THE BULGARIAN CAR

garia. in 1887, following the enforced
abdication of Prince Alexander. He
declared himself Gar of Bulgaria in
1908, and obtained recognition as
such from the principal European
powers. The recent meeting between
Ferdinand and Emperor William at
Nish recalls the fact that as late as
1918 the relations between these
rulers was far from cordial, and the
Car was snubbeds by the Kaiser. In
greeting the German Emperor, Fer
dinand expressed the hope that by
the alliance his people would be per-
rnitted to share in 1.-THE 4 glorious
fruits Of kultur,'' and hailed the
Kaiser as "a. redeemer, bearing pros
perity and safety to the oppressed"
There is no doubt that Ferdinand
was chiefly responsible for commit
ting Bulgaria to the German cause.
The people at large favored continued
neutrality, and were decidedly averse
to fighting on the side Of their an
cient enemies, the Turks, but Ferdi-
nand had sufficient power to overDuIe
the will of the people. The Bulgar
Gar owns vast estates in Austria. and
Hungary, and the fear that they
would be. seized if he did not support
the Central Empires may have had
something to do with his decision to
plunge his country into war. For
many months before he reached his
decision Ferdinand lived in sec1usion
in one Of his castles, bordering the
fateful question, and he decided on
his policy without consulting others,
emerging from his retirement to mob
iIize his army and declare war.

PREBLE CENTENARY

Today marks the centenary of the
birth of George Henry PrebIe, fam
Gus as an officer of the United States
navy He was born in Portland, Me-,
and was a nephew of Edward Preble,
who commanded the American squad

Asiatic waters In the civil war he
served under Farragut in the Gulf
region, and later commanded a naval
bri gade in the battle of Honey Hill,

Gus important posts, retiring in 1878,
five years before his death, with the
rank of rear-admiral.

DEATH PENALTY
FOR AIDING Yep
RAIDS ON BRITISH
Persons Displaying Light of
Any Kind Will Be Shot
Down.

London, Feb :. 25.-F'ollowing the
Zeppelin raid on the midland coun-
ties this notice was posted in a Lin
colnshire town:
TN the future, any person seen
flashing a light or letting off any. sort
of rocket or f1rework when hostile
aircraft are present or expected will
be fired on without, notice.
So much fable has grown up around
the Zeppelin raids that it is impos-
sib1e to tell whether or not there is
any basis of fact to the stories of spies
communicating with the invaders by
means of signal lights. After every
raid a crop of stories appears about
upturned light concealed in the body.
These stories are all svouched for but
always come by hearsay.
One arrest, however, did result in
Lincolnshire after the raid. Walter
John Bott, a commercial traveller for
mailing house, was brought before
the Lincoln police court on the charge
of displaying a light in such a man
ner as to serve as a signal during the
raid. Witnesses said that Bott fash
ed a powerful electric torch in the
street when the Zeppe1ins were heard.
Bolts defense was that he was treat
ing some passers-by to a drink and
used the light in filing a glass. The
authorities took the view that to dis
play a light of any sort at such a time
was a serious matter.
Thousands Of cases reported to the
police by we11-meaning persons turn
out to be too absurd to investigate.
People who forget to pull their blinds
down after turning on lights and then
take >dum bell or Indian club exerci-
ses in full view of the street are often
est in trouble.
The fact that their movements could
not be seen a couple of hundred yards
away never occurs to the informers.
But regulations about keeping the
blinds down are closely enforced. In
the seacoast towns, not the sign. of a
light is allowed to escape from the
seward side of a house.
In the midland counties, lighting is
now much more strictly regulated
than before the raid. One large man
ufacturing town upon news of Yep
pe1ins shut off all street lights, tied
up the street. car service and closed
all factories except two which refused
to dismiss their night shifts After a
few hours, when all seemed to be safe,
the street cars resumed running. and
the flash from their trolley poles evil
IDENTIFY drew the raiders, for a num-
Der of bombs were soon dropped on
the town in quick succession. The
only two factories to suffer were those
that remained open.

William IT., Monarch of
Wurttemberg, Is 81 Today

William IL, King of Prussia and
Emperor of Germany, is not the only
monarch of that name, for the King
of the German state of Wurttemberg
is also William II. The latter was
born Feb. rs, 1848, sixty eight years
ago today Owing ohis age and i'll
health he has not taken any prominent
part in the war, his activities being
confined to reviewing troops and con-
ferring decorations King William as
suned the crown nearly quarter of
q century ago, when he succeeded
Karl l., who died without issue. The
present monarch is the son of a, cousin
of his predecessor on the throne. AS
he has no male descendants, the heir
presumptive is a distant k1nsman,
Duke Albert, now fifty years old.
Duke Albert is not likely to lack a
direct heir, as he has three sons, as
well as an equal number of daughters.
The Dukes wife was the Archduchess
Mar garetta of Austria, a niece of En-
peror Francis Joseph. She died four
teen years ago.
King William has. long been a vic
tim of a complication of ailments and
he has not been really well in many
years. The King has had two wives,
but neither have given him an heir.
His first consort was Princess Marie
of Waldeck, who died in 1882. By
her the King had a daughter, Prin-
cess Pauline, now the wife of Prince
Frederick of WED, a brother of the
tsKing'' of Albania. The present
Queen of Wurttemberg was Princess
Schaumburg-Lippe. King William re-
ceived the Order of the Garter from
King George V. several years ago.
Wurttemberg is the third in area of
the German Kingdoms, having an area
of 1928 square miles and population
of two and half millions, being much
less popu1ous although considerably
larger than the kingdom of Saxony.
Wurttenberg became a kingdom in
1906, having previously been a duc1ay.
King William is the fourth to hold
that rank. The first King, Frederick
L, acquired that title and additional
territorities for supplying a continent
of troops to Napoleon. He was sue
ceeded just a century ago by William
L. his son, who was the oldest living
sovereign in the latter years of his
reign. He died in 1854, and was sue
ceeded by his son, King Karl, who
died in 1891.

