Doubt and Distrust stared up at me
And gaunt-faced, white-lipped Jealousy,

Oh, the house of my heart is over small,

An’ if I let you in I must let in all,
Oh, every one!
And riot would reign in my quiet hall,
And 1 fear me soon would my dwelling fall,

~ am
EE i TET
OR the past fow weeks I
have been studying bits of
reports that bave come in
from Macedonia from va-
©) rious chiefs of chetas, se-
cret agents and other in-
dividual members of the organization,
all regarding a certain incident whick
occurred some weeks ago down in
Southern Macedonia, in the caza, or
district of Tevgeli. It was much tele-
graphed about gt the time and men-
~ tioned in the European papers, but
ome of the main facts and all the
details have as yet remained secret.
Putting together the dry official re-
ports to the commiltee with the nar-
ratives of several participants or wit-
nesses who arrived here several days
ago, and excluding obvious individua!
exaggerations, there still remains the
story of an event which stands out as
. remarkable, even in this country of
sensational events. It is just such a
one as you may find here and there
in the pages of Herodotus—a second
~ Leonidas in another Thermopylae, It
is the story of how :hirty-eight comi-
tajis, well armed and well entrenched,
for a whole day stood off the repeated
attacks of 2000 regular Turkish
soldiers, a horde of several thousand
bashi-bazouks, several hundred Alban-
dans and a band of thirty Greeks.
‘These numbers are quoted in the Turk-
«sh reports.
Few people familiar with events
here for the past few years have not
heard of Apostol Voyvoda, known to
the Turks and gendarmerie officers as
_ Captain Apostol. There is a standing
| price of 5000 liras, or Turkish pounds,
on his head. He is a small, dark,
keen-eyed man of about thirty-five
_ years, who can neither rrad nor write,
and always signs his dispatches, writ-
ten by his secretary, with a rubber
stamp hanging as a watch charm.
Were he a man of education, he would
be one of the general lecders, for he
is intellectually keen. But he is the
Robin Hood of Macedonia, It is about
kim that the story centres.
A week before Lent Apostol came
_ here to Kustendil, to recross the froi-
tier some days later with several horse
loads of munitions, Ile was going to
take them to his cwn district, cache
them in the mountains to use them as
a reserve for the summer's fighting.
Witk Lim were Save Michaeloff, his
gub-chief, and thirty-eight men, On
the day before the begirning of Lent,
Apostol and his band were in the
Giavato Mountains. He wanted to
get over into the Cherni-Dervent Moun-
tains; between the two ranges runs
_ the River Vardar. During the day he
had sent a courier across the river
to the vilinge of Spalivo, asking the
villagers to send horses for the amnmu-
pition. As was afterwards known,
the courier was stopped in the inter-
‘mediate village of Stoyak, where a
company of scldiers were quartered.
* And this is the reason he was stopped.
A Greek shepherd boy, wandering
about "the mountains with his flock,
eame accidentally upon Apostol's band
in hiding for thie day. They took him
prisoner. Now, every Greck is an
enemy to every Bulgar, and for some
qnoments the boy's life was in danger.
Perhaps it was his youth which ap-
pealed to the chief; at any rate, he
released him. The boy at once went
to the village of Stoyak and reported
Apostol’s presence in the nearby moun-
tains, and ater pointed out the courier
passing through the village for Spalivo.
The latter was arrested. When night
came and the horses from Spalivo did
rot appear, Apostol de ided that per-
haps the villagers had lost the war,
go he and his men shouldered the am-
munition bags among them, descended
to the river, crossed it, and by moon-
light had reached their destination,
Spalivo. This village was several
‘miles higher up the same bauk of the
"river on which stood Stoyak, where
the soldiars, wefe quartered, On one
side are aigh mountain bluffs, on the
other the River Vardar.
But as the villagers had not received
‘Apostol’s message, they, not expecting
him, had made no preparations, First,
they had allowed their dogs free, who
noisily announced the entrance of the
pandsmen into the village. Their bark-
ings were heard by some Albanian
shepherds a short distance outside.
However, the ammunition was
gtored imran old, half-broken-down de-
sgerted house, and two of the bandsmen
~ avere detailed to sleep upon it. Apostol,
Michaeloff and their companions then
© divided themselves among a half dozen
houses nearby. In half an hour all
were asleep, save a few of the vil-
jagers, who remained awake to guard
_egainst surprise. Meanywkbile the sol-
a
diers in .»woyak had quietly marched
up to Spalivo and surrounded it. Then
a search party entered the village and
began searching the houses, The Al-
banian shepherds, who had heard the
barking of the dogs, joined them, The
soldiers were now doubly assured that
they had Apostol and his band sur-
rounded at last.
