A Japanese Volcano Bursts
Forth With Awful Effect.

The steamer City of Sydney, Hong
Kong and Yokohoma, brings Japan
ese journals with particulars of vol
canic eruption of Bandai San Of July:
The details Of the catastrophe come
in a somew hat disjointed form. The
Ch0ga ShimblH dispatched special
reporter to the scene. According to
his account the villages around Ben
dai San heard strange rumbling
sounds and felt shocks of earthquake
from the 18th. These phenomena
continued intsrmittedly for two days
and nights, but not being attended by
any serious result, no greater Dispute
tude was felt. On the morning of the
18th, at about 5 o'clock, the smaller
Bandai San trembled and roared vio-
lently. Almost Immediately after
ward ashes begun to fall, the sky
suddenly grew dark and the rumbling
sounds continued accompanied by q
violent earthquake and flare OF daz-
zling flame. The crust of the smaller
Bandai San appeared to be lifted bod
lily upward, and then Ito fall again
with d tremendous noise; then follow
ed sho wers of red mud, mingled with
large stones. spreading havoc around.
Such, indeed, was the nature Of near
" all the matter erupted-red mud
without small stones, but accompani-
ed occasionally by heavy rocks.
Above the mud fell few inches OF
ashes.
In the five villages of Twase. Yos-
an, Wakamiya, Misato and Hisara,
the greater part of the houses were
buried to depth of from to go feet.
The state of the bodies recovered Is
terrible. Some are literally cpt to-
pieces, others are parboiled so that
it is scarcely possible to distinguish
between men and women, A few
corpses were found suspended in the
branches of trees which caught them
as they fell. Up to the 18th the
number Of bodies recovered was 4T6.
1t is believed that Gl are still entomb-
cd. The wounded number Al. Eigh-
ty-seveu houses have been destroyed.

Reaut Lake, dated last Friday said. -
At o'clock this afternoon Charles
Lacey, q private in Company Z. Of
Tue Fourteenth Regiment, was shot
an1 Instantly killed while act
ing as marker in & pit at the rifle
range,
Several Of the regiments had men
out in the field qualifying them for
mackmen's rating. Among them
We're the Sixteenth. Their own pit
was engaged when they arrived ii
tie field aud they took the 200,yari
range OF the Fifth Regiment Lacey
was sent into the pit. which was too
shallow to admit oi his standing
straight Two or three shots were
fired and no marker was put up. One
of the men whistled for Lacey. but
be did not appear. The detail ran
over to the pit in alarm and to their
horror found Lacy lying there dead
with d bullet wound through his
head.
He had evidently been standing
with his face toward the target, a
the ball entered On the left side OF
the neck, passed through the carotid
artery and came out Of the mouth.
The bleeding was profuse and death
was instantaneous. Lieut.. Foster,
Assistant Surgeon, was Immediately
notified, and he with Maj McCald-
less rode out to the range, one quar-
ter of mile from camp, but too late
to be OF service. The body was then
placed On a stretcher and in solemn
procession borne across the field to
the Eourteenth's quarters
Lieut. Brown, Inspector Of Rife
Practice, feels the accident very keen
ly, as it happened to one Of his men;
but he is free from blame, as the men
were not using their own range. The
pits which Lieut.. Brown had dug
were Of sufficient depth to cover g
man entirely when standing erect,
while that Of the Fifth was shall
low.
Coroner L II. lIannen, Of Craw-
ford county, held an inquest at /
o'clock The verdict was accidental
death. Lacy was 2 years Of az and
had enlisted in Company c. about
six weeks ago His residence is at
Beach Cliff, near Mansfield, Pa,
where his remains will be taken to-
morrow when the regiment arrives
homo. lie was single, a coal miner
by trade, and lived with his father,
1t is not certain who fired the fatal
shot, as several men had tried their
skill before it was discovered that
Lacy had been killed.
