MoTHER-IN-LAW LINES UP WITH
DAUGHTER-IN-LAW
And the Tango-Crazy Son Decides to
Support His Family.

Notwithstanding the old standby
jokes of the funny papers about
mother-in-laws, Mrs. Mary Lowrey,
$3.50 Lafayette street, lined up be-
side her daughter-in-law against her
tango-crazy son in the court of Do
nestle Relations this morning.
John ]. Lowrey, the son, is Fl. His
wife is 10 and there is baby nine
months old.
John is quite handsome lad who
occasionally, in between tangoing,
works as railroad fireman.
1t isn't the first time he has been
in the court of Domestic Relations.
The last time he was ordered Il uon-
tribute a weekly amount toward the
support of his wife and child, but he
has been so busy at his favorite pas
time that he forgot all about the
court order.
'It is true, your honor, that he has
not been taking care of his wife and
baby" said the wife's mOther-in-law.
'He hasn't been treating his wife
right. He spends all his time with
other people dancing the tango. My
son ought to be made to do the right
thing
John looked reproachfully at his
mother and then decided that he bet
ter turn over new leaf, as the two
women stood shoulder to shoulder.
'Tn quit tangoing and work and
support my family, judge" he said,
and then John, his wife and baby,
and his, wife's mother-in-law went
out of the courtroom happy once
more.

LondOn.-A SemlIn dispatch TO the
Standard says:
"The Austrians crossed the Danube
80 miles to the east of Belgrade and
the Save 10 miles to the south. Bel
grade has been captured and is now
occupied by Austrian troops, and the
force which invaded Servia at Semen
aria is advancing along the road which
leads to Osipanica and ultimately to
Nish.
1.-THE occupation Of Belgrade was
carried out without serious difficulty.
The invading troops crossed the river,
partly by means of the remnants of
the railway bridge which was blown
up by the Seryians and partly by a
pontoon bridge constructed under its
cover, and approached the Servian
camp from the south.
Drive Servians Before Them.
"The attacking forces advanced by a
steep hill, driving the Servians before
them. The Servians retreated, partly
along the road leading to Groca and
partly toward Popovics. The losses
on both sides appeared to have been
comparatively light.
"The invasion of Servia at Semen
dria was much more difficult task.
The Austrians built pontoon bridge
under the cover of darkness from an
island in the middle of the Danube,
where the channel narrows to 200
yards and the current is swift. The
construction of the bridge was haz-
ardous operation. The work was per-
ceived from the Servian shore and
the Servians opened fire.
"The attacking forces were aided
by artillery and infantry along the
south shore of the island and succeed
ed in completing the bridge, over
which they passed"
Invaders Number 100000.
The Hungarian force invad-
ing Servia totals 100000 men, accord
ing to a newspaper dispatch from

the river Drina, in Bosnia; 100000
from Saraievo, the capital of Bosnia,
and 100000 from Milanovatz, on the
Danube, on the eastern part of Servia.
The ancient fortress of Belgrade
was reduced by the Austrian artillery
which, however, caused only slight
damage TO other parts Of the Servian
capital The British legation was
struck By an Austrian shell.
