Studied with maps and accounts OF
the more recent Of the great earth
quake disasters On Italy, it is seen
that in the latest catastrophe the dis
furbance reached the surface on the
northern border, close to Swiss terri
tory. BOmodossolo is among the
Alps, and the mountain range seems
to have been the route of the earth
quake. It passed to the southwark,
following the Apennines. There Is a
twenty minutes difference between
the time ~of the shocks reported in
upper and lower Italy.
In Calabria, which has been laid
waste again and again by such dis
turbances, this earthquake first
touched the surface with It's full
effect. Lofty signal posts of disaster
marked its way, for It struck with
full force at the extinct volcano of
San Giovanni. spread its devastation
across the Strait Of Messina to Sicily
and rolled up another score of death
and ruin all about the slopes Of
Mount Etna, reducing to ruins the
ancient and famous city of Messina
and tumbling the buildings of Catania,
fifty-nine miles farther south, only
to again oyerwhelm the busy port
soon afterward with great tidal
wave.
The spread Of the earthquake in
Sicily and Southern Italy, according
to the cable dispatches, was through
very much the same area as that of
the earthquake of 1873, which was
the most destructive in the history

quake caused enormous damage on
both sides Of the Strait of Messina.
which separates the toe of the So
called @boot" OF Italy from Sicily.
The historic disaster completely
wrecked the populous seaport of Mes
sina in Sicily near the northern end
of the strait and destroyed many
smaller cities and towns in Southern
Italy and Sicily.
The loss of life in this disaster of
1888 was estimated at $4,000, Mes

but little above the level of the sea,
suffering terribly--then, as now, from

south of Messina has also been often
overwhelmed by eruptions from
Mount Etna. The southeastern and
eastern portion of the island has been
damaged time and again by eruptions
of Etna and very little by earth

HISTORICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE
REGION IN ITALY DEVASTATED By
EARTHQUAKES AND TIDAL WAVES
MESSING the Ruined ci. 27OO Years old and Has Had
Many Masters and Catastrophes.

1920 Next to Palermo, it is the
chief commercial town of Sicily and
its harbor, which is formed by a
peninsula, Is the busiest in Italy from
the standpoint of steamboat traffic.
The principal object of interest to
tourists. apart from the scenic attrac-
tions OF the place, Is the cathedral,
which was begun in 1923, at the time
OF Norman occupation of the island,
and parts of which are still standing
as originally constructed with the ex-
ception of the evidences Of damage
wrought by the frequent earthquakes.
The town Is one of great antiquity,
and derived its first known name.
Zanole Ga sickle), from the shape of
the harbor, 1t was founded by Gu
maen pirates and Chalcidians in 732
B. G., and was governed by the laws
of Charondas.
In 396 B. C. the town was de-
stroyed by the Carthaginians. but was
rebuilt few years later by Dionysius
of Syracuse, only to fall again into
the hands of the Carthaginians under
Hannibal In 269. The first Punic
war, however, left the place in the
hands of the Romans, and the place
was of Importance second only to that
of Syracuse and Lilybaeum in Sicily
during period of Roman occupation
lasting for several centuries.
In 83l A. d. the town was taken
by the Saracens, but in 1861 1t was
taken from them by the Normans.
The city prospered greatly during the
Crusades, being favorite rendezvous
for soldiers from the continent en-
route to the Holy Land. IN the Mid
die Ages also 1t became q fiourishing
commercial city.
It's commercial Importance disap-
peared after bitter struggle between
the aristocratic faction, or Merli. and
the democratic faction, or Mavizzi. IN
1874. The democratic faction an
pealed to the French and the other to
the Spaniards. The former faction
were at first victorious. but eventual.
ly were deserted by the French. the
city was taken by the Spaniards, and
when the struggle was over the popu-
lation was reduced from 10000 to
about tenth of that number.
The town never fully recovered
from this disaster. Whatever recov-
cry was made was neutralized in the
eighteenth century by series of dis
asters. In 1740 about 40, 900 persons
died of the plague, and in 1883 the
town was almost entirely overthrow
by the great earthquake of that year.
Great damage was caused by bonn
bardment In September, 1848. The
cholera carried of no fewer than 49,
900 victims in 1854 and earthquakes
in 1894 and 1906 also caused loss of
life and property. In 1880 the town
was occupied by Garibaldi. 1t be-
came a part of united Italy the fol-
lowing year.
