T,ondon. Jan. 3o-The curtain may rise on the second act of the Balkan war next Monday. The allies renounc- ed the armistice at o'clock ana IT bombardment of Adrianople will foi- low after an interval of four days. In deed the bombardment has been scheduled for o'clock Monday even ing.
 is in no wise assured. Only reW hours before the allies proclaimed their 1nomentous decision the Ottoman gov ernment presented its reply to the joint note of the powers on Jan. IT.
 Young Turks Change Front.
 Never has diplomatic problem talk en such swift and surprising changes BIS these negotiations for peace. The Young Turks who seized the govern nlent with shouts of defiance have un- dergone a marvellous transformation. Instead of drawing the battle line at the quesion Of surrendering Adrian opIe they offer a compromise winch comes SC near meeting the Bulgarian demands that a settlement should not be impossible. and they leave the Aegean Islands to the disposition of the powers.
 Compromise Seems Possible.
 The difference between what Con Ftantinople is ready to give and what Bulgaria is ready to accept has been ~educed to such small proportions that even some of the Balkan delegates be- tieve compromise may yet be found Constantinopls now asks simply the retention of that section of Adrianople where the holy shrines are situated Bulgaria always meant to leave the mosques and shrines to Turkey. and even to confer the right of extra terri toriality, thus giving them something of the status of the vatican in Rome The vital differences between the two nations amount merely to Turkeys de- manding the sf1rines and the sections surrounding them
 Aegean islands Problem Solved.
 The Thracep frontier line therefore, with the exception of the town of Adr1-a anopIe has been practically agreed to, as Turkey is ready to leave to the powers the disposition of the land on Tfe right bank of the Marftza river, which conditions, as is known, the all lies are satisfied to accept The ques- fion of the Aegean Islands also has pactfcally been solved. as the porte is eifsposed to leave their settlement to Ehe powers.
 All hte powers have urged the allies 10 do their utmost to prevent the re- sumption of hostfIities because of the grave complications that might other wise arise.

LOVELY GIRL COMPAN|ONABIE
Cambridge Girl With Angelic Dis
position inquiries About Man.

A modest Cacbridge girl, whom
the BALTIC. American reports to be a
good penman, has written to that
paper for further particulars con-
corning a young man who states
that he is looking for companion.
She wants to know if he is good
looking, sweet-tempered,has a sunny
disposition and possesses all the
other attributes that go to make
up an ideal man. While stating
that she supposes it to be of no use
for her to inquire into his many
manly characteristics, as he desires
a girl of Is, and she is compelled
to confess to fewer summers than
this number, yet she thinks that
possibly her good qualities, her
charming locks, bewitching eyes,
sweet disposition and lack of tenn
per may find favor in his noble
eyes.
Postmaster Medford informs us
that he has received a reply to the
letter of the young lady, and W
give her the gentleman's name and
address if she will call for it.
Her letter was as follows:
81 noticed in The Americanstha
a young man wanted companion.
His letter reads like he was good
looking. Will you kindly inform
about me? I don't guess that 1t will
be Of much use, as he wants a girl
of Is years. l am a little ,ungeT.
