I Wj ? BIG FLEET WEEK CHARLESTON HAS GALA OCCASION ALL THIS WEEK. ? GREAT MILITARY PARADE The Oitj By the tk? lkilng Herself lVoed Through Her Hpleiidid K11taiameut of the Bailors and Other Visitors Within Her Gates to See America's Finest Fleet. Field and track day for the enlisted men 01 the Atlantic fleet and premium day at the lair wore the main celebrations of Wednesday with the brilliant naval ball that night at the Charleston navy yard and the openlug of the "fashion show" in the decoration of the windows of the King street stores. The enlisted men had their usual daily matinee at the Victoria theatre, but the football games w?r? not played on Wednesday, on account of the Hold and track events, which had boon arranged for their sport and entertainmont. The award of honors interested the exhibitors especially at tho fair groun.is and with the increased crowds coining in for the colouration, mu unniuanw Showed a big gain over the previous : attendance. While an extended pro- < pram me of amusements and entertainments are in progress in Charles- i ton, the naval vessels have also begun t<? entertain, and there are morning and midday luncheons, afternoon teas and night suppers being given on the big floating palaces. The navy yard ball Wednesday night was one of the big functions of the numerous entortainments in honor of Commander-in-chief Osterhaus and other officers of the Atlantic fleet, and it was given on a scale surpassing anything of the kind, attempted at Charleston before. While the ball was given at the navy yard and under the auspices of the Charles ton yard officers, it was a city function, and necessarily the attendance was largo, taring to some extent tho capacity of the big building which Is used for this purpose at the government plant. As usual the building was converted from a work shop into a magnificent ball room in which tho electrical effects proved a feature. The music and supper were in keeping with the splendid atraction. The Dlggest Clay was inurauay, when with stirring martial music by many bands, flags flying, the glitter of the gold and brass of the uniforms and acoutrements of many commands made to show in sharper contrast with the loss showy service dress, the largest and most spectacular military pararde which has ver marched the streets of Charleston marked the great land and naval parade, one of the special features of Fleet-Fair j week. In the parade werem-etetaoii ed the entire fighting force of the nation, in tho battalion of four companies of the United States artillery corpfc, the marine and blue jackets from the three divisions of the Atlan-! tic fleet, two regiments of national guard of South Carolina, throo divisions of the South Carolina battalion of the naval militia and tho reserved military commands of tho city pf Charleston, making up a splendid! military pageant which was reviewed by the ranking officers of the navy, Mayor Grace and other specially Invited people of distinction at Marlon Square, as the procession moved UP King street. It was a great parade. Nothing like It has ever been seen in Charleston, and thousand? of people linod tho route of march, assembling an hour before the time of passing of the troops in seeking vantage j>ositloii to see the procession. It was an en-l thusiaatic crowd which saw the soloessiop m m li prol tori u tw gu au d t-a Dot*. L I- .. J diors arid tho Beatnen mnrcn u> mm frequently along the route, the pent up admiration of the crowd gave vent to Its enthusiasm with loud applause, drowning the stirring music and the steady tread of the soldiers as they moved with precision through tho crowded streets. It would seem a difficult, task to marshal Into marching order more than 7,000 men, hut to tho military men, It was a comparatively easy task. The various organizations wore assigned positions In advance of the time fixed for the parade to move off and when Brig. Hon. Wylie Jones ordered "Forward, March," tho whole procession moved as one man, with the organizations turning into position and following the marching order at proscribed places. The landing of the several thousand men from the ships for participation in tho parade was of itself an interesting sight and gave to those who observed the operation an insight Into the readiness with which large numbers of men can he landed from naval vessels. The vessels put out several launches with big tows and hundreds of men were moved from each ship in a few minutes The officers came with the men and as quickly as the boat loads were landed lit nier 11, tho men formed In march frig order and moved off to their place of asemblv on oast Battery. Bear Admiral Wlnslow, who had boon tendered the command of the whole parade, as grand marshal, preferred to command simply the naval brigade, with MaJ. Catlln In command Of the marine regiment. A company of marines were furnished