kILA1sA's FIERY FOUNTAINS
A Grand Display In the Crater OF the Prin-
eipal Hawaiian Volcano.

A Grand Display In the Crater OF the Prin-
etpal Hawaiian Volcano.
BY the arrival Of the Klnav this morning
the news has been recsived OF the overflow
Of the volcano of Kilauea. The following
details are obtained from Philip Peck, the
Hotel street importer, who visited the vol
cano on Friday last In company with Super
intendent OF Public Works w. e. Rowell;
The volcano has been constantly increas-
ing In activity for week past and was par
ticnlarly lively on Thursday evening, when
as many as Is magnificent fountains of Are
were sent up at one time from the bubbling
and seething mass. These fiery columns
were so high as to be seen from the veranda
at the Volcano House. two miles distant.
The sight from that place on Thursday
night was indescribably grand, and is said
never to have been equaled In former years.
On Friday evening, when Messrs. Peck
and Rowell made their visit, the fountains
were still playing but were not 30 high or
large as on the previous night Both gen
tlemen went to the very edge of the burn
ing lake, which at that time WAS more
than full, the molten lava in the center
being fully two feet higher than at the
edges. Mr.. Peck described the immense
lake as being in a similar state to glass OF
water which is more than full and yet does
not overflow. At times the burning mass
would sloI 9NTer in places and flow into the
main pit 10 or IS feet below, but new
crust would coon form and the flow stop.
Mr. Rowell had narrow escape from one
of these sudden overfows. Both gentlemen
speak of the scene as most magnificent and
indescribable in its grandeur.
On Saturday night the volcano was In
the same condition as on the previous one
but lava commenced to overflow in n steady
stream. On Sunday about p. IN. the en-
tire walls fell In, and the lake itself has
spread out to the full extent of the pit and
now forms a molten mass about one-hal
by one-third of a mile in extent. After tn,
breakdown the lava was very active, thu
fountains and columns being more violen
than ever. The view from the hotel wa
then marvellous.
From another source it is learned that
sharp shock OF earthquake was felt at TIL
volcano on Sunday night and more or les
throughout the entire island, although a
Hiloi it was scarcely perceptible.-

Rev. Il. j.. Hubbard delivered a high-
ly interesting lecture before the
Young Mems Christian Association on
Sunday afternoon, In his introduce
