Royal Couple Assist Rescuers.


The king and queen of Italy went to
Messina in the battleshir Vittorio
Emmanuel, and his majest: grasped
the situation and set to WORK all the
powers he controlled to alleviate the
horrors of the situation. He partici-
pated actively in the work CO actual
rescue.
Immediately on his arrival at Mes
sina the king joined rescue party
and labored as unremittingly Sa the
others. He personally extricated sev-
eral injured persons pinned under Vie
ruins
The que n also took active part dn
the work. She rescued with her o%n
hand a boy of three years, who was
bleeding from many cuts, and herse4<
carried him to the dock where she
handed him over to members of the
hospital corps. She devoted her at
tention principally to the littla chill
dren and labored long amid the Gcenes
of horror.
Those who brought news hers from
Catania of the visit Of the kiLS anG
queen said that the horrors of the
ruined city were added to by the
countless number of bodies lying all
about. Such a force of laborers as
it would be impossible to gather,
equip and sent to Messina would have
been needed to bury the dead. The
task was regarded as beyond human
power of accomplishment within the
period which would make such die
posal of the bodies effective.

HOPELESS Search for Relatives.

The German steamer Serapin
brought stories of heartrending sep
aration of families, and the hopeless
and frantic seeking of relatives one
for the other Shortly after the Sera-
pin locked a gangplank was lowered
and a few persons were allowed on
board. The refugees were found sit
ting in isolated groups.
They gave evidence of great mental
depression, and were utterly exhaust
ed They seemed scarcely conscious
of their surroundings. Most of them
were held in the thrall of their terri
bic experiences.
One old man was carrying a little
girl in his arms. The child was COW
cred with blood.
us that your child?" he was asked.
NO" he replied Il found her on
the pavement in Messina. l picked
her I'D and cared for her. No one
claimed her and l could not abandon
her. l have had her in my arms ever
since"
With this touching explanation the
old man became oblivious to his ques-
toner and everything around him.
The Serapin brought into this port
records of numberless tragedies. Fam
lilies separated, mothers moaning and
crying for their dead children, hus-
bands and wives lost to each other, or
a sole survivor wishing that he had
not been spared.
There was one girl on board the
steamer, her clothing tattered and
torn, who had saved canary bird.
She was music hall singer and had
chung to her pet throughout the terri
BILE scenes of devastation. The bird
was the only happy thing on the YES
sci.

Sesrchers Killed at Reggie.

A refugee from Calabria stated that
an express train on the road from
Reggie to Naples was brought to a
stop by the shock when about Is miles
along the road in it's journey. The
passengers demanded that they be
taken back to Reggie, where they
found a scene of desolation. While
searching for friends fresh shocks oc-
Cured and practically all the passen-
gers were killed.
At Messina, after rapid work of or
ganization, progress was made in the
work of succoring the wounded sur
vivors, but no attempt was at first
made to remove the wreckage. The
troops and sailors were obliged to
shoot down robbers who persisted in
footing. The entire local treasury of
the Messina branch of the Bank of
Italy, some 100000, was saved and
placed on board an Italian warship.
Many of the people Of Messina re-
fused to leave the ruins of their
houses. They chung to the sites of
their homes, crying out that their only
safety was in fidelity to the wrecks
of their houses. Force often was
necessary to get them to the ships in
the harbor. There were large num-
bers in the suburbs of Messina who
would not come back into the city for
fear of a recurrence. of the shocks.

A young woman with a $4,000 prize

her views on beauty culture have be-
come at ones important. L eat four

If there is any mistake about this
regimen the lady has time 20 find it

weighs only 145 pounds as yet.
Ten years of physical culture, so it
is advertised, have produced this mod

mention of dumbbells, hygienic cor

Vassar's record-breaking athletic girls,
an avoidance of strenuous outdoor

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, they cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the ear. There is only way to
deafness and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have rumbng sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when 1t is entirely closed Deaf
is the result and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Qualities of Lead and Steel.

