WOMEN, GIRLS AND BOYS FIGHT WITH
 SERV|AN ARMIES
Thousands Die on Field Rather Than Yield Ground
 to Teuton Invaders.

Rome. Oct. 20.-Warfare that makes even the seasoned veterans of Rus sian campaigns shudder, is being waged in Servia. 1t is hardly war fare-it is alnihilation.
 From German sources comes the story of how stubbornly the Servians are defending their country against the invaders. They are fighting like fatalists.
 Women are fighting side by side with the men. Boys and girls are dying beside their parents. The Ser vian army has been augmented by practically every private citizen, male and female, capable of bearing arms : Few prisoners are taken. It is fight. to the death.
 ! Each ince that is gained by the Teutons and Bulgarians, is captured at a. frightful coast-as deadly to the invaders as to the defenders.
 All of the energies of General von Mackenzen are being put to the test. His Galician campaign was as chlld's play compared with this desperate a. tempt to cross Servia.
 Twice the German commander Has asked for re-inforcaments. Three new army corps, 12o,OOo,0OO men have already arrived from Germany. But these are not really reinforce ms nts - they merely suffice to Ill up the gaps that have been made by the Seryians in their desperate d:fense.
 The German losses have been enormous, but hose of the Servlans are undoubtedly greater. The pitt able, part of it is that among thelr dead left on the battl:flelds are many women, girls and boys.
 The fight for possession or the town of Vranja was one Of the most bloody in warlare-modern or ancl, ent The Bulgarians finally occuplea it but wi.h frightfule cost Ine. ser yians def :nded the palace until prac- tically ,uhe last man died fighting. The defense was completely wiped ont The victory cost the Bulgarians 10 GOO lives. The town was ilttle more than a mine fi:ld, and defend CTS and assailants were oft5n blown up together. .,@.

London, Oct. 21. tThursd1 1y)-The Daily Telegram today prints the fol- lowing:
 Tn an effort to obtain the support of Greece for the ent nte powers, the British government has off red King Constantine the islan1 of Cyprus.
 "The offer was made to Greece after tn entente ministers had de- liversd practical ultimatum to Greece. M Zaimis, the premier, was advised to give up his enuivocal policy, which he was plainly told, the allies were not prepared to tolerats. Greece's position was thereby made precarious.
 King Const1ntin was tsld the island of Cyprus, at tle eastern end of the M ditarranean, which con- mands the entrance 10 the Suez canal, %sll libe handed over forthwith by Great Britain, if Greco consents to enter th5 war on the sid of the allies
 "All that Greece has to do to win this prize, which she has lang covet- ed, is 10 agree to take tae field at once and cast her lot with the allies.
 "The remarkable offer from Great Britain, it is believed, will create an excellent impression in Gree ce. It will. be regarded there as substan- ticnal proof of the good will of Great Britain.
 Heretofore, in the parleys for Greece'sn support, there have been nothing but promises of what would be given them for their support. This is tn. first time that there has been an offer to actually concede some- thing to them on the moment that Greece performs it's part of the agree ment."

TURKS TO SERvIA.
Large Forces of OttOmans Moving
 Along Greco.Bulgarian Border.

London, Oct. 2O.-Turkish troops, with strong artillery support, are moving on Bulgarian frontier, toward Serbia according to dis patch from Salonki. It is reported also that the bombardment Of Pedeaghatch, the Bulgarian port on the Aegaen sea, is about to com mence.
 An official statement issued in Sofia today announced the occupation of Radovitch, which is about half way between Strumitz and Istit, which the Bulgarians.
 Berlin dispatch says:
 "The occupation Knishevatz by the Bulgarians is imminent"
 Knishevatz is about 30 miles north of Nish. It was in the direction of Knishevatz that the Bulgarians made their first invasion of Serbia on Oc-
 ober F, when they struck at Grai- boghaz in an effort to reach the Nis'h- Roumania railrcad.
 Notwithstanding that all reports in- dicate the occupation e. Vranja by the Bulgarians and that the Nish- Saloniki railroad has been reached by the invaders. the Serbian legation in London tonight issued this state- ment:
 "The Serbians are still resisting the enemy on both fronts. It is not true that the Bulgarians have occupied vranja, and it is not true that the railroad has been cut The Bulgar- ians occupy a position commanding the railroad line."
 The Serbian capital has been moved from Nish to Prizrand, in the west, almost to the Albanian border.
 Austro-German and Bulgarian ad- yances are reported from all fronts today The advance of the invading Teutons in the north is proceeding much slower than was anticipated. owng to the resistance of the Serbans, the heavy rains and the bad condi- tion of the rosds. This handicap will be greater as the Austro-Germans get farther south, where the Serbs are more firmly entrenched in the mourn tains.
 Concerning operations of the Bull; garian armies the Berlin official statement claims the capture of sul- tan Tspe, southwest of Egri Palanka. and the capture of 2O00 prisoners and F cannon by the army operating In the direction of Kumanovo.
