Large Party Greets Train.

A large party of Turkish officials and
journalists met the train at San Ste
fano. The reception here was almost
typically American in enthusiasm
Speeches of welcome were made; the
station platform was jammed with an
immense crowd cheering wildly and
waving hats and handkerchiefs; a brass
band tried in vain to make itself heard
above the din.
This was an earnest of the welcome
awaiting the train all the rest of the
way to Constantinople. All Stamboul
seemed to have emptied its houses to
line the railroad and to cheer and dis
charge fireworks.
Minister Talaat Bey. heading a depu-
tation of high officials representing the
government. and the army and navy
and representatives of the diplomatic
corps met the train at the Stamboul
terminal and delivered speeches of well
come addressed to the allied countries.
The arrival coincided with the big Mo-
hammedan festival of the prophets
birthday. The mosques were gayly illu-
minated and the streets were thronged.

falo prediction. Buffalo calls herself a
barometer of trade conditions. If the
mercury crawls high in the national
tube Buffalo is sunny and busy. If it
drops low Buffalo registers it. The i'm
portant fact is-according to Buffalo
that the pendulum here never swings
out of reason. She never looks forward
TO wildly good times. Neither does she
experience sadly bad times. In 1907
Buffalo met every pay roll in cash.
Other cities issued clearing house GER
tificates. A year ago other cities held
meetings to consider what should be
done with the unemployed.
"All right" said Buffalo. Lets
meet"
the situation it was decided that no
unusual measures of relief were need
ed. Very few more men were cut of
work in Buffalo than is the custom in
midwinter. when the lakes are frozen
over. No soup kitchens or blanket dis
pensaries were needed. Now that year
of most excellent business is sighted
ahead Buffalo is not planning for any
nivalS. Conservative. Buffalo is. Con-
servatively getting ahead all the time.
Never losing ground that she caEnot
easily make up.
Lessons of Diversity.
Part of this happy middle-o the
roadedness and most of her claims to
barometric Importance are due to the
diversity of Buffalo's industries. The
federal census bureau recognizes three
hundred odd industries Sixty per cent
of these Industries are represented in
Buffalo When the slump came they
did not all suffer at the same time.
This condition contributes to Buffalos
shortage on millionaires. There are
millionaires here. of course-ha -dly
town in the country is without some
one who will eventually give it a cast
100000 men to the 100000 of its pop
ulation than any other city in Amer
lea.
We still have some of the charac-
teristics of an old-fashioned American
village" says Buffalo. I'VE have lit
tie distressing poverty or distressing
wealth"
The tempered enthusiasm of Buffalo
has it's meaning for the remainder of
the country. So many trade nerves
here report upon trade conditions. 1t

think of Buffalo as foundry town, but
it's meat business overtops that of the
furnaces by 100000 a year. Flour

Mrs. Harry Kser Asks Alimony.

Justice Mccoy of the District Su

employee of the Treasury Department,
to show cause Friday why he should
not pay alimony to his wife, Lille

petition for maintenance filed by the
wife, through Attorney Martin J. Nc
Namara. Mrs. Kiser tells the court she
was married October s, 1912. and that
there are no children. Cruelty, deser-
ton and non support are alleged.

its merchants have awakened to eX-
port possibilities. Buffalo's claims to

The improvement began here about
midsummer, if an average of the re
ports he taken. The year 1914 had
started nicely. but when the war came
the slump hit Buffalo pretty badly. A
few war orders helped in the last two
months of 1914. In the early months
of 1915 the war orders helped more.
Business in domestic lines was run
ming 40. so so per cent of normal. Per
haps that early rise in the line of pros
perity was in part due to the dinner
the chamber of commerce gave in Jan

roads were invited to attend. Follow
ing our cheerful habit, every one was
throwing stones at railroad presidents
just then. They were being made to
feel that in some ill-defined way they
had broken our national plate.

FIRST BALKAN TRAIN
GETSA GLAD WELCOME
Constantinople Enthusiastic Over
Reopening of Railway Communi-
cation With Berlin.

CoNSTANTINOPLE. January II, via
London, January 10, 5:47 am. ode
layed).-Train communication between
Berlin and Constantinople was opened
this evening with the arrival here OF
the first through Balkan train. On
board were the presidents of various
German and Austria Hungarian cham
bers of commerce and other leading
Austro- Hungarian business men, Off
Gals, representatives and a party of
newspaper men from the Teutonic al
lied countries and the United States.
The arrangements for the passage
of the first train worked with smooth
ness. The absence of friction, which
in itself was the chief feature of the
trip. might, of course, have been ex-
pected between Semlin and Sofia and
Constantinople, where it was not in
terfered with by the regular traffic,
but the run through the fertile but
deserted Morava valley over well
ballasted roadbed, where every bridge
was in perfect order, made it hard to
believe that this part of Serbia had but
lately been the scene of desperate hos
tilities and that almost every bridge
and culvert, and literally miles of road
bed, had been rebuilt since the con-
clusion of the Serbian campaign.
Delay in Mountains.
Only on the short mountain section
between Nish and Prot, where the road
was carried under great engineering
difficulties through rugged gorges and
where the Serbs had time to carry out
thoroughly their work of destruction
in the early stages of their retreat,
was the running time at all slow. The
traffic departments caution was in
creased by a rumor that a band of
Serbs had planned to dynamite one
of the viaducts.
During the rest of the trip the train
ran virtually on the same schedule as
before the war.
Throughout Turkey the train re-
ceived a particularly enthusiastic re-
ception. Turkish troops and working
parties are camped in large numbers
throughout Thrace and the old battle
fields. DetachmeS:s of those drawn up
along the track at every station gave a

