Feeble Attempts of Man Useless

when the stream of fire threatened
Boscotrecase soldiers dug a wide ditch
across its patch in the hope Of divert
ing it's course, but the molten stream
advanced like colossal serpent of fire,
turning its head to the right and left
as a snake does, but keeping it's general
direction toward the fated town. 1t
was not till it reached the first house.
sending up great showers OF sparks,
that the people finally fed for their
lives.
81 saw men. women and children, and
infants whose mothers carried them at
the breast or in their aprons. Dogs,
too, and cats we're on the carts, and
sometimes even chickens, tied togeth-
er by the legs, and piles of mattresses
and pillows, all white with dust under
the lurid glare. We ourselves could
hardly breathe"
This dispatch corresponds exactly in
detail to Pliny's letters. The same
flaming mountain and shaking earth,
the same sitting smoke and ashes, the
same terrifying darkness and the same
helpless. distracted crowd stretching
vain hands to their gods for succor.
Originally Vesuvius was in the form
of a single cone. Later erupt1ons have
broken down the southern side of the
original crater, leaving the northern
semi-circle, which is called Monte
Somma. A smaller central cone had
grown up within the ancient ruin. 1t
is this inner cone that had its top
blown off. Before the recent eruption
the height of the mountain was about
1900 feet.

Smoke Two-Miles High.

AN enormous volume of black smoke
rises to a height of two miles above
the crater" he wrote. "Incandescent
masses of stone are thrown up 5000
feet A continuous southeasterly wind
carries the ashes over Naples, which
is so completely enveloped in darkness
that for three days our communications
by sea have been cut off.
"Fissures have opened far below the
cone, emitting many streams of lava,
one of which has completely destroyed
the town of Boscotrecase, which had
10000 inhabitants Another has reached
the outskirts of Tore del Greco. Others
have destroyed thousands of acres of
fertile cultivated land, with farmhouses
and stock.
''The great cone of Vesuvius col
lapsed with awful laundering and
flames, and the cable railway, the OBJ
servatory and the large hotel near 1t
were all totally destroyed. The lava
carried vast masses of burnt stone and
sulphur on it's surface like dross on
melted lead, and nothing was visible
toward Boscotrecase but endless acres
of dark scoriae, broken here and there
by the greenish curling smoke Of sui
phur.
AT one point we found a great pine
tree, torn up by it's roots and turned
to black charcoal; the air was almost
unbreathable; the heat intense. The
faces of the people who crowded upon
the edge of the arrested stream eX-
pressed terror of exhaustion from re-
cent panic.

ANNISTON WORKING
 FOR 6 O'CLOCK LAW
Measure Is Believed, However, to Be Only Step Toward Ultimate
 Prohibition.

Anniston. November 21.-( -(Special)-A movement has been inaugurated by d number of prominent church ladies, backed by influential citizens, to compel the saloons of Annston to close their doors by o'clock every evening. and an ordinance to this effect will likely be in
 troduced eat an early meeting of the city council, while it is said Mayor Kilby, several councilmen and at least one sa- loonkeeper of the city have declared themselves in favor of the movement.
 It is believed this is only a step to- ward q dispensary or prohibition meas ures that have been pending in the minds of many for several years. If the $ o'clock law and high license are practi- cally the only measures coming within the jurisdiction Of the city council as the law now stands, and if a local op- ton bill passes the house at the ap- preaching session, it is probable that the fight for dispensary or prohibition vii, be waged unless the o'clock alter native proves satisfactory. The G o'clock law has been tried at Jacksonville and at other places, and it is said to have given general satisfaction. It's friends claim that it reduces crime and disorder to Q minimum, and that it protects the laboring classes. making it mpracticable for them to get to the saloon after work ing hours. Also it is said to abolish in a large measure, the treating evil, which 1t is said, takes place largely after dark.

T. j. RYAN IS DEAD
 NEAR UNIVERSITY
Rumors of a Big Fire at Cottondale Cause Alarm In Tuscaloosa,
 But Are Unfounded.

Tuscaloosa. November 27.-(Special)- The death of MT. r. J. Ryan occurred at his residence here near the university yesterday afternoon, after an Illness of some time. MT. Ryan was q well known and highly respected citizen of the coun- ty. He was a brother of AIr. J. H. Ryan of Taylorvile. and was about co years Of age. He leaves also a wife and seI- eral sons and daughters to mourn his loss. His funeral will occur at the Hope well church. five miles from town, at o'clock tomorrow
 A rumor was circulated in town yes terday that there had been fire of con siderable damage at Cottondale the small town eight miles above here. The truth of the matter, however, has proved to be that lot of cotton in the waste house of the Tuscaloosa mills there was dis covered to be on fire Sunday night. but that prompt action on the part of the watchmen and others in the use of the company's water system, put the fire out and rescued several bales of cotton Quite ar amount of uneasiness was prevalent at first, for the Tuscaloosa mills, which is the property of the Rosenau brothers of this place, is one of the most im- portant industries of the county and it's loss or destruction would be great loss to the county.
 MT. M T. Ormond has sold to A. Lind gren the lot next to the Lindgren black smith shop, part of the old opera house block. This lot has been leased to W. E. Robertson for q term of five years, and iC erect a shop on it at once. Mir Lndgren has just recently sold the blacksmith shop mentioned above to Mrs Henry Aston for $125O. These lots are 25 feet front.
 An interesting feature of the last meet Ing of the Up to Date club was the re- port of the delegates to the state fedora ton, who made interesting talks about their trip there An especially gratifying announcement to Tuscaloosa people was that $75 scholarship has been estab- lished at the university. which scholar ship will be open to young women de- sirng to pursue the university course.
 Tuscaloosa is beginning to solve some of it's questions as to the negro labor proposition, after the suggestions that have been occurring lately in many of the newspapers MT. k. J. Holston of the Queen City hotel, on having some trouble With nlS negro servants, has efn- ployed all white servants. sending to Cullnan for good many of these Mar tinil Bolona, also. who keeps one of the best restaurants of the city. had trouble with his negro employees. and now has white boys entirely as the walters in Eis dining room. Up to this time no white servants have been known here.
