doubled. The year closing July 81,
1899, had an aggregate student attend
apce Of 875; the year closing July 81,
1913, the aggregate enrolment was
l544. 1t is significant to note the ma
terial progress in the equipment and
endowment of the work. Comparing
the report of the year closing July 81,
1899, with that for the year closing
July 81, 1913, there is shown an increase
IN the value of the combined permanent
equipment, including real estate and
buildings of Nortlffcld seminary and
Mount HefmOn, from $500, 239.92 at the
earlier period to 2,247 ,965.15 at the
present time. During the same years
the endowment has increased from
S56Id to $l3,375 and a total Of 1871
have completed the full course of study
and graduated.
With the continued growth of the
schools there has been a continued
growth in the running expenses, so that
each year nearly 100000 has to be
| raised from outside sources by the trus-
| tees and president to meet the deficit
| incurred as is shown by last year s re-
| port: During last fiscal year the total
endowment income was $50 ,414.14; cash
received from students, education and
other fees, $143,S29.3l; received from
other sources, $7,S22.3l; gross cash re-
| ceipts, 1904, 065.76; total expenses,
| 1896, 1854; difference between gross
cash receipts and total expenses, 1892,
099.71; credited to work hour because
work done reduces cash outlay by just
so much, $32, 226.11; actual deficit
500, 873.60. These figures are for the
two schools. With the 1900 students
enrolled at the present time, each pay
ing one-half his actual expense, it viii
be seen from the above figures that il
order to insure a sufficient income fo1
the future an additional endowment OF
$2,000.000 is necessary Immediately
The plan, however, is to launch a cam
paign for 100000 additional endow
ment to cover approximately ne-hal
of the above deficit; and the balance t,

WIFE IS NURSING
DYING HUSBAND
SHE SHOT
Hall County Farmer Shot While
Attempting to Stay Woman
With Ak.

GAINESVILLE, Feb. 9.-Spence
Carter, a wealthy farmer; to-day lies
at the point of death at his home in
the upper part of Hall County as the
result of a gunshot wound, and his
wife, who shot him, is tenderly nurs-
ing him.
The shooting took place Sunday
about noon. when after a heated
quarrel Carter in his rage picked up
a heavy ak, swung it over his head
and advanced upon his wife, who
snatched a 2-caliber rifle from a
corner and shot him, the ball strik-
ing just below the heart and ranging
downward He fell across a bed I'M
conscious and his wife tenderly
dressed the wound.
Sheriff E. a. Spencer arrived soon.
but Mrs Carter begged to be allowed
to nurse her husband. Carter also
asked that she stay, saying that the
whole affair was his fault; that in
his rage he would have Drained her,
and that she shot in self defense.
She was not put under arrest, and
has since the shooting hung in tender
solicitude over the bedside of her hus-
band, who is said 10 be dying. His
physician, DR.. f. p. Ham, stated to-
day that there was small hope of his
recovery
The cause of the trouble is not
known, though it is said another wo-
man is suspected to have figured in
It, Their married life seemed to have
been happy and contented. They have
four children.

Bulgar Minister
Thanks u. S.For
Aid to STARRING

LONDON, Feb. 9.-M.. j. Nadia
off, Bulgarian Minister to the Cour
If st. James, to-day, In behalf of tn
nation, expressed CRATE
'ul thanks to the American peopl
or the splendid help being accorde'
he suffering refugees in the BaI
lans He said:
None can overestimate our
thanks, but 1t is hard for us to
express them. We Bulgarians
are at once a very poor and a
very proud people. We are
deeply conscious of the needs of
our suffering brethren, and our
hearts are full of thanks to the
kind, generous-hearted people
who have stepped forward in
their relief We find it difficult
to put these feelings into
words. Among us there is al
ways an awful dread of being
mistaken for public beggars.
| would like to make Ameri-
cans understand that we are
undergoing merely temporary
misfortune, which we hope to
rise above in a very short time.
In the meantime, thousands of
our people are undergoing the
most dreadful restitution. For
what America is doing for these
please accept my heartfelt
thanks. | would like to say
that our Government hopes to
do all possible in the shortest
time to set our people on
proper basis once more.
Very soon now the Agricul-
tural Bank, which is State insti-
tuition, will have available a sum
of from three TO four millions OF
francs which will be loaned to
agriculturists for the purpose of
purchasing farming implements
and seed for crops as well as for
building materials.
We only want to see one good
harvest. After that we will be
able to find ourselves. More
over, throughout the country,
even in the smaller villages, col
lections are being made. Those
who have money are cheerfully
giving a substantial proportion
to aid their less fortunate
brethren.
1t is the next two or three
months that matter with us.
During this time we must keep
alive the thousands of starving
refugees. The best idea of our
plight can be given by stating
that most of the schools in our
capital, Sofia, are still given up
to protect the destitute suffer
ers from the weather. The
pupils have been temporarily
put aside until these unfortu-
Mates have been taken care of.

for a trip into uneXplored Thibet
She will sail this week for Singapore
where she will be joined by number
of British officers who are familiar
with the known parts of the region
to the southwest OF China.
Men have won all the renown
as explorers" she said TO a re

women should not add to the glo-

If Mrs. Campbell succeeds in her
difficult undertaking she will add
considerable to the glory Of her sex
for practically the greater part OF
Thibet has been unknown territory
since the days of Marco Polo.
Regions Are Barbarous.
The remoteness of these regions
the great mountain ranges to be
crossed the hostility OF barbarous
tribes, and the jealous attitude toward
the outside world OF the religious
classes, have constituted sufficient
barriers.
From Shanghai Mrs. Campbell and
her expedition will proceed up the
Yangtze- Nang River to Batang, the
metropolis of the Chinese -Thibetan
border. Then begins the arduous part
OF the journey. Up the dark Di-Chu
River, the course lies into very
dangerous country.
The first tribe to be encountered by
the woman explorer the Pa Urgs,
hold her sex in very little respect. In
addition they are very savage and the
various clans are constantly at war.
