EUROPE IS AMAZED. Rapidity of War In Balkans Cause Much Comment. London After a four-day' heavy battle, the Bulgarians are resting. The Bulgarian have not decided whether they will attempt to capture Adriannple by assault or to starve out its garrison by a siege. The full ex tent of the Turkish disaster at Kirk Kilisseh Is unknown here, but it is almost certain that the bulk of the garrison there effected a retreat be fore the town fell into the hands of the Bulgarians. The early capture of Kirk Kilisseh was a great surprise even to Bulgar ian staff officers and their allies and the swift progress of the war unex pected by hurope generally. It has been only nine dij s since Turkey de clared war and yet event have reached the point where possibility of nterventton by the power is being Ulked of.

Vramya, Servia An Incident of the battle which resulted in the capture of Kumanova by the Servians indi cntos the desperate character of the conflict. A company of Servian in fantry charged the Turk with the bayonet and the hand-to-hand struggle developed into individual combats in which many of the soldier dropped their rifles and drew knives, with which they hacked and slashed one another. It is reported that in the Turkish rank the words of command given by the officer were in German. Turka Pursued by Servian.

FARM AD GARDEN REPEATING TRAP KILLS RATS On Winding of Naw Device Will De stroy Fiftaen or More of Dlaaaas Spraadlng Rodents. Did you ever hear of s repeating rat trapT One haa been Invented by an II Hnoi man, who declarea that with one winding It will kill" 16 or more of the dlaense breeding pest and kick each one out of the way. The gen eral design of the trap I hown In the cut. When a rat stepa on the plat form In front his weight releases the trigger and striking arm. operated by a powerful spring, hits him a deadlv uppercut and throws him several feet Repeating Rat Trap. away with the same motion. It vir tually kick him to death. Another feature of thl trap Is the fact that no sceut Is left on It to warn any wUe old rodent that It la an apparatus to be avoided. A bait, of course, la set inside the opening, under the striking arm, and where rata are particularly numerous they will not be scared off by the sight of d?ad comrades In the vicinity. REPARINQ FOR SPRING WORK Farmars Should Have All Farm Imple- menta In Good Order to Be gin Work at Once. Have the plows, harrows, cultiva tors, drills and rollers In order for pring work. Lay In a few extra plow points and bolts. Have the harrow teeth sharp. Extra whlffietreea and some good hame strings should be provided. The seed oats, corn, clover and grass seeds should be bought this month, so bo time Deed be lost when the season opens, says a writer In the Baltimore American. Buy and haul the fertilizer you need now. If the plow or harrow Is worn out, it will pay to buy a good steel plow and a spring tooth harrow and a two-horse cultiva tor. A corn planter and a grain drill may be hired for 25 cents an acre. If you only plant ten acres In corn and seed a few acres to oata It will be cheaper to hire than to buy these Im plements. Only buy those implement ou really need. Farm sales take place this month, and good Implement m" often be had at lees than half the or inal price. It will pay to buy If y need the Implement, but do not b it because It is cheap, nor because y can buy It on time. The note so falls due and It often comes due wb you are short of funds. Do not a your neighbor to go security. If t bank will not accept the note wl your wife as lndorser, do not bi This Is sound advice and if follow will save you lots of trouble and c slderable money. Do not go secur for anyone. It Is wrong, as you m ruin yourself, and oftentimes yc family as well. A good-natured, ea going farmer had better remain aw from farm sales. FIT VEGETABLES FOR MARK!

QUALITIES OF LITTLfc QUAIL Food Consists Largely of 8ds Noxious or Troublesome Plant Eat Seal. cf (Dy P. E. U DEAL.) The natural food of the quail con slut of the seed of the vaat number of plant known a weed, with a little foliage of the aame, especially In winter, when the leavea are young and tender. Considering how imall la the amount of fruit usually found In the stomach of this bird. It 1 a surprise to learn that It sometime doe serl ou damage to vineyards, luvestiga .Ion, however, show that, a in most other similar cases, the Injury results only when too many birds gather In a limited area. Nearly all the complain against the quail for eating fruit are that It visits vineyards In immense numbers and eats grapes. When thousands vialt a vineyard, even If only occasion ally, and each bird eats or spoils at least one grape, the result Is disas trous. In the laboratory Investigation of the food of these quail 619 stomachs were examined. Animal food, princi pally insects, amounted to 3 per cent of the food, and 97 per cent, vegetable food. This latter consists of seeds of plants, most of which are of noxious or troublesome species. Ants appear to be a favorite animal food, but the quail will eat caterpil lars, beetles, grasshoppers, flies, spiders, snails and scale Insects. In this connection the following ex tract from a letter from Dr. W. O. Chambers of Los Angeles la Interest ing: "Last May during the batching sea son one of my female quail died a week prior to completing the batch.

The use of a tile under four Inches In diameter Is not to be recommended. There Is little practical benefit re sulting from the use of a mulch with wheat Spraying of potatoes with Bordeaux mixture is a preventive of potato blight.

