(By mall.) When No. 25 Polk street rattled down in the San Francisco earthquake, ,-e newspaper plant- ol Sioboda was dostroyed and Valdlmir Mldzor, tne editor, was penuk-s;i.

His talk, which I have!other q"eer BaIkan. DePle heard this evening In a little cafe, is full' of information of an out of the way sort. "I'm school teacner now," he said, "in a little country school. I get ?20 a month and have to pay my boaru. Hut school hasn't been going anywhere In Servla for more than a year. The money was needed for ''nr. I had 55 pupils and 1 used to teach them reading, writing, arith metic and Servian story." "What did you teach tho girlB?" "There weren't any girls. Servian cuumry ioiks tninK girls will go wrong if they are taught too much, so they keep them home. Our school hours were different from those In San Francisco. Wo began school at nine o'clock in the morning and clos ed at noon. We opened it again at throe and closed at five. We-had sessions six -ays a week, but the children were free on Saturdny aft ernoons. Isn't i.s war terrible? I remember how the children used to come across tue Holds and down the roads wltn tnelr school books and dinner baskets, nut in all Servia to day there aren't any children with school books and the schools are Bleeping places for soldiers, " t here must be many orphans in Servla."

"Wasn't It a Serb who started this war by shooting the Crown Prince of '-Ma? "Yes, it was; Gabrlolle Prlnzlp. His father Is a rich commission mer chant .u Herzegovina and Gabrlelle 1 bright young student. Mo did not know that the shot he fired that day would sart a world war. Ho was oo young to bo exocutod and he's Is In an Austrian jail somewhere. I'll bet though he doesn't know what trouble his shot caused. The Aus- trlans would keep It away from him. My nephew went to school with Gabrlelle and know him well. Ho yas a fine, Intelligent ypung follow ind he knew, as all the Intelligent -oiinc S-rbs know, thnt the r.

Tne crown prince of didn't have a single chance for his life that Sunilav In Sarajevo. Ho was n dead man as Boon as he en I tered the town. If one of tho con spirators missed him another was bound to get him. It Just happened that the royal automobile came Gab- rlollo's way." "Hut Servln Is Invaded anyhow, Isn't It?" I asked. "Yes," sadly, "but not by the crown prince of Austria. Besides, we have Englnnd. France and Russia on our side."
