Serbians Have Made Another
Gallant Stand
TEUTONS FIND ROAD TO CONsTANTMOPLE LONG, ROCKY
AND HARD TO TRAVEL
ASSOCIATED Press)

London, Oct. 28.-Unoficial reports
from Greek sources represent the sit
uation in Southern Serbia as more
favorable for the Allies. An uncon-
firmed Athens dispatch says the Bull
garians have evacuated Uskup. Salon
Xxi advices tell of fierce battle along
the Veles-Komanosv front, with the
Bulgarians retreating. Hopes have
revived that the Serbians will be able
to reform their line on the Monster
front. The Germans having effected
a junction with the Bulgarians, the
Allies may turn their attention to
cutting Constantinople communica-
tions, instead of endeavoring to re-
lieve Constantinople. Riga and Dvinsk
retain the chief German objectives on
the eastern front. Comparative quiet
prevails on the other fronts.

Massachusetts Had a School
Horror this Morning
AT LEAST TWENTY LOST THEIR LIVES AND MANY OTHERS
WERE BADLY INJURED
(Associated Press)

Peabody, Mass, Oct. 28.-In a fire
which started in the st. Johns par
ochial school here shortly after it
opened today, possibly fifty children
lost their lives and many others were
fatally hurt. There were over six
hundred students at their desks when
an explosion occurred, apparently in
the boiler room of the school build
ing. The flames spread rapidly and
before the children could get out of
the rooms the doors were chicken
with the terrorized pupils. Many
were trampled under foot by their
fellow scholars and others were over
come by smoke. Many jumped from
the windows of the burning building.
LATER REPORT lessons THE
NUMBER OF DEAD
The death list will probably not be
over thirty, twenty bodies having been
recovered at IL o'clock. The children
became jammed in the vestibule,
twelve bodies being found there. The
students ranged from seven to thir-
teen years of age. The mother super
ior, Sister Aldegon, smelled smoke
and gave the alarm. The sisters said
the children marched orderly until the
leaders made the mistake of rushing
into the vestibule instead of out thru
the rear doors, as ordered. Some
child uttered cry of fear which was
taken up by. others, and the sisters
were unable to stop the panic which
seized the children. The vestibule
was jammed with the living and dead.
Firemen were unable to force an en-
trance and are in doubt as to the exact
origin of the fire. All sixteen of the
teachers escaped.

OCALA'S BRIGHTEST EVENING
Public Square Was Thronged
With Happy People
CITIZENS AND THEIR FAMILIES TURNED out IN FULL FORCE
TO MAKE MERRY WITH THE old SOLDIERS

Never in the history of Ocala has
there been such happy crowd on the
public square as on Wednesday eve
ming, and never has that part or any
other part of the town looked so
bright and pretty.
Superinten' Mt Caldwell of the city
electric plant had carried out his con-
tract, and the square was radiant
with lights most advantageously and
tastefully distributed. The entire
space was radiant without being glar-
ing, and the public illumination was
aided by most of the business men,
who lit up the fronts of their stores.
The visitors were out in force, and a
large proportion of our own people
were also present.
Next to the illumination, the chief
cause of happiness was the band.
This, under the direction of Prof.
Chattaway of Palatka, rendered the
finest music for over two hours, and
receiving encores again and again.
The program was as follows:
Dixie.
Gippsland march.
My Tom, Tom march.
March.
Southern Star overture.
Sprinkle Me with Kisses two-step.
Spirit of independence march and
two-step.
Virginia Reel, Star collection.
Moonlight on the Nile waltz.
Everybody Rag ragtime.
King Rose overture.
King Over All march.
Master at Arms march.
Hello Frisco two-step.
Finale, Dixie.
Immediately after the music began,
the space in front of the Ocala House
was roped off, and soon several merry
couples were whirling in the dance.
As it was an innovation, not as many
danced as wanted to, but all had a
good time, either dancing or watching
the dancers.
Some of the veterans went out and
shook a foot as lively as anybody, and
one old soldier received great ap-
plause for the rendition of one of the
double shuff1es with which he and his
comrades whiled away many weary
hours around the campfres over hall
a century ago.
Following are the bandboys who SC
efficiently aided in the pleasure of the
evening:

