IHE VESDV1AN TERROR.
Vivid Description of Grrat Erup
tion Which Rirtls 2jm
pcii' Destruction.
The Famous Italian Novelist, Marion
Crawford, TelU o( tho Terrors of
the Big Volcano History of For
mer Eruption.
Tbe whole world looked on. awe
struck, at the rocnt nerve outbreak of
stupendous and devastating force In
the Bay of Naples. The eruption of
Mount Vesuvius Is believed to be the
most destructive since the days of IVm
peil. A. D.. 79.
Ths whole story of the eruption of
1906 Is a sorrowful tale of stricken vic
tims, devastated vineyards, ruined
hcJtaes and terror-stricken, filing peo
ple. and It is hard to realite that the
same w-cnes have boen enacted there so
many times before.
Pliny, tbe noted ancient historian,
described the eruption of Vesuvius In
the year "79. in a series of letters to
Tacitus. This letter described a dark
cloud rising In a single pillar from the
crater of the mountain and from this
a column spread, and upon it rested
a great roof, built by Invisible carpen
ters. Resting ever on Its single pillar,
like a great mushroom, this roof shut
out the sky from all those wide acres
extending sixteen miles away. The
light ashes of the fire from Vesuvius
descended like snow upon Potnpeil.
burying it to great depths. Hercu
laneum was drowned In a sea of vol
canic mud.
Those who have read the letters of
Pliny And similarity in the description
written by the noted novelist. Marlon
Crawford. There Is probably no other
American living who Is so well ac
quainted with conditions as they exist
in Italy. He has taken up his per
manent abode in the Italian hills. The
VESUVIUS I.N
life, customs and mannerisms of the
Italian have been pictured by him In
stories which have made him famous.
In bs cabled description to the New
York Times Crawford stated that the
recent eruption of Vesuvius had been
grumbling for many weeks before the
outbreak which did the Incalculable
damage.
Smoke Two-Miles High.
"An enormous volume of black smoke
rises to a height of two miles above
the crater," he wrote. "Incandescent
masses of stone are thrown up 3,000
feet. A continuous southeasterly wind
carries the ashes over Naples, which
is so completely enveloped in darkness
that for three days our communications
by sea have been cut off.
"Fissures have opened far below the
cone, emiting many Etreame of lava,
one of which has completely destroyed
the town of Boscotrecaee, which had
10,000 inhabitants. Another las reached
the outskirts of Torre ck-1 Greco. Others
have destroyed thousands of acres of
. fertile cultivated land, with farmhouses
and Btock.
"The great cone of Vesuvius col
lapsed with awful thundering and
flames, and the cable railway, the ob
servatory and the large hotel near It
were all totally destroyed. The lava
carried vast masses of burnt stone and
6ulphur on Its surface like dross on
melted lead, and nothing was visible
toward EoBcotrecase but endless acres
of dark scoriae, broken here and there
by the greenieh curling smoke of sul
phur. I
"At one point we found a great pine !
tree, torn up by its roots and turned
to black charcoal; the air was almost
unbreathable; the heat intense. Tne
faces of the people who crowded upon
the edge of the arrested Htream ex
pressed terror of exhaustion from re
cent panic.
Feeble Attempts of Man Useless.
"When the 6tream of fire threatened
Boscotrecase 6oldiers dug a wide ditch
across its patch in the hope of divert
ing its course, but the molten stream
advanced like a colossal serpent of fire,
turning its head to the right and left
as a snake does, but keeping it3 general
direction toward the fated town. It
was not till it reached the first house,
sending up great showers of sparks,
that the people finally fled for their
lives.
"I saw men, women and children, and
infants whose mothers carried them at
the breast or in their aprons. Dogs,
too, and cat6 were on the carts, and
sometimes even chickens, tied togeth
er by the legs, and piles of mattresses
and pillows, all white with dust under
the lurid glare. We ourselves could
hardly breathe."
This dispatch corresponds exactly in
detail to Pliny's letters. The same
flaming mountain and shaking earth,
the same stifling smoke and ashes, the
same terrifying darkness and the Baroe
helpless, distracted crowd stretching
vain hands to their gods for succor.
Originally Vesuvius was in the form
