OBREGON FORCED
 TO CHANGE PLANS
Rodriguez Escapes From Cananea- Fighting Between Advance
 Guards.

Douglas, Ariz., Nov. 24.-Available Carranza reports early today indicated that the failure of his commanders comb bined with erroneous information had resulted in complete change iii the plans of General Alvaro Obregon to crush the Villa forces in Sonora and end revolutionary strife in Mexico.
 General Rodriguez, escaping from Cananea, is reported on his way to reinforce the Nogales garrison and his army of between 2,000 and 1000 men. Colonel Cardenas, leading 1,2OO Car ranza cavalry, was last reported headed for the Sonora river valley in the belief that a few hundred of Rod- riguez men sent south from Cananea as a lure was the main Villa body.
 Advanced guard of the Carranza and Villa forces have been fighting for two days at Labota which was report ed occupied for the second time by Carranza soldiers late last night. Gen. Manuel Acosta, leading the Villa forces out of Santa Cruz, was report ed to be retiring in the direction of Nogales.
 General Obregon is preparing to summon two more divisions of rein fOrcements to Sonora and 4,OOO troops expected to reach him to- day from Piedras Negras in bond through the United States.

Guards About Public Buildings Tn Washington Have Orders to
 Search Any Suspects.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Tne watch fitness of the guards about all the principal government buildings in the capital has been redoubled in special orders. Todays guards stationed at positions commanding all the en- frances in the building which houses the state, war and navy departments were under orders to question and, If necessary search any persons of whom they had doubt. Any one carrying a package of any sort was subject to questioning. Hundreds of tourists pass through the buildings daily.
 Since a bomb explosion wrecked a room in the capitol last summer and bomb plots generally have kept the government detectives busy, there has been more than usual activity among the guards here.
 Guards employed by railroad com panies are constantly on duty in the railroad tunnel leading to the bridge over the Potomac river, which is the principal gateway to the south.

FEW, NEED CHARITY.
Thanksgiving Dinners for Poor Have Been Provided With Little Trouble.

The era of prosperity which the city is now enjoying is a practical assurance that few if any will suf- fer tomorrow from the lack of 8 good dinner. The New Britain Char ity Organization, which acts as a clearing house in this matter has provided for about fifty-fve dinners after careful investigation of require ments. Contributions have been free ly offered through the factory offices and other agencies but the demand was not heavy. In no case where the organization provides a dinner this year is it due to the husband being out of employment.
 Much of the work that has de- volved on the organizations agents the past few days has been to prevent Implications. In one case on ex- amining the various lists sent in by churches and other organizations which deal with the poor it was dis covered five dinners would have been provided for one person had not the lists been carefully checked and the duplicates weeded out. The Cram mar school children took out a cash collection which was turned over to the charity organization this after noon to be used in relief work

CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
 FREE CHURCH OF DEBT
Joyful Announcement Makes Thanksgiving Doubly
 Significant.

Thanksgiving Day this year will be of double significance to the members of the Christian Science church at the corner of Park Place and West Main street this city.
 While the little church has been earnestly and consctentiously striving ahead in the nine years since the built, it has accomplished it's greatest undertaking within the past six weeks, namely, that of lifting the en- tire mortgage and freeing the church of all financial encumberances, to the amount of $3,3OO
 Besides Wiping out this debt 1000 has been raised and paid for a fine new organ which it is hoped will be installed and ready for use next Sun day.
 A movenenut is now on foot to have the building extensively re- paired and redecorated, work to be started in the near future.

 The church property represents an investment of $15,0OO. Of this s6,- 500 is represented by the site and $500 by the building and furnish ings.
 The first reader of the church at the time of organization was Joseph G. Mann. The second reader was Mrs. Idabelle Coutant The first reader today is Mrs. Harriet Beh. The average attendance is 1OO

Situation in Balkans.

London, Nov. 24, 11:42 a. m.- Conflicting claims to victory in the Balkans leave the present situation in doubt, but it is evident the advance of the Austro- German armies and their Bulgarian allies is not so rapid as earlier reports indicated. Appar- ently heavy fighting is under way in the section of the country where the Teutonic invaders are attcm mpting to form a junction with the Bugarians.
 The fate of Monastir is still in the balance Reports emarating from Athens state that the Bulgarians hav- ing regard for Greek susceptibilities, are waiting for the Germans to come up and occupy the city.
 In the entente capitals renewed confidence is professed that Greece is moving toward complete agree inent with the wishes of the allies
 Berlin has revived the report that . Russia is contemplating a great cam paign in the Balkans TOT which a large army has been gathered at Odessa. The Germans do not seem nt all sure Rumania will refuse per- mission to this army to tross her ter ritory.
