HOW al cITY WIS sURIED.
Herculaneum Seems to Have Been
Deluged with water Lava
Different from Pompeii.

be dug up and exposed TO daylight
on a grand scale, is one of those
ancient cities w6iaIfhavenot only
been buried but actually forgot
ten for ages. The town, supposed
TO be of Etruscan origin, lies on
the Campanian plain at the foot
Of its destroyer, Nesuyius, almost
midway between Naples and Pom
peii. Present-day knowledge of
the city dates from 1903, when the
sinking of a well brought to light
marble facings and fragments of
statues. The well seems TO have
struck the ancient level in the
stage structure of the theater, and
20 years later the authorities or
dered excavations to be made on
the spot where the statues had
been found. This work. though
very irregular and ignorantly ear
ried through, was continued for
more than 40 years ito 1880, but
at this point the Investigations
were stopped in favor of more Wig
OrOus researches at Pompeii The
galleries tunDeled through were
largely filled in again and more at
tcntiOn would seem to have been
devoted to the actual finds than
TO the city itself
a little systematic work was
done under the French rule. and
again in the years between 1927
and 1887, when another relapse Oc-
CURED until Victor Emmanuel en-
abled the work TO be taken up
again by bestOwing money for the
purpose in 1866. The meager-
ness of the results, however. com
bined with the fact that new sink
ings happened to fall ola the old
tunnels, led to the idea that the
whole of the site had already been
completely tunneled with CALLER
les in the preceding century. Only
a small portion of the city now ex
posed to daylight is the work of
the nineteenth century. 1t is the
earlier work which the proposed
new scheme will rersume. To-day
only the theater is visible, the
orchestra of which lies 50 feet be-
low the surface of the soil. The
ruins, such as exist, have in con
sequence to be visited by torch
light.
What caused the catastrophe OF
the year 10 A. d.? Biologists
have come to the help of the arch
biologists, and it is now held that
the destruction of Herculaneum
was somewhat different from thar
Of POmpeii, although POmpeii was
also covered and buried and the
general effects were the same M
both instances. In the ease of
POmpeii the city was overwhelmed
by the shower of small stones
from the volcano and the snbSr-
quent rain of ashes, but Hercula
neum seems to have been deluged
with water lava" and far fewer
people were able to make their es-
cape from the city than from
POmpeii.
1t is the theory that the steam
from the crater turned into rain,
and, mixing with the volcanic
dust, formed a huge volume of
muddy torrent. This gathered
other soil as it poured over the
land, raised the level of the cOun-
try more than 50 feet and finally
left mass of cOmpacted tufa.
This torrent ran ON to the sea,
making its own channel, and form
ing kind of lagoon around the
previously safe harbOr which en-
tirely prevented any ship from APP
preaching the place thereafter.

Animal Rss.rr, in Attic,

Threatened disappearance Of
the wild fauna of South Africa
has led the Natal government to
form a reserve Of 10000 acres in
extent on the slopes of the Drak-
ensberg. In the deep "kloOfs" Of
these secluded mountains patches
of berg cypress and other natural
forest afford good cover for the
Gland, of which only some 100
specimens now remain in Natal.
The reserve also contains herds
Of blue buck and klipspringer. In
this game reserve are also found
many valuable specimens of early
Bushman paintings and drawings,
many of which are disappearing
owing to the rapid disintegratiOn
OF the rock surfaces.
