4 SCIENTISTS INTO PIT OF VESUVIUS Perils of Volcano Braved for the First Time by Pair of Explorers. MILAN, ITALY. Jun- 7—Professor Meilada. of the rural observatory on Mount Vesuvius. ao omplishrd an raordtnary feat. descending into the lepths of the crater of that volcano. ■Hnce t/>e awful eruption aix yearn ago lUmhZrless attempts have been made ,y ./cientifle adventurers to penetrate b*' funnel of Vesuvius, hut all in vain, /wing partlj to the precipitous nature / >f the slope's interior, hut principally / recause of the dense and deadly vapors >f sulphur and chloric acid gases The actual diameter of the crater is tbout 550 yards. Professor .Mailed.i. iccompanted by an able young expert lamed Varvazze, attached to the ob servatory. started out at X o'clock In he morning toward the Pompeii side. ;aktng a quantity of scientific Instru ments, cameras and a epuph of stout ropes one 350 feet and the other 500 ""'ey: tn length, i'sing th" long rope for he first part of the descent, they were f'" owered Inside the volcano to a depth if 380 feet till they landed upon hug" jutting crags of lava overhanging an other great abyss 150 feet lower down. After exploring on this perilous slope »f 90 degrees amid gigantic masses of petrified lava, they found a means to fix their second rope, whereby they were able to reach an enormous fissure Treated some years ago, when the vol cano was suddenly torn asunder pre cipitating 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 to the very bottom of the crater, which they finally •cached at a depth of 1.000 feet. There hey remained a couple of hours. Pro fessor Mallada was able to take a number of instantaneous pictures of ivalanches and showers of red-hot ashes, which were taking place at th time in contiguous parts of the crater Despite the precautions taken, the ex plorers at times were almost overcome bv suffocating fumes. They found the temperature varying from 90 degrees to 98 degrees Fahrenheit. A valuable collection of minerals was made, consisting of volcanic matter falling off from the side walls of the * funnel, which, on striking the bottom, raised clouds of fine choking cinder dust. The explorers planted a red flag in the center of the crater floor as a memorial of their conquest. Th- whole expedition lasted nearly nine hours. ) Th° highest point of woman's hap ( pln*»Sß 1b rpaehed only through moth ' erhood, in the clasping of her child within her arms.

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 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 hoy who was looking for that Round Table thing I'nder bls astute chaperonage. It grew In grace and membership, and soon It became famous among the highbrows of this vicinity and neigh borhood. Bunch of Good Fellows. The Round Table duh Is a bunch of good fellows, long on argumentative proclivities, and of various shades of thought and opinion political, religious, professional, ordinary, and so forth and so on It meets when It has a meeting place—at lunch time, anywhere from 1 to 3. and It undertakes the adjustment of any old problem hankering for ad justment, all the way from white houss and international polities to lhe pros and eons of an aldermanic squabble.

Finds Old Home Intact. For a while It looked as if Harry had stabbed It to the heart, and put it hors de combat, so to speak. But it ililied, and, after operating here and there eventually it strayed back to the Eto wah, and the new management brought forth the old table, brushed the dust off, set it aside sacredly and exclu sively for the use of the club, and there It has met, and calked, and scrap ped, and yapped, and had its being, until the Etowah closed its doors the other day.

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND. June 7. Swiss and German writers are calling 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 ate “sold" in public to the highest bidders, at Friedrichshafen, a German town on Lake Constance. These children, numbering 2<>o or more, are brought about this time of the year by their parents, who are poor and live mostly in the Austrian Tyrol and on the Swiss frontier. Swiss and German farmers examine lhe "goods" 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 not usually accept any responsibility concerning the moral conduct of the boy or girl who has "entered” his serv ice, and whom he treats as a farm hand and on the same footing as his other employees. This exploitation of childrent 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 iheir appearance Is fai 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 many.
