turned on the fire had gained such
headway that it could not be
checked. The total loss of the two
buildings was approximately $4,000

The boys who occupied the Meeks
home were attending a lecture at the
college building at the time the fire

their home 1t was impossible to save

home and carried most OF the furni-
ture out of the house before 1t was
burned.

contributed to the upbuilding OF civ
ilization, and OF the part they are now
taking in promoting the general prog
ress and welfare of Ireland and Amer
ica. seumas MacManus, the honor
guest told one OF his humorous stor'
les and reeited one of his Irish poems
much to the delight of those pres
ent.

MONTENEGRO is ANXIOUS
FOR THE WARFARE TO End
Speculation is Rife as to the
Attitude Italy Has Adopted
as to the Invasion.
SALOMIKI is STILL SAFE
Offensive of the Teutonic Allies
against the Allies Does Not
MateriaIize.
,By AssoerArro psGss,

LONDON, Jan. Att is authori-
tatively announced today that the re-
ported offensive of the Teutonic al
lies against Saloniki did not occur.
The rumors that the attack had been
begun against the forces of the Allies
apparently originated in the activity
of the French in blowing up the
bridges connecting Saloniki with the
road over which the attackers would
normally travel. Bridges were de-
stroyed by the French not only at
Demir Hissar on the Struma, in the
neighborhood of Series, but also at
Killinder, south of Doiran. All the
bridges destroyed were in Greek ter
ritory.
The rumors that Austria and
Montenegro has suspended hostilities
for the purpose of discussing arrange
Montenegrin soil should be stopped
may be based simply on the fact that
the Austrian advance in Monte
negro has become so slow that
suspicion of suspension Of hostili-
tiesis naturally aroused. Many mill
tary critics, however, are of the
opinion that Montenegro is now in
such position that some form of ar
rangements with its adversary has be-
come imperative.
Speculation is rife as to the atti-
tude which Italy has adopted with
regard to the invasion Of Montenegro
by the Austrians. which constitutes
grave menace to Italian interests. The
fact that Italy's superior feet did not
prevent an Austrian squadron from
assisting in the reduction of Mount
Lovcen which dominates the harDor
of Cattaro, is being commented upon
though experts admit that there is
not sufficient oasis Of information
from which to draw deductions IN the
ma .er and they suggest that ltaly's
action in the present juncture should
be awaited before Judgment is passed
and that action would be naturally
Kept secret as long as possible.
News of the development in the
military operations in Galicia ana
Bessarbia is awaited with much in
teresst here and it is observed that
both sides are unusually retcent with
regard to the operations. Austria
usually sends out the first informa-
tion on the military activities in that
region, but beyond general review
of the Russian offensive movement,
II gives today but little light on the
happenings on its eastern 'front.'