Meanwhile, the pounding at the doors
as the Turks demanded entrance to
the houses, alarmed the village. Ior-
tunately, tie search began from the
side opposite to that where the bands-
men were quartered. Now, it 1s a
standing law of the committee that the
bands must never fight in the villages,
unless absolutely cornered, so Apostol
and his wen, still half clothed, gath-
ered themselves together, and deter-
mined to break through the ring. It
is probable that the traitor, who, as a
Greek, hated the Turks only a little
less than the Bulgars, had minimized
the number of the band, and that the
Turks thought they bad only a band
o( ordinary size to deal with, of from
fifteen to twenty men, At any rate,
Apostol and his men had no difficulty
in walking through the circle. They
retreated quickly up the pass through
which the river runs until they could
go no further, Bebind them the bluffs
descended abruptly into the Vardar:
on one side rose cliffs, on the other,
below 'them, ran the river, a wide,
swift stream just then, for the snows
were melting, Before them the rock;
ground descended toward the village.
From a military point of view, it was
an ideal position for defense—and
death, for no escape vas possible.
Day was dawning then, as the
bandsmen hastily threw up three lines
cf trenches with loose rocks and
boulders that had once timbled down
from the heights above them. As
soon as the Turks were able to
locate their positions by the growing
light, they spread out in fan formation
below, and began to fire. The bands-
nen numbered just thirty-eight, for in
the hurry there Lad not been time to
gather in the two men who were in
the hut with the ammunition. As
was found later, they rontinued sleep-
ing undisturbed, for the Turks had
not considered the hut worthy of
search, and there the ammunition and
its two guards remained in safety dur-
ing the whole day. The first line of
trenches in the pass was defended by
Save Michaeloff and eleven nien.
Fifty yards beyond and higher up
fifteen men were stationed, and still
higher up were Apostol aad twelve
men,
Meanwhile the firing had begun to
attract to thie spot the vultures of the
Turkish army, the Dbashi-bazeuks.
These are a disorganized, irresponsibl:
rabble, who seldom fight but are al-
ways on hand to shave the plunder.
On occasions, they will sometimes sup-
port the troops in a charge, for thay
are well armed. These began to zather
in great numbers now, and took up
positions with the regulars. When the
fight was two hozrs old a Greer band
of thirty men, ccmmanded by an cficer
in the uniform of the Greek army, ap-
peared and joined the Turks.
Evidently the Turkish officer in com-
mand had recognized the strength of
Apostol's position, for hitherto he had
ordered no attack, Meanwhile it had
been telegraphed to Salonica, two
heurs away, by train, that Apostol
was cornered and more troops were
needed. But, anxious to gain the big
reward on Apostol's head, the Turk-
ish officer determined to get him
before his superiors arrived. En-
forced by the bashi-bazouks, the Al-
banians and the Greeks, he ordered
a general charge. The ‘bandsmen al-
lowed the charging throng to come
half-way up. Thea four hand gren-
ades were thrown and as many volleys
fired. They also rolled down huge
boulders into the panic-stricken Turks.
The destruction by the bombs was ter-
rific, for even the Turkish regulars,
fierce fighters as they are, poured down
in scrambling retreat.
Having lost heavily, the Turks made
no further efforts then to storm Apos-
tol's position. But in three hours the
reinforcements from Salonica began to
arrive. By noon twenty-five carloads
had come, two thousand soldiers in all,
Meanwhile the bashi-bazouks had
streamed steadily in from the sui-
rounding villages to the number of
five thousand, some reports say. That
is probably an exaggeration, and then,
too, as far as actual fighting was cou-
cerned, most of these fellows prob-
ably took up the passive attitude of
expectant spectators.
Upon the arrival of the generai offices
in command from Salonica, he im-
patiently ordered a general attack at
once. The soldiers made a wild up-
ward scramble, but again the bombs
were blasting up the loose lava among
them, That attack failed, as had the
first, Two more equally desperate ats
tacks had a similar result soon after.
