means the sum total Of all regions oc-

limits Of Greece. Indeed, their small
and rather barren country would hard
ly support them. Anyhow, from the

Hercules.
Is the modern Greek an adventurer?
Yes: and so was the ancient Greek, as
every scholar knows. Shrewd as a
Yankee peddler, he is always ready TO
dri>s a bargain so cleverly that the
man who gets the worst OF il can
hardly be brought TO consider il quite
honest. He will always stuff his mouth
and ears end clothes full OF the gold
dust of Croesus if Croesus gives him
the chance. Like his Prometheus. he
will keep the good meat of The sacrifice
and give Jove the skin and bones, if
Jove is fool enough to accept them.
This is more true, however, OF the
Greek wan6erer than of the Greek at

truth is that the great cities Of the
classic period were not surprisingly
great according to modern standards
Buffalo is in all probability larger to-
day than was Athens In the time of
Demosthenes. And when It is re1nem-
bered that of the population of the an
cient city the vast majority consisted
of slaves-there were only about 10000
frcemen even under the Athenian de-
mocracy-it is apparent that modern
Athens has decided advantages
Again, the army that vanquished the
Persian host at Marathon numbered
scarcely more than 10000 men. The
standing army of King George is now
more than double that, being about
equal TO the standing army of the
United States. The great army raised
from all parts of Greece to repel the
Invasion of Xerxes is said to have num-
bered 10000. Who can doubt that a
considerably greater force of equally
brave men could be mustered in the
same country now, If the existence of
the nation were again imperiled?
For the Greek of the present CEN
fury, ready at minutes notice to DEFY
the Turk and all the powers of Europe,
is just as valiant as his forefathers.
The race is and always has been i'm

GREEKS AS THEY ARE,
Walker Loveland Calls Them
"Chips OF the Old Block"
Ancient Greece and Modern Greece
Conpsred-AII mpetuous Race But
LEcking Steadiness-Shrewd
as Yankee PeddIcrs.
ICopYright. 1871


When the irrepressible Mark Twain
paid his stealthy midnight visit to the
Acropolis, he actually stopped cracking
jokes and fllching grapes long enough
to deliver a violent TRADE against the
modern Greeks. "a tribe of unconsid-
cred slaves" he calls them; and he de-
clares that ancient Greece and mod
ern Greece compared, furnish the most
extravagant contrast TO be found in
history"
The enterprising author of "Innocen is
Abroad" is not to be taken too seriously,
but here he really seems to be in ear
nest, and his words are most unjust. It
is true that the relative importance of
the Athens of to-day. among the cities
of Europe is small-though it is far
from ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS with the
Athens that was the Eye of Greece"
when Greece was the one enlightened
nation of the world. 1t is true that her
wonderful supremacy of genius has
been quelled by ages of oppression.
But after all, making reasonable allow
ance for altered conditions, the resem-
blance of the Greeks OF to-day to the
Greeks of old is astonishing; for better
and for worse, they are chips of the
old block.
Even in material things, the dimin.
ished Importance of Greece is not sc
much due to change in herself as to
change in the world about her. This is
true to an extent that one who has not
carefully looked into the facts would
scarcely credit.
The population of Athens in ancient
times has been estimated at 10000
souls; and this included the Piraeus, OF
port. The city proper has now popu-
lation of about $1,000, and Piraeus
about IS, goo, giving the same total. The
