Catania, Sicily. May 11.-An earth
quake Friday night brought death and
destruction to many villages near Mt.
44Itna. The number of dead is Off
cially given as 139, with about $50 in
jured; but a large portion of the
devastated territory has not been in
spected.
The affected zone extends from
Zaffarana. the highest village on Mt.
4Etna, to the sea between Aci Resale
on the south and Giarre on the north.
1t includes Linera, the center of the
disturbance, Pisano and Santa Vener-
ina.
In Linera ITO persons were killed
and 80 injured. In Bongiardo 13 dead
and 27 injured have been taken from
the ruins. At Cosentini 16 were killed
and many injured.
The district presents spectacle OF
desolation, ruin and death. Peasants
rushed to meet the automobilists, i'm
ploring aid From the debris agoniz-
ing cries could still be heard. Others
asked that their injured relatives be
taken to Catania, as all train service
was abandoned.
For centuries this region has suf-
fered from earthquakes. owing to the
activity of Mt. 4Etna. Yet it is rela-
lively thickly populated, the land is
most fertile, vineyards growing with
little attention.
Where Linera stood is mass of ru-
ins. The village consisted of about
500 inhabitants. A majority of the
people escaped because the shock oc-
Cured when the men and some of the
women were working in the fields.
From the vineyards they saw their
houses falling and when they arriv ed.
breathless. at their homes, they found
only wreckage. with some of their
people buried beneath 1t.
Generals Trabucchi and Maccagatta
are in command of the rescue work,
which is being performed by soldiers,

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food

Indigestion and the attendant dis
comforts of mind and body are GER
tain to follow continued use of i'm
proper food.
Those who are still young and ro-
bust are likely to overlook the fact
that. as dropping water will wear a
stone away at last. SO will the use of
heavy, greasy. rich food, finally cause
loss of appetite and indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle of cause and effect in
their daily food. A N. Y. young wom-
an writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago had a lot Of trou-
BILE from Indigestion. caused by too
rich food. got SO / was unable to
digest scarcely anything. and medi-
cines seemed useless.
"a friend advised me to try Grape
Nuts food. praising 1t highly and as
a last resort. tried it. am thankful
to say that Grape-Nuts not only re-
lieved me of my trouble. but built me
up and strengthened my digestive or
gans so that l can now eat anything I
desire. But stick to Grape-Nuts."

FIGHT PLAGUE IN THE ORIENT
American AntI-TubereuIosis Society
Has Been Active In Movement for
Health Preservation.

tuberculosis is one of the most Sc
rious public health problems of the
Orient. Active organizations to fight
this disease have been formed In
Japan. the Philippines, India and Aus
Galia. A movement is on foot for
national organization in China and In
a number of cities local work has
been started. While no accurate fig
ures are available, those who are IN
position to know claim that consump-
ton takes annually from 100000 to
100000 lives In China alone. In In
dia the death rate is fully as high.
and on account of caste distinctions
and native superstitions, the problem
of prevention and treatment is pecu-
liarly difficult. The Japanese govern
ment has taken hand officially in
the control of tuberculosis. and Is
cooperating with two well-organiZed
private associations. The death rate.
while very high. is lower than in
China and India. Under the direction
OF the United States public health
service a movement for the preven-
ton of tuberculosis In the Philippines
has also been organized.
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis. with headquarters in New York
although organized especially for work
in this country. has been largely In
strumental in the establishment OF
anti-tuberculosis movements in most
of the oriental countries, as well as
In Africa and South America.

REFUSE TO GIVE UP ARMS.
U. S. Troops Get 72 Old Rifles and
Pistols From Tent Colony.

Pistols From Tent Colony.
Trinidad, Colo.-Strikers in the
Trinidad district, which included the
big tent colony at San Rafael heights.
whence the residents OF the destroyed
Ludlow colony went, Saturday surren-
dered ~ arms of all character to the
Federal army officers. Among the lot
were some with broken stocks, burst
barrels, broken hammers. and many
smallcaliber guns and pistols.
The military officers were disap-
pointed by the manner in which
Colonel Locketts proclamation of dis
armament was obeyed and determined
to give the strikers, mine operators
and citizens one more chance to sur
render their arms voluntarily.
All told. there were 725 arms re-
ceived by the federal commander Sat
urday in the Trinidad district. To
this nfmber the dealers in arms and
ammunition contributed largely, and
citizens surrendered many hunting
guns and small-caliber arms Very
few weapons which the army officers
considered truly serviceable were re-
ceived.
