new system Of writing has been i'm
troduced into Turkey, which Is now

Turkish writing has been an accom-

followed agriculture and LETT business
to the hands ~of the educated Armen-

ography, with three separate and dis
tinct signs for each sound, according
to their position. in theSword written.
Like stenography, it is necessary to
know the word Alright first in order TO
read itscorrectly. To understand It's

DR.: DARLINGTON
Makes a Plea for the Churchto
Have the Eyes and Hearts
of the Son of God.

A good-sized audience greeted the
Rev. q. ". w. Darlington, D. D., at
st. Paul's Methodist Episcopal
church, South, yesterday, and the
sermon fully met their expectations.
Or. Darlington preached from Mat
thew 9:27-2s. His sermon was elo-
qrent and impressive 1t was the
same old truth presented in a little
different way. The message was q
plea for the church to have the eyes
and heart of the Son OF God, eyes to
see the harvest and hearts willing to
consecrate all to helping garner It.
The doctor said that In the West
ern Virginia Conference he could find
twenty-five bright young men who
would gladly give their lives to thu
work Of the ministry, but who did
not have the money with which to ed
ucate themselves. Six young men
are going to enter Morris Harvey Col
lege this year whose expenses will be
paid wholly or in part by contribu-
tions raised by this faithful servant
of the church. =. - -; :. = :.

LONDON, July 27.-Glimmers Of
hope hickered in the darkened skies
of European politics today and the
wish was general that the efforts OF
the great European powers to avert
a clash OF arms, which might involve
many nations, would be successful.
While all the powers were preparing
for possible eyentualities, their
statesmen were endeavoring to bring
together the governments at issue
with q view to mediation.
At the Servian legation here the
view was held that some improve
ments had taken place In the situation
and this was attributed to the in
fuence exercised by Russia.
Alexander Georgeyitch, the first sec
retary, said:
t.We have complied with everything
that does not impair our sovereign
rights. We hope that Austria will
recognize that consideration is due to
an independent state and SO avert
war. II, however, Austria wants a
war, she will have seen that we are
prepared to- accept It in the interests
of our state"
: The fact that Austrian ambassadors
abroad were willing to- discuss the
points at issue with foreign govern
ments led to the belief that an outlet
from the deadlock would be found.
The stock market of the European
capitals still displayed a panicky feel
ing, although It was not as pro-
nounced as on Saturday.

practical head asserted itself; his
forehandedness and thrift, demanded
the floor. He laid aside his passion
ate political ambitions for the once,
and got on and looked at the situa-
tion from distance and from all
angles. There's no blufing about
the professor, he's a cinch player, and
his creed is bird in the hand Is the
noblest work of the Lord.
Sc he decided to play 1t safe.
With all the trouble his nomination
had caused, his chances of winning
as he had previously viewed them
had shrunken, decidedly so; his de-
feat wouldn't strengthen him as a
gubernatorial contender two years
hence, as defeats weaken men in pol-
itics; Chiffon would be a candidate
in 1916 to succeed himself, and hav-
ing troubles and plenty OF them of
his own at that time, could he and
would he try to make good the prom
ise to Hodges; would Watson o. K.
Clem Shaver's promise or would he,
in the stress Of adverse circum-
stances to Hodges in 1915, disavow
1t, step out from under, and swing
on to some other candidate likely to
be more popular with the party
rank and file at thit time?
Thus, the line OF reasoning, ~and
the plan evolved to procure a life
preserver nearer at hand than two
years from now. How this was done
has been explained. Hodges has a
promise now that he holds to be as
good as President Wilson's word can
make it-and that is as good as a
government bond. Here Is a prom
Use that can be cashed in Just as soon
as Howard Sutherland's 1914 plural-
ity is determined next November, and
the usafruct from the transaction
will equal in income, II not in honor
and prestige, the university presl-
dency which his willing entrapment
by the party bosses compelled him to
relinquish.
Hodges's nomination, outside Of a
decidedly restricted Democratic
group which helped to bring 1t about
is not popular with the Democratic
members of the state colony here
hut that is another story, as Kipling
says, which will follow. Why it
isn't, will be SO apparent to the pub
lie that 1t will wonder why 1t didn't
see that phase of 1t before. But that
later.
In the meantime, and in conclu-
sion, college professors, like clergy
men, newspaper correspondents and
other good people, have been ac-
counted poor business men from
time immemorial. Mr.. Hodges. It
must be admitted. Is an exception to
the general, rule. - Z: 5.

foreign office today set forth the
Austrian view Of the Servian reply.
demanding the secession Of the PAN
Servian agitation and the punish
ment Of those concerned in the assas-
sination Of Archduke Frances Ferdi-
nand. The Communication also gives
the reason for Austria's dissatisfac-
tion with Sefvia's reply. It follows:
THE object of the Servian note Is to
create the false impression that the
Servian government Is prepared in
great measure to comply with our
mand.
GAS a fact. however, Servia's note
is filed with a spirit Of dishonesty
which clearly let It be seen that the
Servian government ds not seriously
determined to put an end to the cul-
pable tolerance 1t hitherto has ex-
tended to intrigles against the Aus
tro- Hungarian monarchy.