of a single cone. Later eruptions have
broken down the southern side of the
original crater, leaving the northern
seml-olrcle, which Is called Monte
Somma, A smaller central cone had
grown op within the ancient ruin. Ir
is this inner cone that bad its top
blown off. Before the recent eruption
the height cf the mountain t?hs about
4,000 feet.
Hit w1 V
In prehistoric days Vesuvius was
probably t M as high, the top having
been blown off centuries before ths
eruption that destroyed Pompeii. Sines
the year ltol Vesuvius has never been
wholly at rest In that year 1S.000 lives
were lost. Tbe clouds of steam that
came frooLthe rush of water into the
hot mass below the surface condensed
and fetl in a boiling rain that scorched
everything with which It came In con
tact. The very sea drew back the skirts
of its dark blue robe and then srpt
forward again far beyond Ut o!d limits.
The last of the great convulsions be
fore the recent one occurred In 1ST.
Then, like this one, there was a great
lava flow, together with throwing up of
burning rock and the fall of ashes upon
the surrounding country.
Vesuvius Is one of a group of similar
mountains In the Mediterranean Sea.
Its comrades being .Ktna, Strom boll
and Vuttano, which Inst gave the name
to all mountains of this kind. That, In
turn, was called after Vulcan, the god
who made the armor for the fighting
deities of the ancient world aud forged
the very thunderbolts of Jove himself.
His workshop was under Mount .tna.
There the inhabitants of the hillsides
heard him shaping great masses of
iron with his terrible hammer stroke
while the nameless slaves of the forge,
dimly imagined creatures of that old
day, blew the gigantic bellows and held
great bars In place, while the master
worked. The Greeks with even their
learning, did not Inquire Into the scien
tific reasons for the mighty utterings
of the mountain; they knew what the
awful roar of those volcanic mountains
meant. And our wise men. with their
figures and books, know little of what
is going c in the fiery caverns under
the earth's thin ctust.
Nature soon heals her scars. Al
ready, we are told In dispatches, spots
of green hare appeared on the black
ened sides of Mount Pelee. and It will
not be very long before the olive and
the Tine and the clustering Tillages
will find their way back again to the
slopes ol Vesuvius. -
ERUPTION.
TO RENEW OLD MISSION.
San Juan Caplstrano Will Uve Again
After Long Years of Silence.
All who have heard of the picturesque
old Franciscan Missions of California
will be interested to learn that San
Juan Capistrano, the most poetic of all
these ruined structures, which contrib
ute so much to the foreign look of "our
Italy," is soon again to be made the
centre of religious activity, and that
after nearly a century of neglect its
buildings are to be restored to their
original estate.
This mission Is on the railway line
between Los Angeles and San Diego,
and by reason of being visible from
the railroad is to Eastern travelers per
haps the best known of all California
missions, except Santa Barbara and
San Gabriel, which are among the
regulation eights for visitors to South
ern California. With the restoration
of San Juan Capistrano and the re
sumption of residence there by the
Franciscan Brotherhood, it, too, will
no doubt soon become a tourist resort
The Urn year of the American In
dependence saw work begun upon this
ancient edifice in what was then a vast
wilderness, inhabited only by Indians.
The site is in a lovely, sequestered val
THE QUADRANGLE
ley, which, beginning back in the can
yons of the coast range, winds among
grassy knolls and great treeless hills
out to the Pacific, upon which It opens,
three miles west of the mission. With
the aid of the Indians, over whom the
padres exerted both temporal and spir
itual dominion, the Franciscans estab
lished here the most pretentious of all
the California mission churches. In
stead of being constructed of the cus
tomary adobe brick of the country, it
was built of stone, laid out in the form
of a Latin cross, with a great, cloistered
quadrangle adjoining. Here, besides
administering to the spiritual welfare
of tbe Indians and gathering them into
the fold of the church, the fathers set
them to the care and the cultivation
of the land, which yielded great wealth
cf cattle, sheen, gialu. Kiaues and
olives.

