London.-Bennett Burleigh, in q

Tepe Fort, already. reported by Lieu

THE Bulgarians determined upon

their attention upor North and West
for assault. Storming battalions who
first attended divine worship stripped
off and piled their superfluous coats
and baggage in the trenches, and made
ready with linesmen and reservists in

Then the Turks precipitated things
by attempting to make another sally
to the west and south. Then an in
ferno broke loose. The Turks came
on, not knowing what was in store for
them. Lines of their levies advanced,
anxious to regain the ground, par

VERSE or LITTLE MOUNTAIN
STATE ron sEMi-cEN-
TENNIAL.
Edmund Vance Cooke May BE Asked
To Write-s5oo The Sum To Be
Paid for Appropriate Poen--con,-
petition May Be Open TO All.

Wheeling. w Va.-Edmund Vance
Cooke, poet, Of Cleveland, Within the
next few. days, according to Informal
ton furnished, viii be asked to write
poem for the West Virginia semi
centennial He is to be visited at his
home In the Forest city, in order that
the arrangements may be completed,
it is understood.
The committee in charge Of provid-
ing poem for the West Virginia semi
centennial was composed OF B. w.
Peterson, of this city; Hon. Henry G..
Davis, Of Elkins. and DR.. Thomas
Hodges, of Morgantown. However,
Mr.. Peterson has since resigned from
the semi-centennial commission and
therefore from the committee.
A sum of $500 was appropriated by
the semi-centennial commission for
the purpose of securing suitable
poem for the occasion, and 1t is I'M
derstood that Henry VanDyke, OF
Princeton, was first approached with
an offer of this amount, to write the
poem, but was unable to give 1t his
consideration.
In the meantime it seems that con-
siderable opposition. has developed to
the committees plan OF selecting a
wellknown poet to write the verse
for a stated sum, the general senti-
ment seemingly being that the $500
should be offered as prize in an open
competition, or better still, only to
West Virginians, since the money was
provided by the taxpayers of the state.
One local man said: "1f a man out
side the state writes this poem, what
have you? Certainly not a product
of the soil of the Little Mountain state.
The poetry could not he full of the
sentiment for these rocks and rills
that we want, the sentiment that over
flows only from the breast of a West
Virginian."
Another opinion expressed to the re-
porter was that an open competition
throughout the state might discover
some genius who might otherwise
struggle hidden in the mountains for
years, or turn to some other career
through lack of finances. That piece
of poetry-better than any that could
be written outside the state-might
turn up from the students at Nor
gantown, Bethany or Wesleyan, or
from the leastexpected source, seems
to be the general opinion.
