Fear for Serb Army

Great anxiety is felt in Lon
don regarding the safety Of the Ser
bian armies, now engaged in dill
cult retreat.
The Austro-German advance from
the northwest approaches the San
jak of Novipazar, having reached to
the north of Raska. Thence it passes
through Kursumlia and Radan, ending
at a point between Leskovatz and
Vranya. The occupation OF Kursum
liza brings the invaders close to Nitro
vita and gives them the key to one
of the few great crossroads cutting
Serbia from west to east.
The Serbian army is being forced
between the limits of two narrow
fronts, Mitrovitza and Pristina, in the
center, and Prilip and Monast:r cn
the south. The Serbians have the al
tentative of giving battle where they
stand or retiring in the center through
Prizrend into Albania, and in thl
south, if the road into Algania /
barred.
The fate of Morastir is not ye
known definitely, but there is lite
hope that it will escape the Ba,ga
rians. There is possibility, how
ever, that the invaders will not ca !,
to make such an extension Of the,
line, with the French apparently es-
tablished soliIly on their flank.

HOSPITAL WANTS
PRIVATE AMBULANCE
Object to Hauling Sick Womer
and 'Drunks" in the Same
Vehicle

Recommendation was made this af-
ternoon to the Board of Managers of
the Harrisburg Hospital by William
NJ. Condor, superintendent, that pri-
vate ambulance should be bought for
the use of the hospital The present
ambulance is being used by the city
police department to get prisoners and
take them to and from the jail
On several occasions when the am
bulance was needed 1t was busy taking
prisoners to jail. thus delaying the
medical case awaiting to be taken care
of.
Mr.. Condor said to-day that the
hospitals in the other cities have pri-
vate ambulances to answer their calls
and that considering the large num-
ber of admissions and discharged pa
tients each week at the local institu-
tion he thought that the ambulance
would be a big improvement on the
present system. 1t is believed that
much of the money to be used in pur-
chasing the machine should the man
ayers favor of the plan, will be raised
by public subscription. At present the
institution is providing for more than
one hundred patients on daily aver
age, crowding conditions at the institu-
tion.
