TURKS MAY ACCEPT
ARM|ST|C TERMS
WESTERN ARMY is DEFEATED
BUTTHE FIGHTING STRENGTH
REMAINS.
THE WAR is MORE MENACING
Bulgaria corrals All Available Forces
In the Hope Of Crushing the Sui
tans Defense.-Army Well Supplied
With Food and Ammunition.

London.-The report that an arm1s-
tice had been agreed to by the Bulgar-
ians and Turks along the Tehatalia
lines for the burial OF the dead ap-
pears to have been unfounded. Dis
patches from Nazim Pasha, the Turk
ish commander-in-chi show that
the artillery duel has continued. The
Turks claim successes against the
Bulgarians, but there is nothing to in
dicate that the Bulgarians have yet
made any serious attempt to pene-
trate the lines. The battle may be
ended at any moment by Turkey ac-
cepting the allies terms for an armis-
tice, which are said to include the sur
render of the Tchatalia lines, Durazzo,
Adrianople and Siutari.
There is a possibility, however, that
Turkey may decline to surrender
Tchatalia. While her Western army
has been completely defeated she still
possesses, according to the cores
pondents at the front, homogeneous
army behind the Tchatalia fortitica-
tions largely composed of some Of
her best fighting material from the
Asiatic provinces which has not yet
been in action. Moreover, the demor-
alization and disorganization winch
followed the Kirk-Kisisseh and Luple-
burgas retreats appear to have been
remedied and the army is now well
supplied with food and ammunition.
Under these circumstances the
Porte may be induced tc make fur
ther stand in the hope OF securing
easier peace conditions

SOME RARE OPPORTUNITIES
Interest About Southeastern States
Aroused BY Southern Railway Ex-
hIbIts At Fairs In North.

Chicago, Ill.-Great interest about
the Southeastern States was aroused
by the exhibits made this fall by the
Southern Railway System at Northern
fairs and expositions. over quarter of
a million desirable people seeking and
receiving information regarding the
resources and opportunities Of the
Southeast. according to reports re-
ceived from representatives OF the rail-
way in charge Of the exhibits.
The various exhibits extended over
q period of two months and included
the country north OF the Ohio river
from New York and Pennsylvania to
Iowa. There were twenty-seyen sep
arate exhibits made at district and
county fairs in the Northern states in
addition to fine display put in at
the Canadian International Exhibition
at Toronto. The exhibits everywhere
attracted attention AS d rule visitors
pronounced them finer than those
made by local exhibitors, and 1t was
usual to hear the statement from a
man that he had no idea that the
Southeast was a country OF such won
derful resources and opportunities.
The fine displays of fruit, of corn,
wheat and other grains, and the show
ing about other products OF the South
ern soil were things that especially
appealed to great numbers OF Northern
farmers.
Not less than two representatives
OF the Southern Railway and It's asso-
ciated lines we're present at each OF
these exhibits, explaining conditions
In the Southeast and the opportunities
offered to the homeseeker as well as
the attraction of the Southern country
for investors or for visitors. Reports
of these agents show that the total at
tendance at the various fairs and ex-
hibits visited amounted to over 1,5O,-
900 people, that about 100000 visited
the Southern Railway exhibits, over
10000 people were personally talked
with about the Southeast and nearly
250,000 copies of literature advertis-
Ing this section were distributed In
addition to these exhibits special
dairy exhibits were made at the Chi
cago and Waterloo, Iowa, exhibitions,
and a special exhibit on live stock op-
portunities will be made at the Inter
national Live Stock Exhibition at Chi
cago in December.

A SCIENTIFIC STUDY
OF SOUTH CAROLINA SOILS
SUBJECT MERITS coNslDERA.
TON OF CITIZENS.
ADDRESS BY DR.. J. N. HARPER
An Able and Comprehensive Treatise
on Various Composition, Properties
and Possibilities Of the Soils From
Piedmont to the Coast.

Charleston.-One of the ablest pa
pers ever presented at the University
Of South Carolina was the recent ad-
dress by DR.. ]. N. Harper, director Of
the experiment station at Clemson
College. His subject was 1.-THE Soils
Of South Carolina and his careful
treatment OF the subject merits the
thoughtful consideration of the citi-
zens of the state. His paper is real
contribution to the scientific literature
of South Carolina. The address, in
part, is as follows:
"This is an age Of scientific research,
an age when the scientists are entering
into close relationship with the COM
mon affairs of life. No problem Is re-
ceiving more attention at present from
scientific men, the world over, than
the question of soil fertility. The soil
is the basis Of all our wealth. 1t is
heritage that we should foster,and it
is our duty to hand it down to sue
ceeding generations better than we
found it. South Carolina is primarily
an agricultural state, and the prosper
ity and happiness of its people are
largely dependent upon the fertility OF
its soils. No country has ever re-
mained permanently wealthy after its
soils have become infertile.
"Soil fertility is dependent upon so
many complicated biological, physical,
chemical and geological factors that
its true nature is not yet fully under
stood. The fundamental principles un-
derlying it, however, have been well
established; and. by the knowledge
of the various sciences, man, in the
last few decades, has discovered some
of its Mysteries which have puzzled
the wisest minds of every age. In the
light of this new knowledge, the labor
now Icing bestowed on the soil is be-
ing Transmitted into untold wealth"

