COST OF WAR TO BULGARIA
Prof. Tsankoff Places country's Loss.
es at $685. 100000

Sofia, April 6.-Prof. Tsankoff has
figured out the cost of the Balkan
war to Bulgaria. The total credits
voted amounted to $62,000,00O. The
acquisitions for horses, supplies, and
other necessarles are estimated to
have cost s30,OOOOO0. The deficit in
the revenues of the country owing to
the hostilities amounted to 100000
900. Munitions and transportation
cost $3o,000,OOO.
The expenses of taking strategic
railways and other miscellaneous ex-
penses are placed at $36,O00,000. Pen
sions for soldiers incapaci.ated will
require the capital sum of SS0,000,O0O
The value of the territory ceded to
Roumania is placed at $300000,000
The grand total is thus $54S.000,0OO.
The number of lives lost was be-
tween $1,000 and $4,000, or between 6
and per cent of the adult male popu
lation of the country.

London. Tuesday. April The sec
Dad reading OF the Homo Rule for Ire

Commons last night by a majority OF
eighty. the vote being $50 TO 276. The

sions, as required by the Parliament
acs.
An interval OF some weeks will
now elapse. but the bill viii reach the
House OF Lords early In May. and
ought to be ON the statute book by
June
The tone Of the closing debate was
distinctly conciiatory. John Red

eleventh hour had not yet passed.
In Sir Edward Carsons speech, Sir
John Simon. the Attorney General,
said he recognized a great and signi-
ficient advance. The offer Of the Gov
eminent respecting Ulster, Sir John
said. was still open.
Mr.. Bonar Law. the Opposition lead
er. offered to consent to the bill as
amended by the Ulster proposals II It
were approved at a general election
Further. he expressed his willingness
to renew the conversations" with
the Government II II desired.
But though the atmosphere OF the
debate was calm, it cannot be said
that any great progress was made
toward a settlement. The suggested
way to peace by Federalism received
scanty support, and all the other va
rious plans for Cancellation were
again canvassed. yet no bargain was
struck.

AT 1880 o'clock tonight Underwood

personal encounters at the polls we're
reported, none was OF a serious ma

Early returns indicated that the
three-cornered contest for the Alaba-

Senate would rest between Ray Rush

White OF Birmingham. These two
candidates apparently had distanced

VOICE CULTIVATION.
II Is Said That tho Average American
Needs Il Badly.


The American voice lacks cadence.
The touch OF harmony is lacking. In
depth or shrillness Its strongest quail
~ Is monotony of tone.
In conversation 1t is colorless. and
half OF the resources of the vocal cords
are unused or undeveloped. a strident.
high pitched. nasal voice fails in say
ing any good thing well.
Every one has the power OF speaking
with sweet infection. Every one can
attain a reposeful utterance and clear
enuuciation by training the ear and
voice TO work together in avoiding
harsh tones and cultivating the middle
and more mellow register in every
voice.
Excitement sends it up to n scream
ing pitch. but self control will lower
it again. and its playground should be
through the varying harmonies or ca
dences of five notes.
According to Thomas Wentworth
Higginson. our English cousins put
more cadence, more up and down. into
an inquiry, What time is it," than
Americans would into the announce
ment that a president was shot. A
crowd OF baseball fans will pitch the
cheering on high note and yell it
self hoarse. In the same number of
Europeans the shouting would be full
OF undertones and cadences. They
would sing their enthuslasm.-New

BASEBALL MEETING
Bennington Association to Consider
PIans for Coming Season


President Walter H. Berry, of the
Remington baseball association, has
called a meeting at the Office of Ed
ward L. Bates. Friday evening of this
week. to consider ways and means
for the coming baseball season.
The situation this year is peculiar,
in that the prospects for professional
baseball in this vicinity are far from
good. The directors of the North Ad-
ans association have decided not to
hire a professional team this year.
but to depend upon local players.
Hoosick Falls, of course, can not be
considered and as yet Rutland has
made no move in the direction Of
baseball.
Bennington can not run a profes-
sional team without opposing clubs to
play against, and for this reason
some of the men who have always
taken an interest in the sport are ia
voring local team to play with clubs
from other towns in the county. No
definite plans have been made but
the fans are beginning to discuss the
situation.

that he and his associates would pre-
fer that they should lose all OF their
millions invested In the coal feds
than that American workingmen
should be deprived Of the right under
the Constitution to work for whom
they pleased"
Mr.. Rockefeller said that he
thought his chief duty as a director
was TO place honest and capable oflic-
ers In control OF the business. He
said he would rather rellnquish his
interests in Colorado and close down
the mines than 10 recognize the
unions under the circumstances. He
Is not opposed to unions as such, he
said. but he did object to unions
which tried to force men to join them
and which deprived men Of the llber

He said that a recognition OF tn.
Mine Workers Union would mean
the reputation OF the employees who
had been faithful enough to remain
with the company during the strike.
Mr. Rockefeller said he favored ar

said that he would consider arbitra-

When III. Minuet Was the VOGUE.

