The Island of Great Sangir Destroyed
By Volcanic Eruption---The Disaster
Occurred JuneIS.

by a Volcanic Eruption---The Disaster
Occurred June
The island of Great Sangir in the Malay
archipelago has been destroyed by q vol
canic eruption, and the whole popula-
ton, comprising $4,000 souls, persisted,
according to the captain of a Dutch
steamer, which left the island June H.
A few hours after the steamer departed,
the sound of a terrible explosion was heard
in the direction of the Sangir group, and
this was followed shortly afterward by
showers of ashes, which covered the deck
of the steamer and darkened the whole at
mosphere. When the clouds had cleared
away nothing was visible on the horizon
but masses of vapor that extended for
many miles. Great Sangir, which, previous
to the explosion was in full sight, could
not be seen. Six sealing vessels were an
chored off the island and it is thought they
must have been destroyed. The captain
of the Catterthun also states that the island
of Luzon, the largest of the Philippine
group, has recently suffered severely from
eruptions, the fire from which caused wide
spread devastation.
Great Sangir island had an area of 273
square miles. The population was about
1900. In the northwest part of the
island was volcano called Abu, or the
! cash Mountain" which had frequently
caused great devastation. In March, 1856,
the streams of lava and boiling water
thrown out by the volcano carried away
the rich plantations and destroyed 2S06
lives There is also volcano in Sjiauw
island which has population of 5000
Tagolandang is the centreiof the missionary
work which has been carried on in the
Sangr group. A small ship belongs to
the station at this island, in which the
missionaries visit the scattered islands
In Great Sangir there were four kingdoms
governed by rajahs, The whole group be-
longs to Holland, which supported eight
teachers in them. The villages supported
| IL teachers. There were ~ churches in
the islands.

Setting Type at the Telephone.
From Elect,1cftv

The management of the London Times
has utilized the telephone in a unique way.
Telephone wires have been laid in the under
ground railway tunnel between the cornpos-
ing room in Printing House square and the
parliamentary reporters gallery in the
House Of Commons. A COPY reader placed
at toe telephone reads the stenographic
turns" from the note book as fast as 1t is
possible for the competitors to take them on
their typesetting machines In the Times
building, q mile and a half away. AT
first the reporters did not take kindly to the
invention, but when they found that they
could dictate their notes direct to the COM
posing room without the trouble of trans
scrlbing them they began TO look at the ar
rangement in an entirely different light.
Proofs, OF course, are sent to them for cor
rectlon. Each machine can produce from
i've to six columns OF solid minion a night.
Errors will sometimes creep in, but there is
no doubt that the practice will become
permanent one. Its great advantage be-
comes apparent when the fact is considered
that the Times is able, by adopting 1t, to
print in time for the a. N. newspaper
trains going to all points of the United
Kingdom the whole of the debates, which
are often continued until after a. M.
