TWO TARS dashed
TO BROKEN MASTs
joasting Vessel Stranded OF
Virginia Coast, Washed By
Seething Combers.

Norfolk, Va. Nov. 4.-With two Of
her crew dashed to the rigging and
others undoubtedly lost, IN i'll fated
steamer lies today stranded three-quar-
tiers of a mile southeast OF the new
Inlet life saving station, being battered
to pieces in a 38-mile gale. Lines have
peen shot from shore over the ship.
but the W men appeared to be too
weak to seize them.
Late today one of the men in the
rigging of the schooner. struck by q
mountainous wave, dropped into the
ocean and persisted. His sole surviving
mate, almost dead from exhaustion,
still chung to the rigging. The schooner
was being pounded to pieces. Life
savers are awaiting their opportunity
to launch a boat.
The unknown ship must have been
caught and driven or the reefs by the
terrible gale that swept the coast
about Hattaras asst night and tried
the resistance of heavier craft. Many
other small ships must ave suffered.
Ship careens Wildly.
The lookout OF the New Inlet Life
saving station. patrolling the beach
at dawn, sighted the wreck struggling
under the crashes Of the giant combers
which swept her n threatened to
send her ashore in bits. The tail end
50 miles ar hour kept the wreck
shrouded most of the time behind a
curtain Of waves and spray, hut
through glasses the life ~avers could
see two forms, evidently men, dashed
to the masts Of the ship, which were
dipping and STOPPING under every as
sault of the sea. Below them no hui
man being could be seen.
Lie savers could not even launch a
boat In tho heavy surf which pounded
down on the beach and the best that
could be done was to shoot a line.
From the shore the two figures dashed
but they did not grasp the line which
repeatedly was shot within their reach.
It appeared they were so weakened
they could not take the aid sent out
to them.

TURK empire NOW
MAKES LAST STAND
lnly Two Lines Of Weak Forts
Stand Between Power and
Complete Obliteration.

London, Nov. 4.-Only two lines OF
forts, both known as T~chatalja, one to
the northwest of the fortified city of
Adrianople, and the other stretching
across the peninsula outside of Con
stantfnople, now stands between TuE-
key and the total oblfteration of her
power in Europe. On neither of the
ines of forts can much reliance be
placed in view Of what has happened
at other places supposed to be strongly
fortified.
There seems now to be no escape for
the Turks. The Bulgarians are follow
ing up their successes with a dash that
surprises the world. They are now en-
deavoring to get a force Of their troops
from Servia between the routed Turk
ish army under Nazim Pasha. and the
Tchatalja lines. h move would full
fill the two-fold purpose of putting an
end to all Turkish resistance and stop
ping the defeated and maddened Otto
man soldiery from reaching Constan-
tinople where their arrival is much
feared.
>Pian Of BuIsars.
If the Bulgarian's plan succeeds they
are likely to go on to Constantinople,
where they will dictate their terms of
peace.
They are not likely, however, to stay
In the capital. There Is a Bulgarian
legend tina any nation occupying Con-
stantinople is certain to be in per-
petual trouble with its neighbors.
What the Bulgarians always have
aimed at is the occupation Of the prov
ince of Adrianople, which comes down
to a line between the Black sea and
the sea of Marmora, near the base of
the peninsula.
The Turkish troops might have found
a way of retreat toward the port of
Rodosta on the sea Of Marmora, but
this is now occupied by the Bulgarians.
Over 10000 Turkish wounded are re-
ported to nave arrived already at Con-
stantinople.

Entire Virginia Court Wiped 0ut by
Cowardly Assassius

HillsYiile, Va, March Id. In a
flame of unprecedented cutlawry
the entire human fabric of the
Carroll county court was wiped
out today by assassination just as
Judge Thornton Massie had sem
fenced Floyd Allen to prison for
aiding in the escape Of a prisoner.
Two of Aliens brothers and sew
eral of their friends opened fire
with revolvers. Judge Massie
fell dead on the bench, at the
first volley. Then the weapons
were turned on the prosecuting
attorney, William Foster, and he
sank down with a bullet in his
brain, death being instantaneous.
Sheriff Lewis Webb was then shot
dead before he had taken ten
steps. Several jurors were hit,
one being probably wounded fat
ally. Miss Nancy Ayers, aged
10, bystander in the courtroom,
died Friday of a wound received
during the fusilade.
A posse of citizen Immediately
started in pursuit of the raiders
and after days chase through
the mountains captured Sidna
Allen at the end OF a hard fought
battle in which Aliens wife was
killed. The Governor has offered
large rewards for the capture of
the gang, and it is thought that
with their leader in Jail, it will
not be long until the assassins are
brought to justice.
