|W Present Eruption Recalls the
9e| Destruction of Pompeii.
B SPEOTAOBE PRESENTED SUBLIME
<An Immense Coluiuk of Mnnke Gr«at
Tonguns of Flame Are ImnQi* g Fi*«»iu the
New tlratev, While Shower* «»f < ituiora
Are Falling Around —Ha Activity la
Now Increasing.
Naples, Nov. 13.—The eruption of
Mount Vesuvius, which began ou Mon-
is increasing in activity. The
mSI spectacle now is subiime. Great col
!■ uuihb of smoke and huge tongues of
flame are issuing from the central
||iV crater, while showers of cinders are
falling around.
The eruption has assumed a character
now which calls to mind the meinora
ble eruption of this same volcano 18
centuries ago, when Pompeii, Hercula
neutn, Stabiae and other places within
a range of 20 miles were buried in ashes,
» their inhabitants perishing.
Lava began pouring last Monday from
gHI the Atrio del Cavallo crater, which
opened in 1895, and soon was flowing
down the mountain side in two broad
■ streams. Now Naples reports smoke and
■ flflme are issuing from the volcano,
■ whose activity is increasing
K Since the destruction cf Pompeii and
Herculaneum there have been numer
’ ous other destructive eruptions, though
none quite so disastrous. Torre del
Greco, with 4.000 persons, was de-
. etroyed in 1631. In 1194 lava over
flowed 5,000 acres of rich vineyards and
cultivated laud, Torre del. Greco was
1 burned for the second time and the top
of the mountain fell in, making the
crater nearly 2 miles in circumference.
Torre del Greco was destroyed for the
third time in 1861. In 1878 lava was
spouted to the height of 300 feet.
More than 50 eruptions have been re
corded up to the present time, most of
them comparatively harmless.
What is reported as smoke coming
. from the crater is steam, more or less
t blackened by incinerated dust. When
5 this dust is in excess it accelerates the
fall of the steam, which, having become
F water by condensation. descends like a
mud torrent, flooding the ground. This
| was a feature of the eruption when
Pompeii was blotted out.
, What appears as flame shooting out
6 of the crater is the reflection of the mol
ten lava within the crater upon the
“ steam and upon the ashes suspended in
the steam accumulated above it. The
rapid condensing of vapor into water
And the conversion of this into steam
i generates electricity, which explains the
lightning effects visible on the edges of
the clouds overhanging the crater.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 13.—The
timely arrival of troops at Carrollton.
Pickens county, about daylight thwarted
tha efforts of Mnob tolyuch Bud Beard,
a negro, on trial there for assaulting a
young girl,.
The lynchers were just preparing to
'close in upon the courthouse, where the
sheriff and a dozen deputies had stood
guard over the prisoner all night, fearing
that if an attempt was made to take
him back to jail the mob would get him.
when the Warrior guards of Tusca
loosa drove up in four two-horse
wagons aud dispersed the throng.
Tne soldiers surrounded the court
; hou-e. allowing none but officers of the
i court aud others interested to puss the
i lines. Court was reconvened promptly
at 9 o’clock and the trial proceeded. By
noon it was over and Beard had been
sentenced by Judge Sprott to hang on
Dec. 10.
After the trial Beard was taken back
to jail, where a military guard was
placed, and will be held Until tne con

Several Aldermen Who Fled From Uotii
goinery Again In That City.
Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 13. —Several
of the Montgomery aldermen who refu
geed from the city have returned, and
as a quorum is now in the city an im
portant meeting of the councill will be
held on Monday night. *
The city has about *125,000 stored
away in the city banks, which was de
posited four or five months ago from
the sale of some street paving bonds,
and the mayor has been very desirous
to have a meeting of the council so that
the paving work might be commenced
and employment be thereby furnished
to many of the idle laborers who are
suffering by reason of the panic.
The distribution of this amount of
money among the laborers of the city
at this time would be an enormous ad
vantage to them and to the business
men of Montgomery as well, and it is
probable the council will at its Monday
night meeting order the improvements
to be proceeded with without delay.
New Boat Line a Certainty.
Decatur, Ala,, Nov. 13. —It seems to
be an assured fact that a light draught
boat will soon be running on the Ten
nessee river between Chattanooga and
this point. The committee appointed
by the board of trade to solicit subscrip
tions from business men, is having
success, aud now have nearly the *1,200
required to be added to *4,000 sub
scribed in Chattanooga to subsidize the
boat. The company guarantees a rate
more than one-fourth less than at pres
ent given by the railroads.
Country Editor* In Trouble.
Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 13.—The
quarantine has been causing some of
the country editors in Alabama a good
deal of trouble. They were not en
abled to replenish their supplies of
white paper—at least some of them
were not —and a good many were forced
to cue their sheets down to half size.
One of them—the Choctaw County
Herald—came to its subscribers this
week printed on manilia wrapping pa
per borrowed from a friendly grocer.
Reiicue i aud Then Drowned.
Montgomery. Ala., Nov. 13.—While
attempting to ford the Tennessee river
in Colbert county, a few days ago, a
Miss Barrett and two companions, who
lived near Tuscumbia, were thrown
from their wagon. They were washed
to an island, where, after a good many
hours, they were picked up by a negro
in a skiff. The boat capsized, however,
shortly after all had gotten into it, and
Miss Barrett was drowned. The others
landed safely.
Fever Checks Work ou a Road.
Montgomery. Ala., Nov. 13.—The

the rate of 2 miles a day.' It is stated
that trains will be running to that city
from Columbus, Miss., before the end
of the present month.

