Bulgarian Foreign Office has re ceived very disquieting news from its agent at Uskub. The MubbuI ' mana there are daily gathering in the mosques and it is feared that a massacre of the Christians is im pending. Officials here express the belief that the intervention of Jhe . powers alone can prevents disaster, : y the situation here is the remarkable . quietude with which the people . have received the news of the fresh ; i rioting in Macedonia. The whole outbreak came as a ereat snrDrise. even to the local revolutionary com mittees, which were not prepared for so early a rising. In spite of the stirring appeals of the committees, little or no popular eothuaiam is apparent, not even among the 20,' 000 Macedonian residents of Sofia. " "KHow .long this condition will last depends largely upon tne develop ments in Macedonia. At present the center of the disturbances is Mooastir, a long way off. Should the rising spread to the villaye of Uskub and come to the Bulgarian frontier, it is probable that the opulation of Bulgaria wi become aroused. No New from Man-Hunters. . . Sacramento, Aug. 12.

CTasusltwaaa aml Araaale. In Styria and Carinthla there Is much arsenic eating among the peasants. Th women take It to give themselves a good complexion and to make their hair fine and frloeay. The men take It be cause they believe that It gives them wind in climbing In the chase after chamois. There Is nothing of this tort In Cornwall and Devon. In Styria and Carinthla It la known that an arsenic eater can never be bro ken of the habit and that If arsenic be compulsortly kept from the eater death rapidly ensues. It Is believed In the Tama r and this it perhaps true that aa arseotc worker is fit for no other work. Be must remain at this occupa tion. Health and breath fall htm at other employmsnts. Eventually It may be that chronic arsenical poisoning en sues. But this may be staved off. If not wholly prevented, by scrupulous clean liness, by care taken not only to wash In the "changing house," but to bathe freely at home. As one of the foremen said to the writer, "Against arsenic the best antidote is soap taken externally.'' Chambers' Journal. Pvrelr For Ornament. The trained nurse has to meet many curious conditions which arise among her poorer patients. One of these faith ful women who had a sick girl in charge in a miserable tenement house noticed that the oranges which had been provided for the fever patient were not eaten. They were placed In an old cracked blue bowl on a little ta ble by the sick girl's bed, and there they remained untouched. "Mary," sold the nurse one day, "don't you like oranges?" "Oh, yea'm," answered the girl. 'Ton haven't eaten any of these," the nurse suggested. ' Mary's mother answered. "Oh, miss," the said eagerly, "Mary, she e't a half, an' me an' Jimmy, we e't the other half, an' Mary an' me, we says we won't eat any more 'cause It looks so nice an' wealthy to have oranges settin' round." Youth's Companion. Posterity or Draakavda. A professor - of Bonn university in tra.'ir.g the posterity of habitual drunk ards has found 834 descendants from a woman who for forty years was "a thief, a drunkard aud a ramp" and .whose miserable life came to an end in the last year of the eighteenth century.
