"A city which was seized after

six centuries before the battle off
Santiago bay"
Such, according to bulletin from
the Washington, D. c., headquarters
of the National Geographic society is
Pisa, whose leaning tower was en-
dangered by recent earthquake tre-
mors in Italy.
"Pisa's record abounds in incidents
as freakish as it's famous tower; yet
it possesses a history necessarily more
significant than any British or Amer
lean city. For the English speaking
town may be rich in municipal annals,
but Pisa attained a national status
and conquered coveted territory.

was a very mean city indeed, it was
nurtured during the heyday of the
empire, and was among the first of
the Italian cities to emerge from that
chrysalis into robust independence.
indicative of Pisa's Importance in
the 18th century was her sending an
ambassador to Rome. Thereby hangs
the story of the lap dog. During the
coronation ceremonies of Frederick I
the Florentine emissary admired the
lap dog of a certain cardinal, so that
dignitary promised to give the tiny
animal to it's admirer. Next day the
Pisan ambassador said few kind
words about the same dog, and the
cardinal just as readily promised it to
him. The Florentine sent for his gift
and got it; the Pisan sent and re-
ceived an apology. Florentines began
Joking the Pisans about this incident
and fights ensued on the Roman
streets. When the Pisan home folks
heard this it gave then an excellent
chance to pick quarrel that had
long been simmerilg A sort of me-
dieval Boston tea party was staged by
the Pisans, who seized all the enemy
merchandise within their reach ana

NAV have missed a few the Eloren-
tines had chased the PiSans back to
their own city An eagle, revered BY
the Pisans as were wolves in Rome
and lions in Florence, escaped to the
enemy camp. The bird was killed,
dragged back to Florence and there
was great rejoicing over the omen
of Pisa's capture.
''Were a super Rip Van Winkle Of

New York might make him feel at

flowers they were called, these Pi-
sa skyscrapers, huddled together for
all the world like groups of tall apart
ment houses. Two reasons are as
signed for this method of building,
common to Italian towns of the 18th
century. One was that the walls per-
mitted only vertical expansion when
population pressure increased. An
other, believable in view of the con-
slant factional fights and family feuds
attributed to them, to the necessity
for protection.
bridges that could be thrown from
tower to tower further suggested the
skyscraper likeness. On these pre-
cursors of the modern fire escape
many a community battle has ragged.
To quote one vivid description: Man.
tronels or catapults huge engines sta
toned on the roofs of the towers, sent
masses of stone hurting through the
air, whistling arbelast bolts and
clothyard shafts flew in thick show
ers, boiling oil or lead rained down
on the heads of those who ventured
down to attack the doors, and arrows
with nice aim into the wooden bal
comics and bridges. The shouts and
shrieks of the combatants were min
gled with the crash of falling tower
or with the kissing of fire arrow.
Where those struck, red glow arose
and a thick cloud of smoke envelop-
ed the defenders
Cali of which goes to prove that
Pisa's interest lies far deeper than the
architectural curiosity that has made
it famous. Even the tower served
humanity we'll, aside from becoming
the most effective bit of city advertis-
ing yet devised, for it permitted Gal
ileo, native of Pisa, to carry on his
experiments with the laws governing
the pendulum.
"Moveover the tower is but one
part of what has been called the most
famous group of architecture in the
world, after that of st. Marks place
in Venice The other parts are the
Duomo, or cathedral, and the Bap-
tistry. The chandelier still hangs in
the former which, by it's sWaying, is
said to have set Calico to Investigate
ing the pendulum.
Both these noble piles contain
relics that recall events of Pisa's COM
posite history. One art piece, the
Santa Maria Soto glo Organi (St.
Mary Under the 0rgan) so called
from it's position, is known to have
been in Pisa since the 18th century.
The picture has been conspicuous in
service and in professions, yet it is
believed that no eye saw it from that
time until December 13, 1889. There
is tradition, recalling the experience
of those who profaned the Biblical
ark, that all who tried to lift it's wells
were stricken.
when a severe earthquake shook
Pisa in 1916 this Madonna was SOL
emnly crowned in thanksgiving for
the city's escape. Even now the pic
ture is unveiled only in times of great
distress.'
