The Serbians are yielding before the Austro-Germans in Northern and Western Serbia, and falling back before the onslaughts of the Bulgarians in the eastern part of the country, though no vital changes are yet noted. The Austrian official report states that they have captured only 20 Serbian officers and 6600 men.
 The Franco-British forces are now appearing in Macedonia. A report states that French troops have land ed at Kavala; this follows yesterdays reports that transports were sighted there. It is problematical whether SAA~J "AAA OO oOAO tO Jun IlO AllAOo quickly enough to relieve the pressure on the Serbians, though it is believed they will try to flank the Bulgarians

FUNSTON REPORTS
 STATUS AT DOUGLAS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. A. General Frederick Funston reported that the Carranzistas were the main offenders in firing into American ter ritory before Douglas. He adds, ''it would not be fair to return to the fire to Gen Villa without treating Gales with the same medicine"
 He claims to have had a converse tion with Gen. Villa at the boundary, who reportes that the attitude of the U. S. was entirely satisfactory to him. Villas forces number about 12,000. Contrary to the Mexican custom, Gen. Villa left the women and children of his following at Casas Grandes during the progress of the fighting.
 The soldiers of both Mexican forces displayed excellent spirit. Funston said that Villa and Gales both did their utmost to prevent firing to the American side. The shooting of the Gales artillery was fairly good.
 HO COLuuCC Ol IHS V llld IIOOpS lS fine. The whereabouts of his main army is unknown, though at one time it was reported at Cabullona, IS miles south. He has detachment at East Naco, estimated at 4,OO0. Another de- tachment, is obtaining supplies at the city of Naco.
 A fewAWilla soldiers, who surrender ed to Gales scouts, declared that Gen. Villa is planning to distribute his Carranza garrison with guerrilla war. fare.
 The Villa dead left on the field are 336, state advices from Douglas. Two hundred were counted lying west of Agua Prieta, and 136 to the east. Gales dead were 25 soldiers, and his wounded, 70.
 Gales sent out a cavalry force to keep in touch with the Villa rear guard. The battle of Agua Prieta in one respect recalls the famous fight at Matanzas, Cuba, in 1898.
 Among the casualties on the Ameri- can side it became known today, was one perfectly good gray mule. He got too close to the firing line and a piece of shrapnel came over on the American side and gave him his Quietus.

WEE ALEXANDER
BY Jane Whitaker
A wee Scotch lad is Alexander Mac
GTegOr and he has a tidy little body
of a mother. Alexander has also a
philosophy. It is only a~little bit diff
ferent from philosophy that has
been found successful, but that little
bit Of difference makes AleXander's
philosophy all wrong. The tidy lit
tie mother of Alexander has a philOs-
Ophy, too. It is that no matter how
many times the philosophy of Alex
ander is found wrong and punish
ment threatens him. it is the duty of
a mother to plead that he be given
another chance and she has a firm
belief that since the Creator Of us
all gives us chance after chance and
never WeaTies Of giving us chances,
human beings made in His likeness
ought to have a little bit of the same
charity in their hearts, and so she al
ways is back of Alexander with her
philosophy when his fails.
But you want to know what is Al
Cxander's philosophy? It is that
when a fellow is driven to steal he
ought to steal off the guy that has a
lot and won't miss it and not off
somebody that can't afford to lose
it. And that is where Alexander
makes his mistake.
If he turned the code around he
might get away with it. 1t isn't so
very long ago that a merchant prince
of New York, Henry Siegel, ruined
thousands Of the East Side poor who
had entrusted their lifetime savings
to him and threw out of employment
at the holiday season thousands of
store girls because he is alleged to
have Incorporated funds entTust-
ed to him that he and his wife might
live in even greater luxury than they
had been enjoying, But the mer-
chant prince of New York chose the
