TURKEY IS BEATEN TOMB MAIN ARMY IS DISAS OUSLY DEFEATED. W A FOUR DAYS BATTLE ?> Turkish Army Retreated Toward OociMtantinoplo After Its Crushing Defeat at Thrace, Bulgarians in Hot Pursuit and is Now Almost at the l>oor of the Ottoman Capital. A dispatch from Loudon says a four daji' battle in '1 hi ace has ended in the triumph ot the Bulgarian commaiiclor-in-chief, (Jen. bavoif, whose su-illlul strategy has prouably brought to a close the 1 ui Kisii-Baikan war and made it one of the shortest and most remarkable wars on record. A great Turkish army, estimated at over JduO,UUU men, has been defeated, and is In retreat. Constantinople is believed to be at the mercy of tlio victorious Bulgarian army and a council sitting at tbe Porte, is discussing the advisability of suing lo? peace. Such is (ho news whicn coiuew from Constantinople. It is only a fortnight since Turkey declared war. The first week of the campaign closed with the dramatic fall of KirkKillissch, fully revealing for the lirst time the disorganization, mad morale and inefficient commissariat of the Turkish army. To-day that army is defeated, routed within fifty miles of Constantinople and possibly its retreat within the Capital s line of defence is cut off. Only the briefest and vaguest accounts of tho great battle have yet been received, for the war has been especially remarkable in that not a single war correspondent has boon allowed at the front except in the case of tho little Montenegrin campaign against Scutari. Thus no independent personal narratives of the absorbing events have been possible, and the world has had to depend on biased official accounts provided by the respectable Governments or confused details supplied by woundod soldiers. Apparently Nazim Pasha has been f?nmnlntelv oul-manoeuvered by Sav oif's skill. The Bulgarian turning movement along the Black Sea coast uow appears to have been a feint, which Induced the Turkish commander to throw his main army to the eastward, to such effect that the Bulgarian force on this side had the greatest difficulty in holding the Turks in check. The Bulgarians gave away and thus enabled Nazim Pasha to report to Constantinople some success In this direction. In the meantime, however, Gen. Savoff hurled his great strength against the Turks' weakened left wing, which he crushed in at Luleburgas. The fighting along the whole front, which evidently has been of the most stubborn and determined character, was carried on day and night without intermission and both sides lost heavily. The capture of Nazim Pasha's headquarters at Tchorlu, to which town the defeated Turks retreated, has not as yet been reported, but Is hourly expected at Sofia. In this event the Turks will be forced within the defensive lines of Tchatalja, the only remaining fortified position protecting Constantinople.. It lies twentyfive miles to the northwest of the Capital. Adrlanoplo still holds out, but has lost 14s Importance now that the t 11 rUn have met their "Sedan" at Luleburgas. It is l)(?lieved a peace settlement will bo arranged either by the Porte suing for peace or through intervention, and an interesting question involving difhcult diplomatic problems will immediately arise as to the division of the spoils of war? a question concerning not only the victorious allies, but also Ttussia, Austria, Roumat hi and possibly other Powers, The campaign of the other Balkar states continues with the sucoo3f which throughout has attended them Scutari has not yet been captured hut Ipok has fallen to the Monteno grins. The Servians have taker Prisrond and Greece is occupying tin Island in Aegean, in addition to man; towns in Macedonia. The Powers fearing disorders and massacres ir Turkey, are hurrying warships to tin various ports of the country to pro fcect foreign residents. BLRA8K NAMES DELEGATES.

Some of the Things That Are Taught the Ladies und Others Who Will | take Time to Learn. The Spartanburg Journal says the best exhibit at the county Fair was i that of the Southern Railway. II was a great lesson for all house wives. Three young ladies made the visits of niany ladies more pleasant and instructive and themselves enjoyed the stay in Spartanburg. They are loath to leave litis city. When work is over, or when the j attention of all visitors at the building is attracted elsewhere, these la- 1 dies are among the interested onlook- < ers and are always in the best of humor. Miss Tutt told a good joke on 1 another member of the party. She said that a prominent Spartanburg man introduced his wife to one of the i young ladies and that little wifey did I not do a thing but turn up her little I nose and pass on. The young ladies 1 had a jolly laugh at this. This is just one of the little inci- 1 dents that make the exhibit so high- : ly interesting, instructive and entertaining. It is an education for the lillj -dallying house wife, who does not stop to think about how her kit- ' Mien should be kept. She does not know that there are a thousand and one little devices which will save no end of toil and trouble. To teach the people about the labor and time saving methods, the Southern Railway lias provided this excellent exhibit. it is In charge of E. E. Cole. M5, Tutt, Miss Mahler and Miss Woodlord are in charge of the domestic science department. Prof Niven is in charge of the horticultural depart-! mont while .Mr. Quinsley lias control oi! tlio dairying department. Miss: Tutt, who is a graduate of the Uni-i versity of Chicago and one of the most able domestic science teachers in the country talked interestingly to a reporter for the Journal. She said: i "The object of this exhibit is to! teach the people how to accomplish til? maximum amount of energy. We J have a well arranged kitchen, small in order to save as many steps as possible and we also have the littlel labor saving devices which make' cooking a pleasure rather than a drudgery. We save men work also, by showing the tireless cookers, thus reducing the amount of wood to be chopped. We also show the many uses to bo made of tho kerosene stove, and gas stoves in towns where gas Is available. Our demonstrations are to teach the ladies how to prepare the every day foods and we do not pay much attention to the fancy dishes, although we want to teach every one how to bo dainty and neat. We also give talks on the drinking cup and teach the ladies how to save labor by using paper handkerchiefs and towels, which are cheap and which do not require washing. We also dwell for a short time of what to do prior to the arrival of a doctor in case of an accident and teach all the simple things of life. "1 II 111 (161IgU It1 Cl IU Hiiy l II til ? Willi; II in every walk of life have shown much interest in our exhibit here and we hope we have taugh them something." Miss Mahler is from North Carolina. She is a personal friend of W. V. Richards, land and industrial agent of the Southern Railway and began this work at his request. She has become so much interested in teaching the people about how ir live better, that she has thrown aside her love of dances, parties, automobiles and is now the brighest ray of sunshine in the Southern's Exhibit, i She takes especial pleasure in talking to an interested woman individually and in arousing their interest in such i matters. Her home is in Raleigh and she is from one of the oldest North i Carolina families. Miss Woodtord Is from Richmond and has graduated at a domestic science school. She also likes to teach the ladles how to save i lal or and time and is wrapped up in her work. The Journal says these three ladles , made many friends here and were - much impressed with the fair. They i went from Spartanburg to Augusta, 3 where they will ho this week giving / their lectures and demonstrations at ? the fair over there. Next week the i Southern Railway Exhibit will bo at 9 the Orangeburg County Fair, and we - feel sure that it will Interest men and ladles. It is a very valuable exhibit) ?nd we nre elad tho neoplo hero will have the benefit of It. HECTOR BLAMES BLKASE. Say8 the Governor Had tho Officials * Arrested.

