Although no official confirmation has been received here of the. reported capture by., the . Bulgarian forces of the city- of Monastir in southwestern Serbia, little hope is felt in England that the announcement is premature. Accepting the report as true, the impression is growing m England that the allied forces which were sent to theBalkana arrived too late to render any service to the Serbians. . - The ' Serbian military situa--tion is going from bad to worse. In the north,- the main Serbian -'umy is giving w,ay. slowly be fore the battering of the Aus- tro-Gennan forces, which prob ably would be moving, more rapidly except for weather con ditions. It has been established that the Bulgarians are in Perlepe ami that they made Monastir untenable.

YALE AND HARVARD T Events Have Upset All Early Season Dope Betting Odd ' May Be Even. Cambridge,- Mass., Nov.- 30.-Anx-iety over weather conditions for the Tale-Harvard football game, - caused by yesterday's downpour were dissi pated this morning when the sun rose in a clear sky, with fresh wet -winds blowing across Soldiers Field. On the day of the gridiron classics of; the year, when the football fans look back on the games both Vale and Harvard have played this season, it becomes more obvious than ever how utterly impossible "dope" Is, in these iday and times. Harvard at the beginning of the year, with the wond erful Eddie Mahan to build a team aboutj added to the supreme confi dence: a string of successful years, started the season's drive without single apprehension and the University of Virginia's early victory over Yale made things look easy tor the Crim son' chances in the Yale game. The L Gore aftalr although supplemented by most sportsmanlike conduct, on the part of the Harvard authorities, seemed to remove Yale still farther as a dangerous opponent In the eyes of Harvard, and although the defeat of Cornell brought the Cambridge aggre gation up rather short, the chances of the blue still looked" mighty sum to the Crlmsonltes.' Last Saturday's performance, how- sver. at New Haven, when the Ell pigskin chasers broke down the de fense of the favored Princeton team, linnet the w. k. dope to a large extent, n a speech to tne team ana unuer sraduates earlier in the week Coach their team, saying that Harvard had an "EVEN" chance to win. - ' i Coach Bhevlln arrived at New Haven at an opportune time and his methods have instilled a fighting spirit Into the Yale team that seems to have been lacking for some time.

He said: "Christianity is the only thing to save our nation from anar chy. If crusaders had been true, half a million Armenian women and chil dren would have been murdered by Turks. They are greater than mar tyrs of Nero. War converging In Pal estine as prophesied In Bible. Five miMlon lives already have been lost.

The afternoon service began promptly at S:S0. Dr. Plato Durham of Emory university Atlanta, tJtfl presiding. Dr. Durham although president of this great university ha not lost his love for the old time Methodist singing. The opening song was "Amazing Grace. How Rweet the Sound." Fu'ly 400 Methodist poured their souls. Into this great song of Hethodlsm. Dr. Durham then prayed a fervent prayer for the presence of God and for power to do a great work In the ministry. Dr. C. W.

The farmers returning home yester day discussed the union's resolution on "preparedness" quite a good deal and of the 400 present, more than half of whom were delegates repre sentlng 75 counties, not a voice for an Increase In armanent was heard. Nothing has happened In the coun try since the war that furnished so much Interest to the national news papers. New York dal'les literally de voured It. Thev hud bwi reading from Don Martin what the second district would do to Kitchln next year when along come the representatives of 40.000 union voters and of the 200 no dofender of the presidential policy could be found. It begins to dawn now that Qon gresaman Kitchln knew what "the folks" are saying and thinking. He has been accusing the news agencies of sending out big stories like the wrecking of 100 German submarines by the Tritlph battle-boats to offset the sentiment for defensive craft like submarines and destroyers. A citizen from that district telsl your corre spondent that Congressman Kitchln searched all the British papers for news of that marvelous story of sink ing 100 German submarines, but not a Briton heard It.

Move Apparently Designed to Prevent Japanese Interfer ence In Case of Trouble In China. WflsVilne-tnn ttnv ft Tirot TH- tain, B'rance and Russia have united j in an effort to add China to the Triple entente in order to prevent the possl- billtv of frartinn in th fntiirn litwopn ; Japan and China and to Dreserve the . peace of the far-east. If China afrree to the nlan. mllltarv I preparation by her In the present war i-i a. . i wi.i not oe expeciea. xne negoua- tlons over the plan thus far are still in the conversational stage with no Indi cations a to China's attitude. Although the United States Is being kept informed of the progress of the negotiations, American diplomats are refraining from participating In the conversations. This sensational development In far-eastern affairs on the eve of the proposed change in China's form-of government from a republlo to a monarchy, has been the subject of confidential exchanges between the entente governments during the last week. Japan, so far as is known, has not yet been consulted, the conversa tions being confined to Great Britain, France, Russia and China, although the entente powers joined Japan in representations to China , for a pot ponement of the establishment of the monarchy, because It was thought J that. such a.chaoge. during the -pres ent troubled conditions might provoke revolution and International compli cations, this latest step by the allies Is understood' not to have bnen- Ini tiated because of the monarchial sit uation alone. ' ' The entente powers consider It es sential that such an arrangement be made In the far-east as -a permanent safeguard to their Interests. The Im pending change In China's form of government has rendered the situa tion somewhat acute. The fear of revolution in China and th possibility of Japanese interfer ence to preserve) have been Impress ed on the Japanese people to an ex tent which has attracted wide atten tion among eastern diplomats. By joining the entente allies none of China's operations would affect the course of the war In Europe, but the movement would effectually guarantee Japaneso abstention from interfer ence in China. Japan' sUltude Is not clear as yet PRIMARY IN TENNESSEE Nashville, Tenn,, Nov. 20. The Democratls of Tennessee are balloting, today on the party candidate for the term beginning March 4, 1017.

DIFFICULT TO SEGURE TEACHER FDR MEDLIKS Nearly All Patrons Withdraw Children on, Account of "Ob jectionable Children." i Raleigh, Nov. 20. The Wake coun ty board of education is unable to hire a school teacher to take House Creek township school In which the Medlln children of the alleged mixture of blood have become prominent, The patrons of the school have withdrawn their children , and the Tucker estate of Raleigh has provided a school building in which a subscrip tion term has begun with two teachers handling 70 children and a third teacher perhaps necessary. The acuteness of opposition to the free school with Its objectlonab'e chil dren Is somewhat reflected in one man's payment of $150 toward the support of his neighbor's children's teachers. The patrons took the old building and hammered Into some sort of shape a house that would serve temporarily. The Tuckers turned over the buildings after making aom'e changes among their tenants. The well-to-do district now has two fami nes, the Medllns and another, who are attending the school when a teacher will stick as long a a week, but pros pective teachers are declining a sa ary of "$1,00 a week" under the condi tions that exist In the face of the Su preme court's ruling that the Medllns ar unmixed as to blood.
