New York, Oct. 30. A cable mes- sage from Paris contains the follow- ing account of the beginning of the Balkan war: When the Sultan of Turkey gave or- ders for army mobilization he sent to the King of Bulgaria a sack of mil- let. with the following letter: Ferdinand ffendi Mobilize if you lke, but be assured that there are m many soldiers in Turkey as there afe grains of millet in this sack. Now, it you wish, declare wi The King s reply was in kind. He sent a very much smaller sack, filled with tiny grains of a most virulent red pepper of the country, With it went the following dedication: Dear Sultan The Bulgarians not numerous, it 1s true, but be. as- sured that to stick your nose into thelr-affairs is like sticking it into our wational condiment. Try it and wee They'Jt sting you so sharply that the whole of Asia will not be ible to save you. SE al Alaskan Miner and His Money Repose In John Gorman, of Juneau, Hides Worldly Wealth Beyond Discovery of Other Men. Juneau, Alaska, Oct. 31 Jobn) Gorman, resident of Juneau for the) past twenty-five years, died here last week One of his late-yoar fancies was his participation in the flag-raising c remonies at Sitka when Russia) ceded Alaska to the United States, Mr, Gorman s belief that he was) among the memorable gathering of first pioneers grew upon him until his friends finally humored him with acknowledging his cl Gorman Different Graves placer-mined Silver Bow basin from, mouth to headwaters. He was asuc- cessful placer-miner, and when the diggings played out he returned to quartz mining, For many years ho was foreman of the Little Treadwell Mining Company in the Basin, and other quarts mines found him in thelr employ at different intervals. Mr. Gorman retired from active work several years ago. But hearty and comparatively rugged for his burden of years, he sought work. It Ym said that between 12,000 and 15,000 was buried by him in the last twenty years, and as the hiding place for his money was a sacred secret that he Kept to. himself, the money will likely never be recovered. Fortune Smiles on Songstress Picks 15, Not Actually in Money, But in Shape of Lump of Am- bergris Worth That Am- ount. New. York, Oct. 31. It is not every prima donna who, finds 15,000 floating on the ocean while spending her summer vacation in fordigh coun- happened 000 From Ocean be a jelly fishs It was something she had not studied at close quarters be- fore and she asked a deck hand to get a boathook and haul it aboard. The jelly fish proved to be a big lump of amberegris, worth 15,000 to the perfume manufacturers. Mure. White rewarded the sailor who had caught it for-her, and when she reached Paris showed her. prize to Dr. Mason, of Boston. The doctor is well acquainted with a firm of perfume manufacturers, and he asked the prima donna if she would sell the ambergris to bis friends. Mme. White consented and said she would spend next summer in the Mediterranean in the hope of finding more: POPULATIO Sex distribution of population an, tho United States is interestingly dis- scussed in a bulletin recently issued by the census bureau and based on the count of 1910. While there are am re females than meles in Euro- pean countries, the opposite is true in the United States: For 1910 the proportion in the United States, ex- elusive of Alaska, Porto Rico, Ha- wall and other non-contiguous terri- tories was 106 males,to 100 females. The excess of males was even larger than ten years previously, the pro- portion then being 104.4 to 100. The rowing excess is attributed to in- creased immigration, which consists largely of males. It ta In the Pacific coast and moun- tain group states that the propor tion of males is largest. In Washing- ton there Were 196.3 males to 100 fe mates In 1910; in Oregon) 192.6; fn) Galifornia, 125.5; in Idaho, 13: Wyoming, 168.8. The largest propor- tion was made in Idaho, there being 179,2-males to: 100 females. The excess of male population is greater in the country than in the ities and towns. In 1910 there wer 109.9 males to. 100 females in the Ssountry and but 101.7 males to 100 females:tn cities. In several cities N AND SEX there are more females than males, thought it is well known that immi- rants, most of whom are males, tend to concentrate in the cities. This preponderance of females is attributed in part to the fact that the city affords more opportunities for employment of women than does the country. It may be explained in part too, on the theory that women prefer the social life of cities: In twenty- two citles of over 100,000 population there were In 1910 more females than males. The greatest preponderance of females in any city was in Nash- ville, where they were 89.6 mnales to 100 females. The population of New York city is about evenly divided as to sex, while that of Philadelphia and. Baltimore shows more females. Generally speaking, it is in the old- er countries and the older states: that females are more numerous. In the 100 females the number of males is 93,6 in England, 96.7 in France, 96.9 in the German empire, 96.4 in Switz- erland, 99 in Italy, 96.7 in Austria, 99,1 in Hungary and 96.9 in Russia. In the United: States there are more females than males, in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maryland, North Car- cling and South Carolina. In all oth- er states the males are more numer- ous.
