THE old campanile at Venice,
one of the most famous struc
tures in Italy, which fell ten
years ago alter naviug stoou
for a thousand years, has been rebuilt
and was recently dedicated with an
elaborate program of fetes. The pope
heard the bells ring by telephone, and
2,000 carrier pigeons, let loose from the
tower, bore the tidings to every city in
Italy.
It was on July 14, 1902, that the
campanile fell, due to the weakness of
the lower walls and the fact that they
had been cut away when the loggetta
was built iu the sixteenth century. The
added weight of the belfry, constructed
thirty years before that time, and the
weakened walls had been too much for
the old Uomau bricks that had already
done service iu the houses of the main
land for centuries before they were
carted to Venice from the ruins of Alti
num. Everybody the world over said that,
of course, the Venetians would rebuild
the fallen tower. Venetians and Ital
ians, with a grant from the state and
by public subscriptions, raised more
than $400,000 for rebuilding the cam
panile. Time moves slowly in Italy, and it
was not until April 25. 1903. that the
new foundation stone was laid by the
Count of Turin, representing the king
of Italy, and by the patriarch, repre
senting Pope Leo XIII. The founda
tions were completed three years later
at an expense of $20,000.
Investigation had proved that the old
foundations were never Intended to
support the massive weight of brick
and masonry that had from rinio to
time been added to the original struc
ture. The idea of rebuilding the old
foundations was hence abandoned, aud
the question arose whether they should

The latter scheme was adopted. A
ditch about sixteen feet was dug all
round the old foundation to the width
of about twelve feet and carefully brat
ticed. Into the area thus laid bare
they diove 3.076 piles of larcbwoud
from Cadore. rresn cut so i
the presence of abundance of resin.
The average diameter of the piles was
eight and one-half inches. The piles
were on an average thirteen feet long
and were driven home to what is
known to builders as absolute resist-ance-that
Is. until they yielded one
millimeter to each blow from a weight
of 570 poinds raised four feet all
Inches. .
These piles are calculated to have a
carrying power of 00.000 tons. The
weight of the new tower Is a little over
20,000 tons.
At the angles the plies are In eoa
tact with one another: elsewhere tb7
average a doaen to the square ytrd.
The total enlargement of the founda
tion amounted to 232 square yards.

Then came the attack on the old
foundations, consisting of a cut made
eight feet all round, so that the new
platform could be knitted to th old.
Then on the top of this new platform
massive Mocks of Itrian i.Jne cut In
paralleloplpede were carefully cement
ed together. Thee stones, noted for
their fine grain, were ia ',eT"
course and made to enter Into the o,d
foundations to the depth of !x feet
inches- The largest blocks were
feet nine inch In length and four feet
seven inches In width.
The whole tower Is linked topetber
