H.t C. W. M TASK I LI,. 1'nstor of Iho Methodist ehnrrh at IlHstlnRs, Nell., mill former pastor of llmisenm Park Mellimllsl rhurrh In Oma ha, who Is touring Kurope with his wife. This Is one of a series of articles he has written for The Omaha Bee. The good book tells us that “in the midst of life we are in death.” Of .no city and Its surroundings could tills l>e said with more of literal truth than of Naples. It is a great city of more than 600,000 population, with scores of smaller towns and vil lages all about, all of them literally built over the fires of the nether world, and with the possibility any day of being the victims of a great earthquake or a mighty volcanic up heaval that would blot them out for ever. Possibly no city of Kurope aside from Constantinople is so beautifully located as is Naples. On the north shore of the bay its feet aro lapped by the blue waters of the Mediterran ean. Its buildings reaching hack to the crest of the hills, the city rises from the hay like a great ampitheater and forms a panorama whose exquis ite setting cannot be excelled by any other city. To the east rises Vesu vius, solitary and awful in its gran deur, almost close enough, it seems, to reach out your hand and touch, its base clothed in verdure of beauti ful green, its" summit mantled with snow gleaming like polished silver, Its crater throwing out volumes of white smoke and vapor which hang over the mountain top like billowy clouds of the evening time Surrounded by Villages. Around the circle of the bay may be seen village after village—Massa, Kebastino, Pnllena. Treochia. Resfna, Torre del C.reco, Bagnolt and Pozziola, the place where Paul landed. By dav these towns with their stone walls, their high towers, their domes anl spires, glisten in the sunlight. At night they make a circle of sparkling lights, doubled by their reflection in the sea. In {he distance is tho promontory of Sorrento, with its Cape Campa nella dipping its beak into the blue water. The picturesque island of Capri rises like a sentinel keeping guard over the mouth of the bay, while just beyond is the hill of Posi lipo, completing the mag.c circle. This whole region is volcanic. Hills all around Naples are the reman s of craters, as shown by their cone forma tion and by the lava rock and ashes that are everywhere. The houses are built of lava rock, the streets arc paved with lava, the mortar is made front Volcanic sand and ground pum ice stone. Kven the houses of ancient Herculaneum and Pompeii were built of lava rock and the streets paved with lava. Hot springs and mineral springs abound. See Boiling Water. Two days ago we went to Pozzlola, the ancient Puteoli, to see, what we could find of the old harbor where Paul landed when he came to Home. After finding this we walked up to the crater of Solfatara. 'This is the one that in 1198 erupted and bubied the entire city of Puteoli. Since then It has been more or less inactive. However, it again is beginning to show signs of greater activity. Secur ing our guide, we started out across the floor of the old crater. It is a level space probably 600 yards in dia ! meter, most of it covered with a thin icoating of light colored clay or ash. We had not gone far until the guide : led us to a small hole about four or • five feet In diameter, down in which 1 we could both hear and see water boiling. A little further on were large • pools of boiling water on the surface. All about us were crevices where sul jphur fumes and vapor were escaping. We were able to get within a few ! feet of the opening, and could see the •boiling lava, black as pitch. However, as we saw the fumes rising ali about j us and felt the hot sand under our 'feet, we did not care to tarry long, t urtous Phenomenon. An experiment by the guide showed a very curious phenomenon. N*ar a 'large opening where vapor was pour ing out he lighted some torches and passed them over the surface of the ground. Almost Instantly, in a hun dred places all aliout us, vapor ap peared. And even more strangely, the volume of vapor coming from little fissures all about the volcano'* crater, some of them over a quarter of a mile distant, was instantly doubled or quadrupled. At one placo a stamp of the foot sounded like striking a hollow bar rel. showing that we were working on a very thin crust winch pro!,ably was some distance above the raging tires b-eneath. In on* small opening instead of boiling lava, hot sulphur fumes were forcing their wav up through a mound of sand making It roll and boil like water. For years it has been not*d that whenever Vesuvius is very active, this volcano Is very dormant, and when ihm i* quite active. Vesuvius is comparatively quiet. This shows that Iheso two volcanoes are but different vents for the one great mass of in ternal fire that reaches clear under Naples and this whole region from Vesuvius to Solfatara, and possibly much beyond. Scale Vesuvius. S’eeterday wo went to the top of Vesuvius. The first part of the ascent was made by street car, the latter by a cable incline. These land ed us wilhln a few hundred feet of the rim of the crater. Guides ac companied us as wc followed the long snowy path to the top. Here most of the party stopped and viewed the crater from a distance. But a young man from Indiana and myself, with our guides, ventured down a few hundred feet inside the old crater walls, trying to get near enough to take some photographs of the newly forming crater and the streams of red hot lava that were flowing across the thin surface of the old crater. The rumble and roar of the boil ing lava could be heard for a great distance. The pew crater is a lava cone about 225 feet high.' It is a little to one side of the center of the floor of the old crater, which is a level area of cooled lava covering many acres, and forming a crust over the boiling lava beneath. From the open ing at the top of the cons we could see pieces of lava and rock constant ly being thrown up into the air, some j of them black, some red hot and some almost white hot. Some of the stones must have been thrown 50 or 100 feet. Some fell back into the • rater to be hurled out again by the pentup fires and gasses within, some ■ fell out on the sides and helped to build up the new cone. P Gruesome Scene. Near the foot ot this cone was a i rack or opening out of which flow ed great streams of burning lava The floor of the old crater shows that it was once boiling lava. It Is covered now with sulphur and other mineral substances which give it a greenish yellow cast. Across tis floor great wriggling streams of boiling, seeth ing red and white h"t lava slowly' flowed, until they looked like the out stretched arms of a huge octopus. To add to its gruesomeness, one could see from the sides of these longer streams little arms of the lava slow ly wriggling out in every direction. ^ outli Disappear After Renting: Two Saddle Horses James Pepper, proprietor of a feed barn at 2215 Izard street, rented two horses to two buys, about 14, at 11 Fridav morn.r.g.
