Sofia. August 23.-There Is an ex-
preston of widespread regret here
that difference should have arisen be-
tween General Savoff, head of the Bull
garian army, and Car Ferdinand. This
great soldier, who is about to be
stripped of his command, will undoubt-
eddy go down in history as the fore
most military genius of the Balkans.
II was he who led King Ferdinands
army to series OF victories un-
parallcled in the history of the Balkan
states He all but succeeded in driv-
ing the Turk from his last lair in Eu-
rope, and there are many who think
he would have accomplished this If he
had not been lnterfcred with
General Savoff is now blamed for the
sweeping defeat OF the BulGars at
kotchana. where Ferdinand lost more
men in few days than in the entire
campaign against the Turks Savoff is
held responsible for the defeat by or
dcring his troops to attack the Scrvians
and the Greeks. and it is not improb-
able that he will be compelled to face
a court-martial.

Atlanta English Lutheran Church
Tries Up-to-Date Methods
With Great Success.

A Sunday School nursery for small
children whose parents wish to at
tend church service has been estab-
Hshed at the English Lutheran
Church, corner of Trinity avenue and
Capitol place, and the Rev. w. c.
Schaeffer saiu tuesday he was sure
Of its success. The Inauguration of
the new system is in line with a pol
icy adopted by several of the pro-
gressive churches Of Atlanta.
The English Lutheran nursery was
started off with a rush Sunday when
more than 80 of the little folk were
turned over to the care of Mrs. A. II.
BaSkin, wife Of DIR. Baskin, the Coun-
Gilman, and Mrs, Harold 3. Cum
mings, daughter of the Fire
Chief Cummings.
Although there were few cries and
whimpcrs when the little ones We're
separated from their parents at the
beginning of the morning service
things soon became quiet and orderly
under the able management Of the
two volunteer nurses. In fact, some
of the little tots became 50 well
pleased with their surroundings that
they were lOath to leave when their
parents called for them after the
service.
Perhaps the happiest person Of all
however, not excepting the parents
was the Rev Mr.. SChaeffer, pastor Of
the church, who for the first time in
months was not disturbed while de
livering his sermon by the cries Of
some younSster who could not be left
alone at home.
The English Lutheran nursery has
every facility for the care Of the little
folk, as well as the older boys Of the
Sunday School following the compile
ton Of the new classroom adjoining
the main auditorium. a part of the
new building is used for the nursery
while the other section is devoted TO

Free Sugar, but Same
Price for Consumers

WASHINGTON, Sept 23.-Free
raw sugar, proposed in the new tariff
bin, will mean no reduction IN the
cost Of the finished product to the
consumer.
This is the inference drawn from &
bulletin recounting the fluctuations
OF can sugar issued by the Bureau of
Labor statistics.
The Bureau states that for three
years the cost OF enough raw sugar
to produce one pound Of refined sugar
has huctuated greatly, while the
price of refined sugar has remained
almost stationary. the profits appar-
emily being absorbed by refiners and
mtddlemen. All cane sugar IS re-
fined in America.

JEROME SCORES
IN FINAL FIGHT
To GET THAW

CONCORD, N. H., Sept. 3D.
After William T. Jerome, in his
argument in the extradition pro-
ceedings o. larry K. Thaw. in the .
Senate Cham = of the State
House to-day 1ad declared that
Thaw had been md cted for con-
spiracy by the Grand Jury at
Poughkeepsie, but that the news
OF the indictment had been with
held, Governor Felker at o'clock
declared that he would make
known his decision Monday.

liam r. Jerome scored first blood 1T
the opening session Of the extra
dition hearing on Harry K. Thaw be
fore Governor Felker in the STATE
Senate chamber to-day.
Although Governor Felker was dis
posed to have New York state open
the argument, Jerome succeeded In
throwing the burden of proof on the
defense in getting a ruling from The
Governor that Thaw's lawyers should
begin first.
William NJ. Chase, former justice 4
the New Hampshire Supreme Court,
opened the argument for Thaw Judge
Chase and former Governor William
A Stotne, of Pennsylvania. who fol-
lowed argued that Thaw is insane
that an insane man can not be pun
ished for escapig from an asylum;
that when he does escape he does no
criminal wrong, and that It is up 10
Jerome to prove and the Governor to
decide whether Thaw Is sane or not.
Judge Chase, in a faint voice,
opened the discussion. 1t was one Of
the rare occasions on which the for
mer New Hampshire supreme Court
Judge has appeared as counsel In 2
court and especially in a criminal
matter His prime contention was
that II the requisition was for an III
terror purpose it should not be grant
ed
You have no authority to act IN
this matter" he said, and deliver
Thaw up to New York state IL he is
insane, you have no authority to act
upon grounds Of public policy or com
ity. The process Of eXtradition must
be according to precise statutes.
