all time when the war that now Is

Her name is Sophia Yovanovitsch.

to tell the story of the struggle OF
the little kingdom against the Turk
the name Of Sophia will become a
household word in the Balkans.
When the war cloud that has how.
cred for twenty years over the Pal
kans broke and little Servia sprang
to arms. Sophia was one OF the most
ardent patriots. There we're three
young men avowedly suitors for her

the same order-not to ask her 10

country is fat, 1t has many trees. 1t is

there is woman "in a shapeless mass
of orange cotton" tiny child, with
embroidered coat and absurd little
bun trousers ending in red Shoes"
and an old man who crowns a gray
frock coat with a crimson turban, and
wraps his legs In "a careless swathe
of white muslin" Mr. Spender's train
was delayed for ten minutes because a

WILSON'S SIMPLICITY.

Thomas Jefferson is being hard pushed h Wo drow Wilson as an exemplar of simplicity. For cen tury the former has been held up and no President has wrested first honors from him. but just now he has d rival in the person Of our Chief Executive. says the Boston Globe. Mir Wilson. to be sure, rides n an bile instead of on horse back but he goes about his business in such a quiet, matter-of-fact way that Washington passes from one surprise 10 another. The latest incl dent to illustrate his simplicity hap pened in a restaurant. The place was crowded. the waiter was busy, and, as the identity of the party was not disclosed scant attention was paid to an inquiry for seats. The Presidential party wasted no time but promptly went to a hotel where accommodations were certain. Most people would have gone away i2 9 huff. The Wilson's very qu etly re tired to better quarters without con- ment. Unobtrusiveness is the Will son rule Neither the President nor any of his family have put on any frills since they occupied the White House. They are setting the nation a good example by doing their daily work without ostentat.on, and in their dealings with other people act quite the same as would the ordin- ary individual. Jefferson couldn't improve on the Wilson plan unless it be urged that the sage of Mon tieello, if now living, would insist on running his own car. while Mir.

So if he can do it to one he can do it to others and then in time other people will be able to do it, too.

The insane prisoner who gave Pat rolman Blaylock such tussle a couple of weeks ago while he was being taken to jail upon complaint of the proprietress of the Golden North ho,4l, wlo:n he had threat ened with death. made an unsuc- cessful attempt U commit suicide during last week by cutting his throat
 The instrument used for the pur. pose of self destruction was a piece of sheet iron torn from the wall of h:s cell above the padding. he being confined in the padded cell provided for the violently insane in the feder- al jail.
 Shortly after he had eaten his evening meal one of the guards had occasion to go into the insane mans cell and found him with his throat cut and bleeding profusely Dr. Sutherland was summoned and after working over him for some time, succeeded in saving his life. The wound was about five inches long and extended across the throat.
 It has been reported from the jail that after the attempted suicide the man regained his faculties to considerable extent and showed signs of mental improvement, but after couple days began having the same delusions as before the attempt upon his life.
 The name of the unfortunate man is Frank Jylhamaa and at his hear ing upon the charge of insanity held before Commissioner Dillon Saturday afternoon he was adjudged insane and ordered transported to the Morningside sanitarium in Oregon.
