Our Old Friend, Boy-Ed. (Ansonia Sentinel.) It is no-news to the observant American that Captain Boy-Ed of the German embassy has been implicated in the plots against our neutrality since the opening of the war. The new ct is that the government is now ble to establish what it knew very well from the beginning by legal evi- dence. It appears from statements | made at the trial of officers of the Hamburg-American line that Captain Boy-Ed was the paymaster-in-chief- of all of the German agents engaged in breaking our neutrality laws.

But in the natural indignation that arises against these factionists the people are apt to lose sight of the fact that by far the greater number of our adopted citizens are giving no offense.

(Providence Journal.) Topographical Items With War Interest ‘Washington, D. C, Nov. 27.— Athens, capital of Greece and the present capital of strenuous diplo- macy, the uncertainty of whose fu- ture course is now engaging the breathless interest of all belligerent nations, is described in the following statement issued to the press today by the National Geographic society: “ ‘Better fifty years of Athens than a cycle of Cathay,’ one writer phrases it, and, indeed, in respect to the greatness of its past, the capital of the Hellenes is Queen among all of earth’s cities. In this marvelous city, a clvilization was born and made per- fect and complete in the course of a few generations. It is the founda- tion upon which rests the modern cul- ture of the West; for classic Athens is still the teacher of the world and the final arbiter in things of taste. “ ‘Out of Plato,’ says Emerson, ‘come all things that are still written | and debated among men of thought.’ | It is, at least, certain, that all of the germs of philosophic thought are lo be found in the teachings of the Greek philosophers who sought their followings in Athens, down to the time of Aristotle. In poetry, Greek genius created the forms and left models for all ages. In sculpture and in architecture, Grecian achieve- ments still stand unsurpassed; and the ruins upon the Acropolis sug- gest structural beauties never since attained, while innumerable sculptur- ed masterpieces of the Greeks fili alcoves in all the more important museums in the world. Such was the wealth of sculptured treasures in classic Athens, that one ancient wag declared that it was easier to find a god in the city of Pallas than a man. “To Athenian Socrates, rather than to any other savant before or after him, belongs the honor of hav- ing called into being that inductive, optimistic science, which today forms the warp of our civilization. With the homely, keen-witted and argu- mentative Athenian began that habit of thought which hopes, in time, to discover the answer to all things in the things themselves. So, too, the dramas of the Greeks are still the models of taste after more than twenty-three centuries, and Sopho- cles, greatest of tragic poets, is yet to be outdone. Afschylus, Furnipides, and Aristophanes, all part of the genius of Athens, contributed to that limited inheritance which is common to all the world. In truth, the age of Pericles overshadows the French and Italian Renaissance, the era of Elizabeth, and the golden age of the Moors in Spain. ‘““Athens today is a shrine for the preservation of the memories of the debt which the modern world owe: the ancient Greek Most of the treasures of the ancient city have been looted and destroyed by stranc ers, but enough is leaft to aid the visitor in crystalizing a picture of the city over whose destinies the Goddess of Wisdom and Artifice presided. Persian, Spartan, Macedonian, R; man, Venetian and Turk have plund- ered and ravaged here. Priceless art works and costly marbles have been carried away to beautify other coun- tries or have been wantonly destroy- ed, yet, so rich was the classic com- monwealth that the remains of marble beauty and fragments of its embellishments still thickly strew the whole plateau of the Acropolis and much of the area upon its sides and base. “New Athens has grown up around the remains of the mother-city. At the end of the Greek war for inde- pendence, it was little more than a decayed Turkish village, a few crook- ed byways and poorly built houses. It is now a city of straight, regularly laid-out streets, of graceful boui- vards, airy squares, with many splen- did private and public buildings. Th museums of Athens are of first im- | partance to students of classic art, becoming again an international seat and Athens, before the war, was fast becoming again an international seat of learning. It has developed a cer- tain trade importance in recent year: A great part of the Balkan import passes through Athens, and, in Peir- eous, its port, are situated a number of large mills and factories. The | population of modern Athens is about 170,000." Koprili Described. “Koprili which has been the vortex of the rapid batles fought in southern Serbia between the Bulgarians and the Serbian, French and English al- lies, is described as follows: Koprili dominates the river valley and guards the way Monastir, the last Serbian city and stronghold. It is situated on the upper-middle part of the Vardar's course, in a whorl of ragged moun- tains. The Saloniki-Mitrovitza rail- way passes through the town, and with a short branch line from Salon- iki through Vodema to Monastir, forms the only means of rail com- munication with the outside world remaining to Serbia. Koprili is, thus, a town of great strategic importance; for its possession by the Allies keeps the way open for a re-occupation by them of Serbia. “The valley in which the city lies is a narrow one, and on every side, for miles around, stretch broken mountain lines. The roads through this region are little more than mis- erable tracks through forest angles and over rock-strewn hillsides. The best way in this country follows the river's course, parallel with the rail- way, from Uskup, 25 miles northwest of Koprili, to Karasuli, across the boundary in Grecian Macedonia. “Serbia acquired possession of Ko- prili after the war of the Balkan league against the Ottoman empire Before the transfer of the allegiance, it was a hothed of bian, Bulgarian and Grecian na tionlism-propaganda. The city had a population of about 24,000 at the outbreak of the war, and w de- { veloping a brisk trade in silk. Mul- | berries and corn were the chief pro- ducts of the valley around, and com- merce in these articles brought Ko- prili most of its income.” Vardar to for any small service they may do for themselves, and so far from de- creasing, the cost of maintenance keeps on advancing. Nor is there any prospect that these soldiers’ homes will ever be closed, althoush the original cause of their estab- lishment has almost entir§ly passed away.” It is wonderful how quiet are the officeholders of an institution whose usefulness is doubtful. A large pub- lic stitution with a full staff of en- ploves of all grades, but without single inmate exists in the State New York. Boards still holds and draw sgalaries, though their work was finished vears ago. Congress w1 face a call for large appropriations for defense, which cannot be denied. While considering these appropria- tions some thought might be given to lopping off useless military posts and old soldiers’ homes. This would not deprive the old veterans of anything. They would be better off when gathered in the best equip- ped of these homes, which it would be advisable to retain Some of these institutions stand on land that s become very valuable, and they should be sold put to profitable a of | or Soldi homes and hospitals of great size and no little magnificence | were built in various parts of this country after the Civil War when | they were needed.

These homes, | when once established, would become a permanent and charge upon the community, and is not at all likely that any trade or industry could be successfully ried on in connection therewith. the various soldiers homes lished in the United States at the close of the Civil War many men have en- | tered in early life, and are still be- ing maintained in these institutions.

Of them all none is sacred as an old soldiers’ home. Canada is at least warned in advance.
