Ehe Historical Fortress of Janina.
LOUQOn UlODc.

Among all the Turkish possessions
which the European Areopagus has
just gracefully given away none prob
ably will touch the national sentiment
more than Janina, the stronghold Of
the renowned Ali Pasha. The celebrat-
ed mountain fortress is said to occupy
the site Of the Temple of Dodona, but
it has no classical interest in itself. 1t
came into existence under the Lower
Empire under the title of Joannina, or
St. Jonstown, and is now locally known
as Yanina. Its modern history dates
from it's seizure by the young Albanian
chieftain, who, by a rare combination
of diplomacy and reckless daring, OBJ
tanned from the Porte a confirmation of
his conquest. The readers of "Childe
Harold" will remember the portrait
which Byron sketched of this remarka-
BILE man when he visited him at his
birthplace of Tepelen. His enterpris-
ing career began while he was yet a
boy, and after making himself master
of Epirus, and portions of Acarnania
and Etolia, he annexed the Pashalik of
Skodra and reduced the towns along
the Gulf of Arta, one of the most dar-
ing exploits being the storming of Pre-
v4a. Though at one time in league
with them, he subsequently gained
much credit from the Porte by break
ing the power of the Klephts, the rob-
Der clans of whom we shall probably
hear of again before the Graco-Turkish
boundary is finally settled. Had the
Turkish authorities ventured to avail
themselves freely of the extraordinary
influence which their formidable vas
sal had acquired, they might have sue
ceeded in crushing the Greek revolu-
ion, but the fall Of Ali Pasha proved
the opportunity for which the Greek
patriots were watching. AS Janina was
the scene of the Pasha's early triumphs
so was It of his death. When his Claw
less law" had become embarrassing to
the Sultan, he was attacked by the Of
toman troops, and having been shut out
Of the fortress by his own followers he
retired to the little island on the lake
which lies at the foot of Metyikeli.
And here his wild career was terminal
ed by assassination in his SD year. In
its palmy days the Pasha's capital
boosted population of $4,000. If the
Greeks make good thei1 acquisition
Europe will look to them to fulfil the
boasts of which they are SO prodigal
and restore somewhat of its lost pros
perity.

CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA.
a Simple Weed that Grows by the
Wayside- History of the Cure.
Albany Arru;

1lodLy Argus
A lady handed reporter the other
day a slip of paper asking him if he
would not publish it for the benefit of
the public 1t was found to be simple
but effective cure for that dog-day ter
ror, hydrophobia. The cure, which
great experience has proved to be in
falllble, IS nothing more than the root
Of common weed known as elecam-
pane, stepped in milk. Elecampane
grows in great profusion along many
country roads in this and Rensselaer,
countries. 1t has powerful medicinal
qualities, and milk is we'll known to be
a specific for many poisons. The man
ner of administering the antidote will
be learned by a perusal of the following
history of this simple and wonderful
cure:
In Chester county, Pennsylvania,
lived a German named Joseph Emery,
who used to be sent for far and wide.
when any one had been bitten by a
rabid animal. He went to his patient,
carrying something understood to be a
a root, which he himself dug in the
woods. He MIXED a pint of fresh milk
fresh from the COW, put the root into it,
boiled it, gave it to the patient, fasting;
made him fast after taking it; gave a
second and third dose on alternate
days, and never failed in effecting a
cure. In some way his secret trans
pired, and the root was known to be
elecampane.
The story, current in the county,
that an old German made the discovery
in the days of Penn, and applied to the
Pennsylvania legislature for a grant of
$500 for making his secret public. His
offer was treated with contempt, and
he resolved that his secret should die
with him, but drunken son knew it,
wrote out the recipe, making number
of copies, and tried to sell them at 81 a
piece. He only succeeded in selling
two, one of these to q man who made
such effective use of it. So we'll did he
establish the local reputation of his
specific, that in his neighborhood folks
were not afraid of mad dogs. This
man never failed to cure or prevent n.y.
drophobia. In one case the spasms had
begun before the first dose was given,
and the patient recovered.

an experienced observer, closely re-
sembles a suppressed grin. Perhaps
the thought fitted through his mind
that it might be decidedly harder for
him if he did. "But time, sweet one,
will remove all obstacles"
Footsteps were heard approaching,
and they babe each other goodnight
hastily. The man paused to whisper:

thousands Of women, who, viewing life
through the medium of boarding.
school experiences and sensational
novels, fell an easy prey to the moral
wild beasts that wait in every lifc-path.
Sad-eyed, hopeless outcasts now, whose
feet are swiftly treading the downward
path from which society says sternly,
''Thou shalt never turn back" If the
mothers of our land would pause and

A.ROMANCE OF THE BICYCLE.

l saw him but a moment,
Yet methinks see him no
With Il look of resolution
Upon his manly brow.
He did not say, 'Oh: give me,
Give me my Arab steed"'
But, "How much an hour, sir:
For Il velocipede'
\ trusty bicycle, Imean.: While she his maid

Stood near, and waited gracefully, with proud
expectant air.
lAlack and welladay,
That I should hay't to say.
The vehicle once hired,
1t took two stalwart men
TO mount him ont. And then,
In wrestling with the limp top-heavy Knight
For who can sit on nothingness upright
The pair were woful tired.
And then!
A,Our hero with one kicking thrust
And frantic clutch, lay doubled in the dust;
The bicycle-what wonder!-
Adroitly slipped from under,
And courtcsicd to the crowd,
Who laughed and cheered aloud.
No coward he Light az the mist,
plague take the bicycle!' he Kissed.
Then, louder to the eager maid,
ri ride anon Be not afraid
Her answering glance his Gilpin soul cnthused,
As, mildly daring, grim, but sore confused
lie left his helpful masters of the horse:
And, staring blindly, started on his course.
lie felt her sparkling eye,
And heard her proud goodbye
\ promise bright of bicycle renown
And then he felt the world turn upside down,
And he beneath it lay: a dusty wreck:
A savage human speck;
While the great wheel delighted to be freed,
Went circng off, with whirling humping speed
4 very damaged bicycle indeed.
All, many amocking laugh went up!
It was u fateful day.
The maiden hailed street
And rode silently away.

Falling Into a Bed Of Snakes.

JACOB IERWILLGER, a farmer in the
Shawangunk Mountains, New York,
tells OF a desperate encounter he had n
icw days ago with rlttlesnakes. A
large part OF Terwiligors farm is
planted with apple trees, and it was
while gathering apples that hc discoy-
cred the snakes. In the middle of the
orchard lay an old log, Terwilliger
mounted the log, but in leaning over
10 grasp a limb he lost his balance
and the lor rolled over, throwing him
to the ground. lie fell on his side di-
rcctly in the track OF the log, aud in
the very center OF that track was q bed
Of rattiesuakes. More than one of the
snakes attacked him before he reganed
his feet, aud one was fastened In his
clothing His twolve.year old son, who
was near, was OF little help, but Ter
williger got a rough stick and attacked
the snakes. Many OF the snakes showed
fight and one biz one bit ona OF Ter
willigor's hands, But Terwilliger, IN
less than an hour, killed eight rattle
snakes the largest measuring live feet,
and having seventeen rattlos.
Terwilligor still exhibits two scars
on his hands He says be lost some
blood from the wounds, aud hurred
home, but he lost consciousness as he
reached the farmhouse door, and fell
forward. His wife took him in.
"But, by gracious, thought was all
done for he said.
