strong earthquake shook the State Of

buildings from their foundations and
causing great damage.
A tidal wave which followed swept
over the city of Carrizaiuo, inundat-

in panic from the place and sought
refuge in nearby hills. Homes were
destroyed ana many were believed to
have been caught in the sudden on

chief buildings Of the town were
shaken on their foundations and lay
In partial ruins. Dispatches say there
was great damage there especially to
irrigation bitches.
No estimates were made as to the
loss of life.
Only those two towns were heard
from in the area stricken by the
quake and giant wave \ careful

This summary of Italy's atti-

liberator, and himself noted
soldier of the Italian army. AL

as friendly toward 1t.

spirit he will continue successful.

AS to conservation, 1t may be
said there was no destruction of

Another feature was the value
set on insect-eat ting birds. Among
