Why Did They Abandon Pompeii9
At a period when newspaper discus
sions were rather vapid, despite the &C.
credited appearance of the sea serpent
and the arrival of the large potato,
Max Nordau in an Austrian journal
propounded problem that should lead
to useful inquiry:
Why was it that the inhabitants of
Pompei did not return to their homes
after the destruction of the city?
OF the 10000 nhabitants a few hun
dreds at most seem to have lost their
lives. The eruption Of Vesuvius lasted
only a few days. The deposit of lava
and ashes was not very thick The
houses might have been easily repaired.
Many of them stand to this day. They
were beautiful houses. many of them,
richly appointed and containing valu-
abes Of great price Had the Pom
pelians no love of home, or were they
too superstitious, or did their terror at
the eruption make them believe the
disaster might come again?

BARRE, VI, FEBRUARY Is, 1902

George w. Gray, secretary of the
forward Movement has proposed
the most novel scheme for gathering
the social conditions Of Chicago q nd
vet the most practical devised. He
proposes to establish Christian pool
rooms, vaudeville houses and billiard
rooms in the Stun districts where
men and women can have good whole
some amusement, in place Of that now
offered them. 1t has long been rec
opnized by thinking people the world
over that there is not the slightest
harm in game of pool or billiards
under proper influences and amid good
surroundings. There is still some
doubt about vaudeville houses but
under proper super Vision they can
probably be made not only harmless
but a power for much good. There is
much good in Mr.. Gray's plans and it
is to DO hoped that he will be enabled
to carry them out. Certainly, If in
the arts certain negative properties
can be neutralized so that the sub
stances containing them can be made
valuable, bis plan ought to be feast.

MANY Renowned Men Have Preceded
Prince Henry mt Harvard.
The coming visit of Prince Henry of
Germany to Harvard university adds
one more to long list of celebrated
visitors. Just before the Revolutionary
war the last but one of the royal gov
errors of Massachusetts, Hutchinson,
came to Cambridge on visit which
was doubtless intended to revive the
more than doubtful loyalty of the stu
dents and professors. He was accom-
panied by retinue and was welcomed
in speech by Samuel Adams, 1.-THE
Father of the American Revolution
who had graduated at Harvard in 1740.
Even without the presence of Adams
the students had already made their
choice in the impending Revolution
and. although Governor Hutchinson
represented the kings majesty"
George Ill was not even mentioned in
the exercises.

Washington rode up what was then
called "rory row. in Cambridge and
was received with great enthusiasm by
the whole college. President Quincy.

from the rural districts Of Massachu

bred, but like the simple country gen
tleman that he admittedly was. The
students had given up their own rooms
to the soldiers of the American army
and the next day, July 3, III, Wash
ington took command of the American
army under the old elm that still
stands in Cambridge. In 1776 the col

Ill. D.
Lafayette was another distinguished
visitor. He was received in August,
1924, and was described at the time as
being straight and noble, looking fully
six feet in stature. Since then there
have been a number of famous foreign
ers who have come to Cambridge to
pay their respects to the oldest Amer
