bulletin regarding n recent and somewhat
Important discovery made by l'rof. Her
rlne, an. attache ot tnn observatory on
Mount Hamilton,- In referenco to tho new
star Jn tho constellation Perseus. This star
appeared suddenly mid unexpectedly last
February, having been discovered by An
derson In Edinburgh? In somn four days
Its brightness Increased from Invisibility
until It became the brightest star In the
tiorthern sky. The star's ntmosphcrc was
violently disturbed aa shown by n study of
Its spectrum In the spring months and
since June, nt least, t.hc spectroscope has
sbowji that If Is now; 'nebula, though re
taining to tho eye nnd In the telescope the
polnt-IIko form of an' ordinary star.
In August Prof. Max Wolf of Heidelberg,
Oermany, secured a four-hours' exposure
photograph of the region of the sky con
talnlng the now st.tr. , His negative showed
the existence of some extremely faint neb
ulous, patches south, of tho star, but with
rio ctfldeneo'of'any relationship between the
nebulous clouds nnd the star.
On i September 20, Mr. Bltchey. nt the
Ycrkji; observatory; photographed the
smnolf region witlfa more efllclent Instru
ment and found that' tho nebulous cloud
was nearly circular, some ten minutes' of
arc la diameter, but of varying Intensity
In Its different parts, with the new stnr
situated near the mlddlo of the nebulousy.
A recent photograph secured by Prof. Jlcr
rlnc with tho Crosley reflector recorded
the phenomenal features of the nebulousy.
Ho compared his photograph with tho
Yerkes photograph arid discovered that J ho
brightest portion pf tho nebula had moved
to the southeast more than one minute
of arc In the past six weeks. This observa
tion Is In every respect unique. Motion
on this enormous seal, or one-fiftieth part

PARIS, Nov. 10. The French Toelgn of
fice has announced that the siiuiiu has
signed an iracje for the c?ecutio,i) of his
engagrments with. .the French .government
and that the Franco-Turkish dispute Is now

counaellnr of the French embassy In Con
stantinople, notifying him of th? .signing
of 'the 'Irdfle, wlilrh, while settling thf
orlglunl French demands, accepts the fresh
demands as set forth lit a .dispatch to tho
Temps from Cohstant'luople Friday, and
rablfd to tho Asioijlated Press, together with
an "additional clause, by which the nultan
pledgos himself to consider, as authorized,
in full right the foundations, extensions,
constructions and repairs of schools nnd
religious and hospitable establishments.
which Frfiqoe tna desire to carry out If
the porte la advised of the' Intentions nnd
makes no objection .within five months.
Frnnce has thus far received full satis
faction nnd M. Drlrqssc on tile receipt of
M. Ilapst's telegram telegraphed him .to In
form Towllx Pasha that diplomatic rela
tions would be resumed, and that M. Dapst
would be regularly rhacged with tho af
fairs of the legation.
Instructions were sent to. .Admiral Call-
Inrd at Mltyleno to roturn to' Greek waters,
which Is understood to wean the vicinage
of the island of Syra, Admiral Calllnrd
will remain In the levant somo time longer.
M. Constnns, theiFrcneh ambassador, will
roturn to Constantinople shortly.
The additional .clause was conceded nt the
future difficulties, such as f.e Turkish
provincial authorities .have often raised
either on their own Initiative, or In con
sequence of Instigation by the porte.
Sump I'lilltloH In It.
The morning papers In their comments
upon the termination of tho Franco-Turkish
Incident follow party lines strictly. The
supporters of tho government hall tho re
sults as n grent diplomatic, moral and ma
terial success. Other Journals cither nf
frct scepticism with referenco to the final
outcome or assume that It Is really a check
lisgulsed under the more or less llluslonary
promises of tho sultan. Some papers even
hint that France has actually bncked down,
owing to the- coolness with yvhlch the pow
ers hnve received Its explanation regarding
the scope of the naval demonstration.
'Wo hope the demonstration will be suffi
cient to restore forever the prestige of
Franco In the east," says Figaro. "Doubt
less the very near future Will show If so
great a result has been obtained so
cheaply."
Tho (Jaulols, while admitting that a suc
cess has been achieved, remarks: "The In
stability of the government and tho con
tradictions ,of Us diplomacy are such that
even the sultan thought there was no risk
In trentlhg tho French like mero Arme
nians. The Mltylehe expedition Is said to
have disabled him, but must we always
mobilize a fleet In order ,ta. force a foreign
nation, to respect JJsT" ' ,
The Solell remarksr "we nave anomer
promise added to somany. We aro Bonie
what In a'hurry In announcing tho end of
tho Franco-Turkish conflict."
Tho Petit Tarlslen. which voices the
views of tho government, says; "It Is for
Fnir.ce a considerable diplomatic success.
The rapidity and precision ot the move
ment of the squadron was a military suc
cess which Europouas noticed. Our dig
nity In the levant and our moral autnoruy
Issuo from tho conflict Increased -lu the
present and assured for the future."
Sultiiii Surely Known .Vow.
The Temps, which describes the results
as "a brilliant victory for French diplo
macy," says: "The great merit of the
government was In being able to restrkl
its action. Serious difficulties might have
arisen had Franco departed from Its reserve.
The favorablo disposition shown to our
representations abroad, has hcen due to ths
fact that tho clYlllzed world has hnd op
portunity during tho last seven years to
observe the progress of the nntl-European
movement In tho sultan's councils. French
men, Americana, Austrlans, Italians and
Ilrltons have pll been victimized by the
sultnn nnd his councillors. After the Ar
menian mossacres and the successful war
with Orceco thoy thought everything was
permitted to them. Wo hope tho sultan
will now understand his duties toward tno
civilized powers and towa'rd his own ub
Jncts, unto whom he has taken solemn en
gagements which he has always disre
garded. Otherwise Europe, which, thanks to
the enprgetlc action ot France, la now able

