King Frederick Augustus of Saxony has completed arrangements for an extensive hunting expedition in the British Sudan. His majesty expects to start for Africa in February next and to be away for two months.
 The King will travel strictly incognito, and as far as his rank permits purely in the capacity of a big-game sportsman. Only two companions have so far been chosen to accompany his majesty-his physician, Dr. Selle, and his personal ad- jutant, Lieutenant Colonel Meister.
 The expedition will start from Khar- toum and follow the route along the White Nile to the vicinity of Fashoda. King Frederick Augustus, who is cap ital shot and an inveterate huntsman, is reading MT Roosevelts book on his big game expedition in Africa, and will doubtless benefit by the ex-Presidents experiences. The Kings brother, Prince Johann George, and his wife, and his majesty's sister, Princess Matilda, have just started on a journey to the far east.

THINGS ALARMING
 IN SOUTHEAST Germany Watches Develop ments in Balkan States A HUNTING EXPEDITION In the British Sudan Is Being Planned on an Extensive Scale By King
 Frederick Augustus of
 Saxony
 
A HUNTING EXPEDITION

Berlin, October 29.-(Special. .)-While the southwestern corner of Europe has appar ently calmed down, after the revolution ary eruption in Poftugal conditions con tinue to look exceedingly alarming in the southeast, though many things seem to show that King George of Greece has added another diplomatic victory to the debt of gratitude his unruly subjects all ready owe him, for he is reported to have brought about a reconciliation between Greece and Turkey. From absolutely re- liable source I hear that, unsupported by anybody, a secret exchange of views has taken place between the young Turkish and the Hellenic governments, and with the friendly aid of France, Turco-Greek entente is now being discussed, and, un- less something unpected intervenes. the world in general will know all about it in very short time.
 Aside from this very important develop ment, conditions in the Balkans may be summed up in very few words: Servia is uneasy, Bulgaria is restless and growl- ir Ioumania is ominously silent, and
 : is rapidly becoming Germanized.
 oha the people have also seen
 -te national hope destroyed, and set tins free their Christian brethren in Macedonia, but their king was afraid of European intervention. The opportune moment has gone and the nation has never forgiven the king for his coward ice. It Is said that 33O,OO0 armed men are still eager to march against the Turks. I have spoken with several of their leaS- CTS and some day this army of enthusi- asts will surely sweep the nation into &C., tion; the moment may come at any time. The powder barrel Is there and sparks are always flying.
 In Turkey the German General von der Goltz is modernizing the army after the best German pattern. The young Turks are ruling and their programme, as it now looks, Is this: Roumania is to defend them against the Bulgarians, Germany is to defend them against Russia and Flu rope, France is smoothing over the diff culties with Greece, and French money Is to help them to grow great and pow erful!

year for his candidate for Governor and
the people Of the country would be so
rash as to elect him president, that the
country would have a man at the head
of its affairs who has no regard for law,

Mr. Jones stated that friend OF his

publican party will scarcely survive the
defeat Of Nov. Sth. That party was
bounded on local and secular issues, and
the Democratic party represents just
the reverse and was never daunted by
defeat The Republican party #
thoroughly beaten will never rise again.
Mr.. Jones referred to the conditions
in the First district and his own candi-
dacy.
While he had no misgiyings as to the
result Of the coming election, he APP
pealed to all Democrats to stand by the
party and to vote for its candidate. He

number of the audience went forward,

His speech made fine impression on
all who heard it.
