SCIENTISTS INTO
PIT Os
Perils of Volcano Braved for
the First Time by Pair of
Explorers.
_ i
i
MILAN. ITALY. June 7 Professor j
Mallada. of the royal observatory on.
Mount Vesuvius, accomplished an ex
traordinary feat, descending: into the
depths of the crater of that volcano.
Since the awful eruption six years ago
numberless attempts have been made
by scientific adventurers to penetrate
the funnel of Vesuvius, hut all in Vain,
owing partly to the precipitous nature
of the slope's interior, but principally
because of the dense and deadly vapors
of sulphur and chloric acid gases.
The actual diameter of the crstter is
ebout 550 yards. Professor Mallada.
accompanied by an able young expert
named Varvazze, attached to the ob
servatory. started out at 8 o'clock In
the morning toward the. Pompeii side,
taking a quantity of scientific instru
ments, cameras and a couple of stout
ropes, one 350 feet and the other 500
feet in length. Using the long rope for
the first part of the descent, they were
lowered inside the volcano to a depth
of 380 feet till they landed upon huge
jutting crags of lava overhanging an
other great abyss 150 feet lower down.
After exploring on thik perilous slope
r>f 90 degrees amid gigantic masses of
■■petrified lava, they found a means to
fix their second rope, whereby they
tvere able to reach an gnormous tlsgurji
created some years ago. when the vol
rano was suddenly torn asunder, pier
cipftating an Immense mass of the out
er cone into the crater, and causing the
(partial wreckage of Messrs. Cook's
(funicular station.
The Intrepid explorers discovered that
this huge fissure extends Io the very
of the crater, which they finally
roarhed at a depth of 1,000 feet. There
Mhey remained a couple of hours Pro
cessor Mallada was able to take a
■number of instantaneous pictures ‘ of
•avalanches and showers of red-hot
gtshes. which were taking place at the
Mime in contiguous parts of the crater
liespite the precautions taken, the ex
plorers at times were almost overcome
by suffocating fumes. They found the
temperature varying from 90 degrees
to 98 degrees Fahrenheit.
A valuable collection of minerals was
made, consisting of volcanic mattei
falling off from the side walls of the
funnel, which, on striking the bottom,
raised clouds of tine choking cinder
dust. The explorers planted a red flag
in the center of the crater floor as a
memorial of their conquest
The whole expedition lasted nearly
nine hours.
The highest point of woman’s hap
piness is reached only through moth
erhood, in the clasping of her child
within her arms. Yet the mother-to
be is often fearful of nature's ordeal
and shrinks from the suffering inci
dent to its consummation. But for
nature's ills and discomforts nature
provides remedies, and In Mother's
Friend is to be found medicine of
great value to every expectant mother.
It is an emulsion for external
application, composed of ingredients
which act with beneficial and sooth
in's effect on those portions of the
system involved. It is intended to
prepare the system for the crisis, and
thus relieve, in great part, the suffer-
Irfg through which the mother usually
passes. The regular use of Mother’s
Friend will repay any mother in the
comfort it affords before, and the help
fui restoration to health and strength
if brings about after baby comes.

ROUND-TABLE CLUB,
WISDOM SYNDICATE,
AGAIN IS HOMELESS
With the passing of the Etowah case.
In Alabama street, Atlanta's Round Ta
ble club once more finds itself home
less and a wanderer upon the face of
an unappreciative and barbaric earth.
Time was w hen the Etowah case was
[ Atlanta's foremost resort, of Intellectu
jality and fashion. The time never was
i when it was not an Interesting and
.engaging place to satisfy ones gusta
tory (iesires. and to occasionally grati
fy mental yearnings not to be de
scribed in ordinary words.
Colonel Hooper Alexander, the head
of the Round Table, who revels In the
glorious title, "king of the world," was
so full of grief and darkly depressing
sorrow today that he would not dis
cuss at length the habitatless state of
the Round Table
"Just say for me." proposed hf« ma
jesty, "that the Round 'I able shall not
wander long A new home shall lie
found for It within the present moon
We. rex. have spoken!"
An Ancient Institution.
Claude Smith, who was not In so
tearful a mood as the king of the world
o. k.’d "We, rex’s" ukase, and that
makes it al! right.
The Round Table will hold another
session soon, and things will go on
just as of yore.
The Round Table Is an ancient and
honorable Atlanta Institution. It was
, organized about ten years ago., in a
, north side restaurant of modest preten
tions, and there it got along pretty
1 well until Harry Silverman opened his
gorgeous Etowah case. It had got to
be some organization then, and so it
. took on a lot of frills and things, and
’ began to hold Its meetings In Silver
man's place.
Harry Silverman was just the boy
• who was looking for that Round Table
■ thing Under his astute chaperonage.
it grew In grace and membership, and
L soon it became famous among the
I highbrows of this vicinity and nelgh
» borhood.

1 and so on.
It meets — when It has a meeting
r plate— at lunch time, anywhere from I

' of any old problem hankering for ad-I

and international politics to the pros
and eons of an aldermanlc squabble.

Whatever settlements the Round Ta
ble makes, they are the Round Table's
I business -don't forget that, if you ex
pect to sit at the Round Table a second
. time.
When Harry Silverman gave up the
Etowah case, one dismal and depressing
day, the club forsook the big table Har
ry always reserved for its exclusive
' use. and passed through a perilous and
■ heartbreaking period of Its career.

’ eventually it strayed back to the Eto-

"Ono needs but shut his eyes," said
Claude Smith, discussing the Round Ta
ble today, “and ponder seriously a mo
ment or so the syndicated, amalgamat

that outfit, in order to realize a meas
ure of the conclusiveness to which

CHILDREN IM ALPS
‘SOLD’ US SLAVES
Youngsters Go to Highest
Bidder to Work Seventeen to
Eighteen Hours a Day.
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND. June 7.1
Swiss and German writers are calling I
the attention of the public and the au
thorities to what is practically a slave'
market where girls and boys between
the ages of eleven and fifteen years are
"sold" in public to the highest bidders,
at Friedrichshafen, a German town on
Lake Constance.
These Children, numbering 200 or
more, are brought about this time of
the year by their parents, who are poor
and live mostly in the Austrian Tyro!
and on the Swiss frontier. Swiss and
German farmers examine the "good?"
and choose the strongest and healthiest
children to work for them throughout
the summer. .
The prices are arranged between the
farmers and the parents, and a contract
Is signed. The farmer agrees to give
food and lodging to the boy or girl he
engages and $5 to $lO after five to six
months’ work, which is for seventeen to
eighteen hours a day. The farmer does
riot usually accept any responsibility
concerning the moral conduct of the
boy nr girl who has "entered” his serv
ice. and w hom he treats as a farm hand
and on the same footing as his other
employee s.
This exploitation of children Is per
mitted by the German authorities at
Friedrichshafen, probably on the
grounds that it is an ancient custom.
The town itself is en fete during the
markets, and there are processions of
the children, who seem happy: but
their appearance is far different after
five or six months' hard work of seven
teen to eighteen hours a day on the Al
pine farms in Switzerland and Ger
