declared a strict quarantine against

permitted to stray from the wharves.
1t is said that the sanitary grounds
upon which the quarantine is based
are merely subterfuge The Pan

keep out undesirable, revolutions

and the quarantine serves the pur-

be obtained at Savaniila and Carta-

The battle had hardly begun when the Per

to one, pulled themselves together and by sheer
mass broke through the Greek center. But this

employed strategy, making his line weak at the
center, and allowed the Persians to break It.
Then with his heavy masses at the ends he
ground the Persian wings to pieces and fell upon
the Persian center. The most stubborn lighting,
