RumaRia's Settlement With e
Bulgaria May Widen European War
(From the New York prlbune)

The most important news from the
Balkans since Turkey entered the
war is the announcement OF recon
ciliation between Rumania and Bull
garia. Rumania, according TO the
announcement made yesterday by the
Bulgarian minister in Pctrograd, has
agreed TO restore the territory ac-
quired from Bulgaria at the end Of
the second Balkan war. That terri
tory, lying south of the Danube river
on the Black Sea coast, was taken by
Roumania in the general spoliation
which followed the defeat Of the Bull
garians by Greece and Seryia and the
unopposed march on Sofia Of King
Charles's army.
In the second Balkan war Bulgaria
was the victim not alone of vaulting
ambition and oYer-coniidence i'm her
military strength. but of a series Of
accidents which worked TO rob her Of
the legitimate fruits of Kirk -Killisse
and Lule Burgas. The associates in
the Balkan Loaguo-Groece, Seryia,
Bulgaria and Montenegro-did not
count on complete collapse of the
Turkish military power. Bulgaria
did not expect 10 conquer Thrace.
Her main object was TO free the Bull
garian population OF Macedonia from
Turkish oppression. Her interest lay
i'm Macedonia, not in Thrace, and in
the agreement made before the war
she was TO be compensated, in case of
success. by the acquisition of the
Bulgarian sections OF Macedonia.
Servia, Montenegro and Greece had
expected TO take Eprus, Albania and
the Sanjak of Novibazar as their
share of the spoils
Balgaria's easy victories, which
carried her to the gates OF CONSTANT
nople, upset these plans. The Euro
pean powers were alarmed at the
stupendous success of the Balkan
League and determined to take a
hand in the partition of Turkey
Austria-Hungary and Italy opposed
Servian expansion toward the
Adriatic, insisted on the creation oI
the independent Kingdom OF Albanis
and forced Servia and Greece to looh
for compensation i'm Macedonia. Con.
ditions having been altered by out.
side pressure and Bulgaria having
taken possession of the greater par
of Thrace, which she did not at all
covet new deal became necessary
Yet instead of negotiating a new ant
friendly settlement Bulgaria decided

Travelled by water 10 Smyrna. and then
tramped to Adrianople, about 500 miles

"a woman had come who had some
thing to declare from the Great God
to the Sultan"
He arranged for an audience with
his master. at which three dragomans

The Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas when all through
the house
Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse;
The stockings hung by the chimney with care
In hope that St. Nicholas would be there.
The children we're nestled all snug in their BEDS
While visions of sugar-pums danced through their
heads;
And Mamma in her kerchef, and in.my cap
Had just settled our brains for a long winters nap
When out on the lawn arose such clatter
sprang from my bed to see what the matter.
Away to the window flew like flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the SASH
The moon the breast Of the new-fallen snow
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below;
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
knew in a moment it must be ST. Nick!
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled and shouted and called them by
name;
Nov Dasher now, Dancer! now, Prancerl now,
Vixen!
On, Comet on, Cupid on, DOnner and Blitzen!-
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away dash away ALL"
AS dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with obstacle, mount to the sky,
So to the housetop the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys and ST. Nicholas
And then in twinkling heard the roof
The prancing and paving of each little hoof.
AS drew in my head and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas with bound.
He dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes we're all tarnished with ashes and
SCOT;
bundle of toys he had flung his back,
And he look like pedder just opening his pack.
His eyes how they twinked his dimples how merryl
His cheeks we're like roses his like a cherry;
His dro little mouth drawn up like bow
And the beard his chin was white as the snow,
The stump of pipe he held tight in his teeth
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath
He had broad face, and little round belly
That shook when he laughed like bowl full or jelly
He was chubby and pumpa right jolly old elf
And laughed when saw him in spite of myself.
wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know had nothing TO dread.
He spoke not word but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings then turned with a
jerk
And laying his finger aside of his
And giving nod, up the chimney he rose
He sprang to his Sleigh to his team gave whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle;
And heard him exclam he drove out of sight,
Happy Christmas to all, and to all good night"
