LONDON, March 13. Myalory en velops th'o progress of Field Marthall on, JllndenburR's latent advance Into Poland, but It Is evident that the asl forces alouft the lino fro mtho NIemcn to the Vistula can. not much longer lie kept from declalvo contact unless Uio decision of the, German offen she undergoes a radical change. May AtUelc AVai"w At jireient the meagre Information coming through or tho operations In tho eastern arena Indicates that the nermann have been successful In the forest of AURiutowo, whence the nasal-inn have fallen back under the-Rtins of Oroilno. Further to the south, In the Mlawa region, tho Gorman ad vance has been stayed, and tho ttus fdana are Initiating an advance on tho northern bank of tho Vistula In tho direction of Plock. So far as the Hermans are concerned, howover, all of these movements may bo abandon ed and Central Poland again become tho scene of a determined attack on Warsaw. It Is recalled that Field Marshal von HIndongurg never has boon fond or moving far from his lino of rail communication. IJtclirvin PrwTpysl A new phase of the campaign In the vmt has developed, In an altompt by Austro-Ocrman forces In. Gallcla to rejlevo Przcmysl. For this purposo the center has been sniffed westward following tho recent Ineffective move ment Inasterp Oallca. and troops have been concentrated to relieve the siege of the Gallclan fortress, whose resistance month after month to the Incstlng Husslan army has been one of tho striking episodes of tho cam paign. In tho Carpathians the Russians apparently aro not abandoning their offensive nttttudc. for they aro mak-lng-Hdespcralo counter attacks with tho greatest success, according to of ficial advices from Petrograd. Tho region of tho principal Russian offen sive Is near Lunkow Pass. Hero tho Russians claim heavy captures of prisoners and guns. On tho other hand. Vienna reports tho failure of Russian counter attacks and the tak ing of many Russian prisoners as a result or bitter night righting In tho Carpathians. Along Western l-Yont T-aat nights Paris official an nouncement aald the Drltlsh success at Neuvo Chapello was more sub stantial than had been reported, that the French wero making themselves secure In new trenches In tho Cham pagne country, and that the aerial bombardment of Westendo had been affective. In Franco and Belgium offensive operations at present rest chiefly with the allies, whose activities aro interpreted In London as preliminary to a general attack In the spring. In Rclglum, Champagne and the Argon no separate movements aro under way although apparently little ground has been galued except that won by the (Ilrltlsh near Neuvo Cbapelle. HIKERS-VISIT OPP; IE, JACKSONVILLE If Dofljiito tho threatening weather of last week, n respectable number of mountulu climbers wore on hand Bun day afternoon to enjoy h trip to the Opp mine, 47 being present. Tho club now has a membership of paid up members. Coffee was served by tho commit tee consisting of Miss G. Hlnsman, Mrs, R.

Kcnador, March 15 Ueforo tho Spaniard came to the western coast of South America, Hcu- ador was Inhabited by a Incai, In their civilization, lint when Plzarro took nation called tho Caras, a peo ple Blmllar to tho possession of tho great Inca empire and executed Its king, he sent one of his lieutenants to capture tho kingdom of Quito, which was accomplished with llttlo difficulty. Then aetordlnl to Ihelr usual cus tom, the Spaniards proceeded to take possession of tho estates of the In habitants and portioned tho land out among themselves, and tho province remained under tho same rule as Peru for some years. It afterward was tossed back and forth between New Granada, now Co lumbia, and Peru, and early In the nineteenth century began to movo toward Independence These efforts met with varying success but finally In 1S30 the constitution of tho re public of Ecuador was proclaimed, and has since continued with as little friction as could be expected In a South American country. This constitution Is qulto liberal, wltu the tamo rights granted to for eigners as to citizens, and Is progres sive In Ita allowing to women the samo rights as Ecuadorians, and the frco administration of their property even when married. Foreigners may acquire property, and may establish banks under the samo conditions as the natives, and as funds set asldo for the public debt cannot bo diverted for other pur poses, this must serve as a guaran tee or public credit. In addition to the usual depart ments of a republic. Is the depart ment of public Instruction which has control of all public and private schools, and other educational Insti tutions. Since the school of fine arts, conservatory of music, and na tional library and astronomical ob servatory are mentioned as Included as among these, one might conclude thnt Ecuador Is a very highly cul tured nation until reading in the president's message that these were rounded within a very few years. Tho postal, telegraph, and telephone systems arc under tho supervision of this department, as aro also matters relating to agriculture, commerce and general industries. At Guayaquil, the chief sea port, tliero are two telephone systems with 400 subscribers, and long distanco bItvIco to Quito, tho capital. Tho post office service is said to be qulto efficient and well administered, and tho postal money order system has been Installed within a year or two. Ecuador has an estimated area of 110,000 square miles, or equal to New York Tfow Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland combined. Its imputation of about a million and a half Is almost wholly uear tho nar row coast on tho steep western sides of tho Andes. The eastern part, be ing a part of tho great eastern plain, must Jo well watered and fertile, but Is little explored. Thcro aro five sea orts. Travelers have given this city the unenviable reputation of being "tho pesthouze of the continent," It hav ing frequent and serious epidemics of malarial and yellow fevers. It stands in an unually bad loca tion among swamps at the mouth of a rlvor, but since Havana, Panama, and other such places have been mado habitable, It seeniB not impossible that conditions may be Improved hero, Indeed, steps have already been taken In this direction. Tho government of Porn In 1912 invited Col, Gorgas, whono wonderful worn In the sanitation of tho canal zone and of Havana has mado him famous, to come and Inspect the sit uation In Guayaquil and suggest plans for Its improvement. Ills re port caused the chamber of deputies to authorize a lonn or 110,000,000 In gold for the work of sanitation which la to Inciudo a now sewerage s) stem and modern water works. Quito Is alto planning for a rom pletp now erase nyntom, under tho di rection of a German firm. Among other rccont Improvements lit Guayaquil aro tho erection of a two-story municipal building of ro enforced concrete to co3t $240,000 and tho placing of un order for the Installation of electric lights In tho city, Tho generating plant Is to be 55 miles up the rlvor Chlmbo, tho current In to be brought to the bank opposite tho port of Guayaquil, whonco In nubiiiorgotl cables under tho river, ouo and a quarter iiiIIch wide, to Guayaquil.

SIN ACCEPTS CARRANZA S APO L Y The Inland cities of Cuenca and Chone arc also considering putting In electric light plants. So It would seem that thcro might be opportun ities for engineers, builders, and those Interested In other enterprises connected with tho Improvement of a country. A wireless station has recently been installed also at this port of Guayaquil. In 1312, tliero were SCr miles of railroad In all Kcnador, and 297 miles of this wero Included In the ono road from Guayaquil to tho capital, Quito. This road was completed In 190S, and regufar trains make tlm distance In two dnvs. A shorter lino from tho coast to the capital Is now under construction opening up an exceedingly fertile country, which now yields lmmenso quantities of cacao, although capablo of further de velopment. Several other roads aro also being built which will surely be a great factor In bringing to market many of the mineral and agricultural pro ducts in which Kcnador is so rich An active river and coast service Is carried on by the many small boats Jufl Hep Needed to Over- including sicawt-rn, .niui icwem and canoes. Most of the rivers aro navignblo for a considerable distanco Inland, the Guayas, at whose mouth Guaya quil Is situated, allowing th'o pass age of steamers for !0 miles and or smller ve.vtels for 200 miles. Tho eastern part of Ecuador may ho reached from Hrazll by means of tho Amazon and Its tributaries; but II Is very llttlo developed.
