Belching Tongues OF Flame, Columns
of Smoke and Showers of Cinders.

NAPLES, Nov 1.-THE eruption of Mount
Vesuvius, which began on Monday last, is
increasing in activity The spectacle is
grand. Columns of smoke and tongues of
flame are belching from the central crater,
while showers of cinders are falling.
The crater of Mount Vesuvius is about
four thousand feet above the level of the
sea. 1t has probably created more havoc
than all the other volcanoes in the world
combined. Many thousands of lives have
been lost in the burning lava that, for CEN
turies has internationally poured out of the
fiery throat of Vesuvius. The first great
eruption of which history is aware was that
of the year A. d. 49, when the cities of
Hercuaneum and Pompeii were destroyed
with all of their inhabitants. Prior to that
tremendous perturbance the crater of the
voicano was level plain, covered with YER
dUre and a capital pasture for sheep and
cattle The tanks of the mountain were
covered with cultivated fields. AT it's foot
were the twin cities that were enguifed in
the ashes and scoria that had been impris-
Oned in the mountains NAV for centuries
Prior to 1896 there was no eruption of lava,
although the volcano was active in the
years 203, 49, 512 6S5 and S93. In Az the ejac-
ulatory force carried the ashes as far as
ConStantnople. That of 5l2 carried them to
Tripon There were eruptions in lO49, llSS
and 1906. In the last named year the cities
of lsernia and Brindisi were obiterated and
many thousands of lives were lost. In 1881
Nesuvus broke forth once more after a
rather long rest and continued active for
about a year. During the last century the
eruptions increased in frequency. That Of
1873, described by Sir William Hamilton,
was a most magnificent phenomenon. The
eruption of 1884 destroyed the town of Tore
del Greco. About twenty-five eruptiOnS have
occurred during the present century, but no
great loss of life resulted.

GREEK NAVAL SCANDAL.
Newspapers Demand Prince Georges
Trial by Court Mn rtiaI.

BRINDISI, Italy, Nov. u.-Letters re-
ceived here to-day from Athens say the
torpedo scandal continues to be the sensa-
ton of the Greek capital The basis of this
scandal was the discovery of the fact that
all the cartridges fitted to the torpedoes
during the war with Turkey were not pro-
vided with percussion caps and Illuminating
mercury, and that therefore, they would
have been useless in case they were needed
The committee OF investigation appointed
to inquire into the matter decided that two
officers, Captains Rastopoulo and Anstas
must be tried by court-martial on the
charge of culpable negligence. Captain
Rastopoulo. who is now being tried, has
asked that Prince George of Greece, who
commanded the torpedo fiotilla during the
war and who was previous to the war a
great favorite with the masses, be called
as witness. The court has refused to do
this and the Greek newspapers are publish
ing vigorous articles the subject, the
anti dynastic Hestia going $50 far as to de-
mand that Prince George be tried by court
martial. The prince is known to be deeply
affected by the scandal and by the attacks
made on him and the royal family general
ly in consequence of this fresh example of
the unpreparedness of Greece for an out
break of hostilities.

Willard, president of the w. c. T. u. an
nounces that she will contribute $1,000 of
her own money to start the fund Of $3OO. 900
which the temperance women need to hold
control of the Temple property. In an in
terview Miss Willard said this sum was
raised by women throughout the country
and came to her as a memorial testimony
on the occasion of her tftteth birthday.
Continuing, she said: This sum of $1,000
has been in the bank ever since it came
into my possession, and l have concluded
that / cannot better show my love to the
women who gave 1t than to put IL into the
fund for the enterprise which has been the
pride of US all. i have a heaVen-bOrn pre-
sentiment that the Temple is to be saved to
our cause"
Miss Frances Willard, in an Interview to-
day, said that the National w. c. T.. U.
convention in Buffalo did not indores any
political party. This was a new departure,
the convention having, for thirteen years,
declared that its prayers and sympathy
were for the Prohibition party The nom
action was a surprise to her. as she sup
posed, matter of course, the conVen-
ton would pass the usual resolution.
