Reported that the Greeks Have Got In
the sRear of the Turks Cutting Off
Supplies.

LONDON, April 24.-All things con
sidered the advantage is with the
Greeks today. The Turks have re,
ceived a severe check on land and the
Greeks have greatly strengthened
themselves by active offensive opera
tions along the sea coast. The Turk
ish army is partially demoralized by
the changing of commanders, although
O5man Pasha is great soldier. A
London correspondent writes from
Constantinop'e today that the sultan
believes the Turks will be in Athens
within a month. His army is full of
fanatisim-drunk with blood of the
Armenians.
The practical refusal of Bulgaria to
acknowledge the vassalage to Turkey
is supposed to foreshadow declara-
tion of complete independence.
NEW YORK, April 24.-Three hun

Most Horrible Sight Meets the Hus-

WILLIAMSTOwN, Michigan, April
24.-Imagine the horror of returning
home to find the horribly mutilated
head of your mother resting on plat
ter at the dinner table. That was the
sight that shocked and sickened AL
fred Haney at noon today when he eu-
tered his home. The deed had
been committed by Haney's de-
mented wife with an AK. The
blow was doubtless delivered while the
old lady was sitting down. When she
fell the meniac seized a butcher knife
and slashed at her victims neck until
she cut it through. The bones she
parted with an ak. and then came the
insane idea of presenting the
head to her husband on platter. On
returning home Haney found his wife
wandering around the yard, mutterin g
wildly and waving her arms. The wo
man has for some time shown signs o
insanity.