Then the Turks withdrew and began
to open up a heavy fire on the rocks
above, depending on rock splinters to
destroy the insurgents behind their
positions. These tactics, although
costly—for Apostol and his men were
slowly pot shooting individual oflicers
wherever visible—were more success-
ful. By seven that evening, at fifteen
o'clock by Turkish time, the insur.
gents had been much reduced, Another
attack was ordered, before dark should
give the few survivors a possible
chance to escape. In the first trench
ouly Michaeloff and three wen were
alive, and they all wounded. In the
other two lines of trenches were eight
men unwounded.
As this last general attack began
the ammunit. nm of the bandsmen gave
out in a few last volleys. Then
Michaeloff and his three men in the
first trehch rose, deliberatel; smashed
their rifles over the rocks, destroyed
their watches in a similar manner
and drank the poison, which is part
of every bandsman’s equipment, to
save him from torture, if wounded.
The eight men above killed their
wounded comrades with their Knives,
and then made a break for the river.
The Turks were successful. They had
gained the position. The news was then
telearaphed that Apostol had been
killed. From one of the bodies were
taken personal I2tters addressed to him,
a rifle with his name engraved upon it
was found, and various villagers iden-
tified the corpse. Later it was found
that this was the body of Apostol's
secretary, So well was the Sultan
pleased with the rews that he imme-
diately telegraphed his personal thanks
to the troops, and sent £350 to be
divided among them, The gendarmes,
the creatures established by the re-
forms, who had taken part in the
fizht, were all promoted,
Next day Georgis Pasha, the Italian
gendarmerie officer, commissioned
there by the Powers, arrived and be-
gan an investigation, It seems he
was the first to question Apostol’s
death, At any rate, he sent for Apos-
tol's wife, who lives in a village near-
by, and the dead having already been
buried, he ordered them disinterred,
that she might identify her husband
among them. She failed to do so.
But several days after all doubts
were settled when the kaimakam, or
governor of the caza, received a letter
bearing Apostol’'s rubber stamped seal,
announcing himself in good health,
save for a sprained ankle. Of the
whole band of forty men, six escaped,
two being the guards who watched
over the ammunition and took no part
in the fight. They remained with it
until another band came a week later
and carried it safely off. Of the eight
who broke for the river, three were
drowned. while attempting to swim
across, and one, realizing that he could
not even attempt it, drank poison.
One reached the opposite bank and
escaped, and is now here in Kustendil.
Apostol and his three comrades
crouched among some rushes in shal-
low water, and escaped later in the
night when the search was over. He
is now recovering from his sprained
ankle in a secret hospital in the
mountains,
What the Turkish losses were in the
fight is hard to estimate truly. Turk-
ish reports only mention two Greeks
and sixteen Albanians killed. Vil-
lagers of Spalivo say 1200 in all fell,
but that is perhaps an exaggeration.
Still, the casualities must have been
heavy, otherwise such a large force
could not have been checked for a
whole day by thirty-eight men.—New
York Post.
Rachel’s Sister Still Lives,
kb Comparatively few persons are
aware that the once great actress of
the Comedie Francaise, Rachel, who
died so far back as 1838, has a sister
still living in Paris. This sister, Mlle.
Lea Felix, was hurt in a carriage acci-
dent recently, but is now getting
better. Mlle. Felix retired from the
stage fifteen years ago, her last ap-
pearance being as Joan of Arc, in
garbier's drama, at the Porte Saint
Martin. She always retcined her fam.
ily name of Felix. Mlle. Rachel, the
great tragedienne, had four sisters
and one brother. All her sisters were
actresses, like herself, and had con-
siderable sucess in the profesion. Lea
Felix is, in all probability, the only
one of the sisters now living. —Lon-
don Telegraph.
Noble Revenge.
It was a hot day, and the dray horse
and the thoroughbred carriage horse
nappened to be drinking at the same
‘rough.
“Youre a perfect fright,” said the
thoroughbred, indulging in a horse
laugh, “with that hideous old straw
hat on your head.”
The dray horse looked at him, but
said nothing.
Then, with a brush of his ample
tail, he brusned a fiy from the quiver-
ing hide of the carriage horse, which
the latter, with his poor little stump
of a tail, was unable to reach, and
dipped his mose in the trough again.

NO CLEAN BRASS.
To clean very dirty brass, scrub
with a mailbrush, dipped in powdered
bath-brick dust and paraffin. Even
the most tarnished brass can be
cleaned in this way. Polish with the
dry dust and a soft duster.
