few survivors, as it has been impos.

Messina, which was the center of
the terrible maelstrom, and whose
tragic history has been marked by
tidal waves and war; is the greatest
sufferer. The beautiful little city has
been almost totally destroyed, and
the loss of life will in all probability
reach $4,000. Nearly every house in
the city collapsed. The line of pal
aces which surrounded Messina on
the sea side are nothing but ruins.

is also an old city, it's origin lost in

found of It in the works of Latin

Goths in 400 and was rebuilt by
Charlemagne In the ninth century. 1t
became a part of the Italian kingdom
in 1859 and at the time of the earth
quake was a thriving little city. II
was noted for its churches, works OF
art, and for an insane asylum, one OF
the best managed philanthropic in

Taormina, another city that has
figured prominently in the dispatches
since the earthquake, is down the
coast of Sicily from Messina. 1t has
in recent years become a popular re,

disaster there were many Americans
and English there. It's scenery is
