Great Scientist Burned To Death Had
MECALLI OF VESUyICs
Interesting Career.

ITALY. March24.-- Prof. Giuseppe
Mercalli. the world-renowned author
ity on volcanic and seismic phenomena
and director Of the Vesuvian observa-
tory. who met his death by being
burned alive through the overturnins
OF a parafin lamp in his bedroom Thurs
day morning. had a most intering
career.
Professor Mercalli. who was sixty
four years of age. was a Milanese by
birth. He became a priest in the Ro-
man Catholic chursh, and subsequently
was appointed professor of natural
science at the seminary of Milan. Sus-
pected of liberalism, he was deprived OF
his PROFESSIONAL chair for openly sub
scribing to the national monument In
honor of the great priest philosopher,
Antonio Rosmia.
The italian government thereupon
conferred upon him a professorship at
Domodossala- and late at Reggie di
Calabria and Naples, where he sue
ceeded Professor Matteucci.
The deceased scientist was the au-
thor of no fewer than $50 publications
relating to the mysterious phenomena
to the study to which he devoted his
life. His works have been translated
into twenty eight languages. He was
also the inventor of the famous Mer-
CALI scale for calculating force in de-
grees of earthquake shoks.
Professor Mercalli never abandoned
the simplicity of living to which he
was accustomed during his ecclesias
teal career, and until his death he
habitually DOM ed the garb OF an
Anglican clergyman. So absorbed was
he In his favorite studies that when
at IL o'clock one mmorning the Naples
University authorities went to ascertain
II he was coming to preside over an
examination then due. they found him
engrossed In study, with his shutters
fast closed and the room brilliantly
lighted by gas. He had toiled right
through the night.

voice OF science. You aare Joking 1t

self few tricks. Never has a player
improved more than Pipp between the
time he left Detroit last summer and

The absence OF Gaskins and Ham
Arnall was greatly felt by the regulars
and 1t was not until the eleventh
hour that they could collect them
selves. No one could turn the famous
