EXARCH JOSEPH'S DEATH
is BLOW TO Bull CARA
One of First Patriots, he Labored to
Unity Nation Under One
Head.

Correspondence of the Associated Press
SOFIA. July SIN the recent death
of the Exarch Joseph there has passed
away one of the first Bulgarian patrt-
OTIS. His whole career was devoted to
bringing the Bulgarian nation together
under one political head, as well as
under one church.
LaZar Yovcheff was born in the Bull
garian town of Kalofer in 1910, where
his ability was early recognized. Bull
garia was then under Turkish domi-
nation. This led YovcheY, after TAX
ing the degree of doctor of laws at the
Sorbonne. in Paris, to go to CONSTANT
nople. where he first tried to get
political job. Meantime his writings
had attracted the attention Of the
Greek patriarch. AS the result he was
in 1872 induced to take holy orders
He did SO under the ecclesiastical name
of Joseph. Four years later he was
consecrated Bishop of Loftsha. In 1877
he was made the head Of the Bulga-
rian church.
During the Russo-Turkish war of
1877 and later during the various minor
Joseph faced a trying position. as
much of his spiritual dominion was in
Turkey. The liberation of Bulgaria
from direct Turkish control with the
signing of peace between Russia and
Turkey left the Bulgarian schools in
the hands of the Greeks. This caused
bitter feeling on the part of the Bull
garians against the Greeks, while the
Turks were greatly excited over the
expulsion Of their countrymen from
Bulgaria. So bitter was the feeling that
a strong party Of Bulgarians advocated
submission to the Church of Rome to
gain the aid of the western powers
During the intrigues and the minor
uprisings in the Balkans Joseph stuck
to his post. He obtained a material in
crease in the extent of his clerical ter
ritory during the Turco-Greek war of
1897.
Bulgaria declared complete indie
pendence of Turkish influence in 1908.
But on account of the Bulgarian sees
in Turkey he remained in CONSTANT
nople until he saw the overthrow Of
much of his work in the late Balkan
wars In December, 1913, he removed
to Sofia, where he remained until his
death, July 3.