Ity It, lost seven years ago, w'lll applaud
tho Initiative whlchtho signatory powers
of the nor'lln treaty are reported to havo
about taken to extort from the sultan the
execution of clauses too long fallen Into
disuse."

Thomas O'Don'ncll. This great gathering
wns directed by the United Irish league
and the presiding officer was William Moy.l
Garrison. His nddreis was well In keep
ing with the sentiment of the evening. Mr.
Garrison said;
At n time when powerful nations are

cial greed drowns the voice of conscience
nnd humanity, It Is especially lining tint
we should welcome the distinguished itiiest

Ireland nnd South Africa, common victims
of Kiiglalid's wrongs, are separated by
wide sens, and the harrier of lausuure.
Happily the sturdK burghers of the Trans

lo speak tlnough Irish lips In the House of
Commons with uncompromising effective
ness. It Is to the honor nnd glory of Ire
land that lu this crisis her reiirescntntlvo
sons have stood as a bulwark for frepdom.
It Is cheering to see Irishmen again In
solid phalanx with reunited front,
Mr. Garrison expressed hope 'that nntl
Engllsh demonstrations In this country will
he intelligently against the autocratic and
plutocratic cbsse now holding political
control In England, but that goneral recog
nition will be made of that better England,
trmcd "pro-Boer" nnd "traitors," typified
by Johti Morlcy, Frederick Harrison, John
Burns, Miss Emily Hobh'ouso and Dr.
Spcnco Watson.
Mr. Redmond was the first speaker and
In his opening he referred to his first ad
dress here eighteen years' ngo when John
B. O'Rcllley presided. Since that time, he
said, he had been engaged In and out of
the House of Commons In many countries
nnd In tho prison cell for the Irish cause.
He pnvo a detailed account of tho work of
uniting tho various factions which has re
sulted In the United Irish league. He and
his colleagues had come to America to pro
claim three things. First, tho unity of tho
Irish race; second, to explain tho policy
of tho United Irish league; third, to ask
tho moral end material support from tho
Irish race lu America, from their descend
ants and tho American people themselves.
Mr. O'Donncll, who wns next Introduced,
told of the alms of the British National
league, reviewed the method of selecting
Irish memlyrs of Parliament and referred
facetloush' to his attempt to Instruct' the
members of Parliament in the Irish
language. "Today," he contnucd, "Ireland
Is nn Irish Ireland, whose sons respect
her past, respect and value her products
and bar everything that comes from Eng
land," 'Wo are not cowardly enough," said he,
''to make any statement In this free re
public that we would not mak'o In Ireland
or In the House o'f Commons. We should
be Unworthy ot freedom did wo counsel
tamo submission to Intolerable wrongs. I
nppcal to Irish parents in America to do
their duty to cultivate an irisn national
sentiment and to Instruct tholr children In
the history of our beloved country."
Mr. O'Donncll also gave a greeting to
the audience ln his mother tongue. Mr.
McHugh spoke on the bright outlook for
tho Irish-people and said they must follow
theTJoIley. of 'Parnell. He 'said that In lre-t
land there were only two factions! one for
the Irish people and the other against
them. He paid a tribute to Mr. Redmond,
tho leader of the Irish parliamentary dele
gation. Rev. J. Arthur Tecllng of Lynn Intro
duced a series of -resolutions, which were
unanimously- adopted, endorsing tho plan
of the United, Irish league, as outlined by
Mr, Redmond, and promising moral and
financial support of the movement.
Tho guests of the evening were escortod

