Remarkable Progress of Modern Athepi
i'm Observation-Disclosures t1,o I'LL

Remarkable Progress of Modern AtE,eps
in MISUNDERSTANDING the Turk.
Nobody who has known Athens for long
or who knows the real resources of the conn.
Try OF which she is the capital, can be disap-
| pointed with the progress made. Few cities
nave improved more during the last twenty
years. The government has introduced com.
] pulsory education on most extensive scale:
railroads are being opened; drainage and the
planting of trees have received great atten-
tion, 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 a
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 a 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
HI4ey are ever 70 nOLu Jnelr 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 chance of development and the means
of existence on a 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 Dely-
annls and the next for Tricoupis, 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 propensities and industries have
brought him to the fore.
The ''unspeakable Turk, j" 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 a 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 bovs
either through the munificence of rich Greeks
or through the clerical and monastic infu-
ence, which in its day has played so valiant
part III the conservation Of the Hellenic
language and the Christian religion-Fort-

A EIrst Class nrnnon Rihnr-

A first class flash rider or bronco buster

no man can hope to grow old; his work being

1t in such limited time a good rider is n
good rider all the world over; but an east-

bronco buster have so little in common with
each other as regards style or surroundings.

others work, that it = almost impossible to
get either to admit that the other has any
merits at all as n horseman, for neither
could sit in the saddle of the other or could
without great iliculty perform his task.
The ordinary eastern seat, which approaches
more on less the scat OF n cross country
rider or fox hunter, is nearly as different
from the cowboys seat as from that OF a
man who rides bareback.-Theodore Roose
