furnished apartments in a sedan

walked the entire length of the hall tothe

was likewise robed. A body of troops (the

and two prices apart, from the entrance to
the dive lining both sides to keep a pees
age clear through whish the procession
slowly peeled, the service being conduoted in
Latin. The immense organ then pealed

more fortunate, getting up to the cap of
the grater and looking in. We could not,
as I 'expected, see the boiling lade, the
smoke and sulphurone gas biding the boil-
ing mass, blit the roaring within was awe-
inspiring. I cannot compare it to anything
but a dozen nail and boiler factories all at
work , .in the small spade within. The
mouthof Vesuvius is not more than 100
feet in diameter. We walked all around it,

'After passing three very pleasant weeke'
at Castle le Mare and neighborhood, we
went to Sarrento, ten miles distant. One
of the most beautiful drives I ever had the
pleasure of taking was along the shore of

never to be forgotten.
At Sorrento, we hired a row boat with
four men rowing to the Isle of Capri (a
three hour row) and visited the celebrated
blue grotto. It was a most charming eight.
The only opening to the grotto is through
an entrance three feet high, and about six
feet wide, from the sea. In rough weather
it cannot, be entered. Fortunately, this
day the sea was calm. When ineide, the
prospeot is grand, the 'water being of the
most beautiiul blue possible to imagine, the
only light admitted being through the
small opening. Leaving our large boat
outside, we entered small ones. The grotto

Giving a boy a lies'(20 cents) he palled off
his few clothes and jumped in ; when
under water he appeared as if 'silver

Capri on the island, took carriages and
drove over the island, 'visiting the ruins of.
a castle built and occupied as a summer
residence by Tiberius, nearly 1,900 years
ago. Returning to • Sorrento we -spent
about a week there, enjoying the beautiful
scenery of the surrounding country. We
then took a -trip to" -the north -eide of the,
bay, going through Naples, and visited
Pozzonli, and there among other iitteres`t
ing eights entered the crater of an extinct

lava. The entrance of the Bay of Naples
is between the islands of Capri on the
north and Ishica on : the aonth ; Pozzotili
is on the • mainland near the Island of
Iehica. I forgot to mention that we made
four visite to the unearthed city of
Pompeii, and took the greatest interest in
walking the deserted etreete and roofless
houses of that ono() beautiful and busy
city. We also visited the catacombs. in
