The eastern shore line of Adriatic
Sea which continues southwark as
h eastern shore of the Ionian Sea,
the exit of the Adriatio, has been a
seething cauldron of racial strife from
h time OF the Persian and Roman
Empires to the peace conference of
1919" says a bulletin of the National
Geographic Society.
The bulletin calls attention to the
fact that the subsistence of the con-
troversy between Italy and the new
Kingdom Of the Serbs. Croats, and
Slovenes over Fiume. seems merely
to transfer the center of interest
a part Of Albania, which Greece
wishes restored to her domain.
Five centuries before Christ Epir-
us was set off like a little island, apart.
from Alexander's vast domains. with
Macedonia and Hellas and the Ionian
Sea as its boundaries" the bulletin
continues. The name. meaning
mainland was given it to distinguish
it from the Grecian islands which
Corinthians, Athenians and Spar
tans looked upon the Epirotes as bar
barians, though Aristotle believed
Epirus the original home of the Hell
lepes. Today the major portion of
the ancient area is comprised In AL
ban1a, among the youngest and least
known of all the states of Europe.
An oracle and woman won for
Epirus wide renown in the ancient
world. From prehistoric times mes
sages of the gods were received al
Dodona through the rustling of the
leaves on an oak tree where Zeus was
supposed to Turk; and from Epirus
came Olympias, mother of Alexander
the Great, whose sons renown does
not overshadow her own major part
in the history of her times.
ruins of the Dodona temples were
discovered within the last half CEN
fury a few miles southwest of Janina.
According to local tradition the first
message was delivered by a dove
speaking with a human voice from a
tree top. Priestesses were called
Peleaides, or doves.
Rivalry between the oracle of
Zeus at Dodona and that of Apollo at
Delphi became keen. Priestesses of
the former invented new ways Of re-
ceiving messages, including interpre-
tations of the murmurs of a brook,

1t is said by some Bible students that the definitions of these ten names

CELMARS WILL
 BE ON NEXT
 B|SBEE CARD

Declaring that it is his intention card of the same caliber of excel lence as that of Friday night, O. s. French. manager of the Bisbee Ath- letic club, announced last night the main event on that date will be fought either by Johnnie Celmars and Russell Chambers of Douglas, UT Ad WOlgas. former lightweight cham pion of the world, and Chet Neff, lightweight champion of the south west.
 Tho only provision that Russell has stipulated concerning his proposed match with Celmars is that the lat ter make 145 pounds at 3 o'clock in the afternoon of the fight. Celmars fights usually at 146 pounds, but said when he first came to Bisbee. that he was accustomed to making 145 pounds and could fight well at that weight. Bob Sweeney, Celmar's manager, has declared also that he is willing that his protege meet either Chambers or Loughery.
 Manager French has telegraphed Celmars, who will arrive in Los An geles today, and expects reply about Thursday.
 Wolgast wrote to French yester- day, saying that he is ready to appear in Bisbee against anyone under 136 pounds, and asking, if arrangements are made, that some good local boys be given him as sparring partners. Chet Neff has assured French that he will meet Wolgast, so that, with two classy main events in prospect, War ren district fans are certain of see ing the best men that French can bring here.
 French and Frank Lougnery, his matchmaker, are busy also on the preliminaries, and are making ef- forts to bring in some outside talent that will be fitting curtain raiser for the main show. It is probable that Johnnie Meyer, who is becoming a greater favorite here with each fight in which he appears, will be pitted against some good man of ms weight. Bob Collins, whose knock out of Al Mauch is looked by great many fans as an indication that he is becoming experienced and will soon be a man to be reckoned with in the fistic game in this part of Arizona, is also being considered, provided that an even match can be arranged between him and another heavyweight. Collins showed to good advantage in his battle Friday night, and has evidently been paying some attention to the fine points of the game.
 That the fight fans of the district may have a distinct understanding concerning the ownership of the Bisbee Athletic club. it was an nounced definitely last evening that O. s. French, manager, and Frank Loughery, matchmaker, are the oniy men interested in the club. These two are taking all the responsibility,