EAT DEAD HORSES RAW \ Panic Stricken Oflicer Tries t?> Abandon Wounded, but is Overawed by Doctors, and Many Women in the Train of the Fugitive* are Crushed and Suffocated. The flight of the Turks from Salonki seems to have been an awful afalr. The London Daily Chronicle's Constantinople dispatch of Novembm S says: "Saloniki lias been occupied by the Greek troops. Their approac). was attended by awful scones. Defore they entered the town the elements of disorder broke loose and a terrible massacre of tb a non-Moslem population took place. Shooting and looting were general. "The flight of Abdulla Pasha's army to Constantinople has been arrested by action of the Turkish Government. The Ministers mustered what raw levies the/ could and sent them to hold the roads converging on San Stefano and Slamboul. The survivors of Ablulla's force And themselves at bay, caught between the Bulgarian and Turkish forces. " ^ a 1 ^ 4 f 11,.. J. Do Dci u.'ii army an ivt-u <ti ^natalja utterly demoralized. The road from Choriu to Chatalja Is a mud track converted by ra.n into a quagn ire. >Many fugitives are frot-bltton w ind-blistered and in th>* 'ast stage of weariness and hunger. All are covered with mud from head to foot. "The horses which were killed or died from exhaustion have been eat en raw by the famished soldiers. Th< last train from Shorlu had to proceed with caution to avoid the decapitation of many soldiers who had fallen on the line. "The train was hastily filled with wounded. Women and children were also carried, as well as Abdul la Pasha's staff, foreign attachees and newspaper correspondents. Women were crushed and suffocated on tin terrible journey. The train travelled slowly and the fleeting soldiers clambered on it every few hundred yards. "So crowded was the train little of it was visible save the funnel of the locomotive. A staff officer got into a panic and gave orders to uncouple and abandon the carriages In which the wounded were carried, and the two medical officers In charge of the injured drew their revolvers and threatened to shoot the officer and the driver of tho train. <? mnnnn? /if thn loVOllpfl T*P uuun un. imvt- y i >..i v >v . v. volvors the officers surrendered, the carriages of the wounded were recoupled and the train resumed Us journey. "When the wounded men died during the journey their bodies were lifted out of the train and laid by the wayside, to give additional room to the living. "The Chatal'a road is an impassable morass. The Turkish Government is hurrying forward supplies and munitions. The weather is mild and dry, otherwise none of Abdulla's army could have survived.

When the Greeks took possession of the city they imprisoned ail the Pashas, officials and Turkish officers The Turks now ir captivity in Saloniki num^o** apo ? ? CHRISTIANS ARK MASSACRED. * Correspondent Writes of tlio Cruelties of the Turks. The Constantinople correspondent of the London Daily Chronicle sends the following: At any moment tno storm may break and involve us in the red ruin of a massacre and outrage. Soon Constantinople Itself will be surrounded. The last hours of Turkish ascendency over the "infidel", it i? feared, may bo dyed in blood, We [ had a foretaste of what is to rome in tho news from Rodosto. Thither camo bands of Naziras driven from Luleburgas by tho victorious Ihilgars. A scene of horrov rollowed. The town was given up to massacre, outrage. and pillage.

In others those who trusted to the sea found a merciful death beneath tho waves. Tho victorious ninrcYi or the Rulgarian army results in similar scenes wherever tho Turks anticipate ?he coming of the enemy.

W&99999999 THERE A It 10 TOO MANY CITIES. + Tliis and All Other Countries Need More Land Ilred Folk. IT. Rider Hogznrd, tho famous i , English novelist, says wtiat nil conn- ^ tries now re(itiire are not more towndwellers, but more land-bred folk. They require them for purposes of national health; they require them for developments of * neurotic age. Without an adequate supply of landdwellers to replenish and support their city populations, people must deteriorate and in duo course fall. I will go further, and repeat what I have said before In other books? that the retention or the peoplo on (lie land should bo the great, and even the main endeavor or the western nations. Nothing can make up for loss of them?no wealth, no splendor, no "foreign investments," no temporary success or glories of any kind. At any sacrifice, at any cost, all wise statesmen should labor to attain this end. The flocking of the land-born to the cities is tho writing on the wall of our civilizations. This T have soon clearly for many years, and if I needed further evidence of its truth, I found it in plenty during my recent researches into the socinl work of the Salvation Army, which brought me into contnct with thousands of waste mankind?tho human refuse of tho towns.
