TURKS INVADE BULGARIA.
Sofa Threatened by Four Armies and
ferdinand Appeals To Europe.

London, July 25.-Without declaring
war and apparently trusting that the
iealouses of the powers will prevent
any European interference, Turkey has
begun an invasion of Bulgaria. The
Turks have occupied and burned the
villages on the Jamboil road and ii is
reported have pushed their reeonnais-
sance as far as Philippopolis.
No information has yet been received
as to the strength of the forces which
have crossed the frontier. Probably they
are only comparatively small bodies Of
Enver Bey's cavalry. Some skirmshing
has occurred on the frontier, but SEEM
ingly the Bulgarians have offered no
serious resistance.
In Vienna it is reported that the
Turks have crossed the Bulgarian from
tier in three places, roughly coinciding
with the routes followed by the Bulgar
ians last October, namely by the Marit-
"a and Tundja valleys, as well as in
the direction of ,Iamboli.
King Ferdinand of Bulgaria has pro-
tested to the powers and appealed for
European intervention, but there is no
sign that Europe will take action. 1t
appears doubtful whether any armistice
will be signed at Nish until peace pre-
liminaries have been arranged. Greece
and Servia are both throwing obstacles
in the way of an armistiee while push
ing their attacks in the direction of So

RESIDENTS ARE FLEEING.
Because of the Looting of the City of
Shanghai.

London, July 25.-A Shanghai despatch
to the Daily Telegraph says;
'Looting has begun in the city and
the residents are fleeing. Many fires
Were caused by bursting shells. and sew
eral foreigners were wounded by stray
shots.
Shanghai is so full of refugees from
Marking and Kin kang that the people
are sleeping in the streets. A boatload
of southern deserters was sunk by the
gunboat fire. The northerners have oc-
cupied rebel fort near the arsenal"
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Morning Post expresses the opinion that
the southerners are not likely to repeat
their attacks on the arsenal, but will
abandon Shanghai, and that the revolu
tion will speedily end.
Shanghai July 25, a. m.--During
the past twenty-four hours the rebels
have made series of spirited attacks
on the arsenal but all of them have
been successfully repulsed, and the gov
ernment troops are so encouraged at
their continued success that they have
assumed the offensive and are forcing
the rebels back on Nantao. southern
suburb of the Chinese native city.
Admiral Tseng has formally warned
the Nantao Chamber of Commerce that
unless the rebels disperse, he will bonn
bard their position and the forts at the
mouth of the river, which are also IN
the hands of the southerners.

INCLUDE vENEREAL DISEASE.
Included in Those to Be Reported to
School Medical Inspectors.

Burlington. July 25.--Nenereal disease
has been included in the list of diseases
which may legitimately come to the at
tention of medical inspectors of public
schools in Vermont. In circular about
to be distributed by the state board of
health, the following new regulation is
announced.
Pupils suspected OF having contract
ed venereal disease, and thereby being a
menace to other pupils, shall be reported
by the teacher or principal to the medi-
cal inspector. who shall notify the par
ents or guardian that an examination
for ascertaining the presence of such
disease is necessary, but such examina-
tion shall not be made, except with the
consent of the parent or guardian, and
in his presence, if he so desires"
This applies, OF course, to schools hav-
ing a medical inspector appointed under
provisions OF the act of the general as
sembly in 1910 authorizing the school
directors of cities, towns and incorpor-
ated school districts to name such in
spectors.
Another new regulation made by the
state board provides that if a medical in
spector has reason to believe that the
sanitary conditions in or around a school
house under his supervision are not in
accordance with the requirements of the
state board of health, or that conditions
exist which are detrimental to the
health of the pupils and teacher. he shall
notify the local health officer, who shall
at once make sanitary inspection of
the school house and premises and re-
port the results OF the same TO the state
board of health.
Medical inspectors have hitherto been
required to enter in book kept for the
purpose the result of their examination
of all pupils made by them. In addition
TO this rule, it is now ordered that dur
ing tine month of july of each year the
inspectors shall report these records to
the secretary of the state board of
health.
The state board has also prepared
printed cards to be posted in public
places, forbidding the use of both the
public drinking cup and the common or
rollertowel in accordance with orders
already Published. These cards are to
hang in wash rooms ard near water
tanks or faucets.

