ReWvlNa ITS FORMER GLORY.


| Remarkable Progress of Modern Athens
in MISUNDERSTANDING the Turk.
| Nobody who has known Athens for long,
or who knows the real resources of the coun-
| try of which she is the capital, can be disap-
| pointed with the progress made Few cities
have improved more during the last twenty
| years The government has introduced COM
| pulsory education on a most extensive scale;
| railroads are being opened; drainage and the
| planting of trees have received great atten-
| ton, and the sudden breeze of patriotism
| which has lately passed over Greece and puz-
zled Europe will doubtless bear its fruits in
greater unity of purpose. Perhaps the real
| evil which, more than anything else, has
| checked the progress of Greece during the last
| half century has been its constitutional gov
ernment
There are many Cavours in Greece, Tri-
coupis is a Cavour with English ideas; but
| unfortunately Greece is not ruled over by a
| Victor Emanuel, nor has she yet produced q
Garibaldi Everybody in the small kingdom
| is, as of old, politician, and the consequence
of this is that ministries rise and fall and
elections take place with rapidity which
might even astonish us. The one point on
which all Greeks are agreed, and which has
been taught them by late events is, that if
they are ever to hold their own in the Balkan
peninsula, they must have more territory.
They crave for the fertile plains of Epirus
and Macedonia; for something that will give
them a chance of development and the means
Of existence on large scale.
The place where the Greek is seen to the
greatest advantage is not at Athens, where
mass meetings will one day cheer for DEFY
annis and the next for 1ricoupis, but at Con
stantinople. There he is, so to speak, on the
defensive, living in the midst of the great
destroyer of his race and freedom. Here his
commercial propensites and industries have
brought him to the fore,
The ''unspeakable Turk" who loves money,
but hates making it as bitterly as he hates
the Greek, who can make it, has given him
in return for money everything that he asks.
This has enabled the Greeks to attack the
Turks with the above mentioned weapon of
education. Concessions for Greek schools all
over the rotten empire have been literally
bought. There is scarcely Greek village in
Macedonia, Epirus, the islands and the coast
villages of Asia Minor which has not been
supplied with schools for both girls and boys,
either through the munificence of rich Greeks
or through the clerical and monastic infu-
ence, which in its day has played SO valiant
a part in the conservation of the Hellenic
language and the Christian religion. -Fort-

The reason given for the Burmese being
permitted by their religion to eat all kinds Of
animal food is that Buddha, the founder,
when he abolished caste distinctions at the
same time abolished all restrictions on the
variety of food 10 DE eaten. The sacred cattle
even were not excepted. These regulations
created wide gulf between the Buddhists
and all other Oriental sects the former being
the only sect allowing such latitude When
Mohammed founded his religion, at a later
date he modelled it on that of the Hebrews,
ordaining that the hog be especially an UNI

ippine islands, "that native will sell his
shirt at any time for a rooster and l am
rather inclined to the belief that there are
more game ROSTERS than shirts on the island.
Walk two or three blocks and you will meet
at least dozen natives, each with rooster
under his arm. Every bird has piece of
Irvine about a yard long tied to one of its
legs while at the other end is wooden peg
about three inches long. When the owner
wants to enter a house or has any special
work that requires his temporary absence
from his pet, he sticks the peg in the ground
and the fowl is securely picketed One can
see ROSTERS thus anchored at almost every
turn when walking about the town. Natives
meet on the street, and, forgetting the bust
ness they may have on hand, set their birds
down and Immediately there is contest.
know Of one place on Iris street, and
there may be others in different parts of the
city, where an immense building is devoted
to cock fighting, a license being paid to the
government for the privilege. The building
covers about 200 feet square and is built of
bamboo with the roof matched with grass
An admission fee of about ten cents is
charged, and hero ROSTERS are fought every
afternoon from l o'clock until dark. Steel
gaffs are used, and the sport is about as
brutal as it is anywhere. The crowd yell
and bet just as they do on an American race
course While the amusement is less brutal
than bull or prize fight, it is bad enough.
Next door TO our house resides native who
is evidently a sort of game bird nabob. He
has an Enclosure in which he keeps twelve or
fifteen ROSTERS, and he gives them as much
care as a fast horse fanCier would his ami

like Enclosures, while others are picketed on
the ground, which is kept carefully swept.
Mornings and evenings he and several other
men and boys groom the birds, discuss their
good points and let them fight little. DC
casonally one of the birds pulls his peg out
of the ground and jumps on his neighbor.
Immediately the whole establishment is in a
turmoil-the chickens cackle, the children
run out of the house, and the talk heard in