CONFERENCE ENDS
At GREENV|LLE
TWO REMARKABLE ADDRESSES
ARE DELIVERED AT THE
CHARITY MEETING.
MANY CHILDREN WHO TOLL
Miss Jean Gordon and Dr. Owen r.
Loveloy Gave Very Interesting
Talks to This Worthy Gathering
Many Attended the Meetings.

Greenville.-The fourth annual ses-
sion Of the South Carolina Conference
Of Charities and Correction came to
q close in the lecture room OF the
Central Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation building following the deliver
ing Of two remarkable addresses, one
by Miss Jean Gordon, president of
the Southern Conference on Woman
and Child Labor, and the other by DR..
Owen r. Lovejoy, secretary Of the Ma
tional Child Lazor committee. The
former Is from New Orleans and for
years has labored in Louisiana in be
half OF working women and children.
DIR. L<,vejoy, comes from New York
city and his given years OF his life
to doing for women eHS children OF
the North what Miss Gordon has been
accomplishing for the women and chill
dren CT her state. The remark was
made that II the people Of Green
vile, generally, knew what was In
store for them in the addresses by
Miss Gordon and DR.. Lovejoy there
would not be found an auditorium in
the city sufficiently large to hold the
numbers that would flock out to hear
them. The statement not only turned
out To be true. as will be borne out
by the several score who heard the
speakers. but there we're those there
who were Of the opinion that should
the speeches have been made in the
open air lot sufficiently large to hold
the crowd would have been difficult to
hnd. Justice to the addresses cannot
be done within the small confines OF
q newspaper report, and yet is out Of
the question to reproduce their re
marks in their entirety.

OUTLOOK FOR CUBA
APPEARS BRIGHTER
POPULAR FEELING HAS RISEN
FROM SOMETHING OF oIsPAlR
TO CONFIDENCE.
THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
In Taking Office General MenocaI VIII
Have Advantage Of Friendly House
and Senate.-Thlnk Days Of Uprls-
ing in Cuba Are Past.

Havana.-Within few weeks pop
ular feeling regarding the political
situation has risen from something
bordering on despair to confidence.
The outlook for the republic OF Cuba
appears brighter than for many years.
The presidential election looked for
word to with apprehension passed
without violence and there is grow
ing disposition in all quarters to ac-
cept the verdict as the honest express
sion of the majority. Those most dis
appointed have vented their feelings
In threats that were never taken very
seriously, and now seem inclined to
accept the new order of things philo-
sophically.
The attitude of the Liberals has
summered down to proposition to
attack the legality of the elections on
the ground of fraud, upon the con-
vening of the National Liberal Assem-
bly, November %. When that day ar
riyes it is probable the question will
be quietly shelved and that DR.. Alfre'
do Zayas will find himself engaged IN
a fight with Gen. Jose Miguel Gomez
for leadership of the Liberal party,
the President having let 1t be under
stood that he has no intention OF re-
firing from active political life on the
expiration OF his term, and that 1t is
his ambition to lead the Liberals to
victory in the presidential campaign
OF 1916.
In taking Office General Menocal
will have the inestimable advantage
of friendly Senate and House, He
will have the aid Of the better ele
ment throughout the island and the
personal counsel Of many distinguished
Cubans.
He also will have the loyal support
Of any army organized, uniformed
equipped and armed like American
regulars and drilled by American Of
ficers which has so won the respect
OF the people that many are conyinc
ed the days of armed uprising in Cuba
are past forever.

q Killed. q Injured in Wreck.

Norlina, N. .C.-Eight trainmen were
killed and three severely injured
when two Seaboard passenger trains,
running at high speed, crashed head-on
seven miles north of here. No pas
sengers were injured. The trains met
as the southbound No. 81 was coming
out of long curve in deep fill and
both were running full speed. The
crash was terrific, both locomotives
being totally demolished. The fact
that only three coaches were demolish'
ed and there were no passengers in
these is considered rmarkable. Engi-
neer Beckham of the north-bound train
is thought to have misread orders TO
meet No. 81 at Granite, less than a
mile from the scene Of the wreck.
