'The funds advanced To Serbia by the
United States government are saving The
lives of the Serbian people, said the Ser
bian minister of public works. DIR. Mont
chilo Nintchitch, who haS been charged
with the expenditure of the advances from
the American government.
DIR. Nintchitch had been telling of thu
various uses the American money was put
10, for the 10000 Serbian prisoner, in
gees, and pensions. But now he turned IL
a story of the cruelty and butchery which
the Bulgars are still prosecuting against
the Serbs.
"Serbia has suffered more than any 9th
or country" said DIR. Nintchiich, "for not
even the ruins of Belgium and the devasted
regions of France can compare with what
Serbia has suffered. The people of Bel
GUM and France had seaports TO go TO and
escape in ships, and they had railways.
But the Serbian people had no ports for
escape. and when the Monastir railway
line was cut by the Bulgars they had no
railway. So they were literally caught in
a trap, with no means of cgres>, and ex-
cept for those who made the exodus across
the mountains, the whole peasant popula-
tion has come under the control of the Bull
gar invaders. Moreover, Belgium and
France have been under the eyes of Eng
land and America, while Serbia l. cut off
from the world, with no knowledge of what
goes on there. and no mail from there for
two years.
"The Serbian peasants have been strip

and live stock has been taken. and their
farm machinery has been destroyed. Men,

Alabama and The Kearsarge

The famous battle between the Ala
 baIna and the Kearsarge took place on June 19, 1864, just fifty-three years ago today. The Alabama left Eng land, where she was built in July 1862 and for two years roamed the seas destroying American commerce. She practically swept the Stars and Stripes. from the seas, and the mari time supremacy enjoyed by the Uni ted States has never been restored. On the night of June 10, 1864, the Ala bama made the port of Cherbourg, France. The Kearsarge, sent to des- troy her, immediately appeared out side the harbor. The confederate yes sel left her moorings on the 18th and as she steamed out prepared for the memorable encounter. The ves- sells were pretty evenly matched as to guns anad crew, but the Alabama s powder was defective and her shots were not as, effective as those of her opponent. The Alabama fought on until her decks were awash and then plunged into the deep.
