original He believes in rich men. He
thinks the Rockefellers, the Carnegies.
the Weyerhaeusers. and the Morgans
are what make a country great. To
develop his crude nation he deliber-
ately set out to favor certain indl-
viduals Grasping methods he encour-
aged. And these industrial empires
he made the framework of his own
political empire.
What his success has been was seen
in the recent Balkan wars. In the
first war the Bulgarians swept al
most to the gates of Constantinople,
carrying everything before them. Oh
course. Ferdinand, or somebody made
a grave mistake in starting the sec
ond war. where Bulgaria tackled Ser
via and Greece and lost almost all she
had gained in the first conflict. But
this setback in the face of great odds
did not upset the argument that Ferdi
nand had done wonders in his quarter
of a century at the head of the Bul
gariaD people
In person Ferdinand is large. he has
a magnificent heavy beard and pres
ence which commands respect among
one of the toughest and most head
strong people in the world. He Is
man OF the strangest contrasts. Sus
pected of having the man who pu
him on the throne, Stamboulon, thu
great bulgarian patriot, put to dealt
with tideous tortures, he is yet in hi
calmer moments devoted TO the sim
plest of hobbies, the collection OF but
terfies and wild flowers. II is said h

forth to war with the Turks among hi
beloved cabinets and albums.
Yet ne is a man of the most redoubt

WAYIAND, Mo-. Sept. 26.-Un-
able to rest since the death Of his
mother last Sunday. fact which is
thought may have caused his mind to
become effected, Thomas Mailer,
thirty-fve years old, attempted to
kill himself this morning near his
home three miles north of Wayland.
He severed the arteries in his wrists.
Mailer used knife in the evident
attempt to end his life. He was dis
covered however, and DIR. Miller
summoned. The physician sewed the
arteries and believes at this time that
his patient will recover.
Mr.. Mailer lives on farm about
three miles north Of Wayland. His
mother died and was buried last
Sunday and he has been unable to
rest, and Friday his mind seemed to
be effected.
He has always been an industrious
and extremely prosperous farmer,
having accumulated several hundred
acres Of land and has his land well
stocked. He is married and has one
child. His many friends wish him
speedy and complete recovery.

Armour Rescues rraders.

Chicago, July 3l-Armour' mil lions today rescued the wheat trade from panic. Instead of chaos result ing from a settlement day in the midse of a war market with possibly scores of firms embarrassed and a certainty that bankruptcies, few or many, would ensue, the Chicago tain it's record of never having closed. no matter how great the emergency Tonight not one failure had taken place. The chief reason was that 75 eatangled firms and in- dividuals on change were freely given today by Armour & Go. what ever aid the necessities of the situa- tion required
 George F. Marcy, president of the Armour Grain Company, was the man who rose to the occasion. He quietly circulated word on the floor of the board partly in person and partly through his ieutenants, that any member in trouble only need come to him. Before aightfal Ar mour & Co had taken over eight million bushels in open trades which. if not transferred, were critically in danger of not being safely settled in due contract time on the expiration of business hours at tae end Of the month.
 In addition to the relief extended directly, President Marcy ordered the sale of 100000 bushels of wheat il. the open market and was thus largely instrumental in preventing Chicago prices from paralleling the wild up ward sweep that in Liverpool today came ahead of a steep subsequent fall.
 The Armour sales of wheat were supp emented by simultaneous dis posal of 100000 bushels of corn and an equal quantity of oats. These sales were afterward covered by numerous gradual urcAasers, when ever pit conditions would allow with out disturbing the course Of prices.
 Mr Marcy tonight said:
 The Chicago Board of Trade to.,. day owed a duty to the country not to close. 1t was not a similar case to that of the Stock Exchange in New York. Millions Of bushels of grain in transit had to be cared for and the effect on railroad and other interests had to be taken into ac- count Grains are commodities al most wholly unlike stocks and bonds"
 Possibly a clear idea of the strain that reached a climax today can be obtained from one well verified ex- ample On single trade, one firm here of excellent standing was called on for $G50oO0 in margins s400. .ooo at first and $25O,O0O on a second de- mand.
