ETNA IN ERUPTION
Earthquake, Destruction and Death

Alive In Ruins.

Catania, Italy-An earthquake Sat
urday afternoon brought death and de-
struction to many villages on and near
Mount Etna. The number Of dead up
to Monday morning was officially Civ
en- as 1873, with about $50 injured, but
as yet large portion of the devastat-
ed territory has not been inspected.
The affected zone extends from Zaf-
farana, the highest village on Mount
Etna, to Blanca Reale, on the south,
and Clare, on the north. 1t includes
Linera, the center Of the disturbance,
Pisano and Santa Venerina-
In Linera alone ITO persons were
killed and 300 injured. In the village
Of Bongiardo, 13 dead and 81 injured
were taken from the ruins. At Cosen-
tint Is were killed and many injured.
At Passopomo II persons were
killed; at Malata II; at Santa Ven
erina s; Santa Tecla 2; Santa Maria
Vergine g.; Garbati A.
These villages and many smaller
places were practically leveled.
Automobiles which made the TRIP
through the devastated region were
often forced to make long detours ow
ing to the deep assures across tbs
road.
The district presented a spectacle o.
desolation, ruin and death. Peasants
rushed to meet the automobiles, i'm
ploring aid. From the debris, agoniz
ing cries could still be heard Other
asked that their injured relatives b
transported to Catania, as all trail
service was abandoned, owing to tn
collapse of bridges, broken tracks an
obstructed tunnels.
For centuries this region has SUI
fered from earthquakes, owing to tn
activity of Mount Etna. Yet it is rel
atively thickly populated, as the Ian
is most fertile, vineyards GROWN

Near the central point of the disturb
ance dozens of bodies were observe
lying along the road. Many of ther
were unacceptable, as they wei
crushed. Heart-rending lamentatior
arose on all sides, and the injured Ia
in the open awaiting assistance whic

Report American Orderly
Killed By Mexican Troops

Vera Cruz, Mex.-Private Parks,
orderly for Lieutenant Colonel Elmore
Taggart, who disappeared inside of
Mexican lines Saturday with two of
Colonel Taggart's horses, was put to
death by the Mexicans, near Tejera,
according to report received here.
This information, however, was not
regarded as conclusive. A Mexican
railroad man, the authority for the re-
port, said he was told by one of Mas
soldiers, with whom he had a talk in
the vicinity of the alleged execution,
that Parks had been killed. He said
also that the Mexican soldier told him
that two nights before another man
dressed like an American soldier had
been executed.
