Bulgaria has confirmed Austria in the European war. ton has been forecasted for many weeks, the ovent comes as assurance that the German allies feel their situation on other (frontiers suffi- clently secure to warrant closing the back door sgainst any possible Invasion. Circumstances attendant on the course of Bulgaria, so far as known in this country, Indicate that most stren- uous efforts were made by the Allles to win over all the Balkan nations, and especially Bul- geria, but German diplomacy has now secured this coveted support. The veil of a rigid censorship obscures the | battle | front, but it is known the Allies failed to induce | happenings in and around the Baikan Greece to come to thelr side, although such action Is yet possitle. This failure, however, interferes with the plan of Invasion only to the extent of putting the French and English in the position of violating the neutrality of Greeco when landing soldiers at Saloniki, though It seems that Greece has tacitly consented to this course. The first struggle will be for the pos- ression of the road to Nish and the line through Bulgaria, to the end that Turkish rellef may be given or prevented. 8o far as concerns the text of the Bulgarian pronunclamento, declaring (ts reasons for /ite present action, nothing of moment hangs on it for the main fact s that it has entered the war, reducing the European neutrals to the Scandi- | mavian countries, Holland, Spain, Portugal and Bwitzerland. Civilization salvation in Burope. is getting a lot of No doubt longer remains that the president and his controlling majority in congress Is pre- paring to back-track on the sugar schedule of the democratic tariff, which provided for the gradual abolition of duties to put sugar on the free list within another year., When the ques- tion of free sugar was up it developed Into a rald by seaboard refiners of imported sugar on the beet sugar industry of the country, with the cane sugar growers of Loulsiana llkewise hard hit. The balance-turning Influence, however, was the pressure brought from the White House | insisting that the sugar duty, being a protective duty, was in direct conflict with the democratic fur-revenue-only doctrine, and that free sugar was (mperative to make good the democratic pledge to reduce the high cost of living, But the partial tariff cut on sugar so far has bud but two results—first, to discourage the further development of the American beet sugar industry, and second, to gouge the national treasury out of many millions of dollars of revenue sorely needed. 8o far as the consumer of ‘sugar is concerned, the promise of lower prices corresponding to the amount of duties removed has not materialized. In a word, the democratic sugar schedule has proved a failure from every standpoint, and in woving to rescind the free sugar program the president and the democratic spokesmen must make this open cunfession and retrace thelr steps and get back cn a protective tariff road Watching the World's Serfes. The British censor may sit as tight as he wishes on the lid for the next few days, for the Anierican people have something else of much greater importance than the European war to occupy their time. The World's serles Is on, and for the present at least “Bill” Carrigan and “Pat” Moran will get more attention than kaiser or king. The condition of “Smoky Joe” Wood or Grover Cleveland Alexander means more just new than any of the doings of Joffre or Von Hindenberg.

Base ball is really a national institu- tion, and no extraneous matter, such as the war in Europe, can distract our people from their interest In the game. Maybe, If the older and more highly cultivated races of Europe had paid 8 little more attention to base ball the war would not have happened. Sweden Manifests an Interest. The Swedes are beginning to manifest some concern over the conditions that govern trade between neutrals, and may yet add thelr pro- tests to those of the United States.

PEREON IN THE LINE OF FIRE of a moden | gun leirs detinotly two succe: sive detonations. Accoidirg to his di these may be close to- | mether or fariher apart, and they may or may not be accompanicd by & contnued whistling or roar Ing sound. The two nolses, as ls noted by Colonel | Agnus, of the French sriny. in the Revue scientiliue | (Paris), are tamila: to taiget-keepers in rifle-matoiies who usually suppoee them to be caused respectively by the discharge of the gun and the impact of the bullet on the target or the ground. This is Incor- rect, Colonel Agius tells us, the (irst noise is the d scharge, but the second Is due to disturbance of the alr by the Lullet. When the projectile starts, it s | moving faster than ro.nd. It slows up, and when it | has gone abou & mile and & half the sound-wave be- #1n8 to gain on It and finelly passes t. To these facts are due the |henomena of the bulet's nolse, as is | shown by C.linel A:nus in & mathematical analysi: In the first plece, the two ncises will be heard only with modern high-powered weapons, whose bullets move faster than sound. If the observer s nearer than about 30 feet, the two sounds merge into one. Farther away they are hiard farther apart, and at about a mile and a hilf—the polnt whers the velocit/ slows down to that of sound, a continuous whistle or roar Is heard, f ret between the two detonations, and farther awsy, lasting lonzer und lonser, Of course it the projectile ts a shell, Ita subeequent exploston adde other nolscs. In clo 1ng, Colonel Agnus makes some Interesting appiications. “One thine that has always struck the attentive reader,” he writcs “Is to find In all consclentious nar- atives of the (all of meteors, without exception, the mention of & fo midible Cetonation. In general, It ts stated that the lolide exploded—that It burst with a terrible nol e. And If it 18 found later In a field, it I discovered that there was no explosion at all, and often that It urled itself In soft earth, which must have lessencd the nolse of impact very much, the de- tonation, in my opinion, s very naturally explained by the disturbance of the alr, on the theory expiained | above. *In one of his stories—From the Farth to the Moon' ~Jules Verne, who'e works properly fascinate ail ¥ peop'e and are much liked by many of ma- turer age, iives a different account of things. At the moment when his ‘projectile; falling on the earth, plunges Into the sem, he tells how there was & whist- ling heard in the farthest regtons of the alr, assum. ing rapidly a frightful Intensity. when there sudcenly appearcd a huge meteor, which grew In size to the view until it burfed iteelf In the waves with a deaf- ening roar. Thus, acco'ding to the avthor. we have | first a whistl'ng, then appearance of the projectite, and finally the nolse caured by ts striking the water Now, to speak only of the whistling, It s certain that this could not hiive been heard hefore the arrival of the profect'le.

