War Between Bulgaria and

IT IS THE ONLY SOLUTION
To Macedonian Problem-Confidence
in Turkish Prom

PERFECT TRANQUILITY NOW

EVIDENCE THAT COUNTRY IS

TIONS ARE STILL GOING ON.
SOFIA, Sept. 24. Notwithstanding
the reports to the contrary, perfect
4
transqullity prevails throughout "Bul
garia. There is not the slightest put
ward evidence that the country is on
the verge of war. Even In military
circles there is no excitement, though
the unceasing preparation is going on.
The reports emanating from the
Turkish quarter that Bulgaria Is like
ly to take the first hostile steps may
be regarded as ridiculous Invevntlons.
However, the fact that all hope of good
results from the Turkish promises of
reform has long disappeared and the
feeling is growing that war is the sole
solution to the Macedonian problem,
the only question being whether it will
come this autumn , or be postponed un

Lamsdorf to Vienna, are especially
significant.' . .

ROBBER WANTS TO DIE.
PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 24. Up to a
iate hour tonight the bandits who held
up the Atlantic express at Corbett had
not been caught and, there la little to
indicate they will be. Th 'posse today
searched Iri every direction for ' five
miles without result. The only clue
of the. day was tracks on a deserted
trail which ended at a cliff,
i The residents of Corbett and Trout
dale say suspicious characters have
been lurking around there for several
days and officers think from this the
gang had been waiting as much as a
week for an opportune moment for a
raid. . " i : f

this morning in . the patrol wagon In

He was apparently in an almost 'tin
conscious state and murmured con
stantly about wanting to die in peace.
He Was placed cn & couch In one of
the cells of the Jail, where Dr. Geary
fresed the-wound in his head.
; MOh, Lord, let me die in peace I " the
wounded robber murmured whenever
asked to tell something of the affair,
s.nd this was repeated over and over.
While being; takes to the Hospital In
the .patrol t wagon he begged Deputy
Sheriff Bidweil, who had charge of him,
to kill him. The rough ride caused
him great pain, and may have had
something, to, do with the .blood pres
sure on the brain. '

Danny's parents were absent at the
time of the fire, which occurred at
about 9 o'clock. The heat and smoke
awoke him, and in his night clothes he
began carrying the younger children
out. With one In each arm he walked
through the burning building, and re
turned to save the tiny baby. The
flames had gathered strong headway,
and the young hero lost his bearings
in the smoke. Burning walls faced
him on all sides. '- Finally he made a
desperate break through the flames,

NEW GRADE FOR WHEAT
WEIGHT , OF CHOICE MILLING IN
WASHINGTON LOWERED TO
'.. 60 POUNDS.
TACOMA, Wn, Sept- 24. The State
Grain Commission held "an adjourned
session today, and before final adjourn
ment decided to change the grade on
choice milling wheat, the weight of
which has heretofore bs. pounds,
to sixty. '
The most Important question that
came before the commission was. tha
proposition to have the state grain in
spectors do all the docking of foul
wheat. The commissioners finally de
cided to take the matter under advise
ment for the present, while the differ
ent systems ar being tried. The min
utes of the commission regarding this
matter read as follows:
"Having been asked to adopt and
enforce, as a part of Its Inspection a
system of dockage, finding.' on all wheat
more foul than the state standards,
that question, at this meeting being
further discussed by the commission,
they unanimously voted that a deck
age system could not at once be under
taken by the state Inspectors, because
of the lack of knowledge of machinery
used In measuring dockage; and the
uncertainty of such machinery now In
use in 'other: states being efficient in
handling,-. Of , Washington wheat with
Its foreign 'matter,, consisting- of wild
;oats. cockle, etc It was therefore re
' solved by the commission that the chief
; lnsjector proceed at one to obtain
such machinery as is In use in other
states for determining .. dockage and
eperlment with this machinery on
Washington foul wheat as It Is arriv
ing; and thereafter that this commis
sion will take definite action on this
proposition. of state dockage.

