Daneff's Stand.


The yielding Of Turkey on the aucs-
tion of Adrianoplc undoubtedly would
pave tho way for a general settlement.
DRY Daneff head of the Bulgarian
delegation, announced that unless tho
sultan's cnvoys accept Fridays ultl-
matum he and his colleagues will
leave london on Tuesday and their
armies viii give hattie the moment the
armistide expires. This constitutes
one Of The most dramatic conflicts in
the history of diplomacy; yet this sit
uation has been foreseen and expected
from the first. Only those in the In
ncrmost councils know whether the
negotiations will be finished on Mon
day or whether they just will begin
then.
Events have moved swiftly in the
last feW days. When tho allies de-
ivcred their ultimatum yesterday, an
answer to which Yves dcmnnded by
Monday afternoon. Rechad pasha re-
piled promptly and thcatrically that 1t
was not necessary to wait untIl Mon
day; that he would reply on Saturday
just as well Today Rechad Pasha
requested a postponcment until Mon
day.
Tor This action he made two ex-
planatldna, One was that the Turks
desired to give the allies time to CON
slider their position; the other was
that the porte had ordered him to
await fresh instructions. The allies
were inspired to satisfaction by tho
latter statement, thinking that tho
porte was wavcring on the question Of
Adrianoplc.
Rechad Pasha affirmed otherwise,

"Aftet having ccdcd more territory

states had before the war. Turkey

HOW sCHUMANN WROTE mo- CLARA wIECK

One of the prettiest romances
among musicians was the devotion ex-
hibited by Roberts Schumann for Clara
Josephine Week. who afterwards be-
came his wife, and, remained a devoted
companion until his death and assisted
materially in making his compositions
popular, for she was one of the most
accomplished pianists of her age.
Schumann met Clara Wieek when he
was mere youth and she was only 1a
years of age. He made his home with
the family and studied music with
Clara's father. The deep attachment
when he proposed marriage to Clara
and was accepted. The father bitterly
opposed the marriage for he had higher
plans for his daughter than marriage
with a poor music pupil.
After being refused again and again
by Week, the young couple finally
gained access to the royal court of ap-
peals and presented their case 1t
dragged along for year. and finally
the court decided there was no valid
reasons why they should not marry, and
so the ceremony took place when Clara
was 81 and Schumann 80.
When a consent was not Forthcoming
Schumann wrote to Clara as follows:
Il am quite clear about my heart. Per-
haps your father will not refuse If l ask
him for his blessing OF course there

ment with the firm The agreement was
that at 4:30 upon a certain day he
would call to take his betrothed for a
walk. Between that 4 and 6 he re-
quested that the instrument should be
delivered at Clara's residence. The
delight of the girl may be imagined
when she returned with her lover to
find such a suitable present awaiting
her acceptance. 1t can easily be con-
jectured that some delightful music fol-
lowed, and that the appropriate gift, as
well as the graceful way in which it
given, was highly appreciated.
Schumann was great and gifted
letter writer. In his epistles, rather than
in speech, he poured forth hs heart He
concluded several OF his letters with
"Addio, carissima Clara, cara Claris-
sima.' He told her in one of these: I'VE

blossom, and we viii play and compose
together like angels. and bring gladness

1t is pity that the night of this hap
piness was to come so soon. Their ideal
ly happy life together lasted for only a
few years, for Schumann was attacked
with brain malady which is supposed
to have been hereditary. For years he
lived in a state of continual gloom and
oppression, which brought on illusions

him what is known as Schumann's last
