SHEPHEP1) (United Press Staff Correspondent) SALONICA, Greece, Jan. 1.— (Special)—The last days at Monastic, before its fall, wer? indescribably ex iting. Monastir is really Bulgarian. Talk of massacre was in -h-.* a.r. While the Bulgarian guns boomed within earshot of the town rumors of plans for a general masacrc by the Bulgarians of the few remaining Ser bian civilians fdled the air. The few remaining Serbian civilians were go ing to massacre the Bulgarians. The Serbian soldiers were going to loot the town. Among the Bulgarians were hundreds of Bulgarian soldiers, dis guised as civilians, who at the last moment would mobilize in the town and ravage it. All these rumors found believers. Nish, when the German-Austrian army entered Serbia, decorated with flags of the allies, believing the 1 French would come dashing in on , ; trains and stop the German tide. But ! the days went by and the flags were stained by the rains and became as limp and lifeless as the hopes of Nish j for rescue. Nish finally fell to the Teutons and the Bulgars with the bedraggled flags still hanging. The Serbian folk at Ushkub did the same. Ushkub fell with Nish. Monastir had no such feeling. In Monastir, Bulgarian until 3 years ago, were plenty of folk who would have hung German, Austrian and Bulgar ian flags except for the presence of a few Serbian soldiers who held Monastir with an iron hand. Through the nights before the Bul garians came, they marched the streets in patrols of four. Serbian civilian volunteers stood at all im portant street corners with rifles. Bulgarians found with firearms were considered spies or traitors and shot.* The few Serbians in the town were lords of authority as long as their LUMBER!

Phone Kenai 2 little army of two regiments held Hat buna Pass, 40 miles north of Monastir. On* Friday, Nov. P2, we saw a strange procession pass through the streets. It was a little regiment of Serbian farmers with shovels. In their queer fur coats, woolen stock ings and odd hats, they presented a most peculiar sight. Their long handled, diamond-shaped shovels took the place of bayonets. The long rag ged line marched out of the town. Women and girls ran alongside, carrying baskets of f$od. A few mile3 out they stopped and began to dig trenches under the direction of Serbian officers. This was the first sign that Monas tir was in danger. To the north the little Serbian army was giving way against terrific odds. Sometime soon they would come falling back through the mountain passes and ove» the farm and hills to these trenches the farmers were digging and here make their last stand. The men with the shovels told Monastir the whole story. SAD NEWS WIRED TO REED’S SISTER VALDEZ.—The body of K.