You cannot keep your farm per manently productive without the use of legume. Don't put In the alfalfa seed too deep; and remember to roll It well after sowing. A barnyard full of manure never produced a big corn crop until It was spread on the field. Tobacco uses up a large amount of plant food and for that reason should be heavily fertilised. Iroquois Too Much for the Court Interpreter NEW YORK. Procedlngs In the Jef ferson Market police court were brought to a standstill the other day. and Interpreter Llchtensteln wa forced to admit that be had met his Waterloo after many victories In un tangling strange tongue when two women member of the Iroquois tribe of Indiana appeared before Magistrate Herbert, one charging the other with felonious assault, the weapon being a can of tomatoes. Mr. Cecilia Hyde, 45 year old, of 626 Broome street, whose Indian name la Kaluwalon, charged Mrs. Ida Domi nick, 30 years old. who Is known to her tribe as Kalukwas. with assault after a dispute In the Broome street house in which they both live. When the case was called and Police man Carone of the Macdougal Street station house arraigned Kalukwas, and motioned Kaluwalon to approach the bench, It was learned that, although bearing English names, neither com plainant nor defendant spoke English. Court Interpreter Llchtensteln was called, but after a short struggle with the Iroquois guttural begged to be excused. "You are the Interpreter of this court, are you not?" said the magis trate. "Ye, your honor." "Then interpret" "I cannot" "WhyT" "Because I am not an Indian," re plied Interprter Llchtensteln. "Well, what are we going to do?" the magistrate ald. "I muat bear thl caae." Chief Clerk George P.

Clerk Rlchter recognized the Indian, and he was admitted with in the inclosure. Magistrate Herbert talked with him for a few moments, and learned that he was a graduate of the Carlisle In dian school, and that he had brought his family and other member of hie tribe to the city to see the sight. Dominlck told the court that he would get a woman missionary from the Iro quois to interpret, and he produced Mr. Catherine Watson of 47 King street. Mrs. Hyde testified that Mr. Domi nlck beat her over the head with a can of tomatoes, cutting open her fore head and splitting her scalp in the back. Mrs. Hyde's eye were wollen and discolored. She aald that the trou ble arose over "false accusations." Mrs. Dominlck admitted the charge, but said that she had Just cause. The case was finally dismissed, the Indiana promising to bury the hatchet He Was Not Crazy; He Did Not Go Home HOUSTON, TEX. "I had rather go to Jail than to go home with my wife" were the words of a middle-aged man who in company with his wife called at the office of Night Chief of Police Heck a few nights ago. The man and woman faced the chief to gether and the man spoke first hi words bringing tears to the eyes of hi better half. "My wife baa been hounding me around the street for the past two hour," said the husband, "and ha been trying to get me to go home again. A night In Jail would be pleas ant compared with the misery of spending the night with my wife." Chief Heck, in an effort to obtain the fact in the case, questioned the couple and although the man was ob stinate and harsh toward his wife, she wept copiously and begged "Joe" to go home with her. Her pleading waa in vain, for the husband seemed to be determined In his purpose to spend the night in Jail. Chief Heck told him there had been no crime committed and that there wa no Just cause to lock him up, but the husband protested and even begged to be placed behind the bars. The case became serious after the couple had been in the office for about an hour. iDRuTtlffU anno flY TIME in JAIL THAW CO HOME WITH HE . "We can't lock you up." said Chief Heck, "because you have done nothing to be punished for. You are not crazy, are you?" he asked. "No, I am not crazy," replied the husband. "If I wa I would go on home with my wife." The couple entered the office short ly after 9 o'clock and all effort on the part of Chief Heck to pacify the hue band proved unsuccessful. The hour slipped by and before either the man or woman realized It midnight was near. Both were sleepy, the man was nodding in hi chair. Chief Heck waa called away from his office on an urgent call and when, he returned both sat in their chair sound asleep. He roused them, gave them a warning to agree and be happy and the husband and wife walked away arm In arm. 1 "Willie Buck" Stirs Up a Big Police Station CHICAGO "Willie Buck.vagrancy." was the way it waa written the other night on the arrest-book at the Maxwell street police station. Two bondsmen Interested them selves in the prisoner, and a restaurant-keener brought him food, and all of them, after closer acquaintance, agreed that ho did "buck" "Willie Puck" is known to residents in the vicinity of Fourteenth street and Union avenue as the neighborhood goat On this particular night he be came unusually strenuous and was "ar rested" by Detective George Cregg aft er he had chased several women and children and caused considerable ex citement Cregg tied the goat' leg with a rope after everal men had assisted in the capture. The goat was put In the patrol wag on and taken to the police station, where it was locked up In a cell. Desk Sergeant Kelliher entered in the arrest-book the name "Willie Buck," and opposite that the charge "vagTancy." Manny Abrams, a bondsman, went to interview "Willie Buck" after read ing the name on the book. Meantime the Jailer had unlocked the cell door, and when the goat caught sight of Abrams peeling through the darkened cell there waa a sudden rush, and the bondsman lay on the floor, gasping for breath. William Brett, another bondsman, received the same treatment when he went to the cell to discuss a possible bond. Max Goldman, proprietor of a res taurant near the police station, pre pared a big steak and "trimmings" when informed by telephone that "Wil lie Buck" wanted something to eat Ten seconds after he entered the cell aisle Goldman was on the floor, the hot steak reposing on hie neck, and broken dishes were scattered la several directions. The goat had suc cessfully defended Itself against in terruption for the night and crawled Into a corner and went to sleep. Unusual Vocabulary of an Indianapolis Parrot IIXDIAS'ArOLIS, 1ND. Pclly ia a beautifully marked King parrot, the property of Fran'.; Hoffmnn, who conducts a downtown cafe, and among those who have heard the bird talk, it Is easy to find some who will back her as the champion ornithological chatterbox of the city. Hoffman has rooms above his cafe which he rents to men and Polly has enriched her vocabulary as a result One of the roomers recently was employed by a local automobile fac tory as a test car driver and one of his characteristics was his proneness to sleep late every morning. Doily one of hia working companions stopped at the cafe to waken him and Polly Is frequently heard, early In the morning, going over the wakening con versation. She repeats the words of the caller and the sleepy responses of the belated one In bed, accompa nied by the groans that only a sleepy man early In the morning can make, the gradually Increasing clear ness of tho responsrs, and the final yawn and Assurance that the sleeper has been fully awakened and Is on his Unofficial Notice.
