'TEUTON ARNIESIN
! R0UMANIA JOINED.
Forces Closing IN On Bucharest
Are Merged.
CONTROL ALL ROADS TO CAPITAL
Macksnsen Made Chief Of invading
Troops After Argeshu River
Battle Is Won.

London, Dec 5.-The armies of the
Teutonic allies fighting in Southwest
Roumania, with Bucharest their main
objective, have joined hands under
the leadership of Field Marshal Won
Mackensen, from the Danube in the
south to the northwest of Bucharest,
where, coming through the mountains
GUS region, they have reached the
town Of Tregovistea.
Berlin announces that the battle of
the Argechu river has come to final
conclusion, with the Teutonic allies
the victors. All along the front they
are drawing closer their net toward
Bucharest
With the capture of Tergovistea,
and, farther south, the driving of the
Roumanians beyond the railroad juno
ton town Of THU, the forces of the
Central Powers now hold intact all
the railway lines running into Blu
charest from the west.
The Predeal pass, running north
from the capital into Pennsylvania, is
the sole remaining railway connec-
ton in Wallachia, partly in Roumanian
hands, and with the Teutons now
nearly astride this line at Breza and
rapidly advancing, this route seems
likely to be taken from them.
Roumanians Badly Defeated.
To the south and southwest nf Ri.
charest, the forces of Field Marshal
Won Mackensen have inflicted heavy
defeat On the Roumanians, and cap
tured the town Of Gradichtea, twelve
miles from the capital
In Dobrudja and in the northwest
along the Bukawina and Transylva-
MAN fronts, violent fighting is in prog
ress.
Berlin admits light progress in the
northwest by the Russians. In the
Carpathians, south of Joblonitza, the
Russians captured another height.
Aside from the Macedonian theater,
little fighting of moment has taken
place.
Artillery duels and small maneuvers
by patrol parties have featured the
fighting on the Austro-Italian front

APPROVED BY KING GEORGE
Reconstruction Of British Cabinet |.
Authorized

London, Dec. 5.-Premier Asquith
announced in the house of commons
that King George had approved a re-
construction Of the government.
Mr.. Asquith stated that the recon
struction of the government involved
no departure in any shape or form of
the policy pursued since the beginning
of the war
He did not deny that the resigna-
tons of all the ministers were in his
hands.
The decision of Mr.. Asquith, on the
advice of the war secretary, David
Lloyd-George, which is supported by
other members of the ministry, to re-
construct the cabinet, is believed to
have saved the coalition government
ngain and insured more vigorous
prosecution of the war.

DOES FIRE PREvEN-
TON PREVENT?


This question is especially peril
nent after the nationwide celebra-
ton of Fire Prevention Day, October
9Th.
Here is the answer in part.
New York City in 1915 had 1910
fewer fires than in 1914 and de-
crease in fire loss of $2,460,793. The
per capital loss in 1915 was $50 less
than in any former year, and the
average loss per fire was $140.58 less
than any previous year on record.
The fewer fires and lower average
loss per fire are attributed to sys-
tematic fire prevention work.
Chicago in 1915 showed a decrease
in number of fires of 1888, and in
fire losses of S906,605 from 1914,
which speaks well for its fire pre-
vention.
Cincinnati is interested in fire pre-
vention. In 1914 it had 2,13S fires
and a fire loss of $699.473. In 1915
it had 1,7OS fires and a fire loss Of
$365,57O, showing a decrease Of 20
per cent, respectively, on the two
items.
Milwaukee, whose fire department
is doing good fire prevention work,
in 1914 had 1851 fires and a fire loss
Of SIT, 946. In 1916 it had 1,679 fires
with total loss of $4S7,0O9 In 1913
its fire loss was $953,477 These fig
ures again show a marked decrease.
By reason of the very general
Sane Fourth, and s'Sane Christmas
propaganda, these holidays, year by
year have shown a smaller fire loss
and fewer deaths and casualties.
These are encouraging items, but
there is still need of the broadcast
kind OF fire prevention work. For
instance, 1915 had dwelling house
fire loss in the u. S. of $39,591 ,227.
Of this total $6,322,813 was due to
defective chimneys and flues, a cause
which should have been discovered
and remedied.
With reduced fire loss has come a
lower average insurance rate In this
state the rates were materially re-
duced on residence properties, and
other schedules are adjusted to new
and better conditions.
Is this saving Of property, lives
and insurance Premiums worth while?
Yes, Fire Prevention does prevent,
but it can never be really successful
until the public generally takes an
active part. It's Importance should
surely entitle it to more general con-
sideration.

Insurance Com. and ex officio state
Fire Marshal.
