Mackensen No Scot.

The idea current in the Scottish
press that General Won Mackensen is
a Highlander gone astray is quite err
roneous. One finds on the continent
occasional traces of Scottish names
slightly transformed to fit their sur
roundings. They are common enough
in Holland, thanks to the famous
eighteenth century regiment of the
Scots-Dutch. and we have an exam
pie in the Norwegian pianist, Grieg.
whose ancestors, Greigs of Arboath,
settled in Bergen, in Norway. Won
Mackensen is no sort of a Mackenzie.
He takes his name from the village of
Mackensen, on the Selling, small ag.
ricultural spot in Hanover, not far
from the once pleasant town of Hides.

their names from the soil, General

TO DEFEND SERBIA
HOPE THAT WAR IN BALKANS

Action Follows News Of Arrival In
Bulgaria Of Austrian and Ger
man Officers to Direct the
Bulgarian Army.

London-The hope expressed that
war in the Balkans might be averted
virtually has been abandoned, accord
ing to the belief expressed in official
circles.
Foreign Secretary Grey announced
Friday afternoon that Austrian and
German officers were arriving in Bull
garia to direct the Bulgarian army.
The secretary said this was fact
which the allies regard with the ut
most gravity"
The foreign secretary authorized
the following statement:
Information has been received that
German and Austrian officers have for
several days been arriving in Bulgaria
with view to taking an active part in
directing the Bulgarian army. This
action is precisely similar to that TAX
en- in Turkey, where German officers
forced Turkey to make an entirely I'M
provoked attack upon Russia last
year.
''Since the allied powers are bound
to support the states who are threat
ened by such proceedings in Bulgaria
this news is regarded as of the utmost
gravity"
The Paris Temps announces that
France and Great Britain and Russia
already have taken military measures
to defend Serbia and Greece against
Bulgarian aggression.
The Temps does not indicate what
armed steps have been taken by the
allies, nor is anything official avail.

sitions. 1t is presumed in military
circles here, however, that formid-
able expedition will land either at
Kavala or Saloniki, or that it already
may be landing.

ALLIES ARE DRIVING
THE GERMANS BACK
DESPERATE EFFORTS ARE BEING
MADE TO TAKE TRENCHES oc-
cuPIED BY INVADING TEuToNs.
Week of Fighting on French Terri-

Both Sides and End OF the
Battle Is Not In Sight.

Desperate efforts are being made by
the French and English forces to
drive the Germans from French soil.
The Teutons are making stubborn
resistance, the result being heavy
losses on both sides.
This latest effort of the allies to beat
back the invaders has resulted in an
almost continuous battle which has
ragged along the western front for more
than a week
From French sources comes the
claim that the Germans have been
driven back from the first line OF de
tense.
Tornadoes of shells continue cease
lessly to sweep the German second
line of defense In Champagne. Gen
eral Joffre Is all the time feeling for
weak spots at which to throw the blue
lined waves OF his legions. Already
French detachments have taken firm
foothold in some advanced trenches in
this second line, which, like the first
consists OF series Of entertainments
forming underground forts.
Sometimes the French waves are
swept back, but they are as irresist
tble as an oncoming tide. Military
critics say that once this line is car
ried there is no third position which
could save Germany from a great dis
nster, affecting particularly the crown
princes army in the Argonne and Won
Heeringen's north of Rheims.
The losses on both sides are enor-
nous, according to all news from the
front. 1t Is evident that in the fight
Ing since Saturday at least 100000
men have been lost by both sides.
The casualties OF the attacking force
naturally are the greater it is be-
lieyed.
Along the Belgian coast the British
