EARTHouAKEs-Thc craters of volcanoes act
safety valves; where there is saletyvalvc there
must be earthquake. Sixty-one earthquakes
have occurred on the coast of Chill. An earthquake
at Lisbon capital of Portugal in 1855. shook all the
seas Of Europe, the North Of Africa, and the West
Indies, and even Lake Ontario 1t lasted only
six seconds, but in that time it destroyed onequar-
ter of the dwellings houses, all the public buildings,
and 80 900 inhabitants of Lisbon. During an earth
quake ar Lima, the officer of ship says that the
ship was violently tossed the surface of the water
boiled, and was covered with dead fishes. In l196.
,hreequarers of the city of Lima and 10000 OF its
inhabitants were destroyed by an earthquake.

Of Aleppo in few seconds. together with 10000
persons

the countries along the Eastern extremity OF the
Mediterranean. The towns OF Damascus Acre,
Tyre aud Sidon suffered great damage and Tiberias

On the Doth September, l7l7, the town OF Qua
temala greatly damaged by earthquake, and
entirely destroyed by another on the Goth June, 1913

1900 OF its inhabitants iii 1872
During an earthquake, in 1877. Quito was greatly
damaged and Redbamba levellcd to the ground,
and 400 900 persons were buried in the ruins.
The town of Lima has always been very subject
earthquakes. Besides the earthquake already men,
toned, II was almost entirely destroyed on Goth Oct
1867. and again on the 2Slh October, 1916 During
the no &c Caliao inundated by the
sea- and every soul persisted. Conception, in Chill.
was destroyed in 1890, 1851, and 1888, by earth
qaakes aud inundatons
Islands have been formed by the force Of volcanic
action and it is curious fact that earthquakes ire
