Kilauea, the great active volcano on the island of Hawaii, has for weeks past been unusually active, the lava column in the central fire pit having risen above the level of the floor of the main crater, sending streams of molten lava in all directions. One stream ran more than three miles in four days, forming a new lake of fire against the northern wall of the main prater. All previous records for rise of the lava column and length and duration of overflow have been broken. Lava Falls. On June 5, 1916, following an outbreak of lava from the neighboring treat semi-active volcano of Mauna Loa, the lava column of Kilauea fell to a depth of almost 1000 feet below the rim of the central fire pit.

To the ancient Hawalians, Kilauea was the home of Pele, Goddess of Fire, and many of trona natives still retard the volcano superstitious awe. To Madame Pele these natives attribute the recent destruction of a small portable wooden building, erected on the rim of the fire pit for the axe of scientists connected with the observatory, The sudden outbreak of a lava flow made the removal of the bullding necessary and it was shifted three times to escape the molten streams. finally being anchored with chains to U.S.

Leaping flames at midnight disclosed to astonished observers the fact that Pele had attained her goal, for there was a suden upheaval of lava from under the dome upon which the building had been placed and 8. torrent of molten rock was hurled through its roof, destroying the entire structure in less than three minutes. There has been no further sign of activity at this particular point since the building disappeared, and visitors now sit in safety upon the glistening surface of the resealed lava dome.

But we delayed the affair until morning and by then they were tired out waiting, so the boys went over after, them and brought back 300 prisoners."