luitead of Cola.
Washington, Nov. 13>—A eanvass
which has been made of the senate in
dicates that neither Secretary Gage’s
financial plan nor any other which pro
vides for bonds payable specifically in
gold instead of coin can. secure a major
ity of that body..
Taking as a basis the record of the
senate early in 186® ou the bill author
ising the issue of coin bonds and certifi
cates of idebtedness and making esti
mates of new members, it appears that
a free coinage measure would pass the
present senate by a vote of 46 to 43.
The yeas would be made up of 25
Democrats, nine Republicans, six silver
Republicans and six silver Democrats.
The nays would show 34 Republicans
and nine Democrats. The nine Demo
crats who voted against free silver were
Oaffery, Faulkner, Gorman, Gray,
Lindsay, Mills, Mitchell, Murphy and
Smith. Os these Faulkner, Gorman,
Mills. Mitchell alid Murphy accepted
the Chicago platform. This would leave
only Oaffery, Gray, Lindsay and Smith,
Who, with the 34 Republicans, would
make -a total of only 38 senators who
are to be relied upon to vote against free
silver.
Os the 46 counted for free silver on
the basis of the vote of 1896, there were
nine Republicans, Carter, Clark, Hans
brough, Perkins, Pritchard, Shoup,
Warren, Wilson aqd Wolcott, who voted
for free coinage, and subsequently re
mained loyal to the St. Louis platform.
It is asserted that Clark, Carter, Shoup,
Warren and Wolcott would vote for sil
ver coinage again at the first oppor
tunity, while Piitchard, Perkins, Wil
son aud Hansbrough might vote with
their party. It is asserted, however,
that all nine would vote against gold
bonds without hesitation, aud with them
would be found Chandler of New Hamp
shire, aud possibly one or two others.
The preliminary canvass seems to
show for gold bonds 33 Republicans and
four Democrats, a total of 37; against
gold bonds, 30 Democrats, ten Republi
cans, six Populists and six silver Repub
licans, a total of 52. This would be a
majority of 15 against the foundation
stone of the plans of' both Secretary
Gageand the monetary commission. It
is believed that the majority would bo
even larger against the retirement of
the greenbacks.

Fannie’s Triumph.
Dainty little Fannie Grayson clapped
her' hands in ecstasy and danced and
sang as if she had been enchanted. Then
she ran to her sister Lillian and hugged
her and said:
“Oh, I’m so happy!”
“What’s happened?” Lillian asked.
“Why, didn’t you see Tom Tadding
ton when he went away just now?”
Fannie replied.
“Yes, what of him?”
‘He asked me to be his wife. Oh, Lil,
just feel how my heart flutters. ’’
Lillian Grayson was tall and wil
lowy, aud she had a good sized muscle.
Holding her sweet, tender sister off at
arm’s length, she exclaimedi .1
“ Well, I don’t see why you should
go crazy over that. You surely didn’t
accept? Remember that we come of an
old family. Our grandfather made
enough money in the logging business
to be able to retire when he was 47
years old, while Tom Taddington’s
mother had to teach school for a living
until she got married. There is a social
gulf between our families that never
can be bridged. ”
“Oh, bother your gulfs and bridges,”
cried Fannie. “I told Tom that I could
not think of being his wife, and he
started away swearing that he would
either kill himself or propose to Clara.
Coulton. Think of it! If he kills him
self for love of me, all the papers will
want my picture and print columns and
columns about it, or if he goes and mar
ries Clara see what fun it’ll be to tell
the other girls how I drove him to it-
Oh, I wish 1 were a man for about half
an hour If 1 were, I’d celebrate by go
ing out and smoking the biggest and
strongest cigar I could get hold of.”—

“1 cannot understand why it is, ” says
a physician, “that when 1 order a cold
tub bath for my patients, the tempera
ture to be at 65 or 70 degrees, they
never can understand how they are to
do it. ’1 suppose 1 shall let the water
stand overnight, says one. Bat it is
not necessary to let the water stand
overnight We are living under civi
lized conditions, and the very simple
plan of turning on the hot water faucet
for a few minutes will moderate the
water to exactly the proper temperature.
Some people do not understand taking a
cold bath anyway 1 don't wouder they
take cold. To bathe properly, when the
water is m the tub turn down the night
clothes and bathe the face and neck.
Then, stepping into the tub, kneel on
one knee aud with the sponge throw
the water first over one shoulder and
then over the other down the spine.
That causes the reaction which makes
the body warm Quickly sponge over
the rest of the body, make a few mo
tions forwhrd in the water, as if swim
ming, and then jump oat into the bed
room slippers. It need not take more
than a moment. Such a bath is very
beneficial to many thin blooded people. ”
