ZIG ~
Naples. March 15.-lt has just been
learned that the historic monastery OF
Monte Casino, near this city, where
st. Benedict In 500 A.. ID. founded the
religious order bearing his name, was
damaged badly by the recent earth
quake. The library is almost at the
point Of collapse. In Emperor VIII
liam's hall, so called from the visit
paid by the kaiser to the monastery in
1904. there is a large assure about 200
feet long. The right wing OF the build
ing Is almost detached from the main
structure. This wing stands at the
edge of an abyss. into which it would
be precipitated. owing to its weakened
position, should there be a recurrence
Of the earthquake.
Alarm Is felt for the safety Of his
toric art treasures in the monastery.
In the library is a priceless codex. The
threatened right wing contains many
objects associated with the early
Christian era and with the middle
ages.
The monastery is used as an eccle-
siastical training college. which now
has 300 students. News of the damage
to the monastery has been suppressed
hitherto to avoid spreading alarm
among the relatives Of these students.

ia, would succeed himself. The final
tally Of votes, however, showed that
Ed s. johnson. a Democrat. had won
the honor. When Senator Crawford
was elected six years ago he won by a
big vote. Last election Ed Johnson
beat him handily.
The new senator. by the way, Is
something of a character. He is a
fundamental as well as a political Dem
ocrat. That is probably the reason he
was chosen to represent South Dakota
in the United States senate. He lives
in Yankton and is universally and COM
monty known as Ed. No frills for Sen
ator Ed s. johnson. He desires to be
known as just plain Ed. and so history
in all probability will record him.

LAND SALE IN MINNESOTA
Two Million Acres Will Be Put on
Market May 10.

Approximately 100000 acres OF
government lands in the Red Lake
reservation district in this state, ly.
ing north of Red Lake and south of
Lake of the Woods and Rainy river,
will be placed on sale May 10. The
sale will be conducted under the
provisions of the Volstead law, which
provides that lands in the drainage
districts, which are unentered or un-
patented, may be sold at $1.25 per
acre, plus the usual filing fee, to pay
for the ditching charges.
The sales are restricted to 160-acre
allotments. The lands usually are Of
fered in forty-acre tracts, competitive
bids being accepted on each tract.
All bids in excess of the amount of
the delinquent payment go to the gov
ernment as a bonus on the land.
Large crops of timothy and clover
are being raised on these lands. Flax
and root crops do well. Wheat and
corn do not grow well where the peat
content of the soil is predominant.