On the morning of December 8. ISIS,
all without warning, came a great catas
trophe. While the church was crowded
with kneeling worshipers a, shock, of

wreckage of bans. tiles and stones,

tempt seems to have been made by the
padres to restore the church edifice,
and It and Its adjoining buildings and
cloisters have remained to this day an
imposing and beautiful ruin. Touched
gently by Time s hand, dignified in out
line and rich In color. It Is replete with
subjects for the artist and is the ad
miration of every traveler. With the
restoration of the buildings the In
tention Is to create here a college for
the priesthood as at Santa liar bar a,
and to make of San Juan Capistrano
an important factor in the work of the

California.
THE LOVE OFAIARIC.
Beneath the out flung branches of a
mighty oak tree, a giant who had
stood sentinel In that lonely dip on
tne woius ior twice three hundred
years, two men were standing, their
figures nude more or. less distinct by
the rays of a .Mg.'contcal lantern of
antique, pattern that tho elder of the
two carried in his gnarled and blood
less fingers, a figure strangely 'akin
to the giant tree beneath which he
stood.
An aged man was Zachary Dcy. bis
back bent by years of hard labor such
as few of the modern generation of la
borers know; a man who had been an
experienced farmhand, while the man
beside him, his master, was still a
puling Infant
The old fellow set down lis lantern
on the iron-bound earth. Ills quaver
ing voice stabbed the silence. "Now.
do 'ee harken unto me, Master Alaric."
he said slowly. "I've served 'ee faith
ful, you and your feyther afore 'ee,
for nigh on fifty year, and I tell 'ee
master, that what 'ee do purpose for
to do Is again all right and reason.
This yere oak tree the Klngscote
Oak, as all the country-side do know
her for to be ha' bin here as a land
mark and a pride for longer than us
poor bouIs can reckon. To cut her
down do mean, as I be right well as
sured, that Klngscote luck will fall
wi 'un. If so he "
Alaric Klngscote broko In upon his
garrulity with a forced laugh.
"If Klngscote luck could fall lower
than it has, Zachary," he said bitterly,
"you need have little fear that I
would touch bark with axe. Now, hear
me, old friend. This tree represents
the last thing upon the farm that, can
bring in the money I must have to
tide over the bad times in store. The
merchants have offered me two hun
dred pounds for the tree. There's only
one rotten limb upon it. They'll
come tomorrow with their carts and
take it away." He laid his hand upon
the old man's shoulder. "Get you
home to bed, Zachary," he added gent
ly. "You can do nothing here. I ts
9 o'clock now. By midnight, with
OF THE MISSION
luck, the Klngscote Oak will be down."
The old fellow looked wistfully in
to the handsome face of his young
master.
"Master Alarlc," he eald hoarsely.
"I've fifty-five 'pun, three shlllln and
fl'pence 'apenny laid away in a hole
In the floor o'my cottage. If ho be as
that'll fsave th: Klngscote Oak,

