Dickinson, of New York, United States diplomatic agent at Sofia, Bulgaria, has been declared persona hon grata by the Bulgarian government on account of his atti- tude in the of Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary who case was, abducted by Macedonian politi- religious enthusiasts. Mr. ' Dickinson is now in Constantinople. In view of the declaration of Bul- garia, this government is obliged to, consider his »osition at Sofia as va- cant, and he will not return there. The news of Mr, Dickinson’s dis- missail was received at the state de- partment from John G. A. Leishman, United States minister to Turkey, who sent a brief telegram saying that the Bulgarian government had declined to »gnize Mr. Dickinson. The only explanation of this -action given by it was based on dissatisfaction with Mr. “last fall.” This unquestionably refers to the ac- tivity shown by Mr. Dickinson at Sofia in seeking to secure the release from captivity of Miss Stone and her native Mme. Tsilka, minister, was re- cently arrested by the Bulgarian au- thorities for complicity in the ab- duction of the two women. Mr. Dickinson, it is understood, be- lieved that the Bulgarian authorities had been responsible, through Dickinson's conduct companion, whose husband, a neg- lect, for thé kidnaping of Miss Stone, and he was of the opinion also that they interfered with his efforts to secure her release. In the midst of the negotiations be- tween the abductors and Mr. Dickin- son for Miss Stone’s ransom, he left Sofia for Constantinople, and has re- CHARLE (United St M. DICKINSON.

It is likely, however, that Bulgaria's at- titude will have an important bear- ing on the the United States of the question of re- determination by sponsibility for Miss Stone’s abduc- tion.

The courtship and wedding has ben conducted under the direction of a band of guardian spirits numbering ten, and the cere- mony was performed at the same time greatly JUST AFTER THE CEREMONY. In the spirit world, the duties of a cler- gyman being assumed by the spirit of a Mrs. Wilson, who officiated through the organism of a medium, she con- ducting the ceremony as a minister would, only in different words. Mr. Comstock is now engaged in the work of materialization and trumpet bearing around the room and singing ‘hymns by a concentration of spirit forces. “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” was sung /at the ceremony, while the medium was ‘entranced. Mr. Comstock was an | Englishman Ly birth, and a chemist, and his spirit bride says that this is why he is a fine subject for materiali- , zation, chemists being particularly susceptible to that work through good mediums. The band of spirits that guard the bride have taken Mr. Com- stock in and wil] form a spirit lodge, controlling the movements of the new- ‘ty wedded pair.
