life, customs and mannerisms of the
Italian have been pictured by him in
stories which have made him famous.
In his cabled description to the New
York Times Crawford stated that the
recent eruption of Vesuvius had been
grumbling for many weeks before the
outbreak which did the incalculable
damage.

THB VESUVIAN TERROR.
Vivid Description of Great Erup-
fiOn Which Rivals Pom
peii's Destruction.
The Famous Italian Novelist, Marlon
Crawford, Tells of the Terrors of
the Big VoIcanO-History of For
mer Eruptions.

The whole world looked on, awe
struck, at the recent fierce outbreak of
stupendous and devastating force in
the Bay of Naples. The eruption of
Mount Vesuvius is believed to be the
most destructive since the days of Pom
peii, A. D., 79.
The whole story of the eruption of
1906 is sorrowful tale of stricken vic
Tins, devastated vineyards, ruined
homes and terror-stricken, flying peo-
pie, and it is hard to realize that the
same scenes have been enacted there SO
many times before.
Pliny, the noted ancient historian,
described the eruption of Vesuvius in
the year '79, in a series of letters to
Tacitus. This letter described a dark
cloud rising in a single pillar from the
crater of the mountain and from this
a column spread, and upon it rested
great roof, built by invisible carpen-
ters. Resting ever on its single pillar,
like a great mushroom, this roof shut
out the sky from all those wide acres
extending sixteen miles away. The
light ashes of the fire from Vesuvius
descended like snow upon Pompeii,
burying it to great depths. Hercu-
laneum was drowned in a sea of vol
canic mud.
Those who have read the letters of
Pliny find similarity in the description
written by the noted novelist, Marion
Crawford. There is probably no other
American living who is so we'll &C
quainted with conditions as they exist
in Italy. He has taken up his per-

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 it
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 its 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.

direction toward the fated town. Ii
was not till it reached the first house,
sending up great showers OF sparks,
that the people finally fed for their
lives.

infants whose mothers carried them at
the breast or in their aprons Dogs,
too. and cats were 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 euccor.
Originally Yesuvius was in the form
of a single cone. Later eruptions 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. i
ID this inner cone that had its top
blown off. Before the recent eruption