Lead, when reduced to a very low
temperature in liquid air, is said to
act much as steel at ordinary tempera-
lures. 1t will serve as helical spring,
for example. Just as iron is soft and
inelastic at high red color, so lead is
dull and soft at ordinary temperatures,
for it is then already well on its way

There are those who tell us that our
grandmothers took on physical cul-
ture unconsciously, without thinking
of its inches, in the course OF their
housewifely days. For the Indian
clubs they had the broom; in place of
the ''setting-up'' exercise they stopped
to the clothes basket below and reach
ed to the line above; In stead of prac-
ticing high kicking they rode the
LADY to Banbury Cross on an out
stretched foot. Evidently our newly
arrived model does not owe her curves
to domestic employment We are
tempted, however, by her free and
easy account of her course in culture
to suspect that really her proportions
grew upon her and that she merely
imagines she has been in training.

Houses Vanished Instantly.

During the voyage OF the Iherapl0
to Naples a child was born.
Houses Vanished Instantly.
A physician named Condo, a native
of Messina, said he escaped by climb
ing over the fallen roofs. Houses van
ished with the suddenness of a dream
and daylight showed nearly two miles
of ruins. Steamships put out to cross
the straits for help after the first
shock of the earthquake, but half way
over they met vessels from the oppo.
site coast which carried the news that
Reggie, too, had persisted.
The wounded refugees that reached
this city presented sickening sight.
some appeared hardly human; others
among the fugitives had no apparent
injuries, but were in such a deplora-
BILE mental condition that they seemed
the worst of all. The horror of that
tragic minute appeared to be ineradi-
cably fixed upon their faces. On the
relief ships the refugees were heaped
everywhere. Some of them appeared
to be stricken with a kind of idiocy.
looking aimlessly before them; others
completely mad, howled wildly. The
commander of the Therapie gave
thrilling description of the rescues eff
fected by his men when his ship ar
rived at Messina. AS the vessel drew
up before the city it was surrounded
by fiotilla of boats and tugs loaded
to the gunwales with men and women
who piteously cried for food and
drink, for they had nothing for "a
hours. On entering the port a ire
mendous clamor greeted their ears. 1t
was the survivors screaming for help.
From the water front Messina appear
ed to be intact, as the facades of the
fine buildings along that line of
streets still were standing, but behind
was emptiness and ruin. The princi-
pal square presented an awe-inspiring
aspect. Everywhere were enormous
cracks into which the sea poured,
whence clouds of steam and sulphur
Gus vapors arose.

Lime Spread over the City.


So it was arranged to have tens OF
| thousands of tons of lime taken to
Messina in ships and carried over the
city and spread everywhere.
The messengers from Messina could
not find words of sufficiently high
| praise for the conduct of the king and
queen. They said that their majesties
left the battle ship and hurried into
the ruins of the city as if their own
near and dear ones lay amid the
| wreckage.
Owing to the overwhelming char
acter of the disaster, the hastily es"
tablished hospital and relief corps
we're woefully inadequate to the work
So it was that before their majesties
had gone more than a few rods from
the dock they found themselves
among the ruins with the dead all
about them. Even the dying pinned
beneath walls and masonry heard the
wild cries Of welcome mingled with
,, the chorus of wailing as q great MOB
of half-distracted men and women
crowded about the royal couple and
followed them as In0AI SuaIuS -2>Ss&S u
way into the ruins.
The king made himself dear to all
his subjects, especially to those in
the earthquake zone, by his prompt
and personal aid in times of disaster.
This makes plausible story told By
his companions, who said that as th0
royal pair and the crowd surrounding
them made their way through the
ruins a man pinned under a great
block of stone and supposed to be
dead raised his head, repeated the
cries of acclaim and dropped back
dead.
There was a deep coating of mud all
over and their maJesties walked
through it in their work. The queen
was frequently affected to tears by
the sight of the homeless, helpless
women who followed her crying for
pity, half-crazed by their misfortune
If she looked upon them they threw
themselves upon their knees in the
mire and with clasped hands prayed
for her help.

When an incident like the follow ing occurs here at home, it is bound to carry weight with our readers. So many strange occurrences so the rounds of the press; are published as facts, people become skeptical. On one subject Skepticism is rapidly dis Lappearing This is due to the actual experience of our citizens, and their Ipublic utterances regarding them.
