VENICE, THE ISLAND CITY
LEARN Thing Day"
No. 2. cAMPANlLE AND DOCE'S PALACE
Copyright, 1913 by Newspaper School,

IN July IA. 1902, the Campanile or
~ bell tower of ST. Marks Cattle
dral fell to earth with a crash. Earth
quakes and rotting foundation at
length worked its ruin. But its re-
construction was begun in 1905, and
the new tower was completed in
1911, nine years after the fall.
The Campanile stands, as is usually
the case in Italy, detached from the
church. The first bell tower on this
site was built in 900. The one that
fell in 1902 was probably erected in
1929.
The Campanlle signified to the We
netians the greatness of Venice. 1t
was used as a watch tower before the
year 1000. Then in the twelfth and
thirteenth centuries it became a bell
tower also. Its bells rang out at
the first hint of danger to warn the
citizens of the republic. During later
times these bells announced the TAX
ing of Constantnople by Dandolo to
waiting and expeetant crowd; the

model of the old bell tower: but by
modifying the inside the weight has
been reduced 10000 tons.
The nucleus of the first Venice, be-
fore it was made the seat of govern
ment of the republic, is said to have
been the little district about the great
bridge over the Grand canal, which
still retains the name Rialto. But
as soon as the island group of Rive
Alto became the capital of the
Venetian republic a palace for the
Doge was erected near the open
mouth, on the site that its successor
still occupies. This earliest palace
was probably built about the year
500. 1t was burned down in 976 and
again in 1l06. The present magnifi-
cent building was a slow growth over
three centuries.

it is safe prediction that the Nationals
have proved themselves by far the best
fielding team in the league this season.
Errors are as scarce as hens teeth IN
the games played by them. and most
of their chances are of the diff1cult
variety. Griffith never upbraids player
for an error of commission. He wants
his men to try for everything that
comes their way, and does not OBJECT
to it if misplays occur. The result
is that he has a most AMBITIOUS lot Oh

Few errors have been charged to the
Nationals this season, and yet the team
has accepted a great many more chances
than most of its rivals.

He struck out nine of the Nationals.
Griffith has the smoothest working ball
team in the league. 1t is not only a bril-
liant defensive team but the system of
play is such that there appears to be n
thorough understanding between the
players as to what their every move VIII
be. This is apparent when there are men
on bases. There is never an instant when
the base runner and the batter are not
working together, and to this fact lpany
of the teams victories must be attributed.
Another good feature of the team is that
il hustles under all conditions 1t has
the greatest confidence in itself and the
fact that an opposing team has gained
a lead only makes it work all the harder

experiences with Shanks. He Is much

true when there are men on the bases

1t may be, of course, that the team VIII

that the Sox had more than their snare

James of the Boston Nationals was an
other pitcher for whom G6ifnth dickered

that club asked so enormous a price for
his release that Griffith would not take
