A dispatch from Naples of the

q clossal brazier, and the town of
Boscatrecase on its southern de-
clvity, has been transformed into
gray island of ruin by the ashes
from the crater of the volcano.

ling in the distance serpents with
glittering yellow and black scales,
are coursing in all directions, amid

The molten streams do not
spare the homes of peasants, and
when these have been razed they
they dash into the wells, as though
seeking to slake their thirst, and,
after filling them, continue their
course down the mountainside.
Everywhere in the vicinity Of

in their grief, and old men crying

Every newspaper treasures up
in its memory the names of its
friends and likewise those of its
enemies. 1t seldom overlooks an
opportunity to assist the former,
but it never goes out of ITS way to
help the latter. Human nature is
pretty much the same elsewhere,
People who show the newspaper
kindness never makes better in
vestment or one that pays hun.
dred fold sooner or later. AS it
has been truly said, there comes a
time in the life of every man when
he needs his home paper and
needs it badly.
