ATROCITIES OF THE TVRKISH THOOPS .„. . . ^ AFTER THE CAPTURE OF KRUSHEVO I ^wnr b'EKI* The map shows the position of'the Balkan states and the location ef ^Various points of interest, particularly Monastir, where the Russian consul C: ; K was killed, and Krkshevo, which was retaken from the insurgents with i,"Vv'i|n"eat slaughter. In the upper right hand corner of the map is Sofia, the, ^ capital of Bulgaria, from which the revolutionary movement is directed. ! : ^ ' 3'>•' The following letter from a mission­ ary in Turkey, contains the first au­ thentic news of the atrocities com­ mitted by the Turkish soldiers at the ttcking of Krushevo: Krushevo is situated on the summit of a hill eight hours' journey to the northwest of Monastir. It contains 2,000 houses and 10,000 inhabitants, .mostly Wallachs calling themselves Greeks. There are only about 100 Bulgarian houses, and the owners of these are poor. The Wallachs are prosperous merchants who go abroad on business, leaving their families at Krushevo, and after making their for­ tunes by diligence and economy re­ turn to spend their wealth on fine houses, furniture, jewels and yictoas indulgence. The bazaar and market are frequented by the inhabitants of the surrounding villages. Its Turkish neighbors have long looked askance at the prosperity of Krushevo. The Macedonian committee, on the other .hand, had already concerted arrange­ ments with the Bulgarians in Krush­ evo, with a viewio bringing about dis­ turbances there. This became known in July last, when the Mudir of Krush­ evo observed a certain movement among the Bulgarians, and warned the Vali of Monastir, begging him to •end to Krushevo sufficient reinforce­ ments, as the garrison of thirty sol­ diers was inadequate. The Vali of Monastir, having received repeated warnings from the Mudir of Krushevo, the latter, at the end of July, went in person to Monastir to consult the , Vail. Sunday, August 2, was the day fixed lor the Bulgarian attack upon Kresh- evo. On that day four marriages were celebrated in the Greek church there. After the last marriage a Komitaji, acting in concert with the band out­ side, remained hidden in the church. The sacristan locked the doors and de­ parted at ten o'clock. In the course of the night the Komitaji who had hidden himself mounted the steeple, and began to sound an alarm, ring­ ing the bell. Simultaneously a band oi 300, commanded by Petroff, enter­ ed the town, firing their rifles. The terrified inhabitants, remained in their houses. The band proceeded to tae house of Mudir, which they burn­ ed. The garrison of thirty soldiers surrendered and were massacred. The officials were also killed, but the Ko- mitajis spared the Turkish harems. On Monday morning the Komitajis es­ tablished a provisional government, consisting of a police and a munici­ pality. They killed ten Christians who they considered had betrayed the plans of the committee. They also called upon the notables, a list of whom had already been prepared, and compelled them to contribute a sum Of $10,000. The Turks hearing of the capture of Thursday, the 13th, seven battalions, with one battery of artillery, had as­ sembled at Krushevo under Bakhtiar Pasha, who proposed that, the Komita­ jis should allow the women and child­ ren to leave the town, but this pro­ posal was rejected. On Thursday morning the bombardment of the town began. When the third bomb was thrown the Komitajis abandoned the town, and, taking advantage of the cover afforded by traversing ravines, escaped into the neighboring forest, where pursuit was impossible. All resistance on the part <ft Krushevo then ceased, and the Turks entered the town. Meanwhile,, however, the Turkish villagers in the neighborhood, all bad characters, assembled in the Turkish camp. These villagers, knowing all the houses of the families in Krushevo, guided the soldiers in their attack MHE WAt NOT SENSITIVE. 1 A Bulgarian Outpost. Krushevo sent immediately from Per- lepe three squadrons of cavalry. As these were marching along the high­ way they were attacked and compelled to retire, leaving 100 of their number killed. After this check the Turks began slowly to concentrate, and by Frenchman Wins Popularity. The democratic marriage of Camille PeDetan, the French minister of ma­ rine, to the sister of the sheriff's of­ ficer who formerly worried him with so many writs as to establish an ac­ quaintanceship, afterward deepening ttato warm friendship, has made the bridegroom suddenly popular in Paris. The groom is 66 years of age and his bride, Adele Josephine Denise, ML - King Sets Good Example. Although the new motor act passed hp the British parliament limiting the speed of automobiles does not apply to the king--he is technically exempt from all restrictions of law--King Ed­ ward has given his chauffers strict or­ ders to obey its provisions to the let­ ter, thus getting a good "Example to his subjects. 8chwab to Have New Villa. Charles M. Schwab has purchased a tract of land at Cape May and will erect an Italian villa upon it from pians procured in Europe by his arch­ itect. It wil| be rea4»Jos occupancy early next season. v -w r" mmllM Typical Turkish 8oldier. upon those of the Greek notables. Ap­ proaching the houses, they ordered the inmates to come out, searched them, stripped them naked, took from them the money and jewels which the victims were trying to save, then put the women and children aside, select­ ing whoever among the former ap­ pealed to their brutish appetites. Any­ one who resisted was immediately killed. In this connection many ter­ rible Incidents occurred. A father, Nicholas Pouscas, was attempting to protect his daughter from violation, when he was killed by a blow from a hatchet. The earrings were forcibly torn out of the girl's ears, and her hr.nd was chopped off to enable the assailants to obtain the bracelets she wore. All the houses were pillaged, and the Turkish peasants loaded their horses with whatever the soldiers could not carry away.. The houses