BIRDS KILLED
BY HUNDREDS
t.
Hunters of Linn County Not
Waiting far Season to
!! i : Open ;
GAME WARDENS POWERLESS TO
COPE WITH THE SITUATION.
ALTHOUGH MAKING FEEBLE
ATTEMPTS THE PRESENT LAW
IS REGARDED AS A FARCE.
ALBANY, Or, Sept. 24. Hundred"
ot China pheasants have been killed
in Linn county; during the 'past; two
months contrary ti law. The law pro
vides that these unexcelled game birds
may be killed only between October '1
and December 1 of each year, but they
have been hunted more or less general-
-
ly in this county all summer.
Although deputy game wardens are
now' searching for illegal, hunters, it
will probably be very hard to Btop the
practice. Even If arrests are made for
alleged violations of the game law it
will be difficult to convict, as a lead
ing Albany attorney yesterday ex
pressed the opinion that it would be
a hard matter to secure a. conviction
of any one arrested for illegal hunting
under the. reading -of the present law
if the case were contested.
In actional 4, on page 222, of the Ses
sion La wsj of 1901. and In section 2020
of Bellinger and Cotton's Code, the law
makes it a crime to hunt, pursue, take,
kill, injure, destroy or have In posses
sion 'except for scientific or breeding
purposes' ; any prairie chicken, grouse,
native; pheasant (sometimes called ruf
fled grouse), ring-neck or China tor
quatus pheasant at any time between
the first day of December of each year
and the first day of October of the fol
lowing fe$r '
In, section 14; on page 222, of the Ses
sion Laws of. 1901. and In section 2045
of Bellinger and Cotton's Code, the law
states that It shall be unlawful, at any
time whejn it Is unlawful to take or
kill the same, to have In possession any
of the wild animals or fowls enumer
ated in ihe act (Including the China
torquatua pheasant) unless the name
b. kept "as a household pet, or for sci
entific or jbreedlng purposes, or for pur
poses of Exhibition In parks or in pub
lic museums.
. To quota, tha attorney who expressed
the opinion that Jt would, be a difficult,
task to convict any one of violating
the game law, Tt would be easy for
any one i charged, with having killed a
China pheasant Mr having had one in
his possession unlawfully to state that
be. had j captured It for scientific or
Breeding) purposes or for ' any other
purpose which the law permits. As the
burden of proving that the man under
arrest had the bird or birds in his pos
session for another purpose than that
which he alleges rests with the state,
it would be' a most difficult matter tot
secure af conviction. This makes the
present fcame law practically Inoperative.-

FARMING WITH ELECTRICITY.
r
In the application of electricity t
every day work Germany ''has. p r
haps. gone farther than any , other r.x
tlbn. Electrically heated and operiit
ed cooking and laundry apparatus 1
in common use theTe, but. the' most
striking single development is th--
olectrioal farm. Take, for example,
Prof. Backhaus estate near Quednau.
in Eastern Irussla, which is onl' on-i
of a large number of German estates
run by electricity. ...
The Quednu! farm coveTS 450 acre?,
and It dally handles 1,000 gallons of
milk. Every part of this farm Is light
ed by electricity, and is in telephone
connection with every other part. Tha
dairy haa an electrical churn; th
barn contains electrically operated
feed and carrot cutting machines, and
even the grindstone is turned by a
email belt from the shaft connected
with the - bam motor. The water
pumping apparatus Is' run by electric
ity; all the buildings, are lighted ty
incandescent lamps, and there Is an
electrical pipe lighter at the doors cf
all the houses. This farm has also its
own threshing and grist mill, the ma
chinery of which is turned by a c sr
rnt from the miniatur contr il " Mo
tion, and finally there is a EauH m
mill which gets its power, from t!
same stajlon. On the farm :trt :;
kinds of eltrical agricultural rr i
chlnes. Including an automobil--' j: , .
all run by batteries charged from r -stations
in the- n!fl".
The power for all th' s va.rioM t i--atlons
lighting, heating; telep'-.onc ,
churning, cutting, grinding, puni;lr. .
threshing 'and sawing comes from a
EO-horse power stationary nr h
moving two dynamos. From this pta
tlon the power is distributed to t' -parts
of th farm snd the swltchboar I
is so plainly marked that the cor -monest
farm hand can r gulate t:
supply to fit the need. At Crottorf
number of small farms have grou;---to
support one station, and have tt, -work
done by 1L
- Such plants as th'se do more t!.
merely lighten farm labor fen -workmen
are needed and grat r i r -fits',
are possible, and the whole t - -ness
of farming Is mad"1 mor attr -tlve.
The barn yard Is lighted by
arc lamp; night work In the fi l s
possible when It Is neessary;
stabks are warmed In winter and v -tllated
In summer by .the. turning r "
switch; Indeed, the entire farm r
Ilka a machine at the call of the c;
trie ctarentWorld's Work.
