GREAT IN HISTORY
i
\ And Wondrously Beautiful 1$ the
City of Lisbon,
Portuguese Capital Has Had Many
Names Through the Centurlee?
Wai Last 8trong%old of the
Moor In That Country.
|.| The \vi?y of a name, especially a
I well-known ufuiH1, Is interesting to
I: very many people outside the ranks of
| the continued etymologist. The strunge
I way in which. through the centuries
h it name, gradually cfiaiigcs and
until it has really cl>9l\|^d
out of all cusuul recognition, yet uever
quite parts from ltn ordinal. ha? a
fascination all its own. Lisbon Is a
|! Very Urst-class example. No. one, off
|j hand, would think of connecting the
(j name with Wynne*, and yet your *ty
| mologlst dives Into the subject and so
< t 11 uect 8 It without ttppareut difficulty.
Every one, -of course, knows the legend
that Lisbon owes Its origin to Ulysse*.
! It makes no dlffer<,m'e thai the In>'thl
ral qlty founded by the great wan
derer Is declared by Htrabo to have
| been rather In the mountains of
J Turdetanla, In the extreme south of
Spain. Such contentions never make
any dlfferei*ce to a wellestuhllshod
tradition. And so the oldest name by
which the city ever was known, that
Is to say Ollslpo, came to' be writ
ten UlysslpiK). This on Phoenician
Hps, says the authority, appeared
a* Allssubbo,. or the frigidly bay.
Then came the Romans, changing the
name, but scaling their appreciation of
the happy situation of the beautiful
city on the heights above Tugas|by
calling It Kellcltas Julia. After the
Romans carne the Moors with their
Al Aschbuna, still carrying out the
same Idea, and after the Moors, the
Portuguese, w'lth the AUssubbo of the
Phoenician carried a step further,
and appearing as Llssi\bona. From
that to the Llsboa or Lisbon of today
Is but a step.
And what a history there Is In It I
i It carries one safely through the con
! turles, touching lightly on the story of
I Phoenician, Roman and Moor as
each, In turn, held sway along the
shores of Friendly bay. Lisbon, In
deed, was the last stronghold of the
Moor In Portugal, and the story of
how King Alfonso I laid siege to It
through many months, in 1147. and,
! at last, with the aid of English and
?Flemish cruisers on the way to Syria
captured It, Is one of the great ro
mances of history. Other landmarks
and epochs In the history of ;Llsbon
are the burning of the city by the
Castlllan army of Henry II, In 1313;
Its period of splendor* and greatness
In the sixteenth century, when the
Portuguese empire was spreading It
self into India and Africa; Its long
L years of . humtllnrtlon from \lf>80 to
1040, wheft Lisbon was a provincial
town under Spanish rule; Its release^
from the Spanish bondage* the great
I earthquake of 1T.">.?; and the grand
j rebuilding of the city under the fa
I mous Caraxalho.. ?
Caravalho had a gracious task:
Lisbon has always been famons for
the beauty of Its situation, and few
tfho write about Portugal today fall
to attempt, once again, to convey the
beauties of Its blue waters, Its white,
red-roofed houses, the wonderful ver
dure of Its gardens, and over all the
"peerless blue of a southern sky."
**The eyes rest," snys one writer,
??upon a succession of amphitheaters
built up with tier upon tier of houses,
great and small, which the sorcery of
Lusltanlan sunlight transfigures Into
the semblance of a city of palaces and
many mansions built up of marbles
of delicate and varied hues." The
westernmost of European capitals
spreads Itself In leisurely fashion over
its 11 hills, extending for more than
five miles along the shores of the fa
mous Rada de Lisbon, and for more
than three miles Inland. Beyond the
narrow channel leading out of the
Rada through which flow the wa
, ten of the Tagufl lies the open sea,
and some 800 mUes away over the
? horizon to the west are the Azores.?

The Storlea They Tell.
They fay on Broadway that one of
the bestknoxyn workmen took a con
tract to writ? a book for a new comic
opera and received an advance fee of
$1,000. When the time came to deliver
the work he had not written a line.
He did not want to admit thin and he
did not want to give hack the $1,000.
So he went to a bookstore, bought the
book of an old opera, had It typewrit
ten and read It to his patron.
"That," said his patron, "Is the
! worst I ever heard, Harry. I can't take
| that mess of Junk. It wouldn't lost
| two days on Broadway."
I "Let me try again," he begged.
So he turned In the book of a big
success when the amended date came
around. The first book was that of
"Patience," by Gilbert and Sullivan.
