MONTENEGRO IS INVADED
Monastir. It Is Admitted, Cannot Be Saved, serbians Defending City to Resist All Efforts to Give Civil
 ians Chance to Escape.

London.-The campaign in the Near East is about to enter a new phase, upon which the visit of Lord Kitch- ener to Paris and Emperor William to Vienna, it is believed, will have important effects.
 Lord Kitchener, after visiting the Balkans and Italy, has arrived at Par is for an important series of confer ences with the French staff, while the German emperor has gone to Vienna to see Emperor Francis Joseph and discuss the next move with the Aus trian generals. Presumably it is a question whether the Teutonie pow CTS will attack the Anglo-French forces in southern Se.bia or eoncen- trate in western Bulgaria to meet the threat of Russian invasion from the east and the possibility of Rumania taking sides against her old enemies, Bulgaria and Turkey.
 The Austrians have invaded Monte negro. while the Bulgarians are at tempting to advance 10 Prisrend and Monastir
 With heavy and continuous snow storms reaching the proportions of a blizzard. these operations must be slow. especially as the Serbians and Montenegrins are offering stubborn resistance.
 Monastir. it Is aditted cannot be saved. but the Serbians who are de lending the city are determined 10 re- sist to the last and give the civilians 8 chance to escape. They hold front five miles from the town in the direc- ten of PFilep. from which the Bul. garians, who have crossed the Garas- sou river. are advancing.
 Snow has stopped operations on the Anelo-Freneh front in Serbia. The opposing forces. who are separated by valley a mile across, have lost sight of each other
 There are no details of the Greek reply to the collective note of the en. tente powers demanding facilities for the Anglo-French forces. but dis patch from Athens says it is ceuehed in friendly terms and is regarded as paving the way for the desired settle ment which would enable Greece to her neutrality and not inter 'ere with the intentions of the allies l

Place of Peace" and he thinks that here before an assembled bestial mob the razor blade of the guillotine rose and fell untiring while head after head, mid bitter jest and song, rolled from the gory machine into the great common basket. and the quivering trunks were corded at it's side. Age and youth and loveliness were sacrificed to fierce pas sion on this now serene square in a way that only Rome had equaled.
 Every contrast is found in Paris. and all varieties of excellence. Here is the worlds highest structure. the Eiffel tower This huge shaft of steel is one of the most overpowering things within the city. Forty drafts men worked two years on the 15,0o0 different designs necessary for it's 15,000 sections. Restaurants, shops and a theater are housed upon it's steps and within it's corridors. Ten thousand people can gather here at one time.

In the heart of the city stands one of the worlds most noted of buildings, the palace of the Louvre. It is the priceless art museum of France; and there are contained within it's three departments-s sculpture, paintings and antiquities examples of the highest expression Of human genius. The col leetions of the Louvre. were they of fered for sale. would bring total price so stupendous as to be unbeliey- able. For example, in the gallery of Apollo. among other treasures, rest the diamond-hilted sword of Bona. parte, valued at s400000, the famous Regent diamond, valued at $3,000, 900, the gems of many famous queens of France and the swords and spurs Of Charlemagne.
 lifetime might be spent in study here and libraries might be written upon the treasures which the Louvre houses In the hall of sculpture stands the peerless Venus of Melos, thing more ravishing than any other vision ever hewn from stone. In this hall there are many pieces, of an tiquity and more modern times, the loss of any one of which would be irreparable. Yet the strange people of this city, fired with enthusiasm for a communistic theory, once mined the Louvre, poured petroleum over it and prepared to destroy with gunpowder what it had taken the world more than twenty-five hundred years to produce