"Go home with you Zachary," Broke
In the young man roughly, though his
roughness hid an emotion almost too
deep for any words "Go home, and
Cod bless you, old friend."
Zachary thrust his roughened hand
across his eyes. Without another
word, a strangely pathetic, bowed old
figure, he turned and sbantsied off
across the field toward the sMle Into
the lane that led to the little thatched
cottage that had been tils home for
so many years, lie never once looked
back, fur a few seconds Alarlc King
cote stood looking after hlru, then,
with a strangely tierce irwtturo, the
young fellow flung off hta rough tweed
coat, removed the Cardigan waistcoat
that covered the breadth of his chest,
and turned up. the sleeves of his
coarse flannel shirt.
At tho foot of the onlc lay the wood
man e huge axe that was to be the Itt
trum"U of death, that was to cut
short tho growth of centuries.
Alarlc Klngscoto swung the great
weapon aloft, and the cold starlight
ran kwg the shining steel. Like
some Viking warrior of old like the
re-rtnbodltnent of ono of his Saxon
forebears. Alario brought down the
tool of destruction with a blow that
gashed deep Into the corrugated skin
of the oak. The doom of the Klngscote
Oak had been proclaimed.
As he stood braced up for the second
stroke, the bulging sinews of his fore
arm responding to tho generous rise
of chest and thUh muscles, a curious
!onn1 from behind him caused him
to twins round with a faint cry. Then
he lowered the axe with auiaxlng gen
tleness. Another figure had appeared upon
the sceno the figure of a woman, clad
in a cloak of fur that hid the coutour
of her form.
"Dumarls.' Tho word fell from tho
young man's lips like a caress.
II.
"So you've come,- ho said softly.
"You see I am aa good as my word.
The Klngscote Oak must go. It Is the
last link between mo and the work
housefor it almost comes to that."
It was evident that the relationship
between these two was something
more blndlug that the ordinary ties
existent between casual acquatutauccs
of opposite sex. Kach seemed to ac
cept the situation as Inevitable. Then
tho girl went on. hurriedly:
"You'll catch cold. Alarlc. dear, if
you stand still without your coat In
this bitter cold. Let mo hold the
lantern :or you while you work."
She snatched up the light. He,
obedient to her Injunction, applied
his weapon with renewed vigor. The
lamplight threw a warm glow over
his weather-tanned face and muscular
arms.
For a tlmo ho labored on. his wholo'
being concentrated on the performance!
of his herculean task. After a space
he iwused to rest. A great wound on
the mighty bole of the oak showed
how sure had been his strenuous
endeavors.
When he ceased she broke l.ito
tiiiitrf tir-isri
-4..i e'v
"It seems incredible." she murmur
ed, "that you. a Klngscote. of tho same
race, the same blood as ourselves,
should be forced to toll like this like
a common laborer," The man camo
quickly forward, and iluug his arm
around her waist. Their Hps met In
u kiss that could not be mistaken for
a mero cousinly snlutlon.
"DamarU Klngscote," he Bnld,
steadily enough, "let us be frank one
with the other. What are the facts?
I am tho poor relation the blot on
the family 'scutcheon of the squire,
vour father. He resents my proximity;
loathes the very Idea of our hrvc;
therefore he has brought his batteries
to bear upon me and mine. All that
he could do to ruin me ho has done,
and heaven knows that ho had been
successful enough.
Tho girl's eyes brimmed over with
tears. Alarlc was quick to note her
ready sympathy and. he gripped his
axe anew, the sllenco vibrating once
more with tho ringing cadence of his
rhythmic blows.
Presently he rested once araln.
"Damarls," he said, "did you ever
hear the legend that runs in our
branch of the family, that but for
some strange whim of chauco 1 should
have been In the squire's place today,
the ruler of the destiny of Klngscoto
Glebe Farm? From father to son the
tradition has been handed down that

the truth only be known aright I should
be reigning ut Kingscoto Manor In
stead of being what I ara-a pauper,,
fated to cut down the family tree to
raise a pitiful sum of money that must
bo procured.
Damarls stood speechless and Alarlc
once more resumed his heavy taBk.
Finally, after long and weary toil,
the end came. With a cry to the girl,
Alaric flung down his axo and leaped
backward. His hand sought hers.
Side by side drawn apart from the
tottering giant, they stood as though
spellbound, the only spectators of the
end of so many hundred years of
silent, strenuous majesty,
And even as the mighty tree went
shuddering to its tremendous fall, n
crack as of a pistol shot, foreshadow
ed its overthrow. The noise came
from the one rotten bough that the
tree had possessed a IniRe limb some
half-way up Its stem, which now ne
tachlng first from it parent crashed
down at tho very feet or the wonder
tr.tr con ole.
Nor was that all. A metallic tinkle
accompanied the crash. Damarls was
the first to recognize the solution of
the nuzzle,
It was a metal canister a long,
time-stained box of rusted tin, closed
at both ends a thing of mystery, of
untold possibilities. She picked It up,
and as she did so one end ren away.
Tho canister contained nothing but
i stained yellow piece of parenment,
anon which something was written
in a close and crabbed caligraphy,
archaic, hard to decipher,
Alarlc swung the lantern up from
ihn eround.
"What is it, Damarls?" he asked
hreathleeslv.
Slowly, laboriously, the girl read out
the following amazing declaration
"Mayhap a day will come when that

The parchment fluttered crisply
from tho girl's nerveless hands.
"Pumarls." cried Alarlc hoarsely

not find.
Tho girl ralK.M her head.
"It Is tnt. It U true!" sho said
brokenly. "Wo, father aud I. are the
