MEETING FIERCE RESISTANCE

Field Marshai Won Maeksnssn's Army
- Making Slow Progress Against
servian Defense and 10 Expected TO
Encounter Still Stronger Opposition.
London. Oct. 1.-the reports that
the allies have occupied strumitza

Gently transferred from Turkish to
Bulgarian rule, has caused a more
optimistic feeling throughout the al
lied countries.
As to the progress of the Near East
ern campaign it is known from both
Servian and German accounts. that
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's army
is meeting with greater resistance
than was expected and. although 1t is
probable that the Servians eventually
must fall back on stronger strategic
positions in the north. the fact that
the allies are bringing heavy forces
against the Bulgarians and SO placing
them that the Bulgarians will be com.
PEELED to divide their armies gives
hope here that the Germans may be
baked in their latest attempt to
reach the Aegean sea and bring as.
sistance to the Turks.
All along the line the Servians and
their Montenegro neighbors. who also
are being attacked, are Offering very

Germans and Bulgarians and, while
they have given up number Of towns
and positions, they have not yet
reached the line on which they expect
to make their stand.
1uIearians Destroy Bridge.
The Bulgarians, so far as can be
learned, have made progress only in
the Zlotokopska valley, near the
River Morava, north of the town Of
Vranya, where they blew up bridge. |
There is no confirmation, however, Of
the report that they cut the railway
in this district, the bridge which they
destroyed being a small wooden one !
near the railway. The Bulgarian
force which penetrated the valley is
not large one.
On tna other hand, 1t is pointed out. !
the capture of Strumitza is Of real
strategic value, as its occupation per.
mits the defense of the southern end i
of the railway and compels the Bull.

too, is of value, as although not q |

great harbor and is fortified and min.

TREY in the hands of the military un.

Allied Fleet in Aegean Sea.
The Italians, according to the lat
est reports, will not send contingent
to the Balkans, but cooperation of
their navy in the Aegean, where an
allied fleet has already gathered, is
looked for.
The point at which the Russians
will strike has not yet been disclosed.
The expectation is, however, that the
allies have surprise for the central
powers and that steps are being TAX
en- to bring Turkey to her knees be-
fore assistance can reach her.
There has been plenty Of heavy
fighting on both the eastern and west
ern fronts. but in neither case has
either side attempted general Of

The Germans are still making a
great effort between Riga and Dvinsk
and have met with some minor sue

border, wherever there has been any

attacking, and they, too, claim gains.
Much the same conditions prevail

The Cop with the Pigeons

W7HERE Detroit's Farmer street
w cuts Gratiot avenue, car lines con-
verge at awkward angles, and
crowds from two of the largest depart
ment stores in the city mingle with trucks
that travel between the wholesale and
upper business districts. Both the thor
oughfares are narrow, and the handling
of the immense traffic that traverses that
intersection during busy hours is vex-
ing problem.
Howard C. Liable, six feet, over two
hundred, under thirty, stands between
the car tracks and keeps pedestrians
from dangerous proximity to street-cars,
automobiles, and horses. 1t is mans
job, and good mans job: that is why
his captain put Liable at Farmer and
Gratiot.
Pigeons Dodge Automobiles
WELL ordered though conditions are
w at this crossing, the policeman who
is responsible for them is not. known to
Detroiters as an efficient traffic officer.
He is to them "the cop with the pigeons;
for, besides keeping things moving sys-
tematically, Liable has made companions
of the big flock of pigeons that nest under
the caves of the public library building,
just off his corner, and at almost any
hour of the day they are about his feet,
picking up the grain he carries in his
pockets and throws to them.
An unusual combination,-this big
officer with his smile and his poise, which
make for his splendid command of a
difficult situation, and yet with time to
win the friendship of birds so that they
come to him and feed, needless of the
heavy wheels and gathering hoofs that
miss them by inches. AT times a score

Why Not Clean Your Own Watch?

