Macedonians Say It Is a Last Re- sort--Sultan Must Choose Be- tween Peril And Autonomy-- Snerated On While. Hypnotis- London, June 6.--A dispatch to the Daily News from Sofia, reiterates the story published &« few days ago by the "News," that the Macedonian re Jelutionary leaders threaten to use ndian plague bacilli to cause an out: break of that disease if their demands are not conceded. The inception of this pln is due to Boris Sarafof, the notorious Magedonian. leader. The correspondent. says that the threat will certainly be carried out within a few days after the rebel chiefs issue a final warning. The Sopsiska Vedomos- 4, 'a. newspaper published in Sofia; which supports the Macedonian cause, saws. that a supply of bubonic bacilli, sufficient to spread death and panic in . Constantinople, lonica, and many other places, has been in readi- ness for a long time. The paper frank: ly admits that it cannot answer the question of how the Macedonians, who fight for freedom and civilization, can reconcile the scheme of spreading - the plague with the feelings of common humanity, and says: "We can only say that the new. plan is the last re- source of 'the Macedonians. It is the expedient of despair, In despair, ex- treme measures, even if the conse- quences be anarchy, are natural. The sultan still has time to choose be- tween the last peril and autonomy." * The. Daily Express rolates what it tescribes as the first instance in Eng- land of hypnotic suggestion taking the place of an anaesthetic in a seri- ous surgical operation. A' woman thirty-eight vears old was suffering from a severely ulcerated leg, and it was. decided that her life could be saved only hy the amputation of the limb. She desired to be hypnotized for the = operation. dreading the wse of chloroform, which, it was believed, would have been dangeroys in her case. = Experimental tests 'on several successive days having proved satis. factory, the operation was performed on Wednesday. While it was in pro- gress the patient chatted with the nurse and drank wine, and to an or- dinary observer appeared to be con- scious the whole time. Nevertheless, L the operation was painless, and she was unaware of what was passing, The operation was successful in every way. INCIDENTS OF THE DAY.

The St. Cathavines, Lawn Bowling club. is making extensive preparations for. its first. annual tournament on June 24th. and following days. Twenty-four balls were used in a recent baseball match between the Athletics and. Washingtons, at Phila. delphia. When a ball strikes in either of the bleachers. it is never returned, The Ottawa Rowing clyb will send a four, a; double. and a; . single the Canadian. .

'The cost of transporting shells is high; and unless. a rebate on the regu lar rate can be obtained, the club will be compelled to keep its would-be champions at home. The prenioters of the proposed tuck club in Ottawa, have been meeting with success in obtaining subscriptions of stock from Ottawa gentlemen, and ate now seeking to obtain the support of prominent supporters of the tracks in other cities. Without the assistance of western hgrsemen the project is likely to fall through: There is txoyible in the Quebec pro vincial 'baseball longue. The majority of the clubs ave not satisfied with their receipts. It is claimed that the Mas, cotte club, with all its advantages of a fine ground and being right in Mon- treal, is the only ome that makes money, and that the other clubs are unable to exist. on their own earning without. assistance. A new percentage plan is to be adopted if the league 1s to continue to exist. Where are the sepior lacrosse teams now playing in Montreal to be recruit ed from ? asks the Herald, That is the question the lovers of the national game must. face. and. must answer quickly, if lacrosse is not to die away in this city.

