No Evidence Of Atrocities.

Mr.. Woodruff declares further that his
work In the city kept him from seeing
much of the second Balkan war; but on
his trip through the country on his way
home he did not find any creditable evil
dence connecting the Bulgarian regulars
with any atrocities.
The missionary is full OF praise for Miss
Clara Haskell. an American missionary
teacher. who was acting as a nurse in
Bulgarian hospital when the Turks re-
entered Adrianople. All the able-bodied
Bulgarians. including the doctors, fed,
leaving the invalids to their fate. Miss
Haskell, besought to fee by the Bull
garian doctors, declined to do so. declar-
ing that she preferred to remain with
her charges at the risk Of her life II
necessary. She was not moleSted by the
invaders, and her patients were not dis
turbed.
Calls King a Liar.
1.-THE king OF all liars" is the title be-
slowed on the King of Greece by Pastor
d. n. Furnajieff, a Bulgarian. who is In
London as a member Of the delegation
which presented the foreign office with
a statement regarding the proportions
of Bulgarians in the region of the Enos-
Media line. Pastor Furnajieff. who Is a
Princeton graduate, declares the Greciall
monarch has earned the title by his sign
ed statement to the press that 10000
Moslems had been masSacred- at Dorian
by the Bulgarians. The pastor is a ma
tive of the district near Dorian, and he
declares that the town, which is almost
purely Bulgarian. has only 1000 people,
and that in the whole district there are
not more than LEGO Moslems.
The Bulgarian clergyman states that
the Greek king has been equally far from
the truth in his other charges against the
bulgarian armies. He declares that on
inquiry at the British foreign office he
learned that not a single English consul
in the Balkans had reported the Bull
garians as the perpetrators OF atrocities.
No More Licenses to Gunwomen.
Recruiting for the CORPS Of gunwomen
of the Womens Social and Political
Union has come to n standstill for the
reason that the authorities, alarmed at
the growing number Of women asking
permission to bear arms, have declined
to issue any more licenses to women
Nevertheless. no less than 800 licenses
to carry arms had been issued to men,

Statement Summarized.

a summary OF his statement to Sir Ed
ward Grey follows: when I entered the
city the streets of Adrianople were free
from any excitement or disturbance with
the exception of a few scattering Shots
which I learned afterward had been fired
at some Turkish officers who sought to
escape from a house where they had been
hiding. There was an air Of relief and
happiness on the faces Of the people, for
even to the stubborn defenders the Bull
garian occupation was a relief from i'm
pending starvation.
L was surprised at how little damage
had been done to the city by the bonn
bardment, only twelve civilians having
been killed. / saw no .fezzes being knock
ed from the heads of Turks. and 1 know
that when some one complained to Gen.
Vazoff that his soldiers were snatching
the fezzes from the heads of citizens he
issued an order that any soldier found
guilty of such an action be promptly shot.
THE European Turkish soldiers were
released as soon as the lists of their
names were submitted. The others were
started as soon as possible on the road
to Bulgaria, and after the column had
were prisoners who had been shot as
grim necessity of war because they either
would not or could not keep up.
Suffering Due to Neglect.
THE Turkish officers were sent to the
best hotels In Philippopolis and Sofia.
The soldiers were given bread as soon as
1t could be procured. Many Turks died
In the cholera camps from hunger be-
cause of the indifference and lack Of or
ganization of their fellows. On account
Of the danger Of infection the Bulgarians
passed the bread across the lines to Sc
lected orderlies but the supplies did not
always reach the men who needed food
the most. The horrors of this island of
death cannot be exaggerated. but the suf-
fering there was as much due to the In
difference of the Turkish doctors as to
Bulgarian neglect. Shukri Pasha was
praised by the Bulgarians for his heroic
defense of the city, but this awful island
Of death was the chief fruit of his hero
ism.
when / took charge Of the relief
work in this terrible detention camp l
was given an unlimited credit to draw
on the Bulgarian army supplies. but we
did not need greatly to deplete these
supplies on account of the provisions
sent by the British consul at Philip
popolis Not only did no massacres take
place in the mosques. but so well We're
they guarded that when we attempted
in spirit of mild vandalism, to remove
a piece of the Koran lying on the floor
of the Sultan Selim mosque, we were
prevented from doing SO by vigilant
man, who saw from a tower the long
gray columns OF Bulgarians entering the
city, said to me with feeling, The Bull
garians entered the city like gentlemen:

Mr.. Banker--
D. G. Farrar publicity manager Of
Union Trust Company, Pittsburgh, talks
on Bank Publicity
Does the public need the banke 49,
"Of course it does .rvvNyE~~r
"Then the bank has much of interest to
say to the public. Because whatever the
public needs it usually gets, once it has been
informed.
Bank advertising is today paying in
vestment in many cases; in some it is an ex-
ceedingly profitable one. But usually it is
a very hazy, indefinite proposition.
1.-THE reasons are as plain as MONDAY.
Just in SO far as your advertising really
helps the people, the people respond. And
just as sure as your copy is weak, character
less and indefinite, your results will be like
wise.
Newspaper space alone will not bring
depositors to the bank. It must be filed
with words that live and breathe, or it will
never influence living, breathing humans"

NAVY YARD EMPLOYE
HAS RESCUED MANY
When Harry D. Pfei Saved Woman
from Drowning at River View Sun
day Il Was His Fifth.

Five rescpes from drowning In the
past few years is the record Of Harry
D. Pfeil. an employe of the Washington
Southeast. 1t is doubtful II there Is an
other resident Of the District who can
boast of having saved as many lives as
has Mr.. Pfeil.
Ths latest rescue was last Sunday,
when he. instead of q Boy Scout, as 1t
was reported. dived into the Potomac
River at River View, and rescued q
woman who had leaped from the deck
OF the steamer. Charles H. Werner. as
it was leaving the pier. This made his
second rescue at River View. The other
occurred few years ago when woman
fell overheard from a launch.
As soon as Pfeil last Sunday saw TIE
woman. whose identity he has not yet
learned, jump from the hurricane deck
Of the boat, he dived over the side of his
motor boat. When he came to the sur
face the woman was going down for the
second time. The heavy current and
the fact that both the woman and h.In-
self were fully clothed made the task Of
rescue extremely difficult.
Pfeil clutched a pile, but his grasp was
not firm and he soon began to slip, maxi
ing his position perilous. A soldier
jumped into the river at an opporture
time and assisted them to safety. The
soldier was Private Thompson, of the
Fourteenth Infantry, stationed at Fort
Washington.
1t was not so long ago that Pfeil made
double rescue in the Eastern Branch.
Two boys had been swimming near the
gas house, and getting beyond their
depth, when Pfeil saw their plight and
went to the rescue.
His first rescue was made in Ba'ti-
more in 1877. when a young swimmer
dived into the bay In such a way as 10
disable himself. There were many ry-
ISLANDERS, but none attempted to help the
man until Pfeil saved him.
Pfeil is married and has four childrt n.
He has been employed in the construc-
ton and repair shop at the navy yard
fer fifteen years, and has run a motor
boat on the Potomac and Eastern
Branch for several yearx
