Bulgars Want Greek Macedonia.
What (lie Pulgarians are really
after is possession of (ireck Fastem
Macedonia, which they have always
coveted. The gates to it have now
been opened by the Crocks them
selves and, with the Iervendl in their
hands, the rest lies at the mercy of
the invaders. The situation now is
that (ireck Macedonia has been sep
arated into I wo distinct parts. West
of the Struma it is under 1 lie allies'
military occupation, while the dis.
trict.s east of the river if they are not
under occupation by the Iiiilgarlans,
are under l heir influence.
Bulgars Spread Panic.
Xo Herman troops so far have
taken part in the Ilulgarian inroad
into Greece, but some of the invaders
are clad in German uniforms. Greek
inhabitants of the border districts are
fleeing southward and are spreading
panic in Seres by their reports of
rape, murder and pillage. At Lahov.o,
Tcliengel and Little Petrich there
have been massacres. The Inhabi
tants have been plundered of all their
provisions and live stock by the Ful
garians, who thus obtained much
needed supplies.

German Assaults Are Checked by the
Hrench.
The region of Vnux and Damloup,
nonuensr ot erdun, bas been the
scene of further futile attempts of
the Germans to pierce the French
lines. All I ho attacks worn not t
naught by the French fire, except a
night attack between Damloup and
Fort Ynnw where the Germans ob
tained a foothold in French trenches.
From these, however, they were im
mediately driven out by a counter
attack.
The Canadian troops ami the Ger
mans have boon battling fiercely on
the Vprcs K-Hiont. The German gnus
opened up several days ago, i1 luging
the Canadian positions and the sur
rounding territory with shells. Then
the German infantry advanced along
an extendi d trout of almost two
miles, capturing trenches. In a series
of count er-a) tacks, in which bomb
and bayonet played an important
part, the Canadians regained most
of the lost ground and have reorgan
ized their positions.
On the Russian front violent ar
tillery duels are going on in the P.es
sarabian and Volhynian sectors. Sev
eral Russian infantry attacks against
the Anstrians were repulsed.
The Italians in the region of Ar
siero are holding Hie Anstrians from
further advances in the desperate
struggle that is going on in Ibis region.
Food Fcr Starving Polanders.
Norway is sending 4.000 tons of
grain to Poland, and other Scandina
vian countries are expected to follow
a like examnle in relieving the acute
distress which now prevails in Po
land. Conditions in Poland have re
cently readied the climax of their
seriousness as a result of the non
arrival of food which had been prom
ised bv the American committee.

President Wilson at Memorial to Con

President Wilson attended the me
mortal exercises held in the Confed

cemetery, but did not speak. His ap
pearance was unexpected, as he had
previously announced that he would
be unable to attend, but he was en
thusiast ieiilly received by a large
crowd of southerners.
mi' exercises were, impressive in
their simplicity. Senator Yarilamnn,
orator of the occasion, paid tribute to
the Confederate soldier and the self
sacrilii ing women of the south. De

states to secede, lie declared tho an

the Confederacy failed?" rested with
the future and the way the general
government used its power. He said
he would rather be a free citizen of
a democracy like Switzerland than
"the slave of a militarism, such as
Germany."
A beautiful floral southern cross
was unveiled at the base of the Con
federate monument, after which flow
ers were strewn over the graves of the
south's dead, including that of Gen.
Joseph Wheeler, the Confederate hero,
who fought under the Stars and

Newlyweds Have Rather Thrilling

Some exciting honeymoon was that
of Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Randolph,
who were married on the lfith of June
in Virginia and who have just arrived
in Miami, Fla.
Coming south via the Atlantic
Coast Line railway, their fi rst experi
ence was a wreck. Then, when they
got to Jacksonville, Mr. Randolph was
arrested, but not on account of t he
wreck, but because he parked an au
tomobile in the wrong place. While
no one was killed, Mr. Randolph said
it was the worst smash-up he ever
saw. and in the baggage car were
five trunks belonging to Mrs. Ran.
dolpli. and in tho trunks were packed
her trousseau and wedding presents.
The baggage car turned over on its
side in a swamp and when the trunks
were removed four hours later the
slime had ruined those articles not
broken in the wreck.
The trunks and their contents were
valued at ::,O0O, and Mr. Randolph
lias tiled a claim for damages.