Hayden and Castro of the Rochester huseball club were offered to the Bal tanore club for $1,500. It appears the Rochester . magnates intend to wreck their team hefore transferring the franchise to Montreal. The people of (ntario and Montreal will heave a sigh of relief when. the name Albert, Dade. disa from the newsuapers. For - the past two months, he has been more prominent in news circles than any other man in Canada. Dade is a lacrosse player, one of the roving kind, and his movements have been daily noted, and conjectures made as to where he will play. Now he has gone to Brantford, lf he could only be induced i to take a trip to Belleville, his rovings would he over, and we would gladly help to write a few things upon his tombstone. Montreal Witness: The Quebec Rug- by Football Union is threatened. It may. surprise lovers of the pame in this city to learn that there is a: pos- sibility in the near future of. the. dif- ferent local clubs withdrawing from the union in order to form a new as- sociation in favor of English rugby rules. Tt is a well known fact, among rugby football men, espetially those resident ih Montreal and. district, that there is a growing feeling of irritatidn against the Canadian rules, as played in the Quebec union, and it is this fact that kas led up to the clubs discuss- ine their withdrawal from the foot- 11 arena, in favor of the English The Toronto Telegram is weeping tears of lemon juice over the decline of sport in Kingston. It certainly must be admitted that there has a wet been no activity here in summer. sports. However, it is not Kingston's fault that. no baseball league was formed. The distance within a radius of fifty wiles is responsible for that. The proposed association football and intermediate lacrosse leagues: for this district are still in abeyance, while the summer's vacht races do not be gin for another week.

With the exception of the , the raven an owl or two, the long-tailed titmouse, or 1 believe, these lit creatures and their haunts, it is easy to find a nest 'or two. before the leat is out. A sure sign that there is a nest at hand is vociferousness. Such fuss and chat- tically pendent, It rests on no stable basis, simply kept in place when the: wind rolighly rocks the bough to and . fro by the perfectly skillful way in which the birds have attached it to the drooping fir twigs. It is glued, as it. were to these twigs here and there all round, at the top, the bot- tom, and the sides. Unfortunately I was not able to get near enough to watch the birds at- taching this nest to the twigs. But I was lucky in seeing a goqg deal of the way in which the pest in the whitethorn bush at the edge of the coppice was built. And first let me say that the nests of all the long-tailed titmice I can recollect at this moment have always had entrances facing seuth or south- west or west--but I think a Souther ly aspect is much more common than a ey. 1 cannot recall finding a nest facing morth or , though I do not want for a moment to lay down a general rule and ' say that these birds mever build nests facing either of those quarters. Bird Sharers of Laber. The whitethorn nest, when firs I noticed it, was about a quarter built, and it closely resembled a chaffinch's in position, material, and shape. A bird-nesting boy with me said ""Chaffinch.'" But I felt sure it was a titmouse's, and lying fat down, about three yards off, I watch- ed and waited. Presently the tits arrived, sure enough, One had its beak full of lichens, It chattered all the while, saw me, and flew a little way off. The other did likewise. I waited quite still, and presently was rewarded. One of the birds, the hen, I believe, flew into the bush and entered the nest. At first its movements within the nest seemed to me delicate and gin- gerly, as if much action would do harm to the structure. But upom the next visit of the bird I noticed ia display of considerable vigor, The little creature rummaged about in the nest, tail (which was pushed up» ward, of course), body 'and head alll going hard, ! While the beak built up the sides, the body, unless I am very much mistaken, was all the while moldi and pressing the inside of the v It was curious to motice the way in which the builder worked its Way round and round the mest, touching up now one side, now another. Once, to my joy, I saw it drag '& scrap of material off the edge of one side of the nest and place this elsewhere. As a result of this me- thod of building, the sides grow mp quite lévell I was so delightfully near that I could see the tiny bemk pushing and weaving and pressing the building materials together with intense energy Both birds built. The cock lomg- tailed titmouse does not merely -at- tend the hen and encourage her, as the cock linnet or the cock thrpe- creeper does. He works with a will himself. Is it becausp the nest is such a long and difficult undertalcing that he shares the labois, or is the long and difficult pest the reswit merely of this energy on the part of both hen. and cock? A minute inventory of the nest, so far as it had gone, showed that tho following materials were in use: Moist moss, small tree lichens, flat tish, green-gray on the upper. and dark, boot-leather brown on the un- der side; silk from the cocoons of some imsects, cobwebs, one Heather (worked into the side; the gred!t ass of feathers used for lining aie not laid in-till the pest has been domed over), some tiny strips of tiiinnest birch bark; some very fine dried grasses.

Hence the Chancellor of the | Exchequer, in making bis annual statement, was formerly ssid to op- en his budget.