COMETIMES a matchmaker charges
from dollar to three dollars for
cleaning watch or clock-and some
times he does very little to the timepece
in question. To be actually hand cleaned
every piece must be taken apart and fixed
separately.
A useful discovery was made along this
line, and the watch repairers are trying
to keep it to themselves. Instead of
going to the great trouble of separating
the parts, the only thing that is done
nowadays by a great many workers is
simply to soak the works in gasolene. The
gasolene dissolves the grease, which has
Evening star., 1915-06-13

the fluid. The chief thing to look for in
case one desires to rejuvenate an old alarm
clock is to see whether or not the main
spring is broken. Of course, if that be
broken, cleaning will do no good; but
most watches and clocks are retired be-
cause they either stop on the job or do not
keep good time.
Dirty works are mostly responsible for
this condition. After cleaning with gaso-
lene, wind the timepiece up, and if it does
not start off by itself push the little
balance wheel forward so that it will
vibrate by means of the very small spring,
and it ought to run all right.
Evening star., 1915-06-13

caught the dust and made the works
gummy, and probably cleans the whole
thing even better than was formerly done
However, as the process takes only few
minutes of moving the works backward
and forward in a glass of gasolene, three
dollars could not be conscientiously
charged if the public knew about it. Also
the public would clean it's own watches
and clocks.
A great many alarm clocks, and cheap
watches particularly, which are not worth
three dollars, can now be put in fine con-
dition by simple immersion in common
gasolene and few motions to and fro in

tne Selulng power OF any
amateur was exceedingly
limited. Young Maxim's
plan changed all that. He
conceived the idea that if
all the amateurs agreed to
work together at some par
ticular hour of the day,
a message could be relayed
from one to another, SO
that great distances would
be covered without the
necessity for any increase
in sending power.
Out Of this plan grew
tho National Radio Relay
League, which now consists
of two handred and fifty
members. ..
No money transactions of
any kind are allowed by the
league, and no messages are
received from non-members
that would compete with
the business of commercial
wireless companies.

or more are about him, and when traffic
comes with a rush they do not flap up
ward, but cluster close about the feet of
the man in uniform and wait until a let
up again allows them to waddle out after
the grain he has scattered.
Liable began coaxing the pigeons to
him many months ago. They were shy,
especially during the rush hours, and
patience was required to induce them to
alight among the vehicles. Now they

Good Copy for Reporters

DEOPLE who drive past the corner daily
have come to look for the birds, and 60
around them when possible, rather than
to force scurrying for the policeman's
feet. People go out of their way to stand
and watch the circling pigeons come down
into the crowded clatter of business. Edi-
torial writer's of Detroit newspapers draw
good pictures of the cop with the pigeons
and then draw a moral.
And over in police headquarters-up-
stairs, where they know all things-you
are told that Liable is a right fine officer,
who gave up the silver buttons of the
fire department to come on the force
five years ago, and has made for him.
self an enviable record as servant of
the public. "He has the poise, you
know" they'll say. people respect him
naturally and he never has any trouble.
He's the best type of officer you'll find
anywhere.
Another angle This policeman is
philatelist, and whenever stamp collec-
tors forgather in Detroit he is always
looked to as one of the stand-bys for
arrangements. He can handle plans for
that complex class of men and women
who spend years and fortunes gathering
postage stamps just as well as he can
handle his traffic-or his pigeons And
among the stamp-wise he is considered
to be one of the inner circle.

5000 EMPLOYES NEW YORK $. |.
 PLANT, STRIKE

New York, July 20-Virtually every workman employed by the Standard Oil company at it's great Constable Hook plant in Bayonne went on strike today. There are now about 5000 man out. The man at the ad- joining Tidewater oil plant, the strikers say, shortly will join them
 There was some disorder today and six arrests were made Tne strike trouble first appeared last week when the still cleaners went out because their demand for an Il per cent increase in wages was not granted. They were followed yester- day by the 900 men in tne barrel shops and today by the rest of the employees. The strike halted the load ing of case and barrel oil for Europe. There are six steamers at the piers in various stages of loading. All are said to be destined for England.
 The men who struck today made no demand for increased wages, but it is thought likely that they will do so. At present their strike is sympathetic.
 Officials of the Standard Oll com pany of New Jersey stated that. the plant at Bayonne probably will be shut down without delay.
