WASHINGTON Nov. 5.-Marshall Foch has been authorized by the United States and the allies to receive representatives of the German government and to com- municate to them the terms of an armistlce.
 The German government is so informed Ill note handed to the Swiss minister here today by Secretary Lansing.
 The text of Secretary Lansings note follows:
 II have the honor request you to transmit the fol lowing communication to the German government:
 " In my note of October 23, 1918 advised you that the president had transmitted his correspondence with the German authorities to the governments with which the government of the United States is associated bei gerent with the suggestion that those governments were disposed to accept peace upon the terms and prncples m dcated their military advisers and the military advisers of the United States be asked to submit to the associated against Germany the necessary terms of such armstice would fully protect the interests of the peoples involved and insure to the associated govern men the unrestricted power to safeguard and enforce the details of the peace which the government had agreed provided they deem such amistce possible from the military point of view.
 To Define Freedom of Seas
 1.-The president is in receipt of memorandum of observations by the allied governments this cor reSpOndence which is follows
 'The allied governments have given careful con sderaton to the correspondence which has passed be- tween the president of the United States and the Ger man government Subject to the qualifications which follow they declare their willingness to make peace with the government of Germany on the terms of peace laid down the presidents address to congress of January, 1918, and the principles of settlement
  point out however that clause two relating to what usually described the freedom of the seas is open to various interpretations some of which they could not accept. They must, therefore reserve to them selves complete freedom this subject when they en- ter the peace conference
 Further in the conditions of peace laid down in his address to congress of January S. 191S the pres dent declared that invaded territories must be re- stored as well evacuated and freed, the allied gov ernments feel that doubt ought to be allowed to ex st as to what this provision implies By it they un derstand that compensation will be made by Germany for all damage done to the civilian population of the allies and their property by the aggression of Ger many by land, by sea and from the air.
 I am instructed by the president to say that he is 1 agreement with the interpretation set forth in the last paragraph of the memorandum above quoted further instructed by the president to request you to notify the German government that Marshal Foch has been author zed by the of the United States and the allied governments to receive properly accredited representa- tives of the German government and to communicate tC them the terms of an armstice
 Accept, sir, the renewed assurances of my hghes consideration.

Time For ualiiy;ng as Candidates in County Primary Expires at
 Noon Monday.

The period allotted by tue Jeffer- son county Democratic central com mittee for lndidatas for county of- fia'es to qualify will expire at noon tomorrow. All but three of those who have announced had paid their fees to County Treasurer J. R. Par sons, designated for this service by the county committee, yesterday, and the others are expected to do so to- morrow forenoon.
 A new candidate appeared yester- day in the person of w. w. Byrd, who announces for assessor, making four entries in this race-F. M. c"Sandy'O Reeves, Fred Rucker, the incumbent; c. P. Gould, and Mir. Byrd So far as could be learned yesterday, the line-up is about complete. and sur plise will be caused by any addition al entries.
 It is general yconceded that Sam F. VaulX. for circuit clerk, l.. T.. Gallee for county clerk. and J. R. Parsons, candidate for second term as treasurer, will not be opposed. It is known that aspirants' for public office considered entering the coun- ty clerks race, but decided against doing so, because of the belief that they wouldn't have chance" Ap- parcntly, Sam Vaulx is conceded such strength that none even considered contesting with him for the circuit clerks office, and seemingly the same view obtains as to Treasurer Parson sin his race for a second term.
 Dr. H. E. Williams in conceded the nomination for reelection as coro- ner, and thus far there has been no one to announGe candidate for sur veyor in opposition to Y. F. Sor- rells. When Sheriff Williams was disqualified from acting in the Clint Green case recently, Coroner Will Hams was called upon to serve as sherp'ff. He was complimented for the manner in which the discharged the duties of that offices

GRENADE PITCHING fAvORIIE SPORT
 OF FRINGE ARMY
Officers Encourage New Pas time of Troops and Many
 Acquire Great Skill.

French Front, March 31-(Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)- Throwing hand-grenades has become faverite sport among French in fantrymen and it's practice is greatly encouraged by the officers. Recoras are kept and competitions arranged among the men of the various units and rivarlry in skill has reached a high point. A good grenadier must be strong, accurate and quick. It has been found by the instructors that any man of normal physical capaGty may fulfill these conditions.
 The leading promoter of efficiency in hand-grenade throwing in ths French army is a naval man, Lieuten- ant Herbert, who even before the war was well known througout France as an expert on athletics. In fact, it was he who founded the University of Athletics in the vicinity Of Rheims, where toys were scientifically train ed in all branches of sports.
 Lieutenant Herbert has compiled records of long throws. Among them are many reports of remarkable ones, which are interesting to ball-players in the American army who after their training period is over, may find time to enter some of the competitions now being arranged for soldiers of all the Allied armies Some of the longest distances are:
 Private Lebrun of the 18th infantry regiment, 220 feet in one direction, z03 feet in the other direction, an av- craze of 211 feet inches.
 Private Bacnacou of the 18th infan- try regiment, 210 feet II ,;nches in one direction, POP feet inches in the ether, an average of 206 feet 9 inch es.
 The grenade thrown weighs pound and 2 ounces. In competitions two throws are made in opposite dir ections and the average distance is credited to the thrower. Thus no competitor obtains any advantage from the lay of the ground.
 Other competitions take account of the accuracy of the throw and of the speed with which the grenades are thrown. The best performance registered hitherto in this latter com petition is that of Private Abel, of the 49h infantry regiment who, in one minute, threw A grerades, with which he made 27 direct hits at dis tance of 75 feet on a target about feet high by feet wide.