to General Smith decJarlng that he will
not listen to negotiations for surrender
until nil the Americans have withdrawn
from Gandarn valley. General Smith has
ordered every soldier on the Island and
tho Island ot Ley to to be never without

responsible. General' Smith also directs
thnt scouting must continue Incessantly nnd
that nil rice and hemp' captured must he

The federal convention continues Its
meetings, but these are as a rule of a

Senor Velaeco to a duel, but the' latter re
fused to fight, owing -to' the age of the
challenger.
Many provincial delegates hnve nlrcady

to enter upon the inlmites of the conven
tion an expression of the regret' felt by
the delegates at th'o lack of Interest dls
played In the work tf political organiza

each Instance ho yielded to the persuasion
of his friends that ho should go back and
finally he formally tendered his resigna

'Thero yet remain several- stages to be

"I am the wife of a minister. About

a minister, asked me if I had ever tried
giving up coffee and using the Postum
Food Coffee. I had been telling her of
my excessive nervousness .and 111 health.
She said: 'We drink nothing else for
breakfast but Postum Food. Coffee and It Is
a delight and a comfort to have something
that we do not have to refuse the children
when they ask for R.'
"I was surprised that sho would permit
tho children to drink any kind of coffee
but she explained that it was a most
healthful beverage nnd that the children
thrived on It. . A very little thought con
vlnced mo that for brain work one should
not rely upon a stimulant such as coffee
Is, hut should have food, and the very best
of food.
"M first trial of Postum was a failure.
The maid of all work brought It to tho
table, lukewarm, weak nnd altogether
lacking In character, vo-were In despair,
hut decided on one more trial. At the
second trial wo faithfully followed the di
rections, used four teaspoonfuls to the

with rich cream. It was' delicious and
we were all won.
"I have since sung the praises of Postum

