On that date Bodkin and Keane will take active charge of the Evanston theater and this show house will be turned into a Hippodrome. Motion pictures will not be entirely erased from the bill: They will be used to introduce and close each per* formance. The bulk of the programs will consist of hippodrome acts of the loop district class. Three Shows Dally. There will be three shows dailj. The afternoon program will commence at three o'clock and continue until six. This is in order to accommodate the school children and the students. In fact, acts that will please the chil- dren as well as the grown-ups will be presented dally.

There wih be a complete change of program on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and the management will in- spect every act before it-Is'shown, so that nothing but the very best will get across the footlights. They further plan to make Saturday an especially attractive day for children, with a dog and pony shew feature, or some ani- mal comedy. Messrs. Bodkin and Keane feel that they know what the people of Evanston want in the way of entertainment, bo they propose to gt>e bills that will be entertaining, with never a note to Jar the most re- fined. The uew management has kept very tio;,e tab on the desires of the thea- ter going people of Evanston and the North Shore for the past two.years, and a checking up of numerous re- quests and suggestions has brought about the making of the Evanston into a Hippodrome. Messrs. Bodkin and K<-ane have had a great deal of ex- perience in conducting very success- ful amusement enterprises, and they feei that they know something of what the North Shore people want.

The history of the Bulgarian nation has been that-of one mcculty after another until the BuTgars have be come inured to trouble, and at tbelr best whin confronted by such crises as that which now seems to lie be- fore them. Their whole life as a peo- ple has been a continuous succession of struggles against overwhelming odds, struggles In which they have <jera and saying, suffered bitterest misery and hardship tup to then, not a word had ban oken. I let him finish and then po- ely requested-him, as I was not si Serb and consequently did not under- stand his lingo, to translate It Into a civilized language, preferably German or French. He seemed somewhat startled and gave ma to understand that he was led to believe I waa a Serb. I used soma very forcible Ger- man and French, both of which ha waa able to understand, pointing' out to him that Some one, somewhere, bad made a thundering big blunder, which somehow would have to.be paid for. He was clearly ill at ease, but said, have to obey my instructions." ';' 1 and in which they have never failed to show a sublime steadfastness and endurance, according to a study of this youngest of kingdoms prepared for the National Geographic society by James D. Bourchier. Under the Yoke. Bulgaria, probably more than any other Balkan land, this writer says, has felt the weight of Turkish mis- rule and. oppression. It lies in the central part of the Balkan peninsula, near to the reach of the great Turkish military centers of former days, Adrianople ' and Constantinople, and embraces a rich agricultural country from which the Ottoman overlords have drawn heavy returns. Due to this value of its soils and to its handy position, Bulgaria has been held more firmly under the yoke of the Turk than any other Christian nation in this ill-fated territory. The Bulgarians were the last to re- cover from the Turkish oblivion into which they had been sunk for hun- dreds of years by their Asiatic con- querors, Mr. Bourchier continues, and in their efforts to find political free- dom and anion for their race, they have found themselves not only con- fronted by the power of Islam, but with the hostility or all surrounding sister nations. During the years of their writhlhgs nnder the Turkish heel the Greeks added religious oppression and economic oppressions to the ef- forts of the Turks. Russia has re- peatedly loomed threatening on their horizon, while Roumania and Serviaâ€" both earlier free of the Islamic domi- nationâ€"have added to the persistent little nation's troubles. A Race of Heroes. Out of their centuries of suffering and dogged efforts the Bulgarians have developed a fine determination, a. heroic love of race and country Which shows no limit of Individual sacrifice in its behalf. They have an exceedingly unimportant thing it was. During those five months I was kept sat a steady grind of schooling in subjects -that were essential to effi- cient secret service work. 'Broadly, they could be divided Into four classesâ€"topography, trigonome- try, naval construction and drawing. My tutors were all experts in the imperial service. A secret service agent sent Ottt to investigate and report on the condition, situation, and armament of a fort like Verdun in France must be able to make correct estimates of dis- tances, height, angles, conditions of toe groftnd, etc. This can only be done by a man of the correct scientific had told him of my message to the training. He must have the science of minister of war, and, although it waa quite obvious that I waa sparring for time, he seemed in no way inclined to rush the execution. Five minutes went; ten minutes went, and, looking at his watch, which showed five min- utes to eight (although it was fast getting dusk I could see that watch dial distinctly), shrugging his shoul- I can delay ho longer," he called a sergeant, who placed me with my shoulders to the wall and offered me a handkerchief. I didn't want a handkerchief. A few sharp orders and twelve Mauser tubes pointed their ugly black snouts di- rectly at me. I hate to tell my sensations just then. Frankly, I felt nothing clearly. The only thing I remember distinctly was that the third man in the second file held his gun in rather a slipshod manner, aiming It first at my midriff, next pointing it at my noseâ€"which, strangely enough, caused me intense annoyance. How long we stood thus I don't know. The nest thing I re- member was a rattle of grounding anas and the sight of two other offi- cers, excitedly gesticulating with the one in charge of the firing squad. All three presently came towards me and one, pulling cut a flask of cognac, with a polite bow offered me a drink. I needed it, but didn't take it. All this time I had been standing motionless with my arms folded across my breast. I heard one say to the other, "Nltchka curacha" (no coward). If he had only topography at his finger tips; be must be able to make quick and accurate calculations, using trigonometry, as wall as possessing skill as a drafts- man. In a mission to Fort Arthur (be- fore the Russian-Japanese war), where I had to report on the defenses, I found this training invaluable. The same applies to the subject of naval construction. Before entering the German secret service. I certain- ly knew the difference between a tor- pedo and a torpedo boat destroyer, but naturally could not give an ac- curate description of the various types of destroyers and torpedoes. My in- structor in this subject was Lieut. Capt. Kurt Steffens. torpedo expert of the intelligence department of the im- perial navy. After a month of tutelage under him, t was able to tell the vari- ous types of torpedoes, submarines, and mines, etc., in use by the principal powers. I could even tell by the pe- culiar whistle It made whether the; torpedo that was being discharged; waa a Whitehead or a.Brennan.________ (To be continued.) i ' . ' i â-  • £>auy Thought.

The Rules of the Service. I did not enter the service out of pure adventure or for monetary rea- sons alone. Money has never appealed to me as the all-powerful thing in life. I have alwaya had enough' for creature comforts, and as for adventure I bad had my fill during the Boer war and my world wanderings. No, I joined thojGcrman secret service for quite a different reason. I was thinking tenacity, they have shrewdness, and i of the influences that had pressed me they have a familiarity with desperate j out of my destined groove, by every situations, which, if it has not bred contempt, at least has bred a courage for whatever trouble fate may nave in store. It was not until 1885 that eastern Roumalia revolted from Turkish rule and united with northern Bulgaria, and it waS not until October, 1968, that Prince „ Ferdinand proclaimed Bulgaria an independent kingdom. Thirty years passed after the Bul- garian war for independence before tceir freedom was officially recog- nized in Europe. Virile, laborious, thrifty, persevering, courageous, and anxious foT progress, the Bulgarians are daamg to dream great dreams for their little country, and, today, as ever, their immediate future seems to be beset by all manner of difficulties. ~~ever presented to an Evanston public.

A marvelous encyclopedia of devious secret service facts, an ideal tutor. When we were alone in his office, Von Stammer began by saying abrupt- "From now on, you must be entirely and absolutely at our service. You will report dally at twelve noon by, telephoning a certain number. At all times you must be accessible. You will pay close attention to the following rules: • "Absolute silence in regard to your missions.
