anu restaurants deSpolled. The rest
Of the night stragglers looted the re-
mains, drank whiskey and cognsc,
fought private quarrels in the streets,
lay in drunken stupor. Others chose to
substitute a pair of woman's new shoes
at the belt for the regulation canteen,
an astrakhan cap for the army one, a
light cane for the sword, and swagger
through the streets ever westward.
At O'Clock the citizens rushed down
to tho bank of the Nishava, across
from the Capitol, and fought for hours
over stores Of khaki coats which the
owners began throwing from the win
dows to prevent the incoming Bulgars
from appropriating. Women. children,
men. gypsies, soldiers and deserters,

Hundreds FASTENED homeward with a
load Of coats, only to run back for
more. Soldiers. too lazy and indepen-
dent TO earn their loot. awaited choice
armfuls in the streets and stole spoils
from the despoilers. Later sweaters
al peared by the hundreds and were
sold freely about the town for two
badly deprecated dinars each. Half
the Young women Of Nish are now APP
parelled in them. Bolts of canvas and
muslin came next, and then knick-

dropped and fought for, trampled in

Another magazine with -four was

and Nish staggered under 2OO-pound
sacks Of free -four. Other regiments
appeared in the retreat, marching in
some scmblance of order, but deserters
were frequent, and frantic officers on
horses charged groups upon the curb,
forcing them TO rejoin the column
sometimes.

NO SECOND CHANCE
IN THE NEXT WORLD
Man Has MI the Opportunities lie

Says Minister.

Al the First Baptist church We'd
nesda, evening. Rev \. NJ. Bailey
took his text from the second chapter
Of Ephesians and part of the lZJh
verse: Having no hope and without
cod in the world.
We said there are three lines OF
hone m which people are indulging.
which do not take God into cOnsidera-
ton. The first is that sin is not es-
sentially ju-deserving. the second IS
the hope - universal salvation; and
the third Is the hope that they VIII
be saved by character or that men
will have a second chance.
The speaker refuted all these doc
trines and stated that no one i'm South
Bend could expect a second chance III

living i'm this world under the influ-
ence OF the Gospel as it is being
preached from the 90 churches in

rejected a thousand chances here.

by some men that "a just God would
not condemn men 20 eternal punish
ment he said that unless there is

Jesus Christ upon the cross was a

OF a duet by Glen a. Cover and Harry
