faith, and Istaeliles the deliverauce Of
the race from exterminstlOn by the
naughty and cruel II 'oIsu, prime mir

epgrs.t. d into the Jewish laws al tba,

log from the Book OF Esther. Tue feast
is not so extensively observed as many
of the other fessts Of the Jewish caller +

rim was inatilu ed as national one by

Tte Eruption Of Mount Etua.

Osianis, Sicily, March 25.-Thous-
ands Of people, rendered homeless by the
uew eruption OF Mt. Etns, which bids
fair to be the mos. destructive Of modern
times, are fleeing t)sard Osiania today,
the scene rivsling tbst OF 6iteeu months
ago, when this city became the refuge
Of msDy Of MessInA's earthquake SUI
ferers.
With Characteristic religious zeal the
people first tried to check the flow OF
lava by the interpolation Of holy imsges
and relics.
The eruption increased In violence tc-
day, six new craters opening 10 the side
OF the mountain.
A stream OF molten lava fifty fee! deep
aud half OF mile wide Is now sweeping
down the southern slops of!he mountain
ct the II t, OF ], 800 feet an hour. 1t hiss
already covered nine miles of the slope
and destroyed, either Ia part or In
whole, the yilIisges OF Borelle, Belpas-
80, ssu Leo Rinazzi, Oopello, and AL
bsIlano. Nlcolosi escaped destruction
through the fact that the town 10 shut In
by hills. The Laws surrounds the hills,
however, and most Of the people OF the
town have had.
Eighteen Gre ters are pouring out their
columns Of snlphurous vipor, stones, cln-
ders and lavs. These sepsrsts streams
rua together ST poiOt few miles down
the slope. The luln OF farms and the
obstruction OF homes have impoverished
the entire section. Government engt
neers tried in vain today to divert The
course Of the lava stream by binding
dams and digging bitches, tu! the o.
rush OF the molten food was too rapid and
swept away improvlsed obstacles. There
have been no repolta OF dssths yet, bot 1t
Is feared that several persons have been
Gu, oil and have persisted, A number
are known 10 be missing.
