(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
SALPNIKI, Dec. 11. (By mall.)
A French soldiers In a steel hat
stopped and looked at us curiously as
we walked along the road.
"Excuse me,'' Jie said In -broken
English, "hut It's so long since Pve
seen a man in clothes like yourB
that I couldn't help staring."
Tile big British guns were boom
ing at two-minute Intervals. French
guns, Bet on nearby hillsides, were
sending occasional shots and once
while we talked a Bulgarian shell
broke on the road a quarter of a
mile oelow us and we saw Boldiers
running from the cloud of earth. It
was a battlefield, in every sense of
the word, a battlefield which, within
24 hours was to be the scene of an
ally retreat. Incidentally I won
der what became of the llttlo
Frenchman.
. "Civilian clothes seem extraordin
ary," he said. "Have some choco
late?" He pulled an envelope from
his pocket, with a postage stan:p
and an address on It.
"ThiB Is something I got in the
mall from Paris today."
'--'r a small piece of the prec
ious chocolate. "Have you hear!
that we're going to move from
here? he said. "The rumor is go
ing around our camp. They say we
are going to fall back to the Greek
border. Haven't jyou .heard any-;
ng about It back In Salonlkl?"
I hadn't. His question was the
first sign of the coming retreat. Un
this spot, the very next day dead
British and f rench soldiers were to
He among the holly shrubs and the
Bttlgars were to charge with bayo
nets, Bhotitlng their cry of "Ne Pret,
ne Nosh." ''
"It's been cold here," exclaimed
the soldier, "but I've been healthier
than I've ever been before In my life.
Why, when the war began I couldn't
stand any hardship. If I wasn't In
bed by 10 o'clock every night I suf
fered all day for It. I had indiges
tion terribly. Now I haven't Blept
In a bod for five months and I eat
anything, anything, and enjoy It.
War heats pills, I tell you."
"All this artillery firing inakcB
mo' laugh today. That big English
gun Isn't hitting nnythlng and there
are three Bulgarian batteries over
there that haven't hit anywhere near
anybody. They ought to send word
to each other about how far they're
missing. If they don't holp each
other out they'll waste an awful lot
of ammunition."
He had to be going nt last. Would
I walk along the road with him?
"Right around 'the turn here
some of the Bulgarian shells aro well
aimed." he said. "They are pay
ing a good deal of attention to this
turn this afternoon"." '
It was like getting ready to jump
into a cold bath to start off with
him. 1 know that after I got my
feet to working they would carry
no along, but the hard part was
not lo make an excuse and return
to the ravine. My right foot start
ed, however, anil then my left and.
fifty feet further on, we passed the
turn and facet4 a mile stretch of
Tond. out along the face of the bill.
Helow us was the valley of Cos
terlno; across It four miles away
were the hills where the Bulgarians
A few soldiers were on the
road, walking Blngly.
'Along hero you may get a shell
any time." said the Frenchman. "1
have to walk along here a dozen
i times a day to get to my dugout
from the kitchen back thero In the
j ravine. Want to seo my dugout?"
I did. and a quarter mllo walk
i along the road brought us to a llt
, tie ravine on the side of which was
I a soldier's home, partly a hole and
ipartly'a tent. Two other soldiers
I in the dug-out were parking up their
; belongings.
"Just to be ready. If we go." they
I explained. On a fire outside tho
dugout was a tin pall, with steamXig
confents. It wasn't coffee; It wnsn't
rum. It was half and half. I must
have had two drinks of It. It had
an awfut bu In tt.
"We get two dippers full of wine
and a half dipper full of whiskey
every day," explained a soldier "and
we need It In the cold, too."
I figured it cut as amounting to
a quart of wine and three fifteen
cent drinks of whiskey.
"Are you a tourist?" asked one
of th"f Frenchmen.
"Mon dleu, you silly!" exclaimed
his friend. "What would a tourist
be ding here? lie's a newspaper
man."
I explained that six of us had been
brought out to the battlefield and
that I had lost the main party, but
that wo were to gather again at
ho waiting automobiles at five o
clock.
"Well, It's time to go then," said
my "friend, looking ut his wrlst-
v :i;ch.
Good luck to you," they all Bald
; : I went uway. I wished them
-'.d luck too, for they needed it
iKuro than 1 did.
What happened to these French
zauvaes 21 hours later when tho Bui
garian rush began, I don't know
Was all the new health of the little
French soldiers the new health of
which he was so proud ended by
a Bulgarian bullet or a Bulgarian
bayonet thrust?
On the hillside, as I returned per
haps a hundred yards from the
French battery which topped the hill
another shell burst.
"They never shoot a shell at a
single man; it's too expensive," my
French friend had told me. They
was a comforting thought. To the
Bulgarians across the valley the little
dois of human beings that passed
singly along thlB road weren't worth
shooting at with shells that cost
about $26 each. It was good to feel
like a dot; to know that though a
New York insurance company thinks
your life is worth some thousands
of dollars, the Bulgars counted It
less than $2o.
Back .at the automobiles the
party was gathering for the depar
ture from the battle ground. Every
one of us had heard from some sol
dier that the .French and British
wore going to fall back. We all
put two and two together on the
way back, remembered all the signs
we had seen during the day the
fugitives, the trains bound for
Greece and fully agreed this: '
"The allies are getting ready to
retreat."
Later in the evening we found out
that we were right.

John Alexander, the Glide mer
chant, made a business trip to Rose-
Durg this morning.
The forestry department reports
the arrival at Rock creek of seven
head of horses which had been held
Bnow bound at lllthee for several