MARYLAND ASSEMBLY

The first colonial assembly to en-
Joy the right of Initiating legislation
was the Maryland Assembly which
convened at st. Mary's PIT years ago
today. The first session of the Mary
land Assembly was held in 1858, and
was composed of representatives of
the whole people, purely demo-
cratic legislature. In the beginning
every adult male citizen was permit
ted to sit in the Assembly, but, with
the increase in population, it was
found necessary to limit the number,
although there was still no legal. re-
striction on the number of delegates
the people might send. Under the
charter Lord Baltimore had the
power of enacting all necessary laws
for the colony, with the advice, con-
sent and appreciation Of the freemen
Of the province" The Assembly de-
nnanded the right of initiating 1egisla-
ton, however, and this was granted
by Lord Baltimore in 1888, and the
following year the Assembly met and
enacted the first statutes of Mary
land In their 1aw-making the
pioneer Mary1anders were entirely in
dependent of the British Parliament,
and enjoyed a, greater degree of au-
tonomy than any other English COL
ony.

that the colony of New Foundland will
face a food famine in May or June un-
less Immediate action is taken to Sc
cure better shipping facilities, the St.
Johns board of trade has made Wig
orous demand on the Colonial govern
ment to procure steamers. The board,
in a statement today asked that ar
rangements be made with the British
government to provide steamers even
if it becomes necessary for the Colon
ial government to subsidize them
New Foundland has already faced a
similar problem regarding coal Last
December coal shortage, caused by a
lack of vessels to bring it here, forced
the government to commander all the
available coal in st. Johns and dis
tribute it to the people in small lots.

CENTENARY OF
PARKE GOODWIN


One of the ablest Of the American
journalists of the Taste entury was
Parke Goodwin, who was born one
New Jersey. He came of an old and
patriotic family of pioneers, his
father having been an officer in the
war of 1912, and his grandfather a
soldier in the revolution. His earlf-
est ambition was in the direction of
a legal career, and, having graduated
from Princeton College and studied
law in Paterson, he went to Kentucky
and was admitted to the bar. He
soon tired of the profession and re-
turned to New York, where he en-
tered on his journalistic career as a
| New York Evening Post, of which
| William Cullen Bryant was editor-in-
chief and part proprietor. The poet
editor soon grew very fond of his
brilliant young assistant, and Goodwin
| was often invited to the Bryant home.
There a romance soon had it's fncep-
ton, for Goodwin fell in love with
| his chiefs daughter, Miss Fanny
| Bryant. His affection was recipro-
Gated, and in 1912, when Goodwin S
| was twenty-six, he led the young
woman to the altar.
Soon after his marriage Goodwin
decided to embark on a venture Of
his own, and started a weekly pub
/ nCaUOn callGQ Inc sPaLhI1nQGr. Inc
periodical was conducted with great
ability, and soon attained a consid-
cradle circulation, but, like so many
ambitious enterprises of that kind be-
fore and since, it lacked the financial
backing to make it permanently sue
cessfu1. After an existence of three
months The Pathfinder was lost in
the mazes Of financial despair. and
died. The young editor, sad but con-
siderably wiser, returned to the Ev-
ening Post and the service of his dis
| tinguished father-in-Iaw. In 1852 he
made a tour of Europe, and on his
1 return severed his connection with the
Evening Post, but was again connect
i ed with that publication from 1865
/ to 1873. For a time he was an edi-
! tor of Putnan's Monthly, a, pron1i-
nent periodical of that period. He
also wrote many books, and trans
lated several German literary works.
4 In his contributions to the Demo-
cratic Review he first advocated
many important reforms which were
afterward carried out in the consti-
| tuition and code of New York. AS a
| political essayist he was one of the
/ most popular writer's of his time. His
/ best known and most widely read
work, however, is his biography of
his famous father-in-law, William
Cullen Bryant. While less entertain
| ing than the Bryant biography writ
ten by the poets editorial associate,
John BigeIow, Godwin's work is more
| extended and complete, and gives a
much better picture of the life OF
the author of @tThanatopsis'' than any
/ other work extant. Goodwin lived to
a ripe old age, being in his eighty
| eighth year when he died early in
1904.
