Serbians were transported to the
Island of Corfu, off the southern coast
of Albania, where they were supplied
with new rifles and clothing and eff
GENTLY equipped for further service
on the Balkan battlefield. -.
When the reorganization had been
completed, the entente allies sought
permission of the Athens government
to transport the soldiers from Corfu
to the base at Saloniki across Greek
country by rail. This would have cut
down the length of the journey by
some 500 miles, besides lessening the
danger Of attack on the transports by
Teutonic submarines operating in the
Adriatic, Ionian, Canadian and Aegean
seas. Greece, however, steadfastly re-
fused to allow the troops to cross her
territory, taking the stand that it
would be violation of her neutrality
and she is reported to have persisted
in her refusal in the face of threats
made by the entente allies to employ
force.
Two weeks an arrangement was
reached, the entente powers deciding
to transport the Serbians to Saloniki
by sea.

mendous Loss in His
Passing

James J. Hills death at his Summit
avenue home in st. Paul today, news
of which was flashed to the city with
in a few minutes of the time that the
empire builder breathed his last, caus-
ed mixed feelings of regret and sorrow
among his friends and admirers in
Fargo.
A realization Of the fact that the
northwest had lost, in the passing Of
Mr.. Hill, wonderful friend
whose untiring energy has always
been for the upbuilding and develop
ment of the American northwest-was
general.
Mr.. Hills death, the comment of
local people indicates, removes a per-
sonal interest in that great railroad
system which he has builded.
Mr.. Hill, who visited Fargo
frequently, participated in the dedica-

End Came for Northwest's
Best Known Citizen at $50
Unconscious Y Hours
IRELAND'S
TRIBUTE TO HILL

Archbishop John Ireland said:
what can I say that the whole
country is not saying. A great
man has gone from earthly life.
Not only a man Of the rarest tai
ent of mind, a genius such as is
seldom to be seen amid the NOV
ing scenes of humanity, but also
one who has put his wondrous
talent to the services of his fellow
men, whose whole career was
marked with strict integrity and
the highest sense Of honor.
Long shall the city of st. Paul
be honored by the fact that the
great and good man, whose loss
we now deplore, was one of its
sons and citizens. This much,
too, 1 must say in the simplest
truth, that he loved and respected
religion, and held the Christian
faith to be the supreme principal
of human righteousness and hu-
man life. l pray that his soul
may be in peace with his Creator
and Savior"

James J. Hill discovered "the bread
basket of the world" in the Great
Northwest; he led in it's development
from a wilderness into what now
comprises six wealthy states dotted
with 100000 farms; and he blazed
trail for transportation which reached
eventually from Buffalo to Asia, with
a total mileage of rail and steamship
facilities that would nearly girdIe the
earth.
That but roughly spans the story
Of his achievement. .
