WORK OF VOLCANO
EXPLANATION OF DESTRUCTION
OF soDoM AND GOMoRRAH.
Scientist Satisfied He Has DISCOVERIES
Agent by Which the Two Wicked
Cities Were Wiped from
the Earth.

Ellsworth Huntington, head Of thu
recent Yale expedition to Palestine
declares that he has verified the Bible
story Of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Hundreds Of pages" he says IN
Harper's Magazine. have been writ
ten to prove that the story is q
myth. or that the ancient towns were
destroyed by the bursting forth oi
oil wells like those of Texas or Balal
which sometimes are ignited and
burn for days. Other hundreds oi
pages have been devoted to proving
that Sodom and Gomorrah were or
were not at the north end Of the Dead
sea, and that they were or were not
buried. under the saline deposits at
either end Of the lake.
Among recent writer's there seems
to be tendency to believe that
Sodom and its sister town were prob.
ably located at the south end of the
lake, where the name Usdom is
thought to represent Sodom, and
where Arab tradition now locates the
Inflated cities. The means of their
destruction are believed to have been
the oil wells mentioned above. This
rather unsatisfactory conclusion has
been adopted largely because it has
been supposed that no volcano is To-
Gated in such position that it could
have borne any part in the story.
According to the story in Genesis
Lot and Abraham were at Bethel, ten
miles north of Jerusalem. when their
herdsmen quarreled and they decided
to separate. And Lot lifted up his
eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the
Jordan, that It was well watered
everywhere, before Jehovah destroyed
Sodom and Gomorrah like the garden
of Jehovah. like the land Of Egypt,
as thou goest unto Zoar. So Lot chose
him all the Plain Of Jordan
Then the story goes on to the time
when Jehovah rained upon Sodom
and upon Gomorrah birthstone and fire
from Jehovah out Of heaven while
Lot fed to the near town of Zoar.
He did not stay long, but went out of
Zoar and dwelt In the mountain-in a
cave
Having freshly read the story and
having looked over the strong argu.
ments for locating the towns south
of the Dead sea and for believing
them to have been destroyed by some
thing in the nature Of bituminous out
bursts. was taken by surprise when
visited the little ruins of Suweimeh
and picked up bits of genuine scoriace-
Gus lava. while the sheikh who acted
as guide told the story Of Sodom as
the story Of Suweimeh Of Suweim.
The name may be a corruption of
Sodom.
Il went into the mountains at once
from Suweim in order to see where
The lava came from. As we climbed
the lower hills the sheikh noticed
that l picked up black pieces of lava
and broke them open.
Don't bother with those, he said.
Up here, pointing southeast, there is
whole mountain of black rock like
that"
