Notwithstanding reports to the con
trary, the volcano is showing more
activity than it has since 1895. The
report sent out by Peter Lee last week
and brought down by the Kinau, was
not without foundation in fact. as
since stated. but merely exaggerated
When Capt. Lee telegraphed to Purser
Beckley at Mauhukona that the crater
was active, he could plainly see an
eruption from the lanai of the Volcano
House. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilder. and Mr..
and Mrs. Hardy of Hilo, who were in
the crater at the time. saw a large
fountain playing. and, although they
have all seen Madam Pele at her best,
they assert that the display was one
of the grandest they had ever witness
ed in the crater. 1t was on the
strength of their report to Capt. Lee
that the startling telephone message
was sent to intercept the Kinau at
Mahukonn.
\ number of tourists returned from
the Volcano by the Kinau yesterday.
and all confirm the report that there
is considerable activity in the old era
ter Last Thursday evening the sky
over the crater was aglow with light
for half an hour, and a party of tour
lists who went into the crater on Fri
day evening could see the intermittent
glow of fountain on the north side
of the steep crater. The smoke was
so thick that it was impossible to see
