PASSENGERS ON SCUTARI LAKE 



Over this hill he had dra.c^ged his cannon 

 with men and ropes. Upon that height 

 was Suleiman Pasha with 30,000 troops. 

 At this spot was a Montenegrin brigade. 

 From this the assault was ordered. 

 "And what is there now, sir?" I asked. 

 The King drew himself up and answered 

 solemnly, "Seven million Montenegrin 

 cartridges !" And it is worth noting that 

 the only manufacturing establishment of 

 consequence is the cartridge factory. 



"an ATTILA WITH MACHINE GUNS" 



South of Spuzh lies Podgoritza. once 

 Turkish, and still retaining the minarets 



and the unkempt Moslem cemetery to 

 point to the order that has passed. It 

 is the most considerable town of the 

 kingdom, yet it has no more than 6.000 

 inhabitants. 



The Albanian frontier lies but a short 

 distance to the east, and during the Al- 

 banian revolution of 191 1. as we sat in 

 the square before the dismal hotel sipping 

 our evening coffee beneath the mulberry 

 trees, we could watch the twinkling camp- 

 fires of Torgut's column moving ui)on 

 the rebellious Malissori — "like an Attila 

 with machine guns," as Miss Durham 

 used to say.
