Miss Pearl Mckay Is Heroine Of
Attack While Selling "War
Cry" in Saloon.

One might not believe pretty Miss
Pearl Mckay, a sixteen year old Sal
walton Army lassie. has punch enough
in her right arm to put out a big,
strong man. but there is one man in
Atlanta who knows that she has.
Generally Miss McKay's uniform en-
titles her to every protection. but, to
quote her own words, sometimes a
rowdy who doesn't know any better
tries to get fresh"
Miss Mckay sells the War Cry
in offices. stores. on the streets, and
also in near bear saloons. and only
one time during her six months ex-
perience in Atlanta has she had an
unpleasant experience.
On this occasion Miss Mckay was
selling the War Cry" in a near
beSr saloon. Starting out the door
she was seized from behind by a in
toxicated man. Quickly turning,
Miss Mckay struck the man in the
face. This angered him, and instead
Of loosening his hold, he frightened
it.
With a desperate effort she tore
from his grasp and struck her as
sailant with all her might. He stag
gered back, but the little Salvation
Army lassie's ire was up, and she
went after the man, raining blow
after blow on his face and head.
The onlookers applauded the plucky
little maid as she continued her pun
ishment.
Evidently realizing that there was
to be no let-up in the sturdy blows
of the angered girl, the man turned
and fled, followed by the delighted
jeers Of the spectators.

Special Gable TO The Atlanta Georgian
ATHENS, July 5.-Nearly a quar-
ter Of a million soldiers are engaged
in a terrific battle which is being
fought between Greece and Bulgarian
armies north of Salonika.
The battle line extends for 100
miles, and from dispatches received
to-day from the Greek military head
quarters in Salonika it is estimated
that more than 5000 men had been
killed or wounded.
There were 10000 men in the
Greek army, which is opposing
a force over 100000 strong The
Greeks have the advantage in loca-
ton, occupying a lofty plateau. The
Bulgarians charged repeatedly up the
ell-swept slopes, exhibiting the ut
most gallantry in their efforts to cap
ture the Greek artillery.
BuIgars Charge Up Slope.
More than $50 heavy guns were
ranged along the eminence and the
most desperate fighting centered
around these batteries. With bril-
liant courage the Bulgarians swept
up the sides of the plateau, which
was soon covered with dead and
wounded troops
Dispatches from the front said that
the result would be decisive. King
Constantine directed the operations of
the Greek army from headquarters
in Salonika, and ii was believed here
that he would take the field in per-
son if he saw the day were going
against his army.
A second Bulgarian army of 10000
men is reported to be moving to join
the troops engaged in battle. The
second Bulgar army was at a point
south of Tachynos Lake to-day, ad-
vancing on a forced march for the
battlefield.
Greek Victory Reported.
a Greek victory is reported from
Kilkis. where the Bulgarians were
crushed by the heavy ordnance of
the Hellenes. The Bulgars were I'M
able TO bring their artillery into &C
ton, owing to the fact that the in
fantry had outdistanced the artillery
II the march upon the Greek forces.
The Bulgarian soldiers were dis
persed, leaving behind sixty heavy
guns, which the Greeks captured.
