Of New York city. II has become an
established fact that long-distance
transportation BY electric power IA not

distance an enormous number OF peo.

very small cost 10 the company. The
most notable feature Il the lntrodne.
ton Of a third rail. which takes the
place Of the ordinary trolley wire. This
rail- il placed on blocks midway be.

public has. u Is said. been very largely
removed by fencing the roads and for
bidding travel thereon. The rain Il

Very little is known about the modern

far east. They are shrewd spectators
and are the money makers OF tine
Mediterranean. The biggest business
houses OF Egypt are owned by Greeks

lem ana they have large establishments
in Smyrna and Constantnople. They
ate so much brighter than the Turks
that common saying among the latter
IL: From the Greeks OF Alnens, from
the Jews OF Salonika and from the
Armenians everywhere good Lord de-
liver us" 1t is said IN the far east that
one Greek is equal to at least two Jews,
and the Jews have long since given up
coming to Athens, as they can make no
money there. The Greeks pride them
selves on their democracy. They re-
spect the king, but they don't think that
he is any better than themselves, and
they say that they believe so much in
equality among Greeks that they prefer
to have foreigner rule over them, The
sings rule, however, is only a limited
one. Every Greek thinks himself a
