ABOUT 2OO,OOOLTVES LOST
The Most Terrible Earthquake in History. Suf
fering and Destitute People Panic Stricken

Rome, Dec. %. Over hundred thou
sand dead; Messina, in Sicily, and
Reggie and a score of other towns in
southern Italy overwhelmed; the en-
tire Calabrian region laid waste this
is the earthquake record so far as is
at present known from the reports
that are coming slowly into Rome on
account of the almost complete de-
struction of lines of communication
to the stricken places.
The death list in Messina ranges
from 1900 to 5000; that of Reggie,
which, with it's adjacent villages.
numbered $4,000 people, includes a!
most the entire population. At Palmi,
1000 are reported dead; at Cassano,
1000; at Cosenza, 500, and half the
population of Bagbara, about 4, 900.
The Monteleone region has been
devastated, and Piposto, Seminara,
San Giovanna, Scilla, Lazzaro and
Cannitello and all other communes
and villages bordering on the straits
are in ruins.
The King and Queen of Italy are
now on their way to Messina. They
sailed tonight from Naples aboard
the battleship Vittorio Emmanuele.
The Pope has shown the greatest
distress at the calamity, and he him
self was the first to contribute-a sum
amounting to 5000, 000-to the relief
of the afflicted. British, French and
Russian warships are steaming to-
ward the south, and already several
of the ships of Great Britain and
Russia have reached Sicily. Officers
and men Of these ships have perform
ed heroic service in the work of res
cue.
It is feared that many foreigners
have been killed, as number of
the hotels at Messina and doubtless
at other places were crowded with
tourists.
Little is known of the fate of the
diplomatic representatives of the
foreign powers stationed at these
posts, although the Italian Govern
ment is using every effort to relieve
the anxiety felt on their account.
There is the greatest danger that a
pestilenee will follow the destruction
of the towns, where, on account OF
the vast havoc wrought, bodies will
lie unburied for days and weeks:
Those who escaped death, many OF
whom are badly injured, are making
their way by the thousands to the
nearest place of refuge.
Their suffering even now must be
intense, as they are without food or
clothing.

A NEW METHOD.
Teacher Evolves Novel Way to
Interest Pupils.

The principal in district No. 1872 sent
the names of his pupils to a county
superintendent of schools in Texas
and requested that she hand the list
to teacher who would promise to let
the pupils in her school write letters
to the pupils in his school.
Letters were received and the pupils
in district No. 1872 replied, describing
the climate, occupations and crops in
this neighborhood and sent speci-
mems of different kinds of wood and
also of the grains raised here. In re-
turn they have now received rice on
the straw, Spanish moss, twigs of
orange trees, myrtle and wild peach
and specimens of different kinds of
wood and flowers. It is an interest
ing way to study geography and the
children take great deal of interest
in it, especially because they send
photo postal cards taken in the sur
rounding country and receive others
from Texas in return. This work,
while really being practice in COM
position and letter writing, is at the
same time supplementary to the text
book in geography and thus serves
two purposes.-W Weekly.

Cleanup Notice.

The time of the year is at hand
when the citizens of the town should
begin the work of cleaning back yards
and alleys of all Objectionable debris
which has collected during the winter
months.
All rubbish should either be burned
or hauled away to the dumping
ground. There is tendency on the
part of some of our citizens to dump
manure in various low places about
the town. This cannot be allowed
except by special permission from the
the council, which will require all such
filing to be covered within 10 days by
8 inches of earth. A small expendi-
ture in keeping back yards and alleys
in presentable shape will in the long
run prove profitable, not only in pro-
noting healthful conditions but in
sending up the value of property it
self.
1t is therefore desired that every
one begin this work as early as con-
ditions will permit.
By order of Board of Health.
