Remains Of Four Unfortunates Are
Found by Investigators.

WY ahN a"stHh"uohht news Strttcf.b
Milan, Oct. Latter a lapse of
close upon 1900 years since the de-
struction of Pompeli, the skeletons of
four OF the victims have been dis
covered in the actual positions in
which they were overtaken by the
catastrophe.
Two of these victims, apparently a
man and wife belonging to the up
per classes, had evidently been
caught by the shower OF red hot
stones in the clustered garden of
their villa, and while Fastening to
seek shelter In a corner had been
suddenly buried and asphyxiated
through the collapse OF the roof over
laden with volcanic dust.
The husband was found in a sitting
position, with his head and back
bent forward and the legs wide apart
His wife was standing erect imme-
diately behind him. Her gold ear
rings were found on a level with her
ears, and there are two gold rings
still on the fingers.
A third skeleton was that of a
youth hIddling with his face to a
hole in the garden wall. The last of
the group, a full-siZed man, bent al
most double under the weight of the
suffocating debris, had on a finger OF
the right hand an iron ring inset
with a prettily engraved cornelian.

SUES GIRLS SCHOOL
TO CHANGE STREAM

Charles a. Douglas, executor and
trustee of the estate of Sydney f.
Marshall, filed suit yesterday in the
District Supreme Court against the
National Training School for Women
and Girls to compel them to change
the course of a stream which runs
through the property OF both the
plaintiff and the defendant.
The petition alleges that in the early
part Of 1917 the stream was diverted
from its usual course by the defend
ant, and caused considerable water
to accumulate on the adjoining prop
Grey of the plaintiff, and thereby pre-
venting him from readily selling the
property. One sale. the petition states,
has been lost because the prospective
purchaser objected to the pool of
water caused by changing the course
of the stream.
