll-weevil
Nature produces new things when
we are ready for them. and the in
spiration to invent, discover and
solve is necessity.
That is the reason why Columbus
Magellan and Frobisher were work.

MORE ABOUT BRYAN.

We cannot but be modest abou
our Bryan prediction made las
January and further elucidated ter
days ago, but it is interesting to sa,
the least to find in so cautious ans
calm a newspaper as the Chicagt
Record-Herald today, the followin,
editorial:
las Champ Clark has no real
strength in the country, whom
will the radicals favor? We note,
without INDUCING in any prophe-
cy, that more and more Bryan
talk is finding its way into the
political columns of wide-awake
newspapers. Mr.. Bryan is not
candidate for anything, he keeps
on saying. He is undoubtedly sim
cere, but If the Baltimore conven-
ton should turn to him, or be
stampeded in his behalf. what
would he do? Decline the NOM
intion regardless of anything? He
is not pledged to such a course.
and many believe that he will not
take it. Why. they ask, should
he?"

WHAT HENRI THINKS.

Col. Heny Watterson of the Louis
vile Courier-Journal sees dire things
once more. He believes that If q
certain man becomes president agaiu
anything is likely to happen-civil
wars, strife and life dictatorship
OF the latter he writes:
There can be in his name and
person but one issue-life tenure
in the executive office and a civil
fabric imperial in everything ex-
cept its nomenclature"
True or not true If there is any
man in America who it fitted BIZ
ability, ambition and the opportuni
ty to seize the reins he is the mar
who would be president again.