by each fthtp to this regiment. There was no Bhortnpe of music With the many hands which were In Ifne. starting with the United States artillery hand, two National Guard hands, four naval bands, the naval ptflftia band and the band of the ca? dot eorpa. The flags were draped with crop* and on the sleeves of the (formf of the army and naval otT\op* pad P the hlki of their Mrordi BRYAN TO BE FOUGHT TTIK COMMONER MAY REOOMK A REAL STORM CENTRE. J Clark Will Align Himself with Men Who Have Fought Hryau Because ^ of Ills Action at Baltimore. A Washington dispatch says Democratic leaders admit that there is bound to be a fight between the Bryan and anti-Bryan men in Washington early in the Wilson administration. They are fearful it will interfere in the party's legislative program, and probably involve President Wilson. The certainty of trouble among the Democratic uational leaders has bepn emphasized Rlnce the arrival in Washington of Speaker Clark and William J. Bryan. Mr. Bryan has made It plain to his * 11 * 4 ' * lo lila nn rtmca f r\ roiloworu uitn it id mo t,i. . ,v, take a lively Interest in the legislative program and to make certain, so far as It Is possible for him to do, hat the party lives up to the pledges of the Baltimore platform. On tho other hand friends of Speaker Clark and Leader Underwood have caused it to be made known that the Democratic party in the house is competent to manage its own affairs without the assistance or advice of Mr. Bryan. Democratic loaders have felt it in their bones ever since tho election of Governor Wilson that Mr. Bryan would follow a course that would compel the new president to take sides either with or against the Nebraskan. Speaker Clark, embittered by Bryan's opposition to his presidential candidacy at Baltimore, will, it is known, in tho future alien himself in the house with men who have fought Bryan for years. Just how President Wilson will be able to steer clear or the factionalism in his nartv is a matter of conjecture at Washington. Many public men at Washington. Republicans as well as Democrats, believe that when Governor Wilson gets in tho White House ho will find himself in much the same situation that confronted President Taft, when he succeeded Colonel Roosevelt. Mr. Taft owed his nomination to Colonel Roosevelt, and as events have since shown, Mr. Roosevelt expected to be consulted by his successor. In selecting bis cabinet Mr. Taft picked a number of men who were regarded by Colonel Roosevelt nnd bis friends as "reactionaries." The dissatisfaction developed at once, and u ^^ i/-?n. hnfnr-o Colonel Roosevelt was In private bitterly criticisin I ? 1 I (I ?< II f 'In ft CHILI) ATK JIM SON WEED. ?

Lavender, hay been at the point of death for two days as a result of oating jimson weed. Wednesday morning the little girl was out in the yard, about 11 o'clock, with several companions and a short timo later she was suddenly seized with the illness. At 3 o'clock she became unconscious. Dr. J N. Nesbiti was hurriedly summoned and worked all night long over the little girl. Thursday afternoon she partially regained consciousness and the physician states that in all probability she will recover unless some complications set in. Mr. Lavender, who makes his home in Newberry, was telephoned of the serious nature of the little girl's illness and arrived in the city Thursday morning. * BURNED IN NEGRO'S HOUSE. + Man Found Dying With Clothes Saturated With Oil.

HITS TURKEY HARD SERVIANS CAPTURE M UN ASTIR WITH GARRISON iVRECKS TURKS HOPES ^ni<l to lw the Most Important Victory Vet (iained Over the Turkish Army, As it Wrecks Its Hopes of {Successful KesistaJice Against the Victorious Allies. A cable dispatch from London says ny Idea that the Turkish governnent may have had of benefitting by ontinued resistance in the Turkishdalkan war must be shattered by vlonday's news of the fall of MonasAr. In the capture of that important own the Servians took, three pashas, Deluding tiie couiniander-in-chief, i^ethi Pasha, 50,000 men thus achieving the greatest individual success ol lie war. Monastir was the second city of mportance in European Turkey. It was Turkey's stronghold in Macedonia, and by its downfall Macedonia > n cm /\ n nmn nl aIhI ir 11 r\ ?? 