Rosemount, Esopus, N. Y, Sept. 20.
The Democratic presidential nomi-

attendance and the reception of per-
sonal visitors. In the morning he
took his family to his son-in-law's
church at Kingston aboard the launch
Niobe and brought back with him his
close friend, former State Senator
Linson, who dined at Rosemount
County Judge Van Ettan or Ulster

dinner party.
Late this afternoon William F. Shee-
han, who spent Sunday with Mrs.
Sheehan at his country place two
miles below here, drove over and dis
cussed private and personal matters
Rosemount it was said that the nomi-
nee's frequent visits to the metropolis
have put him in such a close touch
with the situation and with Mr.. Shee-
han that the latter will not need to
come here politically bent in the fu-
ture unless the candidates plans are
changed.
The next metropolitan journey will
be made this week, possibly so early
as Tuesday If certain prospective con

declined to make any statement in
connection with the issuance of his
letter Of acceptance. He would not
even say whether 1t embodies all the

this time. From another source, how.
ever, it was learned that the nominee
is quite content to let the document
speak for itself.

THE KNEE CAP CASE
Attracting Large
Crowds Daily

The damage suit of Emma Chamber

Exline were the principal witnesses
that attempted to show the jury that
in the treatment of the broken knee
cap the two physicians allowed the
knee to get into condition that the
patella had to be removed, thus rem
dering the woman a cripple for life.
DR.. Walker was the first expert call

a broken knee cap should be treated,
and when shown the two pieces OF
bone that were taken from Mrs Cham
berlain's knee, hes tated that there had
been no necessity for the removal Of
the bone, and that it was bad prac-
itce upon the part Of Dr. Exline to do
SO. II was DR.. Exline that was called
after the two defendants had been
treating the injury for some time. Drs.
Marchand and Schilling followed DR..
Walker and their evidence was prac-
tically the same as the first witness
for the defense They found that the
two pieces of bone were not diseased

treatment, they claimed, would have
been to remove the diseased portion
without destroying the periostenm, and

PEOPLE PANIC STRICKEN
Flee For Safety, Leaving
Property Behind

Naples, Sept. 26.-The fear is gain
ing ground that a volcanic catastro'
phe is impending. Panic prevails
throughout the district surrounding
Mount Vesuvius and every train brings
new fugitives who have left their all
behind in their blind haste to quit
the sphere of the volcanoes power.
Within the past few hours the erup-
tions have assumed such proportions
that the return Of the volcano to full
activity is believed by many to be
only matter of time. A black pail
hangs over the entire district, brok-
en- now and then by binding flashes Of
fame. The rain of ashes continues
uninterruptedly and liquid lava is dow
ing down the mountain sides III
streams of glistening red and white
Already the east side of the crater has
fallen and Judging from the belchlng
smoke arising from various portions
lower down on the eastern decliyity
new openings have been burst by the
fire raging inside. The old crater
seems to be doomed.
Already the damage done is con-
siderable. The little depot at the foot
of the volcano was struck by a wave
of lava late last night and crumpled
away like burning paper. The quar-
ters of the guides, several large wood
en- structures which stood near the
depot, were also consumed and thin
LAYER of lava now covers consider
able portion Of the track.
At Nola, Sarno and Nocero the peo-
= pie are in a state of frantic despair.
z The authorities and the priests are all
% advising them to consider the dis
p tance separating them from the noun
b tain, but they are deaf to argument
g and hundreds have already left, seek
? ing refuge in Naples. The tales they
p tell here of the terrific heat which
70 drove them away would lead one to
believe that the blight has already
fallen upon their cities. AS matter
of fact, however, careful observations
have so far failed to show that they
: are in the path Of destruction.
> The gravest fears are entertained,
r though, for the excavated portion of
Pompeii and it is assumed that parts
r of the cid city will again be buried
n under ashes and lava as they were
two thousand years ago.
Seismic disturbances occur inter
mittently and therein seems to lie
the grayest danger to the mountain
, villages. Towards night yesterday the
force of earthquakes increased and
y several ramshackle buildings in the
vicinity of Naples collapsed. Similar
p. occurrences are being reported from
the sections nearer the mountain.
From Sarno the spectacle presented
. by the volcano is beautiful in it's ter
ror Vast clouds of smoke, studded
with incandescent pieces of rock and
pierced by tongues of many-colored

Precious stones,ln This Country

ut is a little strange" said Irving
L. Russell, that the United States,
so far ahead in national resources Of
every other part of the globe in all
essential things, should be so deficient
as a producer OF precious stones. l
am Of the opinion that there will be
a big discovery some day of the most
valued gems, probably in some out
of-the-way corner Of the land.
Il do not mean to intimate that we
are exactly destitute of fine stones,
but that those found are mostly of in.
ferior quality as compared with the
output Of the old mines. In North Car
DINA good many emeralds and ru-
bies and sapphires are to be had, but
they are not of sufficient value to
warrant cutting. Some very fine pearls
have been taken out of the shells
picked up in the streams of Arkansas,
and at one time the search for them
down there amounted to a craze.
Pearls, by the way, have gone up in
price from 200 to 800 per cent in re.
cent years.
