 When the fans realized that the AL lies had copped the game they nearly razed the building with their applause.

Marty McHa1e Comes
 To Terms With Yanks

Savannah, Ga, March 13-Marty McHa1e came to an agreement yes terday with Bill Donovan and will hang around with the New York Americans for the rest of the season. Marty wanted more coin than the club figured he was worth. It came down to the point where the club refused to make the slightest conceS- sion and told him if he didn't sign they would get rid of him. That ended all arguments.

A most delightful dance was given
last week by Mrs. Charles F. Flagg at
her beautiful summer home on the
Upper Road. This dance was given
in the honor of Cadet Whitcomb of
West Point, who has lately arrived
with his father, Major Whitcomb, at
Fort Mckinley. The house was at
tractively decorated with wild and
cultivated flowers, while on the porch
es and the trees Of the surrounding
grounds Japanese lanterns were most
effectively hung. Mrs. Flagg and Mrs.
Whitcomb received the young people
At the intermission delicious ices,
dainty cakes and fruit punch were
served Those who had the pleasure
Of attending this dance were Misses
Geraldine Wheeler, Eleanor Palmer,
Priscilla Stevens, katheryn Wheeler,
Helen Small, Ruth Patten, Esther
Stevens, Elsie Vein, Katherine Lewis,
Cornelia Jackson and the Misses Ste
vens. The young men present were
Wadsworth owen, Philip Coe, Jack
Wyer, Kilhorn Coe, Ned Elwell, Law
renee Eastman, Paul Donahue, Law
renee Day and Tyler Stevens.
The most brilliant affair which ever
occurred on the island was the recep-
have been ordered away from the
Post to Fortress Monroe Virginia
This reception was gotten up by the
officers and ladies of the Fort to show
their appreciation and love for Coll
onel Todd and his charming wife in
the work they have done while on the
island. The reception was held in
the Mines Building on the Fort
grounds. The decorations of ferns
and American flags were most Won
derful and elaborate. A special fea-
ture of the decorations was a large
American flag draped over the en-
trance with the Fort searchlight play
ing upon it. The effect was most
brilliant and startling. Not only for
the decorations was this reception a
success, but also for it's size. Prac-
tically all the summer residents of
the island were present and with the
officers il their dapper white uniforms
mingling in the crowd of women beau
tifully gowned, made scene never
to be forgotten. A light dinner of
dainty and delicious food was served
and at a late hour the gay throng
sought their homes.
The Misses Burett and friends, all
from New York, will occupy the cot
tage of Mr.. Charles E. Wyer until the
first of September. Although new
corners to the island, they have many
friends here who cordially welcomed
them here upon their arrival.
Last Saturday night the regular
dance was held at Elwell hall. This
dance, as are all of the dances held
here, was very we'll attended by both
young and old of the island. The mu-
sic is so good that many people who
cannot dance attend just for the
pleasure of hearing OF and seeing
the gay couples whirling to and fro
among the crowd.

London.-The Serbians are fa''ing
back from mountain range to moul-
tain range before the advance of the
Austro-German forces, whose official
reports enumerate the capture or a
thousand or more prisoners daily, a
few guns and quantities of stores. The
Serbians are fighting continuously,
however, and are inflicting consider.

Along the eastern trent, the Ser.
bans appear to be holding their own

SO stubborn has been their resistance
the Bulgarians have had to call for as

tillery in their effort to drive the de.
tenders out of Katchanik pass. Thus
far they have been unsuccessful.
The Briti.h and French troops,
which are receiving reinforcements,
are meeting with some success, and
besides repulsing the Bulgarian at
lacks, have undertaken small offensive
movements with good results The
Austro Germans and Bulgarians, how
ever, made such progress from the
beginning of the campaign that it will
now take serious work to check them.
For the moment, the political situa-
ton is graver than the military situa-
ton. The central powers have again
protested to Greece against the land
ing of allied troops at Saloniki. King
Constantine is reported to have replied
that as Sa.oniki is an open port, there
has been no infringement of Greek
rights in the landing, and that Greece
will remain neutral until one of the

these rights. Italy has now joined her
