The date of the mar riage has not yet been determined. The sum of $60,000 was spent by the National Association of Audubon societies this year for bird protection. It is announced that Mrs. Margaret Sage has renewed her pledge of $5,000 a year for three years for the protec tion of the rovin in the Southern states. When the sultan of Turkey went to war with Bulgaria he sent a sack of millet with a letter stating that "there are as many soldiers in Turkey as there are grains of millet in this sack." The czar replied, in kind, with a smaller sack, filled with tiny grains of red pepper, that "be sure if you stick your nose into our affairs it is like sticking it into our national condiment. Try it and see." When the American marines on Oc tober 4 charged up and captured Coy atepe hill near Masaya, Nicaragua, after having raked the insurgent po sition with their batteries of rapid firing guns lying around the dead rebels was a Nicaraguan woman, a modern Molly Pitcher. Clutched in her hands was a one-pound shell which she was trying to load into a rebel fieldpiece when a bullet from the American forces struck her, and she fell death beneath the gun. After wheeling his invalid chair to the railing surrounding the fourth floor veranda of the MontefioreHome for Incurables, Max Snodowsky, an in mate, drew himself up to the edge and toppled over into the courtyard, 40 feet below.

Standing by as an interested specta tor, while a large ballon was being drowne(j jn the Delaware river when the ferryboat on which they were inflated at Wilmington, N. C, for an ascension by a professional, J. W. Smith, 42 year old, a farmer of an adjoining county took an involuntary flight, when the bag broke from its moorings and sailed majestically at an altitude of several thousand feet, He was unhurt., however. The silence of Sofia concerning the great battle in Thrace has at last been broken by a brief dispatch an nouncing a Bulgarian victory and the capture of the town of Luleburgas. Adrianople is now completely sur rounded by the Bulgarians whose at tacks are meeting with great sue cess, according to the minister. The position of the Turks is critical There are persistent rumors that the Bulgarian cavalry has reached Re dosto, where the Turks have beer. landing troops brought from Asia Minor. Three masked men, little more than boys, held up and robbed southbound Missouri, Kansas and Texas train No 9 at Kirth, Okla., six miles south of Eufaula. The ''bandits flagged down the train as it rounded a curve onto a small trestle which they had set on fire. Uncoupling the engine, ex press car and baggage car from the other coaches, they ordered the en gineer to run a half mile farther south, where the express safe was blown open and ransacked. Express officials declared that they could no tell the amount of loot, but expressed the belief that it will amount to sev eral thousand dollars. Money lenders in New York City do an annual business of twenty mil lion dollars; more than one hundred thousand persons, including 30,000 municipal employees are in their clutches and state courts are the un witting instruments through which usury is collected, according to a re port made public by investigators for District Attorney Whitman. Other facts set forth in the report are that "loan sharks" have been responsible for a great many suicides, defalca tions and petty thefts. John Bernauer, the youthful Bava rian who robbed the residence of J. P. Morgan, Jr., in New York City, and other wealthy persons of thousands of dollars' worth of jewelry, freely re lated in court the story of his bur glaries, but declared he was under the hypnotic spell of an old pal at the time. Bernauer entered a plea of guilty, however, and was sentenc ed to from five to ten years in Sing Sing prison. He boasted in court of how he stole into the very room Where Mr. Morgan was asleep and ransacked the financier's dresser.

He was a prominent man in middle Georgia. President Madero refused to par don Gen. Felix Diaz, the insurgent leader, who was captured by General Beltram's Federals at Vera Cruz and sentenced him to death by court martial. Former Police Lieut. Charles Beck er is in the death house at Sing Sing', N. Y., prison, under sentence to die In the electric chair, during the week of December 9. He was convicted of the murder of Herman Rosenthal. He was taken there from New York lm- crossing from Delaware, N. J., was wrecked. There were eight members in the party of two autmobolies. After the bombardment of Adrian ople, Czar Ferdinand's Bulgarian army has moved forward, capturing three forts at Marasch, with 1,800 prison ers. The southwestern part of the city was burned, having been fired by the Bulgarian batteries. Hugo Murphy and F. S. Miller were killed in a large gas tank at Cohoes, N. Y. Miller gave his life in trying to save his companion. Both men were drowned. While not actually under martial law, the city of Havana, Cuba is no under absolute military protection against disorders arising from the heated political campaign. In ac cordance with orders issued by Gen. Pablo Mendieta, who was appointed by President Gomez to take charge of all the police and military foreres in the capital, the streets were pa trolled by police and mounted and foot rural guardsmen. In addition de tachments of regular troops of all arms were stationed at various strat egic points ready to respond instant ly to a call to suppress rioting. Katmai volcano, in Alaska, which caused great damage on the Alaskan peninsula and adjacent islands last June, Is believed to be in violent eruption again. Secretary of the Treasury Mac Veagh, with one swoop, abolished the time-honored drinking cup from rail road cars, vessels and other convey ances operated in interstate traffic, and from depots and waiting rooms of common carriers. Asystem of graft in the navy com missary department which may reach every ship in the Atlantic fleet has been revealed by a secret investiga tion. At proper intervals for the next six weeks 125 enlisted men in the New York City navy yard will be chewingl forty kinds of tobacco to decide the brand to be bought for navy use. Bids have been opened in Washing ton, D. C, from fifteen dealers, who want to furnish 20,000 pounds, about a year's supply for he American navy. Prices ranged from 32 to 42 cents for various grades. The contract may not go to the lowest bidder. Chemical tests will be made and the men's de cision will be the ultimate choice. Are you a potato doctor? If so, you may be eligible to a permanent job in the national department of ag riculture, where there will be no scarcity of patients. Incidentally, the position pays $2,240 a year. Appli cants must" be at least 30 years old and under 45. Crackling and sputtering with life, the navy's new wireless station at Arlington, Va., across the Potomac from Washington, D. C, the most powerful in the world, flung from its lofty aerials the first message which signalized the completion of an im portant step in the building of a globe girdling wireless system which will keep every ship of the United States navy and every insular possession within instant communication with the capitol at Washington. The radius of the new plant will be three thous and miles, but will be weeks before the big instrument is "tuned up." Raleigh. The only question about the general election in North Carolina being that of by what majorities the Democratic candidates will be select eu this time, interest is already gath ering about the matter of the next legislature and the contests and busi ness likely to come up. Candidacy has already been de clared by Hon. E. M. Koonce of Ons low county and Hon. George W. Connor of Wilson for the speakership of the house of representatives. There are those who are predicting that E. J. Justice, who was the speak er of the house for the strenuous ses sion of 1909, will also be in the race before the legislature assembles. The issue that promises most stir is that of possible legislation that will tend to relieve North Carolina of al-. leged discriminations by railroads in the matter o flong haul freight rates. This is very much of an issue among shippers in all parts of the state. It seems improbable that there will be any fight this session over anti trust legislation that has figured so Conspicuously fo several sessions past. The impression is very general that the legislature will go very exten sively into plants for state-wide road building and may adopt a system of state bonds to finance county and township bonds on an extensive scale for this work on a big scale. Also there will be the issue of limiting work of convicts to road building under some comprehensive scale, -in stead of the present system of hiring convicts out for railroad building, or working them on a big state farm as at present.
