Summary g OF THE
 w ar News


 The siege of Przemys1 came to an end to-day when the Austrian defenders of the Ga1ician for tress surrendered to the RuAsian forces which had been investing it for months. The fall of aPrzemysl deprives Austria of her last important fortress in Cali cia with the exception of Cra- COW, near the. German border which the Russians have made several unsuccessful attempts to capture.
 The German War office an nounced that the city of Mebel on the Baltic Sea at the northern tip of East Prussia, had been re- taken from the Russian force which captured it last week, fol- lowing a battle near the city. The German announcement con tains the assertion that Russians footed the city while they were in possession.
 Simultaneous offensive move ments against the German, Aus trian and Turish armies from the Baltic to the Black Sea have been undertaken by the armies of Russia and in some sections def mite progress is reported. In treme north, Germans are re- treating from MemeI, East Prus- sia, and the Russians are be1iev- ed to have begun another drive at Tilsit-
 Tn Poland there is activity all along the front but apparently the general battle which Petro- grad expects has not begun
 In Ga1icia there has been vio~ lent fighting for several days with no important advantages for either side.
 The Russian army in the Cau- casus has announced a, victory over the Turks in the fighting along the Black Sea coast, in Turkish Armenia
 After several months Of inac tfvfty, hostiIities have been re- sumed between Austria and her small neighbors. Serbia, and Mon tenegro. A despatch from Get tinje states that the Austrians made an artillery attack lasting several days against Montenegrin positions all along the front but that efforts to follow this with infantry advances were defeated.
 An artillery battle between the Austrialas and Serbians also was reported.
 The reports of increasing ac- tivity have no parallel on the western front where no large movements are under way. The attack on the Dardane11es also has been stopped temporarily ow- ing to bad weather.

PASTORS STILL DIS AGREEING ON
 BILLY SUNDAY
Liquor Dealers Plan to Meet This Week To Discuss
 Baseball Evangelist.

A special meeting of the members of the Bridgeport Liquor Dealers as sociatlon will probably be called for some day this week to consider what action the Bridgeport Pastors asso- citation may take regarding the prop osition to call Billy Sunday, the baseball Evangelist here, also to con sider the report which Rev. H. N. .PringIe assistant superintendent of the4 international Reform bureau of Washington, D. G., concerning con- ditfons in Bridgeport, made to the Bridgeport Pastors association at the special meeting at the r. M c. A. hall to-day. The pastors met in the front parlor and secluded themselves from the public No .newspapermen were admitted and Rev. P. B. Ma thias, pastor of the Kings Highway Congregational church was very care fu1 to herd all reporters into the hall way, where they could hear nothing concerning what was taking place.
 That the pastors are not a. unit on inviting MT. Sunday to come to Bridgeport was evidenced by the length of the meeting and the oppo- Hsition that developed. Rev. Gerald H. Beard, of the Park street Congre- gationaI church read a paper in oppo- sition to the proposition to ask MT. Sunday to come here. Rev. MT. Boards paper was dignifed protest against the methods of MT. Sunday and the Keynote of his opposition is said to lie in his belief that no per nnanent good would come of such re- vivaI services.
 Each member of the ministers as- sociation following their usual cus- tom was very careful to keep to him. self whatever developed at the meet ing Rev. John G. SadtIer. rector of Christ Episcopal church who was a member of the committee of ten ap- pointed by the Pastors association to go to Philadelphia to hear MT. Sun day preach, refused to have anything to do with the matter. A number of Episcopal clergynen who are not members of the association had been invited to the meeting to-day but they left before the discussion was finished.
 Several prominent members of the Bridgeport Liquor Dealers association were in conference with Thomas F. Flynn, the president to-day with refer ence to calling a general meeting of persons engaged in the business to form a larger and more permanent organization.
 Bridgeport clergymen are still in disagreement over the proposition tc have a. Billy Sunday revival here There was a long and somewhat tur- bulent meeting of the Pastors asso- citation in the r. M.

THE ENGAGED GIRL

The engaged girl is occasionally

she makes on her fiance's time and
attention. Very frequently, however
the shoe is on the other foot, and II
Is the man who is unreasonable in
his attitude toward the lady of his
choice.
How some girls can permit their
fiances to treat them the way they do
is really surprising Their long suffer
ing is pathetic-more than that, it is
humiliating. For the engaged girl
certainly has ri2ht to expect certain
things from the man whom she has
honored with her promise to love,
marry and make happy.
What some women find in some men
to admire is the greatest and most
unfathomable mystery. But, since
these strange infatuations do exist and
always viii exist as long as the sun
and moon and stars endure, it be
hooves the engaged girl to keep her
man up to the mark and to definitely
refuse to tolerate certain lapses to
which the average male is prone.
