4 TERRIBLL DISASTER The island
of Scio, in the Mediterranean Sea has
been visited by terrible earthquakes.
towns have been destroyed and ihous
ands of people killed.

dent writes under date OF the 7lh INST,
rs follows: have jnst arrived here
from ConsiautinopIe and find picture
of desulation such rs is rarely witnessed.
The town looks as il had been terribly
bombarded. Hundreds Of houses have
been transformed into a shapelcss mass
of ruins. under which lie buried an un-
known number OF victims. a majority
of the remaining houses are also crack
rnd rooticSS and may fall at any mo-
mcnt. Nearly every building in the
town has suffered more or less. The ~
habtants wander about anxious 70
search for missing friends or lost prop
erly, but are afraid TO risk their lives in
the peiilous work Of clearing away the
rubbish. Many who are willing TO ex
pose themselves TO the danger are pre-
vented by friends or by the police.
Fear, griet and despair are depicted on
nearly every face. All have sad CT
tragic tales to tel.
The first shock was iclt on Sunday
afternoon at about halfrast one O'Clock.
Immediately houses began TO fall
Wild shrieks were heard on every side.
Then followed an awful sileEce OF some
minutes. The terrified Survivors gradu-
ally yenIured into the narrow lanes and
reached the open spaces. Shortly after
wards another terrible shock completed
the devastation. Then it remained
quiet unln sunset when it again began
to shake the island throughout as Sc
yerely as before. All night the shocks
succeeded each other at short intsrvals,
and each one was preceded by dull
sounds like subicrancan explosions.
Since that frequent shocks have been
felt
1t is said that throughout the district
not less than thirty thousand people are
without shelter. In Castro the work
OF extracting bodies and attending the
wounded is progressing satisfactorily,
but the sitting odor IN the vicinity Of
many ruins proves that the former ope-
ration is far from complete. On The
oh hand, some wonderful escapes
have occurred. One woman was Lur
led under the ruins for fly-two hours,
and was at last rescued, having given
birth in the meantime TO a child. The
child is dead, but the mother is doing
