SERBIAN WOME [ N DEPORTED n
 HAREMS
(By BAssociated Press)

LONDON, Sept. 3. - Ten thousand Serbian girls from ten to fourteen years old have been kidnapped and de- ported from Serbia to the harems of Constantinople. to Bulgaria and Asia Minor, says adyices received by NJ. Pashitch, the Serbian premier. who ia now in London.
 l These deportations. said Nj. pssh. itch, have been going on sfnoe Feb ruary, 1916, but the number was very limited until a few weeks ago. Now 1t has been systematized under Bul- garian controllers. and it is impos- sible to predict how far it will go.
 Flight thousand girls have ben sent to Constantinople, and two thousend more to Bulgaria and Asia Minor. Prisoners whom we have taken on the Salonih front tell us that the traffic in our girlhood has grown to he q by- word in Bulgaria and Turkey.
 "The girls are kidnapped and taken away secretly, particularly from the smaller villages, until at present doz- ems of small towns have been quite denuded of the young female popula- tion.
 'I do not think that the Turks are the actual instigators Of this gross violation of the rules of civilized waI- fare All our information indicates that the Bulgarians are the prime movers and the Turks only incider tai beneficiaries of the traffic.
 "The girls are too young to be cf any use for lahoring purposes, besides neither Turkey nor Bulgaria is seri- ously handicapped for labor, ahd in Turkey the use of young women for outdoor work is practically unknown.
 "It is very difficult for us to do any thing to help these unfortunate vic tins. Our affairs in Constantinople and Sofia are now in the hands of the Dutch government, and we have made most earnest possible protests through that government. But you know how difficult it is to get any action from Turkey. We have suggested, for in- stance, that some scheme of repatrla- tion be put into effect immediately. that the girls should be sent back to some place beyond the war zone. But fear it is too late to save them. and that we can only wait in patience until peace comes"

 S|LENCED 
 MINNIE
(By Associated Press)

BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES IN FRANCE, Sept. 4. - Minnie" Is a very forward young lady, who lives as a rule in German front line trenches. She has no pretensions at all to beauty. She is for use not for ornament She is a trench gun, and her projectiles remind one of plum buildings attached to sticks. They fly very irregularly. bu> burst very regularly in the part of No-man's Land lfurthest removed from minnie's tenn porar lodging.
 Just before the latest push around Ymes, there was a particular Minnie located few miles from Ypres, which was more than usually a nuisance. | The British trench was not we'll sited nor very we'll protected. Consequently when Minnie was active she made | things very uncomfortable for the oc- cupants of that British trench. More I over, she had no regular habits, She worked on no plan. ladylike, she did | just about as she wished.
 The young British subalterns hated her with a persistent, pervading | hatred, and concocted many schemes | for her undoing, but to no avail. But one night chance brought into the trench very irritable old artillery of l ficer just as Minnie was active. One of Minnies buildings soiled his boots and thereby aroused in him grim de termination to devote himself to her destruction.
 He stayed in the trench all that night. studying Minnie's location and characteristics, and on the morrow he returned, -f6frowed by his orderly, un coili1gsa wire as he walked. At the trench end of the wire a temporar, telephone was fixed. The far end o the wire led back a mile and hal
 to a battery of field artillery.
 Along about noon Minnie opened III for her midday strafe. Promptly tht lartillery officer verified his obscrva tions of the night before and spoke a few figures into the telephone. 4
 minute later loud boom announced
 the arrival of British shell just acresl
 on the other side of No-man's Land
 The British officer swore softly, aHt
 spoke again into the telephone. Tn,
 first shell had been at least thirt'
 yards off. The second was perhap
 twenty yards on the other side. AgaiI

(By Associated Press)

CORFU, Sept. 5. - The little Greek island of Fano near here has become known to the entente fleets and arm ies as a place where women are for bidden to talk. The island has nor mally a population of 1924 persons, but most of the men are in the Uni ted States, where they work as walters. ..
 The custom of the island for many years has been for the young men to marry the girl they love best, and then after a brief honeymoon. go to Ameri
 can to make their fortunes, returning in few years to their brides. Dur ing this period of the absence of the husband, it has become custom for their wives, women traditional for their beauty, never to talk to men. It is the business of the older women to watch over the young wives, and when strange men approach, as has happened frequently since the war they are met with shower of stones