In the days when it was the vogue
the stately minuet carried with it its re-
sponsibilities. Thus. for instance, Aus
ten Leigh on the eighteenth century
minuet: at was not every one who
felt qualified TO make this public ex-
hibition. and those ladies who intend
ed to dance minuets used to distin-
guish themselves by wearing partic-
ular kind of lappet on their headdress.
have heard also of another curious
proof of the respect in which this
dance was held. Gloves Immediately
clean were considered requisite for its
due performance. while gloves little
solled were thought good enough for
country dance. and accordingly some
prudent ladies provided themselves
with two pairs for their several pur-
poses. "-London Standard.

GOOD RoAr-s AND BAD
Cheap Piece Of Street That Has
stood a Lot Of Wear

Editor Of The Banner:-Sp Speaking
Of good roads" there is a short sec
ton of North street, abuttlng on Main,
q feet VIDE by 221 feet long, that was
laid down eleven years ago, and is
sill in pretty good condition despite
the fact that the gas company cut
trench the entire length of it on one
side and the telephone company a
like trench the whole length OF the
opposite side, while water pipe has
burst under /. twice and possibly
dozen sewer and water connections,
and yet. where the surface has not
been disturbed, it is apparently about
as good today as when laid.
After it was built it was scraped
with square nosed shovels and swept
with barn brooms twice a week for a
month or nine times the street sprink
Ter not being permitted to shed
drop OF water on il meantime. No 9th
ef piece Of Macadam street, SO far as
we are aware Of, WAS ever submitted
to such a test.
The material used was crushed
screenings from the Pike gravel pit,
about so per cent lime stone of vary
ing degrees of hardness, 10 per cent
of quartzite, per cent Of quartzose
and per cent of rather pure quartz.
There were IA tons of detritus, or
binder flushed into the surface course
aud about half a ton scraped from
the surface in the first cleaning.
The total cost, allowing even so
small an item as kindling to start the
FIRE in the road roller, but not allow
ing interest on the value of the roller
while in use, was 1913, or less than 81
the square yard. Has there ever been
any better or less costly piece of road
work in Bennington? Do we want
any more like it? Apparently not for
such is the wisdom of the fathers of
the village

About 700 al Annual Event In Boston
Consume 600 Pounds Of Sugar

Boston. April THE Vermont AS
ISOLATION OF Boston had its annual
-sugarlng-on" party At Horticultural
han last evening and II was the most
largely attended as well as the most
successful AFFAIR OF the kind ever held
BY the association
And Il Was simply reminiscent OF
the Green Mountain state. for the ma
pie sugar. the cider. the snow and
pretty nearly every one OF the 700
men and women present came from
Vermont. The only Wand used that
did not come from Vermont was the
doughnut-or rather the doughnuts.
for there were 1900 OF them. II took
600 pounds OF maple sugar. 10 barrels
OF snow and a fierce OF cider 10 salts
fy the party.
This sugaring-on may need a 1T
tie explanation. First the sugar Is
melted into syrup in large kettles and
Il Is served warm in individual pitch
ers-small ones. Each guest has a
bowl OF snow. packed hard. You pour
a little OF the snow into a saucer.
then spoon II In the snow. After It
is chilled you eat r.: or rather you
chew IL. for the chill brings the strip
to a chewing consistency. You wash
Il down with the cider and you eat a
doughnut or two by way OF dessert.
This sounds simple. but II isn't as
simple as II sounds for II you don't
get the right chill on the syrup you
are apt TO get into trouble. and I'M
less you handle the cider with know
ledge and skill you get into more trou
bic. especially in the dance that al
ways follows.
II Is possible TO dance a waltz or a
Virginia reel to tango music unless
you get the right proportion OF cider.
However, nothing OF that kind occur
red, for there were Vermont veterans
present like Col. Benton and Capt.
Bradley and Scott Clifton Carbee to
help the uninitiated and steer them
on their way rejoicing. In fact. most
OF the prominent Vermonters In and
around Boston were present.
During the feast there was some
good singing by the entire party I'M
der the leadership Of Ralph f. Brown
and both before and after the feast
there was dancing in the main hall.
The dinner was served in the exhibit
ton hall at long tables. and it was a
regular family party" In the dance
hall over the orchestra hung the ma
tional flag and the Vermont state
flag.
