nies fell into disorder and on arriving
at Arta threw the town into state of
panic. The inhabitants fled terror
stricken. No dispatches have been re-
eeived from Arta since noon to-day,

IL is believed that the sudden ad-
vance of the Turks In Epirus is due To
the apprehension that the powers will

The news from Thessaly is also unfa-

London. April S0.-The Standards
correspondent at Athens says: Last
evening as the Crown Princess Sophia
was returning from a visit to the am
bulance hospital she was Missed and
Jeered by the crowd, which forced her
To return tn the hospital. The royal
carriage was then summoned and the
princess drove to the palace at the top
OF the speed of her horses. The royal
arms have been stripped from the car
riages in order that the occupants may
drive about unrecOgnized and thus
avoid similar experiences. As another
indication of popular feeling. | may
point out that many of the tradesmen
who were wont TO display the royal
escutcheon In front of their shops have
removed them. While a priest was Of

THE JUDICIARY.

Delaware has adopted the "NoDparti-
san Judiciary" by providing in its new
Constitution that not more than three
of the five Supreme Court judges shall
belong to the same political party. The
committees of the Democratic and Re
publican parties in Chicago have done
the same thing by an agreement that
the fourteen judges in that city be
hereafter selected one half from each
party. In Wisconsin, by common con,
sent, the judges, eve since the admis
sion of the State in the Union in 1916,
(B1 years ago., have uniformly been
nominated by both parties or the joint
recommendation of the Executive
Committees of both parties.
Delaware has also abolished the life
tenure of the judges, being the last
state to do so, and has substituted a
term of twelve years. The life tenure
is now held only by q. 8. Judges, and
as each of the fifty states and terrific
ries have abolished it, the reform must
soon reach them also.
