A MEXICAN STORY.
A Mountain Expipdes and Sends Out
Flood of Hot Water,

CRY OF MEXICO, October 1O.-Vicente
Ioaiza. an agent of sewing machine
company, says that he had occasion TO visit
a town twenty-five leagues south Of To
luca, and last Monday a small mountain,
about half way between the towns of Ten
ancingo and Tecusloya, suddenly exploded,
with most terrific report, and immedi-
atelv an immense volume Of water com
menced to flow from the newly formed
crater and inundated much Of the sur
rounding country
The Indians feoto the hills, the church
bells in the surrounding villages were
rung violently, and general panic ensued;
The water soon found it's level, and poured
through a gorge 10 feet deep and contlnu-
ed to flow until the next day, when Loaiza
left. The inhabittnts were so frightened
that they would ntt approach the stream.
Loaza did not take the temperature OF
the water but supposes it was hot, as ne
cow the vanor rising from il on warm
day. The Volumeof water was so great
that 1t carried away two high bridges
which crosses theravine far above high
water mark The crater formed by the
evnIosion was ouile large, and rocks and
eaItb were scatte,ed far wide. Loaiza is
regarded as thopugly reliable man.

The Corpse Leaves London In Route
to its Last Resting Plaza

LONDON, October 10.-An enormous con-
course of people surrounded Walsingham
Terrace this morning, when the casket con-
tanning the remains Of the late Charles
Stewart Parnell was taken from the
house. Slowly and sadly was the body
placed in an open hearse drawn by four
horses, and at 1915 O'Clock p. M, the cor
tege started for the railroad station amid q
terrific downpour Of rain. Immediately
following the hearse, in mourning coaches
was the committee of Mr.. ParnelPs col
leagues in Parliament who had been Sc
lected to accompany the body to Holyhead.
The route to the station was lined with
masses of people who silently and respect
fully watched the passage OF the funeral
procession. Mrs. Parnell IS utterly unaDle
TO accompany tne remains 10 Dublin. She
is too ill TO undertake the journey.
There was q terrible scene inside the
house when the casket was about TO be re-
moved. The grief of Mrs. Parnel was
most poignant, and she could with dini-
Guilty be persuaded to allow the coffin TO be
taken. AS mark of respect TO the deac,
the blinds in many houses along the route
followed by the funeral procession on lts
way 10 the station were drawn down, and
on every side were signs Of sincere sym
nathv. The casket was covered with
magnificent wreaths of flowers, one OF
which. in the center of all, was from his
wife. AS the hearse passed them, despite
the downpouring rain, the spectators tooh
off their hats and stood uncovered until the
last carriage had gone by.
dozen carriages followed the hearse
from Walsingham Terrace to the station;
At the railroad station at Brighton the
funeral party waited an hour, the building
being packed with peoplepressing forward,
to get glimpse of the casket.
1t was 45 p m. before the remains were
placed or board the train which then started
! for Willesden Junction.
When the train containing the body OF
Mr.. Parnell arrived at Willesdon great
crown rushed toward the carriage in which
the remains were deposited AS the doors
were opened, every one reverently barred
the head and stood with silent expectancy,
apparently waiting for some leading Par
nellite to speak.
! 1t was found, hewever, that time would
not permit of any ceremony. IL had oeen
planned that when the coffin should
| be be temporarily removed from the
| car. some distinguished member oil
! heleague was TO deliver an address. rms
| could not be done on account or short time.
! The coffin was uncovered in the case and
people were formed in line. Many were
| observed to be moved to tears.
| Mrs. Parnelrs wreath was visible at the
head of the casket when the funeral train
reached Willesden Junction. IL bore IN
! letters beautifully and artissically formed
of flowers the words: ITO My own Irue
Love, My Husband, My King"
