CREWS HARD TO GET.
Shortage Of Men Causes Small
Craft to Law Up.

Tho shortage of men for crews Of
the small craft employed in wood, lum-
Der and railroad tie freighting on the
Potomac has become so very acute
that the masters Of two vssels have
laid their boats up. and others are con-
templating the Same step. The schoon-
er, Carrie Revell. Capt. Rison, is lying
in Mattawoman creek and has been
there for several weeks unable to find
two men who are willing to work. 1t
Is stated that Capt. Kendrick of the
schooner Bowen. has laid his vessel
up and has taken employment ashore,
being unwilling to continue worrying
over the problem OF how to get a crew.
Vessels arriving here with lumber,
cord wood and railroad ties have often
Lie for a week or longer waiting men
to unload them. This condition exists in
spite of the fact that dozens Of men
can be seen every day loafing about
the wharves, and to ask one of them
to do days work unloading a vessel
is a serious insult to their dignity.

Famous for Live Stock.

owing to its extremely mountainous
character Epirus has never been a great
reproducing section, but from
ancient times up TO the present it has
been famous for it's fine cattle and
horses, also for peculiar breed Of dog,
the Molossian. In the eastern part of
the district towers Mount Lacmon, the
backbone of the Pindus range, on
which rise three of the great rivers
of northwestern Greece.
"Epirus became world-renoWned
even before historic times on account
of the great oracle of Dodona, the
ruins of whose temples were discover
ed during the last half of the nine
teenth century only a few miles south
west of the modern Macedonian town
of Janina The messages from the
gods were received at Dodona through
the rustlings of the leaves of an oak
tree in which Zeus was supposed TO
reside, but a local legend says that
the first message was delivered by
dove speaking from the tree with a
human voice. At any rate, the priest
Peleaides ('dovesD. Herodotus re-
ports that while on a visit to Egyptian
Thebes he learned that the oracle had
been founded by an Egyptian princess
who had been spirited away by
Phoenicians.
THE Hellenes founded many colonies
on the Epiran shore and these served
as stepping stones to dominion over
the Adriatic. The wealthiest of the
ancient cities was Phoenice, which he
came the head of an Epirotic Learue
after the fall of the Molossian king
dom.
The Molossians, most powerful and
progressive of the fourteen tribes
which inhabted Epirus, were ruled by
chietains who professed to be de-
scendants of Pyrrhus. the son of
Achilles. who was supposed to have
settled in this part of the world after
the fall of Troy.
