Bt B R T S CIVIC IMPROVEMENT. Nineteen hundred and fourteen ought to see a great extension of the city planning movemtat l'or small as well as large places. have recently been seeing how the shrewd and economical Frenchman manages through planning to get double or quad- ruple value out of a bridge, a public building, a ‘monument or any other structure on public property. We in_the United States ought to stop our silly and extravagant habit of placing roundings, approach, other structures. In 1914 there may well be ex- tended study of the relation of parks and playgrounds to com- munity life and efficiency and the consequent extension what is certainly a munlclpal function—that of competing with the forces of disorder and ill health by the provision of means for producing - order and good health. ‘We might to advantage in 1914 begin to consider the desirabillty of* good form and plensing ap- pearance in various- street_ fur- ~nishings. We have gone’ far - in: good lighting standards and in putting off the streets the furefits of dead trees that supported en: cumbering electric wires.

Catania, May 11.—/n earthquake and volcanic eruption, f..lowed by fire, destroyed many villages on the slopes of Mount Etna. The disaster caused the- death of at least 135 persons. Fifty persons are known to have been killed in the village of Linera, which was destroyed. ruins of Passapomo, Bongiardo and Malati twenty bodies were found. The number of injured will reach 300. Refugees declare the property lose is as great as in the Messina dis- aster of 1908. Railroad - tracks were churches - razed, houses shaken to ruins, and telegraph poles overturned over a radius of several miles around Catania. Terror stricken people rushed from the villages into Catania betore day- break, bringing stories of ruin and disaster. The army, the navy and the civilian authorities received or- ders from Rome to give help. The aid of the Red Cross quickly was enm- listed. Villages Are Heaps of Ruins. The villages of Linera and Consen- tini were transformed into heaps of ruins. At Zefferana every house was de- stroyed. Enormous damage Wwas caused at Santa Vernerina. Roofs fell in and walls collapsed in the hamlets of Santa Maria Ammal- ati, Caricoo, Guardia, Mangano, Santa Tecla and Bongiardo. The village of Santa Maria Vergine Catena was razed to the ground. The police in the district are aiding in the ‘endeavor to-rescue those still alive beneath the ruins and to extri- cate the dead from the debris. All available nurses were mobilized and are assisting in gathering the homeless and the children who have lost their parents. Temporary shelter is being provided here for the reflx» gees. Along the principal highways in the stricken district the scene of desola- tion was heartrending. Groups of refugees frequently were encoun- tered. Many of these were burd- éned with improvised litters made of which they were carrying injured and dying relatives to'the temperary sur- gical stations. In the néighborhood jured was very great. The authorities have commandeered all avallable automobiles to assist in the work of rescue.

HAD BEEN ILL LONG TIN Amassed Fortune in Manufacture of Breakfast Foods and Gained Much Organized Labor. Santa Barbara, Cal, Charles W. Post, the millionaire breakfast food manufacturer of Battle Creek, Mich., shot and killed himself here. i Mr. Post was stricken ill here sud- Rochester, Minn., aboard a special train-for an operation. He returped here only recently, apparently recov- ered from an attack of appendicitis which was believed to threaten his life. The operation, which was per- formed March 10, was considered suc- cessful and he departed for his West- ern home seemingly cured. . The illness from which Mr. Post suffered was first manifest last De- cember. At first it was considered a recurrence of a stomach trouble from which hé formerly suffered. Battle Creek, Mich;, May 11— Charles W. Post was one of the founders of ‘the so called health food industry. His business interests here for the ‘manufacturing of breakfast foods. represented millions of dollars. Although Mr. Post’s office address was’ dence in Washington, D. C., for sev- eral years. Lost Health in 1884. = Mr. Post was born in Springfield, I, in 1854. He engaged in the hardware and other lines of business there until 1884, when his health broke< down. He traveled extensively in search of treatment for some time and arrived here in 1891. His search for health was responsible, it is said, for his investigation into the health food subject. Employing thousands of workmen, Mr. Post took an active part in local civic affairs. In 1908 he was made president of the National Citizens’ In—l dustrial association of America and for several years he attracted wide attention because of his attacks against: labor unions. He was an ardent supporter of the “open shop.” : Mr. Post traveled abroad a large | part of the time during recent years and his art collection in this city is regarded as one of the most valu- able in the country. The news of his death was a great shock to his friends and relatives here, who thought he had practically recovered from his re- cent illness.
