Attempt by Turks to Recapture
Kavala Feared-Servia Held
to Be Land Greedy.

LONDON, September 26.-King Con-
stantine of Greece made preparations to-
day for a hurried return to Athens. The
Balkan situation is regarded by the Hell
lenic government as very dsquieting.
The king has decided to cut short his visit
to the seaside resort Of East Bourne, on
the south coast of England. and will
come to London tomorrow for special
conference with Sir Edward Grey. the
British foreign secretary.
All Greek officers have been recalled
for active service with their commands.
and many OF the regiments disbanded at
the conclusion of the campaign against
Turkey are now being remobilized.
The activities of the Turkish troops are
believed by the Greeks to foreShadow an
attempt by them to recapture the port

Admit Aspiring to Kavala.
Turkish officers now on their way from
Asia Minor to the province of Thrace
openly admit that kavala is the objec-
tive of Ottoman aspirations
In the meanwhile Premier Eleutherios
Nenizelos of Greece is trying to ferret
out Turkeys intentions by making a
demand at Constantinople for the pre-
else date which the Ottoman govern
ment purposes to resume the long in
terrupted peace negotiations.
Greek official circles deride Bulgarian
denials of the reports that common ac-
ton is contemplated by Bulgaria and
Turkey against Greece. Some officials
declare that they know negotiations to
that end have been started in Constan-
tinople.
Young Turk Party Blamed.
The Balkan crisis has been aggravated
by the apparent determination of the
young Turk military party TO profit by
the dissensions among the former allies.

Servia Believed Land Greedy.
4 In Vienna the belief prevails that
Servia is merely seeking an excuse to up
set the decisions OF the ambassadors
conference by seizing points not includ-
ed in the territory allotted to her.
In Athens many persons Believe that
Greece is on the verge of another war
with Turkey.
The whole Albanian trouble seems to
be due chiefly to arbitrary disregard
for the ambassadors conference and the
naturalization of the territories con-
cerned.

New Coal Tax.

The consumer of anthracite is

coal the price of which has already
been forced up by the ten per cent in
crease in pay granted to the mine
workers last May. The new tax would
be.two and half per cent OF the
value of the coaf at the point of pro-
duction, and would amount to about
ten cents a ton on the prepared sizes.
It lis said to have a good chance to
pass the Pennsylvania legislature
No state tax has been imposed on
coal since the Civil war, and the Coal
Trade Journal says in regard to the
proposal:
@No doubt if a tax should again be
imposed a separate charge covering
same would be noted on bills sent out
by the mining interests, and retailers
would be called upon to collect the
extra amount from their customers.

ject taken from the Blueneld Tele-
graph:
The other day at a public meeting
when the matter OF good roads was
being discussed we heard several
men say that the idea Of good roads
was being pushed by the people who
had automobiles, and intimated that
they would not build roads for au-
tomoblles to run over These men
were farmers and overlooked the
fact that they owned horses and
wagons which would ALEC wear out
the roads They also overlooked the
fact that the majority Of men who
will vote On the question OF a bond
Issue, and large majority, have
neither horses, wagons nor automo-
biles. and that if they so desired
they could snow under to crushing
tune any proposition for the issue
Of bonds that may be proposed. They
you'd have a better right to take
that ground than any man who
drives horses over the roads and
for whose benefit the roads are being
built has to object on account Of the
small number of automobiles there
are in this county. Then again an
other fact that seems to have been
overlooked is the liberality of the
incorporated towns, none of which
will get one foot of the roads within
their limits, but which are willing to
bear considerable part OF the ex-
pense SO that the county as a whole
will be benefited. Mercer needs
bonds and building system that Is
to get them, and that is by issuing
bonds and buildink system that is
modern in every respect, and it is
necessary that all other citizens take
a broad and liberal view of the mat
ter.

Destroys the Wooden Mills
Located at Webster
Near Grafton.

al
Word reached tals city last evening
that the wooden mill at Webster, be-
tween here and Grafton and about
.our miles from the latter city, had
been burned to the ground. The
burning of the plant also destroyed a
dwelling house nearby and repeatedly
set fire to general store, which was
finally saved by the hard work of the
spectators.
The wooden mill is, owned principal
ly by men Of Grafton, and is CON
sidered very valuable property, The
insurance is not known at the hour
of going to press.
The flames were discovered at
o'clock yesterday afternoon and ow-
ing to the intlammable character of the
structure and, contents the mill, was
soon mass of flames. AS there were
almost no means Of fighting the fire
the attention Of those present was dt-
rected entirely to saving adjoining
property, which was in great danger.
The mill and house were all that were
destroyed, There were thirty-two men
employed in the mill, and these were
thrown out Of. work. The building
will probably be rebuilt.
Fire is supposed to have originated
from a match concealed in card OF
wool.

Athletes and Health.

e I3.
University athletics and the con-
duct of Intercollegiate contests
should receive more serious con-
siderat.on from those who assume
responsibility for these features of
American college life. Too often
any criticism of long established
practices is resented or ignored be-
cause it would abolish or modify
some firmly implanted customs.
only after years of patient unremit-
ting effort has the plea for safe

reform which will soon evolve into
a nationwide plan OF rational cele-
bsatien. Persistent exposure of the
dpnsers of reckless football contests
with Their attendant fatalities can
not fail to bring welcome changes
sooner or later. This is a most
timely moment n which to in
augurate a campaign against athletic
recklessness.
Conservation is the Keynote in
campaigns of progress in all depart
!ments of national activity. Propa-
ganda for the conservation of health
and life is directly furthered by this
more general spirit of the times. II
college athletics of today are men
lace to health, they cannot escape the
attack of those who are alert for
every evidence OF human sextrava-
gance and waste. The enthusiasts
for physical education have hitherto
failed to emphasize the important
distinction between those strenuous
performances which tax the capa-
bilities OF the body to its utmost

letics"),. and that exercise of the
