: The Smart Set

Vt is announced that the wedding
of Mrs. Rebecca McMullin Belvin
and Francis J. Heney, which was
to have been celebrated next
month, will not take place until the
end of the year. Mrs. Belvin is in
Arizona, spending the summer as the
guest of her sister, Mrs. E. B. Perrin,
and will not return for some weeks
yet. Mr.. Heney is in town for a few
DAYS on a brief business trip, but is
returning almost Immediately to Port
land. He will complete the land
fraud cases in which he is engaged
there and will be compelled to make
a trip to Washington as well; so it
will be the end of November at least
before he will be able to return here
for his wedding.
Mrs. Eleanor Martin has been in
town quite continuously of late, bust
ness affairs and the repairs on her
house demanding her attention, but a
little later she expects to go to Del
Monte for a stay, and probably after
that will go to Los Angeles for a
visit TO some of her many friends
there Mrs Martin went to the Hotel
Rafael for few days stay last week.
She was accompanied by Miss Mar
guerite lie Breton, who is here from
Paris and who will later be Mrs Mar
tins guest for a time. Mrs. Martin
will also have as her guests Mr. and
Mrs. Peter Martin, who are occupying
the Poniatowsloi house at Burlingame,
but who will come to town very
shortly to remain. Mrs. Martin has
words of greatest praise for her stun
ming daughter-in-law, who refused the
invitations of her family and friends
TO go East Immediately after the fire
and has stayed here with her husband,
whose affairs made his presence on
this coast imperatively necessary.

There are two characters in "The
Black Flag" running at the Central,
that more than repay the moderate
price of admittance The hero, played
by Mr. Humphreys, is such perfect
hero that one almost wonders why
he does not sprout a nimbus, and the
villain, portrayed by Mr. Brewer, is
so wicked that the audience would
hardly be surprised to see horns pro-
trude from his head. To be sure, the
villain is an uncomfortable part
for a virtuous actor to play,
but what satisfaction for a
conscientious actor to know that the
Kisses and boots he provokes are
really tributes to the excellence of
his work.

TDITOR CALL: The press OF
Ii the country has recently pub
Il lished some telegraphic reports
from correspondents on the!
frontier to the effect that some labor
fraternities in Mexico were preparing
an anti-foreign, specially an anti
American movement.
Official inquiry revealed at once the
absurdity of said reports and
prompted his Excellency David E.
Thompson, the honored american
ambassador at the Mexican capital,
to apprise his Government of their
falsity and recommend their denial.
The Government of Mexico in
turn declared such reports not only
false, but malicious as we'll, and
liable to do some harm to the inter-
ests of both Americans and Mexicans
It's Foreign Office is my authority
for this statement.
The progressive tendencies of the
people and the sound policy of the
Government, generally acknowledged
to be one of the wisest of modern
times, makes a disorder of the nature
reported impossible in Mexico, where
foreign industry and capital enjoy
today the highest appreciation of the
people and the effective protection of
its strong Government.
Should this letter appeal to your
enlightened sense of public duty
would be grateful for its publication

NEW HAVEN MORNING coURER MONDAY DECEMBER IT 1eoe

Except at the time of the most vio- lent outbursts, the smoke rose quietly
 from three Assures in three unbroken
 columns, accompanied by puffs of ' smoke much resembling balls of cot ; ton wool. Owing to their great density, these rapidly fall to the ground, and 1 as the density and weight increase
 give rise to the avalanches of hot ashes which have been frequently
 reported, and of which the occurrence
 is now definitely established. These are really nothing but the so-caIled glow { ing clouds" of very restricted mo-
 billty, and the phenomenon may oc-
 cur whenever the necessary condi-
 tions are present and may occasional ly lead to destructive results. These emissions may account in part for
 the high temperature retained by the ashes, which seems due also to ennis
 sions of steam at certain spots. The emission of nitrogen or other
 poisonous gas seems to have been quite an exceptional occurrence All
 though the accounts of destruction
 were in many eases exaggerated, Dr. Sabatini considers that the damage may be reckoned at certainly more than G1,OOO, O.-Geographical Jour nal

down a gully of the mountalnside. At
 D. m. the small lateral cone fell in,
 and dense column of smoke rose
 above the crater, black ashes falling
 at Naples in the evening. An April 5 a second Assure opened at a lower level, and a lava stream flowed two and one-half miles to within some 500 yards of Bosco Trecase. On April A still more copious stream poured forth and by midday of April ' had ap- preached to about 800 yards from Torre Annunzalata, By the evening the main crater began to hurl out | huge white hot blocks, with the ae- compliment of loud detonations and [ flashes of light, while at the same time a rain of lapilli and ashes began the destruction of Ottajano and San Giuseppe. Earthquake shocks were felt at Naples and elsewhere On April the ashes, which continued to fall in great quantities, were reddish gray, instead of black, as at first and were sometimes so dense as to form dark pail, rendering artificial light necessary in the daytime. The cloud extended to a distance of 100 miles while a fall of ashes took place at Venice, Paris, etc.
 ] A rough calculation places the to- tai amount of ashes and lapilli which fell at s5,00O,O00 cubic metres. tbo place most damaged being ottaiano The lava streams occupied a sector of 30 degrees, and evidently had their source at various points of the crater The three principal ones reached a height of ten to twelve feet and in places double this amount. This lava was very rapidly disintegrated, pro- bably because it was formed of chaotic mixture of irregular blocks and fragments.
 As regards the more general ra- suits, Dr. Sabatini points out that while lesser outbreaks increase ths height of the volcano, a eatastronbo like that of April last tends to lower it. Whatever may have been the caso in 79 A. D., we know that this wac the result in 1881 and 1794, when inc cone appeared after the eruptions as if truncated. Similarly, the pointed profile of March last exists no lonper and the present height seems beiov, that of the crater of 1872, though the reduction does not probably excaa5 82O feet. Besides this, the whole form and composition of the surface of tha mountain have been changed, the old Assures having disappeared. whole sections of the crater wall fallen in and the whole surface having bosn covered with a thick layer of ashes These still retained high temnara ture on April 14, and, owing to their loose nature, were constantly slipning down hill or being raised into inc alP by the wind.
