By Associated Press.)

Tendon, Nov. % 3.-The west re-
ports indicated the Teutons were
following up their victory over the
Rumanians in the jul valley and
the capture of Graiova and overrun-
ming western Wallachia. Berlin re-
norted progress westward toward
Orsova. The fate of the Rumanian
army in the Orsova region is still
doubtful. Bucharest announced the
Rumanians in the jul valley had
withdrawn and now occupy their
old positions. The Bulgarian war
office reported that Rumanians had
destroyed the Danube bridge at Co
rabia. They fired ammunition stores
there and sank their barges in the
river. Berlin announced that Rus
sian reinforcements had reached the
Rumanians in Transylvania.
Apparently the entente forces
which captured Monastir have been
unable to advance beyond the new
Teutonic positions north of the city.
Sofia recorded the repulse OF en-
tente attacks on the Cerna Band and
to the eastward. This is the only

ported on the Franco Belgian front.

sentence of thirteen months hanging
over his head on charge Of malicious

guilty before Judge Wise.

defendant grinned sheepishly and ac.
knowledged that he didn't know the

him =.
II appears that on Wednesday q
Japanese driver Of a rent car had
some trouble with it and after fooling
with the engine for time left Il by
the curb on KaE1ehameha Avenue and
went home to lunch. Chase had been
watching the man and when he went
tway he took a hand in the job. He
did not know anything about q
machine, but he fooled around until
suddenly it began to back up. *
Desperately Chase strove to stop It.,
working one crank or another, but all
in vain. Meanwhile bystanders called
20 him to do this or that, but Chase
did not know how to do it. The
machine simply went backward faster
han ever, and Chase could not steer
backward. ~.

hind-end first over the sidewalk and
collided with the side of the Hilo
