and Dies of Starvation.
New York , Sept. 11. In a gloomy ,
old-fashioned old street , Urooklyn , the
police , who battered down the door ,
have found the body of Mrs. Margaret
May lying on a bed In an upper room.
At her feet lay the body of a fox ter
rier dog. Until recently the old house
had been a Mecca for the poor of that
quarter. Since- the death of Mrs.
May's husband , who was quite weal
thy , the woman had distributed char
ity to all who applied.
She had not been seen for at least
n month and weeds had grown high in
the usually well kept garden where
she formerly had spent much time.
Finally , alarmed at her non-appear-
nnce , the neighbors notified the po-
llco nnd the doors were broken open.
The woman had been dead nearly a
month , evidently from natural causes ,
but the little dog had never quitted
his vigil and died from starvation.

tially disrobed and dressed In a dressIng -
Ing sack , and on a stand nearby was
an envelope addressed to Dr. McNutt ,
nnd containing a holographic will.
The dead woman was one of the four

POWERS GIVEN WARNING.
Bulgaria Can Not Long Remain Neu
tral Temper of People Has
Become Aroused.
London , Sept. 11. The temper of
the Bulgarian people and government ,
according to telegrams from Solla , i.s
rialng to danger point. All Indica
tions tend to show that however loyal
ly the government desires to observe
u neutral attitude It will bo forced en-
long by pressure from the people Into
a formal declaration of sympathy wltli
the Macedonian Christians. Prcmiei
Potroff's iiil'ornioil intimation to thu
diplomats In Silf- . that unless some
means of restraining Turkey's terrible
measures to suppress the uprising In

Bulgaria will be forced to depart from