Clinton Farmer Completing
Model Barn For Dairy Herd

Clinton, Nov. .3.-Frank McDermott
living Just north of the Elvra road
two miles west Of Clinton, can boast OF
one OF the best dairy barns In eastern
Iowa, at least he will be able to dc
this as soon as the one under construc-
ton Is completed. 1t will be the most
complete and sanitary in every manner
which has ever been built in this Sec
ton Of the state. Contractor Edward
Kreiger, of this city, is now completing
the job which has been progressing
since last June. 1t Is built of concrete
to the top of the walls, the walls being
solid to point four feet above the
ground after which hollow tile is used
and stucco finish applied. Eighteen
men. have been employed since last
June under the supervision Of Fore
man Anderson and when completed
will be what the progressive up-to-
date farmers of Clinton county de-
mand. The whole appearance Is one OF
beauty and has caused much comment
over the entire county.
The entire barn is concrete, with
the exception of the roof and 1t Will
last lifetime. The barn is 120 feet
long and 3S feet wide and at the
north end is located two silos, one at
each corner built as part of the barn,
where forty acres Of feed can be
stored. At the same end are two feed
rooms both measuring 24x3S feet, while
the remainder of the first floor Is de-
voted to manger room for the cows,
with q capacity of forty head.
Has Entire Plant.
Mr.. McDermott. who expects to en-
ter into the dairy business on an ex-
tensive scale in the spring, did not
stop at the dairy barn but is erecting
a milk house and an ice house of the
same architecture in the immediate
vicinity.
The barn is considered model. The
entire structure Is built with an idea
for sanitation and the whole interior
of the stables is concrete and steel,
with the exception of the window cas-
ings. The floor and side walls are all
concrete and the ceiling will be plas-
tered SO that no wood will be exposed
there. The stalls are divided OF by
steel bars and the managers are built
in q long concrete trench with steel
partitions which may be lifted out
easily as they are fastened by springs.
The floor plan Of the barn is in four
sections, ten cows to section, with
bull and COW pen located at the north
end.
Sewer pipes are run at different
places in the floor and the complete
sanitation Of the place is we'll taken
care of. The barn can easily be washed
with a hose as a large tank. the width

made as easy as possible for the help.
On each side large feed conveyors have
been installed so that the feed can be
pushed along in front of any manger
it may be/desired. In the center OF the
barn, at the rear Of all the stalls,
q manure carrier will be installed so
that all of the refuse may be easily
and quickly disposed of.
Electric lights and running water is
another feature Of the barn. The water
is furnished by the large tank located
at the top Of one OF the silos while all
Of the electricity which will be used
will be generated by gasolene plant.
The King system of ventilation Is used
which allows the fresh air to come into
the bottom of the barn and the foul
air go out Of the top via four large
stacks which have the same draft as
chimney.
Large Storing Capacity.
In the loft of the barn, which COW
ers the entire barn and is twenty-eighl
feet high, vast amount of hay and
other feeds may be stored. In the
north, or front end of the barn, are
located some Of the feed bins together
with two large hay chutes where the
hay is thrown to the lower floor. The
walls of the barn are concrete clear
+ to the roof and the roof is Of the high
variety. All Of the most modern COM
planes are used for the benefit Of the
help. The barn will be completed in
, about ten days. Mr.. McDermott does
the capacity but will start out with
about the same number Of cows he has
at the present, thirty odd head.
| Other Buildings.
J Within few feet of the barn is To-
Gated the milk and ice houses, standing
side by side. The milk house is of the
same construction as the barn twenty
feet wide and twice as long. It has
basement room for boiler and cooling
system, the drippings from the ice
house going into large tank which is
used to cool the milk, having around
it ice water at all times. The two
, rooms above the ground are devoted to
the storing Of milk and the bottlins

chinery, also the storage cans. The ice
, house will have a capacity of fifty
tons. The milk house is now being
built and the ice house will be built in
the near future The entire plant will
be ready for occupancy about Christ
mas.
When Mr.. McDermott starts his
dairy he expects to use the latest and
most sanitary methods known and the
human hand will be used as little as
possible. A mechanical mixer will be
used and the milk bottles in the milk
house will be filled in as few oper-
atoms as possible. 1t will be un-
doubtedly the best equipped dairy in
this section Of the state and will be
plant that will last much longer than
