CLEMENCEAU WILL INVADE WEST
Aged French "Messenger' Off for Chi
 cage; to Alter His "Plea."

New York, Nov. 26.-Georges Gle menceau, wartime premier of France, tonight turned westward in his tour as messenger from France to An,eri- ca"
 The private car "Bethlehem,9 the Tigers travelling lair, left tonight for Chicago, where it is expected to ar- rive shortly after toomrrcw after noon.
 The S1~year old statesman, after conferences today with E. M House, whose guest he is in America. left the East with plans for a changed tech nique in the accomplishment of his mission. For several hours today Clemenceau and House reviewed to- gether the effect of the speeches made so far. Just what changes in manner or material for future addresses re- suited from the conference was noc made known, but it was indicated by friends that the Tiger" acquiesced t. advice in regard to important changes of one kind or another.
 Early callers at the private car to- day were, Miss Anne Morgan, chair man of the American Committee for Devastated France, and Mrs. Norman Dike. Clemenceau received them with profuse apologies for the inconvenient location of the car--which was shunt- ed off to a siding in the station-and for an hour chatted with his guests.
 Late in the afternoon Clemenceau, unheralded, stepped from an automo- bile at the tomb of Grant on River side drive. Almost unnojiced at first, the party entered the edifce, and the former premier stood uncovered while a wreath was placed upon the sarco- phagus. By this tip.e the crowds had noted the visitor, and followed him to witness the ceremony.
 Clemenceau later wandered around the aquarium at the battery for an hour. He insisted upon seeing every variety of fish on display. and had a humorous word or two to say abou, nearly all of them.
 The tour of the city, his visit to Grants tomb, and the entertainment offered by the fish theater," left him in high spirits. He returned with his party to the private car shortly before the hour scheduled for departure, and demanded food. Friends who have accompanied him through his stay said he was in better health today than at any time since his arrival.

Texarkana, Nov. 26.-On Frida., night, at a negro festival on the old

 The shooting was not reported to officers here until afternoon yester- day. Sheriff Richardson went at once to the scene and arrested Will Burn ett at whose house the festival took place, and brought him here and plac- ed him in jail Later the sheriff and two deputies returned to the planta- tion and spent practically all last might working on clues which indicat- ed that another negro may have fired the shot which killed Nelson. They returned this morning, without mak- ing any additional arrests.

ALLIES TO DISARM TURKS
Wide Zone on Both Sides of Border
 to Be Stripped of Notifications.

Lausanne, Nov. 23.-Supported sol Iidly by the Balkan bloc, a secret sub- committee of the Lausanne confer ence, which has been examining the question of demilitarizing the Ottman frontier and Thrace, tonight practic- ally reached a decision to disarm Tu. , key in Europe.
 On recommendation from General | Weygand, Marshal Foch's chief of staff, it was agreed that a zone ap- lproximately 15 miles wide on both sides of the border, from the Black sea to the Aegean should be stripped of all Notifications and war material of every kind and no troop movement. allowed therein.
 This zone would include Adrianople and several other towns along the Ma ritza river whose uses as military bases, in the opinion of General Wey- gand, would be essential to the TurkJ if they ever should attempt offensive war on their neighbors in Europe. | This demilitarized strip would also include the strategic railway line from the Bulgarian frontier through Kara gatch to the port of Dedoagatch on the Aegean, thus providing Bulgaria with an outlet and preventing either side, in case of future wars from us- 1 ing for warlike purposes the sole means of railway transportation in the territory.
 With their frontier thus demilitariz- ed, the Turks would have Constanti- nople as their only military base in Europe and they would be separated from their Balkan neighbors by miles of unprotected and semi-desert ground.
 Although the decision was not re- ceived favorably in Turkish quarters it is believed that Ismet will bow to it in the hope of being able to secure compensation somewhere else, espec- ially since the big powers are unanim- ous in decision

lPoIitieal AdyertIsIngl


Notwithstanding the very small
amount of interest manifested by
the voters Of. the county as touching
the selection of candidates for the
various offices to be chosen in the
June primaries, numberSof voters
have asked me about the several
aspirants for the Office of solicitor
Of this judicial district. There are
few more important Offices to be
filed than this, and tits athealthy
state of public mind ifthere is real
interest in the selection of the most
competent person available for this
place.
The proper enforcement if our
criminal law is largely in the hands
of this officer, and those who favor
law endorsements and believe in
punishment for its violation should
use their vote and influence to select
one who will without fear or favor
prosecute the criminal docket.
Without any criticism of any OF
the several gentlemen seeking the
nomination, l believe the best inter,
ests of the law-abiding people of the
counties comprising the district will
be served by the selection of Mr.,
Gilbert H. Russell, of Scotland
county for this place. Mr.. Russell
is a young man of mature age, by
which mean that while he is past
fifty in experience he is still Wig
orius personality. He is an expert
enced lawyer, and with it all a
warm-hearted gentleman who, while
doing his best to uphold the majesty
of the law, would not be unjust to
the person he was prosecuting for
it's violation. | unhesitatingly COM
mend his candidacy to the favorable
consideration of my friends in the
district.