MADDEN HAD TO MOVE
His Incorporate Expressions Were
Not Relished by the People
of Newberry
Gainesville Sun)

News was received from NeWberry
Monday afternoon that L. A. Madden,
a Western Union Telegraph lineman,
had been requested by citizens to
leave town, and that the man, con-
cluding that discretion was the better
part of valor, had taken the hint and
gone away.
1t is said that Madden had express
ed his approval of the killing of Con-
stable Wynne, which unfortunate af-
fair has already resulted in the death
of six negroes, and the people were
not prepared to listen TO his intern
perate utteranees.
Madden had been arrested several
times by Constable Wynne, hence his
animus toward that officer who died
in the performance of his duty.
The people of Newberry are well
pleased that there will be special
term of court so that the slayer OF
Mr.. Wynne will have speedy trial
They wish to Sc the law take its
course.

KNOTT GAINED VOTES
IN PUTNAM COUNTY

Palatka, Aug. 22.-Pursuant to the
peremptory writ of mandamus issued
by the supreme court, the inspectors
and clerk of precinct No. 2, George
town, met here yesterday and re-
counted the ballots of the precinct
The corrected tabulation of the vote
cast in that precinct showed net
gain of eight votes for Mr.. Knott
This gain in the Georgetown precinct
together with the remaining precincts
of this county, gives Mr.. Knott gain
of twenty votes by the recount in this
county. The gain for Mr.. Knott in
the Georgetown precinct was due tc
the fact that the inspectors did not
correctly tally the second choice votes
cast for the respective candidates fol
governor when they made their first
returns.

JACKSONVILLE AS
A COTTON PORT

For a number of years George
Giles & Co., the Ocala cotton buyers,
have insisted that Jacksonville or
Tampa should be made cotton port
and handle the cotton grown in Flor
ida and nearby Georgia points. The
dream of Giles has materialized. He
was invited to Jacksonville few days
ago by some of the prominent busi-
ness men and shown the municipal
docks, warehouses and other facilities
which the city has put in to take care
of cotton and other products. Any of
our citizens visiting Jacksonville
should visit these institutions and see
the powerful congresses, which Giles
says are of the most modern type and
superior to any that he has seen in
Savannah, New Orleans and other
ports that he has visited.
Giles & Co. believe in Florida first
and will therefore do all in their
power to help make Jacksonville a
cotton port.
The Wilson-Mason Co. are the prin-
cipal cotton merchants. They have
the most improved facilities for TAX
ing care of this business and the indi-
cations are that they will be reward
ed with a splendid business.

EMERGENCY IS
NOT OVER
National Guard Will Remain on the
Border as Long as the Men
are Needed
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Aug. 22-The national
guard will be retained on the Mexi-
can border until it can be withdrawn
without endangering American lives
and property, said Secretary Baker
yesterday, in outlining the admins
tration's policy. The declaration was
made in letters written to persons in
many parts of the country who COM
planned that the troops were being
held in service after the emergency
had passed.
Secretary Baker said in one letter,
as soon as order on the border JUS
titles it the troops will be returned to
their homes. In the meantime it is
not possible for the department to say
how soon such a situation will arise,
although the Mexican situation is
much better"
The secretary declared that the
training the men were getting would
make them a real asset to prepared
ness.

MENDENHALL MAKING
THE BEST OF IT

The st. Petersburg Independent
says:
"That J. J. MendehaI1, who is per-
haps the most notorious prisoner now
serving a term in the state prison
is hard at work and is being shown
no special favors by the prison au-
thorities, is the assertion of Gus Bart
lett, drummer who arrived here this
morning.
''Mr. Bartlett said that yesterday
he was at the prison camp at Raiford,
Bradford county, where he saw and
talked with Mendenhall, and found
him in vigorous health. He was en-
gagged with several other prisoners, in
filling large silo with chopped corn.
Mendenhall's job was tamping down
the silage with heavy maui, which
he handled as if he were quite used to
that kind of labor
"Mr. Bartlett said that Mendenhall
wore shackles on his ankles, and was
the only prisoner he saw there who
was thus manacled. Evidently the
prison authorities are not taking any
chances as to his getting away. Men
denhall talked freely with Mr.. Bart
lett and said he was being treated
well, that he could not complain of
thing, so far as prison life went. He
was taking his punishment philisop-
ically. The hours of labor were not
onerous. The prisoners began work
early in the morning, but were allow
ed to rest during the hottest part of
the day, resuming their labor along
about the middle of the afternoon"
