 MT. stith was for number of years connected with the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron Company as superintendent of the coal mines at Brookside, in the western part of Jefferson county. Sew era1 months ago he quit this company in order to go into business for him. self. It was his custom to come to the city every Friday and remain un- til Monday with his family.

"and words fail me in attempting a description. "Whcn was near the famous mountain just a few weeks ago I saw big flames of fire coming from the crater; appeared to me like the fire which comes out of the blast furnaces around Birmingham when the gas Is let out I ascertain ed that there is more or less constant dread on the part of the people around Mount Vesuvius as to an eruption. Just think of city being literally GOV. cred with ashes. It Is too horrible to even think of.
