ROSE AT
THE GRAND

slcal comedy, is scheduled here at

tween the artist and his millionaire
father arise, but are finally adjusted,
when 1t is learned that Lola the mod
Ell, is of royal blood, and would be an
acceptable member Of the family.

distinct characters and requires an un
usually large presenting company.
The action of the play is In three
acts, one OF which Is the famous stu
dents Ball of the Four Arts" an

no manuscripts existed In this city OF mercndhlS'
Herculaneum in the time of it's prosperity oc-
cupied to Rome somewhat the position which
suburban town of wealth in the vicinity OF a
great city fills today. Weto-do citizens OF
Rome resorted thither for the benefit OF their
health as it's air was believed to be particularly
exhilaratng Rest and quiet from the disturbing
influences of the great center were found IN the
luxurious villas which were situated in and
around Rerculaneum. There seems to nave been
no industry in the town except fishing, and the
character Of the ruins suggests that, like such a
prosperous suburban retreat Of today, the settle
ment rejoiced in all that wealth and care could
afford of beauty and convenience
Agrippina the elder according to Seneca, was
the owner of one of the most gorgeous Of the
villas in Herculaneum which, it is believed, was
destroyed by the Emperor Caligula because his
mother had once been imprisoned therein. An
other splendid villa was the Casa del Papfri. The
Nonii of Nuceria were also among the aristocrats
of the time who had villas in the charming little
town.
According to Professor Hughes "Herculaneum
is buried not under lava, rarely under natural
cement but generally under locally consolidated
tuff (tuff is the word most commonly used when
the ash is SO far consolidated to break into
lumps) Seeing that we have reason to believe
that at least much ash has fallen since the
first century A. D. as fell in 70 A. D., the first
thing to do is to endeavor to distinguish between
the successive eruptions. If could find at the
bottom of a layer of ash just enough pottery or
other relics to enable us to identify them be-
longing to the seventeenth century earlier,
that line should be traced with the greatest
remote past and perhaps somewhere make out
upon satisfactory evidence how deep part
of Herculaneum was buried in the eruption OF
70 A D."
