Tfs rewhAsBcs gf michaei Higgins of ile West Broad Etrvet was entered by burglars Tuesday night, the Hig- gins family being at their Pleasant View cottage for the summer. Mrs William Cresebro, a neighbor noticed thst some of the window shades were raised in the Higgins house and tele- phoned the fact to Pleasant View,
 hfrs Higgins came to her Broad Btreet home and found that burglars had Rafned entrance to the home by cutting away a wire screen and ra1s- ing the pantry window and that every room in the house had been ran sScked.

 At a meeting of forest fire wardens held at Chepachet Tuesday by ar rangement of state commissioner of forestry Jesse B. Mowry, the begin ming of plan for chain of lookout stations to discover and prevent forest fires in Rhode Island was made, and four cities were represented, Glocester, Scltuate, Smithfield and Cranston.
 Chopmist Hill, the place of the meeting, and the place selected for the erection of the first of the lookout stations, is the third highest point of land in the state, having an altitude of 730 feet, above mean high water. The highest point in the state is Dur fees Hill in Scituate which is S05 feet high. The latter point was not selected for the reason that it is all most on the Connecticut line, and Chopmist, being more nearly central, would cover larger proportion of the country.
 An organization of those present was effected, and an effort will be made to get the town councils of the adjoining towns to appropriate jointly the amount necessary to build the tower and to provide funds for the employment of a lookout watchman in accordance with the laws of the state bearing on the subject.

BULGARIANS FALL
| BACK TEN MILES
Turkish Losses Heavy During
TChatalja Engagement.

London, Nov. 22.-Reliable eye wit.
nesses OF the fighting on the Turkish
left wing at Tchatalja report that IL
appears to have resulted In the Bull
garians retiring along the road from
Papaz Burgas toward the village of
T~chatalja, according to the correspond.
ent OF the Daily News. One report
says they fell back ten miles.
1t appears, according to this CORE
spondent, doubtful whether the enthu-
siastic descriptions of the Turkish
press of victories on the right wing
are reliable. The Turkish losses here
have been admittedly heavy, but the
arrival OF troops from Syria has fur
ther strengthened the Turkish defense.
II also is evident that the supply and
commissariat difficulties of the Otto
man army have been somewhat re-
lieved.
The conclusion Is drawn in Con.
stantinople that it should now be
easier to arrange terms unless the
Turkish military authorities make the
mistake of supposing that a success

LIQUOR LICENSE
Law to Be Tested A Legal
Battle Before the SUI
preme Court

Bookings. Nov. GA legal battle
will be fought in the supreme court OF
the state in this term that involves the
very existence of the licensed liquor
traffic. Last spring, Il L. VanDyke,
treasurer of Bookings county, refused
to accept the license fees and issue the
usual county permits to the applicants
for saloon license from the towns OF
Elkton and Volga on the ground that
the license law of Sorth Dakota is
unconstitutional.
The saloon men. through their at
%torney, Olaf Eidam of this city. i'm
mediately applied for q writ of man
damus to compel the county treasurer
to issue the license. Hon. G. II. Sew
ard, judge of the circuit court at that
time, refused to express an opinion
upon the main issue until the supreme
court of the state should have oppor-
tunity to declare itself. So he grant
ed the writ of mandamus, and took
steps to insure against interjection of
legal tec~hnicality so that the case could
go before the supreme court upon the
main Issue, whether or not the state
legislature may license business uf the
character of the liquor traffic.
The prohibition state committee of
South Dakota, of which Quincy Lee
Morrow is secretary, is behind this
movement in the court for the over
throw of the saloon business in this
state. Mr.. Morrow has engaged as
counsel, Cheever & Cheever of this
city; J. Burritt Smith of Madison,
Wis and Wilson s. Doan of Indian
apolis. MIR. Dosn is the attorney who
argued a similar case before Judge
Artman, then IA circuit judge in Indi-
ana, that resulted in the famous Art
mar decision, that license laws are
unconstitutional. The liquor men
have engaged Olaf Eidum of this city
and a firm of prominent attorneys in
the Twin Cities. The case has attract
ed nation wide attention.
