RUSSIAN INVASION
At VARNA DECLARED
TO Be BIG fIASC0

LONDON, Dec. 23.-Reports that
Russian troops have invaded Bulgaria
at Vsrna have come to nought. The
reports circulated on Tuesday that
varna had been bombarded by a Rus
si> n fleet and landing effected there
are probably explained by the follow.
ing telegram from Patrograd today.
On Tuesday two small Russian tor.
pedo boats chased a Bulgarian de.
stroyer into the harbor OF Varua.
Coast batteries opened fire upon the
Russian ships, but they escaped IN
damaged. Afterwards the Russian
ships came upon two Turkish sailing
ships and sank them"

Rules of the Game.

Industrial success is personal, not so
cial. Society is not holding a man
down; the existing social system is not
keeping men at the bottom; it is their
own personal deficiencies that keep
them there. Industrial success can be
won at a price. and the price is OBJ
servance of the inevita BILE rules of the
game sobriety, industry, saw
ing, avoidance of speculation, knowl-
edge of human nature, good judgment.
common sense, persistence, intelligence
and integrity. No social system ever
keeps a man down who has these quail
tiles. Is it not the best thing for the
world to find out that industrial sue
cess can be won only by the display
of these qualities ?-J. Laurence Laugh
lin in Atlantic Monthly.

DEEIED THE AUDIENCE.
Then the Audience Forced Adelaide
Nelson to Surrender.

Then the Audiences Forced Adelaide
Nelson to Surrender.
In "Forty Years On the Stage" the
author, John 81. Barnes, an old time
actor, has this to say of Adelaide Neil
son, the once famous star:
zone quite extraordinary gift she
had-namely, that of tears. At any
given moment or cue she could make
the tears mount to her eyes and even.
run down her cheeks irrespective of.
anything she was feeling at the time.
1t almost reSembled the turning on Of
a tap. Undoubtedly she had great
beauty-wonderfu eyes and an ex-
pressive mouth fine coloring of conn
plexion and hair and rather spare
figure.
"Her appearance suggested wom-
an Of Spanish or italian type. AS a.
matter of fact she was born Of humble
parents in a village in Yorkshire in
1S4S, and her real name was Elizabeth
Ann Brown. In her youth she was by
turns mill hand at Guiseley (Yoi .s),
a nursemaid and a barmaid. so rhe
strenuous life she must have led to
raise herself to the position she even
tually attained may be imagined.
An example of the temper that some
times fared from behind the Nelson,
beauty is included in this passage:
"a curious incident occurred in Bal
timore. The play was As You Like
It. Mines Levick played Jacques and
had spoken the Seven Ages speech
very finely. gaining tremendous ap-
plause at the end. Miss Nelson (as
far as know without intent) said, Go
on, go on and the scene was taken up
before the applause died down.
1.-The audience got annoyed and
seemed to feel that it was being treat
ed scurvily and kept up the applause
in a manner which stopped the play.
Miss Nelson ordered the curtain to be
rung down, and then the storm burst
out 1t became a battle royal between
her and the audience. who simply de-
clined to listen to a word until Mr..
Levick had repeated the speech. A
silly scene, which might have been
avoided, but became an absolute dead
lock, out of which there was only one
way. The audience was master of the
situation"
