 REVlVEs OLD INDIAN
 TEMPERANCE SOCIETY

After three years of constant toll among the Indians, Father A. P. Ka- shevarofl, of the Russian church, has at last been able to revive the old Native Temperance Society, and sixteen of the influential Indians signed the roll of membership this morning and took the solemn pledge to abstain from all liquors and in- toxicating drinks, and also to give up their old tribal customs.
 Ten years ago the original society died for want of @ leader. The or iginal society was found by Father Alexander Yaroshevich and flourish ed for several years. Father Yaro- shevich died and the Indians were without leader end they soon drift ed away from the fold and the so- ciety disbanded This was in 1905 and the s2OO which was in the treasury at that time was divided among the last members. This sum of money has been the drawback which has prevented the Indians getting started again.
 During the church ceremonies of this week in remembrance of the suTerlngs of the Saviour. Father Ka- shevaroff has been able to work on the better feelings of the Indians add they will reorganize the society The object of the order is not only to get the Indians to swear off on all intox- icating liquors, but also to induce them to divorce themselves from the old tribal and contradictions customs and to adopt the ways of civilization.
 This morning the Indians. number ing sixteen gathered in tho Indian village. and promptly at 7;SO o'clock, clothed in full regalia and carrying flags, marched to the Russian church. where they took the pledge and sign ed the roll

ONLY SHADOW
IS DURAzzO
REALLY NOW
Once a Flouishing Adriatic
Seaport Says the National
Geographic Society.


WASHINGTON. Jan. 1l.-"Dur-
azzo, where the debarcation Of Ro-
man leglons is reported to be taking
place once more, is now scarcely q
shadow OF the flourishing Adriatic
seaport OF before the days OF Christ
and during Roman empire, whose
merchants traded beyond the boun'
daries Of the known world" begins
a study In war geography Just pre-
pared by the National Geographic
Society, which tells OF the Albanian
port that recently awoke to feverish
industry with the landing OF ltalian
troops there for service upon tne
Seryian flank. "At one time Durazzo
then Dyrrachium, was favorite
starting point for expeditions OF
conquering Rome; for the Via Egna-
tia, a great military road, led from
this city to Thessalonica, now Salon
Xxi, and SO, into the Kingdoms OF the
North and East The leglons that
subdued the choas Of the Grecian
world and first brought Rome into
contact with the Slave passed
Dyrrachium.
"Durazzo lies upon the Adriatic,
across from the italian port OF Bari
and fifty miles south from the Al
bantam capital, scutar, or, as the ma
tiyes call 1t, Scodra. 1t is built upon
the rocky peninsula OF Pelu, which
marks off the broad bay OF Durazzo
from the open Adriatic. Old wallis
still surround the city, and the g.
gantic ruins OF an ancient Byzantine
citadel are overgrown with plane
trees. Along the coast, around the
coast, around the town, are the DIS
NAL marshes that made 1t an almost
impregnable point for defense IN
early Roman times. The harbor has
slowly silted up. Two millenniums
of Albanian misfortune are reflect
ed In the present desolation OF the
port.
"Epidamnus, as Durazzo was
called In its infancy, was founded by
a joint colony Of Corcyreans ana
Corinthians In the 7th century b. @
It soon became wealthy trading
center, and hotbed Of political dis
pute: for the Democrats and aris-
tocrats fought such bitter strug.
gle there over the Rights of Man
that Athens, Corinth and Sparta
were drawn into 1t. This struggle
is considered among the contributing
causes Of the Peloponneslan war
Epilamnus became great and popi'
lous. In ,.229 B. G., 1t passed into
Roman hands and changed Its name
Augustus gave the CITY to 9 colony
Of his veterans after the Battle Of
Actlum in 81 B. G., and through the
next four centuries Durazzo enjoyed
its golden age OF prosperity. With
the breaking up Of the Roman En-,
pire, 1t became the shuttle-cock o.
oil the Balkans, and has remained
the sport of conquest-lusty nations e
the present day.
