Turkey Sues for Peace.

The request of the porte for media
ton seems likely to bring prompt end
to the shortest great war in history. On
October irregular fighting began on the
Montenegrin frontier. Not till October II
did the other countries declare war. Sc
rious fighting did not begin till October
10; on October 80, after a battle lasting
four unbroken days, the Bulgarians had
smashed the Turkish army in Thrace
and had constantinople at its mercy. Just
IL days of as strenuous fighting as the
world has known put fms to what was
once the greatest military power in Eu-
rope.
From declaration of war against the al
lies to the demand for peace it has been
but 16 days; when have events Of such
momentous import come with such stupe-
flying speed? The crisis is by no means
over, but the pacific attitude of Austria
and Russia gives good ground to hope
that a satisfactory peace can be arranged,
and the world will draw a great breath
or relief. Armageddon has never been
nearer than during the past two weeks.

The game was interrupted many times
by senseless kicking by the Greenflelo

unnecessarily tedious. Bratheboro was