11 ? lr ( ri It |;aop^t> w u l \ji i ui iviou liaiuls. What parts the Greeks played In he capture has not yet been ascertained. It is known that the Greek irmy was marching to the assistance of the Servians and it is supposed that the Greeks were able to cut off the Turkish retreat towards the south. The Servians naturally could be elated at this victory, which outshines the capture of Salonki and .mist have a great moral effect on the future course of the war. Another of the strange silences which have been characteristic of :his war appears to have fallen over Constantinople, from which city brief dispatches have been received telling of the resumption of the Tchatalja battle and that the sultan has made a fresh personal appeal to the European sovereigns to Intervene for the termination of the war. Quite as little may be expected to come of this appeal as of the previous attempt at mediation by the powers. With cholera and typhus raging within her demoralized army and a powerful enemy hammering at the gates of the capital, Turkey must again appeal to the allies for terms. Undoubtedly the object of the commanders in ordering the attack on Tchatalja lineR was to compel this course. It seems Incredible that Bulgaria for the mere glory or triumphal entry into a city she does not desire to possess should wish to take her army into disease infested zones. Turkish reports, even the official dispatches, of the operations have been so unreliable throughout that little attention can be paid to the statements regarding the Tchatal'a battle issued at Constanstinople Sunday and Monday. The operations probably was little more than an ar'illery exchange, which all armies use locating his batteries. As the effect of the victory at Monastir will be to stiffen the Servian government in resisting Austrian pretensions the consular troubles at Prisrend and Mitrovitza are breeding a dangerous spirit of ill feeling between Austria and Servia, which i9 little calculated to favor diplomatic negotiations. The newspapers of both capitals reflect this feeling. No news has yet reached Vienna of the Austrian consul at Prisrend. The Servian government has declined to comply with Austria's request to allow an Austrian representative to go to Prisrend to make inquiries, and piactically ignores Austria's protests. The Austro-Servian question is less disquieting except for the attitude of the press on cither side and for the action of the Servians in intercepting the reports of the Austrian consuls in Albania. Acting on the recommendation of her ally. Paly, Austria is said to have modified her demands and no longer objects to the construction of a railway from the Danube to the Adriatic sea. On the other hand Great Britain Russia and France are counselling moderation to Servia. The latter siill talks of taking one or more ports i on the Adriatic but doubtless in tin ' <.? u tvin 1 i<?ton tf? the advices of h<" friends and accent some comnromlso Nogotiations for an armistice hnv?

He Took a Sheep's Leg and Made Neve Ariu for a Man Who Had Lost One of His. A New York dispatch says at the Harlem Hospital there is a patient -4 who has a new arm made from a sheep's leg. This sounds remarkable even in this age of medical marvel. It is one of the wonders performed before the delegates of the Clinical Congress which as been in session there for the past week. The operation was performed by Dr. Walter Ambrlckner. Just why a sheep's leg was chosen for substitution in the place of a decayed bone in the man's arm map not be clear to the layman, but It Is to the surgeons. The leg bone of a Bheep they say has the right knitting tissues and flexibility and in format tion lends itself to replacement in tha human arm. The leg was amputated from the sheep early Thursday morning, remained in a solution twenty hours after being scraped and was carefully treated before long being ready to bocoine part of the human frame. Every particle of the decayed bono in the patient's arm was carefully cut away, leaving a gap into which the sheep's bone was dove-tailed, then fastened with sterilized wirenails. The fleshy portion of tho nrm, which was sliced open, will ho kept so for two or three davs, until there is no doubt of the bones knitting properly. Then the slit will be sewed up and in a couplo of weeks Mr. Patient will have an arm as good as new. There was exhibited at the Harlem hospital a most remarkable case of surgery. The patient was a woman who had fallen four floors down a circular stairway and crushed her face beyond all recognition, fracturing many hones. I)r. II. J. sauffer. a surgeon-dentist, reset the broken bones and wired the jaws together and today thejiatient hasn't a blemish on her face. Dr. Kauffer, who is a consulting surgeon at the hospital, also gave a demonstration of wiring broken jaw bones. He exhibited one patient who had just broken his jaw, but could eat without any trouble, whatever. MMIt. WILSON" MOST TITLE. ? President-Elect Prefers to be Addressed in That Manner. Woodrow Wilson looked over hi* mail Monday and found that people were addressing him In seven differ- ^ ent ways. First, there was "Got. Wilson," also "Dr. Wilson" and "Prof. Wilson" for his term university connection then were "His Rxcellency, President Wilson," an i "Ti? Rxcellency, Gov. Wilson". Last, but best liked of all by him, was plain "Mr. Woodrow Wilson". "I would rather he called 'Mr. Wilson' than anything else," be said; "'President-elect' is too awuwnrd a mouthful.