TO PUT OUT $25,ooo.
Tenney Corporation Building Trans
former House at GraniteviIle.

Manager c. +. Millar of the Consoli-
dated Lighting Co. returned this after
noon from Graniteville, where he has
been inspecting the new transformer
house which the G. H. Tenney corpora
tion is erecting for its quarry service.
Before operations now under way on the
site of the old transformer house are
completed the Tenney corporation will
have expended the sum of $1,000 in inn
proving its power facilities at the quar-
ries. Work on the transformer station
is being pushed rapidly forward
The building is to have lateral dimen-
sions OF q feet, eight inches by 80
feet, eight inches, with an altitude of -
feet. The foundations are OF stone, the
walls of solid brick construction, with
cement floors and steel girders. Steel
window frames together with the other
indammable material used in the CON
struction viii make the building abso-
lutely fireproof in every detail.
An approximate reckoning OF the cost
divides the expense into $4,000 for the
equipment. In each instance, if the cost
deviates at all from these figures it will
exceed rather than fall short of the es-
innate, it was stated by the Tenney of
fcials to-day. The interior of the sta
tion is to be divided into two rooms.
one of which. to measure 20x27 feet, will
be used for the transformer equipment,
while the other, to be utilized as a
switchboard room, will have dimensions
of l3x27 feet. Provisions have been
made for adding an annex to the station
when occasion arises. When completed
the Transformers located at the now sta-
tion will furnish power for every patron
of the Consolidated Co. on either side of
the hill. The construction work is car
ried on under the direction of the Ten
ney corporation, although its compile
tion will see the structure turned over
to the Consolidated Co.

the plant. The writing was in Lithu-
anian and was translated by John Ro-
manus, the police court interpreter.
As yet there has been no serious dis
turbance about the factory when the
operatives go to work or leave, but the
police have more than doubled the
guard, five policemen being outside the
factory all day, while others guard the
building at night.

of strikers had conferred with Mr.. Cross
and that propositions coming from both

accomplishment of large work by Il
concern OF the size of the Snare & Triest

work will not be completed for more
than year just how long cannot be
determined. 1t depends upon too many
uncertainties, the nature of the rock, the
weather, the water in the river, and
more than all, upon the ice, which tears
out dams all along the rivers length in

LEFT SING SING TO-DAY
FOR AUBURN PRISON
Meanwhile Company of Ma
val Militia Stood Ready
to Protect Ossining

Ossining, n. Y. July 25.-Sixty con-
victs, the dregs of the New York City
criminal class, were taken from their
cells in Sing Sing prison to-day and
placed aboard train for the state pris-
on at Auburn. Because OF the recent
prison riots, each convict was heavily
handcuffed and shackled and chained to
his place in the railroad car, which had
been brought inside the prison enclo-
sure.
One hundred guards of the prison did
this work while in the state armory
nearby a company of naval militia
awaited the call to protect the town in
case the transfer of the convicts re-
suited in mutiny in the prison. The
train was heavily guarded to prevent
possible delivery of the prisoners by
their friends. A second detachment of
the convicts will be removed to Auburn
tomorrow.
The second fire of the week in build
ings Of the prison yesterday was fol-
lowed by strike of 100 convicts.
Threats that extreme measures would be
adopted induced the maleontents to re-
turn to their cells; but when darkness
fell last night the boots and ieers of
hundreds of eonvicts could be heard all
over Ossining.
The spirit of insurreetion that has
been evidenced for several days was in

pressed the opinion. He believed that
visitors have told the convicts that Gov