"bad,ln places very bad."
The staple grnln, rye, was particularly
deficient, Winter wheat was "had" In the
Don province, Yekatcrlnoslaff, Poland and-
the Balllc" provinces, and 'goad only In the
southwest', All summer grains were below
average and ranged from "bad" to "very
bad," In tho"rnst and southeast, summer
wheat "arid onts being notably deficient.
Barley and millet turned out somewhat
better, pens nnd buckwheat, llax and hemp'
had." Potatoes wero .nearer the avcrnge,
hut suffered with other brendstuffs. The
unfavornhle season was aided hy field mice,
which swarmed In Perm, nnd other pests.
Tho total estimated yield of various
grains In European Russia, Including CIs
Cnurnslr. nnd Poland, was as follows: Ryo,
1,100,S95,000 poods (a pood equals thirty-six
pounds average); wheat, full, 747,000; oats,
03C,ti71,000; hurley, 301,289,000; millet, 02,-
857,000.
The deficient harvests of 1900 caused a
shrinkage of, l.f.OO.OOO rouble In tho In
come from tho payment of pensants for
their lands and the minister of finance Is
resolved to materially diminish tho esti
mated receipts from this source In the
Dcxt budget.
The government nppears fully conscious
of .the ndded responsibility thnt It has as
timed by virtually excluding prlvnte per
sons nnd nseoclattohs from participation In
relief measures. Judging from tho official
publications and such' scattered notices as
Individual pampers publish from tlmo to
time, every effort Is being made to discover
and mitigate suffering.' It is' stated that
the governor of Sarntttff has orgnnlzt'd In
the district of Khovllnsk n spdclnl relict
commission, composed of the Zeemsky
Nntchnlnlk, the government' ngent In-dealing
with the Zemstvo or local government
hoard: the president of the executive coun
cil of the Zemstvo nnd the Red Cross dele-
satos.
Tho .Red Cross will open free eating
houses nnA direct tho medical relief. The
greatest difficulty is anticipated from tho
Tartars nnd the Finnish tribe, known ns
Mbdvn. The Tnrtors rent their lands' to
Russians and are destitute. Tho cobcs of
scurvy nrid typhoid are Increasing. Grnln
Is being distributed nt the rato of two
poods of rj'o per month per adult. A thou
sand free meal tickets nre Issued dally.
The distress has been Increased hy a fire
which destroyed 1,300 huts.
From the Taurldo i Is announced thnt
417,000 roubles nre to bo expended on high
ways, of which the government will loan
18,000. Tho Zemslvo of the government
of Kazan asks for 150.000 roubles In order
to organize tho sale of grain to thoso ablo
to buy. Tho money has to bo provided In
ca'so the Zemstvo will allow tho finance
ministry to dictate the prices and will ngrco
to refund tho money.
Tho public has not. responded heartily
to tlo appcahr of tho Red Cross for sub
scriptions. In this city only 1,722.55
roubles had been contributed n few days
ago. Tho Red Cross, however, enjoys the'
benefit of certain taxes and privileges.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON,. Nov, 10. (Special.) For
mnty years before the SpRnlsh war medical
men In t this, country, nnd especially tho
physicians of the south, Insisted that the
cleansing of Cuba would result In the sup
pression of yellow fever In Amerlran towns
and cities. When General Toral surrendered
the cltj' of Santiago to General Shatter
Imm'edlnte steps were taken by tho Amer
icans to cleanse thnt filthy city thor
oughly. The sanitary work was placed under
tho 'Immedlnto charge of General Leonard
Wood. He appointed a sanitary corps and
placed Major George M. Barbour at" Its
head, The enormous task of cleansing a
city rotting- under the accumulation of 400
years of fllUi w;os begun In earnest. Thou
sand's of, boJles'0f men and animals were
slacked up nnd burned, hundreds of bar
rels of petroleum being used for tho pur
pose. Cesspools 'which had nover been
emptied since the. days of Columbus were
clea,asc(l anil purified Tho filthy habits of
the natives were corrected nnd then began
the expenditure of .vast sums of money In
pa.vcmentB nnd. sewers. In the menntlrao
Havana watched (ho renovating of Santiago
nnd quickly follpwed suit.
'A't the 'end ni the first year the results
wpro apparent. .The yellow fever season
came nnd went with few chsob recorded In
Santiago. Thero was nothing Itko nn epi
demic. On the contrary the cases reported
occurred through carelessness nnd were
'confined' to nonresidents. By the time the
second anniversary of tho Spanish evacua
tion ot Cuba camo around Havana had
been cleansed and the people had learned
a valuable lesson In the valuo of cleanli
ness, Tho sanitary report for tho third year
of .American-occupation has Just appeared.
Thero wore but two deaths from yellow
fever In Havana , during September, as
ngalnst an avorage mortality of fifty-two
frpm this causo during that month In for
mer .years. . In Santiago tbo falling off Is
said, to bo on a par with tho change In the
larger city. , So far as k,nown thero was no
yellowy foyer nj. all (n any American city
during tho year Just passed. This satis
factory. chano In existing conditions is
dtl'o primarily' to lie efforts of the Ameri
can mllltnry and civil authorities to teach
tiio people of Cuba that cleanliness Is es
sential to immunity from yellow fover.