were then set on fire by means of petroleum. The sack of Krushevo lasted three days, during which the women and children remained without food, shel­ ter, or mercy on the part of the sol­ diers and Bashi-Bazouks. It was only on Saturday that the occupation of Krushevo was reported at Monastir. The Greek bishop of Krushevo, who was absent at Monastir, arrived at Krushevo on Saturday, and left again for Monastir on the Monday, having been unable to find any resting place. Over 100 Greeks were killed. The municipal doctor was murdered with a hatchet for protesting against the massacre. The Greek corpses have not yet been interred. Many of them have been gnawed by dogs and pigs, and the stench renders the district un- in nabitable. The Turkish authorities, Declaring an inquest to be necessary, refused permission to any of the sur­ vivors to leave the town. Three hun­ dred and sixty houses and 215 shops including all the finest houses of the Greek notables, were pillaged and burned. Thousands of people are ex­ posed^ to the inclemency of the weath­ er and famine. They are left to con­ template with despair the smoking ruins of the beautiful town which was built by the fruits of their in­ dustry. Artist's Easy Road to Fame. Walter Dandy Sadler, the eminent English artist, has trodden a pathway of roses throughout his professional career. He was only 18 when he ex­ hibited a painting at the Dudley gal­ lery, at 19 one of his productions was "hung" at Burlington house, and at 21 tia reputation was established. Ever since he has been able to command his own prices for his work. Willing to Be Taken for a Servant for a Consideration. Employers in various lines of busi­ ness who are out for tips are not easily insulted by chance or premedi­ tated remarks of the people from whom the tips necessarily come. One woman who has had her pocketbook drained and her soul tortured by the insidious but persistent demands of such attendants had that fact im­ pressed upon her early in the week. She was a visitor in an up-town man­ icure parlor. She had been there sev­ eral times before, and each time had courageously gone away without pay­ ing anything in excess of the regular taxation. On the occasion of her latest visit the girl who took charge of her hands adroitly introduced tipping as an appropriate subject for conversa­ tion. The woman availed herself of the opportunity to express her senti­ ments forcibly. "I think it strange," she said, "that self-respecting people who have a good position should so demean them­ selves as to accept contributions from strangers in that way. If the people for whom I work should offer to tip me every time I drew an extra breath I should feel insulted. I should imag­ ine that they considered me a mere servant." When the work was at last finished, the girl bra£ed back and looked at the woman stteadily. "I'm not so sensitive as some folks,** she said. '"I don't mind if people do consider me a servant" And the woman, carried away by sheer admiration for her audacity, gave her a quarter.--New York Times, THE BEGGAR'S FINAL APPEAL. Hardly of a Character to Bring Forth Charity. Archdeacon Sinclair of London Is considerably over six feet in height and broad in proportion. His inches, like his leaning toward the church, may be said to have come to him through heredity, for his father, Will­ iam Sinclair, was the fifth son of Sir John Sinclair, author of the "Statisti­ cal Account of Scotland," and was one of fifteen children, the shortest of whom was six feet in height, while the tallest reached six feet seven inches. When King George III. on one occasion was at Holyrood Sir John presented his six girls to the king as "thirty-six feet of daughters." The pavement outside his house in Edin­ burgh was made of very large flag­ stones from the family property in Caithness and was, as Mr. Gladstone told the archdeacon, always spoken of as "the Giant's Causeway." One day the tallest of the archdeacon's aunts was going along the street when she was pursued by an Irish beggar wom­ an, who Invoked blessings on her head In the hope of alms. Finding her blandishments in vain, the woman changed her tone and exclaimed: "At least ye might give me your shoe to make a cradle for my baby." A Winter's Night. ' Helffh-hol for a winter's nlgrht.

A little lad had climbed a very high spout attached to his parents house to get a nest which had been built by some birds. He was sue cessful, and was walking away with his companions when a gentleman who had watched his dangerous feat stopped him and said: "My little fellow, I am sorry to see you risk your life for such a paltry thing. What would have happened if the spout had given way?" "Oh," said the lad, "it wouldn't have mattered mueh. We're going to leave the house tomorrow." Alfonso Meets His 8ubjeeta.

A clever engineering feat was ac­ complished in connection with the ex< tension of the Paris "Tube." Between • o'clock in the morning and 3 o'clock in the afternoon a bridge 130 feet long, which spans the Seine at Passy, was moved a distance of nearly eighty feet. The preparatory work for this difficult operation took about ten weeks, and when everything w ready the huge mass was moved over wooden rollers by a windlass, worked by hand for safety. The operation waa completely successful. Obituary of Napoleon. When the great Napoleon died there were doubtless among the readers of the London Globe many persons who would have liked to read a full ac­ count of his life, but, if so, they were disappointed, for the Globe, in its is­ sue of July 4, 1821, contained only the following brief notice: "Death of Bonaparte. We announce the death of Bonaparte. The official announcement was received this morning at the Admiralty. His death took place on June 6. His health had been declining for a long time, and the cause of death was a cancer in the stomach. He was born in 1769. The cost of his maintenance at Saint Helena was each year between two and three hundred thousand pounds." Use Less Alcohol.
