Modern Antioch is a miserable collec-
ton of nondescript and filthy dwellings,
half modern, half ancient, with walls
Of mud and roofs of corrugated iron and
machine-cut slate imported from Europe.
The streets are narrow and the pavement
are Governed with filth. There is no
hotel. Strangers who are not so fortunate
as to bring letters of introduction must
seek shelter at a khan, where the cara
vans make their headquarters and the
camels are fed. They must furnish their
own bed from necessity and after the
first meal they will provide their own
provisions from choice. There is said to
be 1900 population, of whom 1900 are
Greeks and Armenian Christians. The
remainders are Turks and Jews.

The chief industry is the manufacture
of licorice from the root we used to chew
in childhood. II is crushed and pressed
and the juice is boiled until 1t reaches a
certain constituency. when it is poured
into molds and allowed to harden into
sticks such as you see in the drug
stores. There is a good deal of leather
work done in Antioch, and there are
several soap factories, but, judging from
appearances, there is no local demand
for their product. Sugar cane grows with
great luxurience. but there is no factory
to utilize it. Some unrefned sugar is
made for local consumption.

Tarsus, the birthplace of ST. Paul. is on
the main coast and can be reached BIZ
a little narrowgauge railway from the
port of Morsina. AS the steamers usually
lie there all day, passengers have an
opportunity to make an excursion to the
boyhood home of the great apostle, a
journey of about two and one half hours
but there is very little to see when you
get there and no hotel. The best way is
10 have the steward of the steamer put
up a luncheon for you TO carry along.
In the time of the Caesars Tarsus was
an important city, with extensive indus
tries and a large trade. 1t was famous
for a school of philosophy, and the mere
fact tina he came from Tarsus gave Paul
q prestige for learning and wisdom. The
population is now reduced to about Is
600. The people are engaged in the manu-
facture of cotton, which grows luxuri-
emily upon the unhealthy lowlands in the
vicinity of Tarsus. The climate is hot
and the city. is unspeakingly filthy
About half the population are Chris
tians.

Antioch the cradle Of Christianity. can
by an all days ride over wretched road
which was built twenty centuries before
by the Romans and looks as If 1t had not
been repaired since. The whole country is
covered with ruins, the result of destruc-
ton by both God and man. This region
is subject to earthquakes, and by them
was the splendid city of ST. PauTs time
overthrown. The crusaders damaged
nearly everything that was left, and in
1872 there was a tremendous shaking
which overturned and effaced some Of
the most interesting relics of Roman
construction. Under Emperor Theodo-
sious Antioch reached its greatest mag
nifcance and Importance, and became the
actual capital of the Roman Empire and
the greatest commercial cit in the
world. The population is said TO have
been several millions, and the city walls
as no wtraced were more than twelve
miles in circumference. In 457 and 458
terrible earthquakes occurred, the tenn
pies and palaces were overthrown, and no
fewer than 100000 people persisted. In 52s
another succession of catastrophes occur
red, with 10000 or more victims. Five
hundred years later, when the crusaders
under Godfrey de Bouillon made Antioch
their headquarters the city was the scene
Of continual conflicts and massacres, fires
and the better part of it was destroyed.

Alexander the Great was the actual
founder of Antioch. He selected it as the
site for temple OF Jupiter, which drew
a large population, and it became the
capital Of the Macedonian dynasty. Pom
pey captured it in the year 81. Many
Romans removed there, the Emperor
Tiberius built palaces and other public
buildings; II was the favorite residence
of Caligula, Trsjan and Hadrian, and
under Diocletian became the most luxur-
ious and magnificent city OF the age. The
Orentes River, which has since filed up
with, salt, was then navigable for Roman
galeys, and its banks were lined with
wharves and warehouses. The commerce
of Antioch extended for mthe pillars of
Hercules to Picking. Caravans from China
and India were continually crossing the
desert laden with merchandise to be ex-
changedfor the products of Europe If

ment is considered an invasion Of the
spirit of the treaty, for. although, he is Of
Greek ancestry, he was born in the
Turkish province of Trebizond. educated
at the court of the sultan at Constanti-
nople, and consequently is a thorough
Turk, with little or no sympathy with
the people of Samos and much more with
their enemies. The people are now de-

REPORT VIOLATION
OF REVENUE Law
Federal Authorities After Eigh-
teenth Street Saloon
Keepers.

Deputy Collector McCue has reported
the firm of V. Donati & Bro, OF Eigh-
tenth and Franknu Streets, for a VIC
la ton of the internal revenue law. The
report has been filed in the Office of Col
onel Charles II. Ingram. revenue agent.
and will be Investigated by him upon his
arrival in the city from Radford to-day.
The United States deputy marshal who
made the investigation leading to the dis
covery of the alleged violation of the
law, reports the firm for selling liquor
on Sunday from another building other
than the one in which the saloon business
is licensed
The only question with the revenue
people is whether Donati & Bro. are not
liable for another license. as if they We're
operating two separate establishments.
The Sunday business is said to have
been conducted in a small hallway in the
rear of the barbershop, No 1ei North
Eighteenth Street. To this place the
Federal officer gained entrance. and when
demanding the name of the proprietor
was escorted to the saloon of Donati &
Bro. No arrests have been made. and it
is probable none will be, as the payment
of the license will adjust the matter so
far as the United States Government is
concerned