OMAHA, Oct. 8—To the Editor of The Bee: 1 would offer a word of consola- to the gentlemen of the finitials whose ears have been offendea by the singing st the Tabernacle. I sympathize with his outraged musical taste. The Rode- heaver collection of near-music s atro- clous enough, and the famous “Brighten the Corner” has probably the least musi- cal merit of the lot. But why this sud- den outburst of aesthetic taste on the part of our friend? Has he never before been aware that ragtime was sung in | Omaha? Have his ears never been glad- | dened by the delicate cadences of: “Everybody's doing it, doing it, doing it, Everybody's doing it no-o-ow.” Or has he never heard future husbands and fathers voicing their conception of marital obligations in “My Wife's Gone to the Country,” or “I Love My Wife, but Oh, You Kid, Oh, You Ki4, You | Kia?" Probably he is not the father of weet, young thing whom he might heard in the parior assuring a male caller, to the tinkle of the piano, that she ocould “hug him tili she swooned.” a | 1t he had been aware of these things | he might be breathing a prayer of thanksgiving that if our young people must sing ragtime they may at least | mccompany it with words that do not soll their lips and poison their minds at the same time that they degrade their artistic concept. Rest assured, friend, s vown that will pack a burlesqus children twice week, and will shake its collective sides at the transplanted Indecencies of the Winter Garden, will not have its taste vitiated by anything heard at the Taber- nacle.

You can hardly blame the people for their criticisms when they see you hurry through your business In a town in order to get back onto the train or to the hotel, wheie you continue your game of “pitch” or “rummy,” to the dis- pleasure of other passcngers or guests, and rendering the proprietor of the hotel lable Lo a (ine of $i0 for permitting card waying In his hotel. Or, why do you occupy two seats in a passenger coach, one for yourself and one for your grips and your leet, while other passengers walk the alsle hunting & place to sit. Or, why do you hold one seat In the passenger coach by deposiiing | your grips there, and at the same time hold another in the smoking car while you help to fill the car with smoke and cover the floor with ashes and spiitie? Or, why do you sit or stand around In & walting room of the station and smoke your “long distance”” smelling pipe, a vile clgar or an abominable cigaiette, while other people have to endure it because you have lost that nice sense of decency or cannot read the notice on the wall saying, “Smoking Is prohibited In this waiting room?"’ These are some of the reasons which call forth the criticisms against the mod- ern traveling man. Do you wonder that it is so? The “U. C, T." and “lowa State” might establish & achool for traveling men only who din't know any better, L Y A Twenty-three-Year Traveling Man. Takey Ivane with Dr, Sedlncek, WOOD RIVER, Neb, Oct. &-—To the Editor of Te Bee: On my several v'sits to Nebraska 1 have hud the privilege of reading the Bee, and of keeping posted on events In the east, wnere my home 1s. The Bee's Letter Box is Interes ing, sometimes Instructive, sometimes misleading. A striking colncldence is the letter of Dr. Sedlacek calling to ac- count “fatuous busybodies, In an unwar- ranted invasion of the home as well as meddling with the physiclans’ business.” And on another page of tire same lssue the suit of Mrs. Frances F, Wiley, widow of Dr. Wiley of Osmond, in behalf of herself and minor children against cer- tain saloonkeepers for 60,000, her ocon- tention being that her .ate husband, through liquor furnished by them, lost his practice of $6,000 annually. ‘The logic of Dr. Bedlacek would doubt- loss call this suit an unwarranted in- vasion of the saloonkeepers’ rights.

The | took the check for his small fraction, | left the office, stopped on the street and scrutinized the check again and again Returning to the lawyer's office he asked, “Please, sir, win you tell me | whose head was struck oy the brick.” The day for such extortion Is passing. The workingmen's compensation law pre- vents it And it s accomplishing another thing. It is compelling the emoyer to Inves- tgate to the Ilimit the cause of overy | accident In his establishment.

Who had charge of these men? A trusted foreman who was a moderate drinker. Rigld Inquiry revealed the faot that on his way to work that morning he had taken his usual aripk, and even the slight fuddle was tne cause of the accident. I hardly think Dr. 8. would care to go before the workingmen's com- | pensation board in the employers' Inter- ests and argue that the charge against the foreman was all “‘bunkum.” The ex- experience of the firm referred to Is that of every firm and Is tne reason why only total abstainers uncer normal busi- ness conditions can secure employment and retain their jobs.
