Siberia lives in the popular mind as
barren and desolate region. yet 1t is
rich in possibilities Coal and iron and
the more precious metals are found
there in abundance The short summer
is long enough to admit of good wheat
yield.
To develop this portion of its great
domain is one of the motives that spur
Russia to the most gigantic railroad
feat of this century
Nor does she mean that the new road
shall ever serve as path for the in
vader. Other European tracks are stand

eral inches wider and in case of war no
other nation will be able to switch en-
gines and cars on to the tracks and thus

They seemed very fond of each other.
There was just the least little inclina-

slowly as to suggest the thought that
their pace was regulated not so much by
the infirmities Of age as by the desire
and pleasure Of being alone together.
They were talking earnestly.

AI.ake of Bniiing Lava.

Mauna Loa, the gigantic Hawaiian
volcano, has two craters or openings,
one of which, Kilauea, is the largest
active volcanic crater i'll the world. The
mountain is IA, 100 feet high, and XII
lauea is situated on the eastern side,
about 4, 900 feet above the level OF the
sea. This marvellous crater is really a
vast lake of boiling lava which rises and
falls continually by the action OF sub
terranean fires. In tossing to and fro
like troubled sea Of molten metal the
lava is dashed against the cliffs and
hardens there in the form of long, CLASSY
filaments, gigantic knobs. miniature
trees, and in imitation OF grass, leaves,
etc.
Another form Of CLASSY filament to
be found along the shores OF this fiery
lake is in the shape of queer punches
and tufts of lava made up Of an aggre-
CATION of vitreous threads which the ma
tives call "Pele's hair" Pele being the
goddess to whom the mountain is dedi-
Gated. These CLASSY threads appear TO
be caused by the passage OF steam
through the molten lava. In so doing
small particles in the shape OF bubble
like balloons are thrown into the air,
leaving tail behind like a comet.
When the scene Of these miniature steam
eruptions is near rock or the shore all
solid and cool surfaces are found cover
ed with punches Of "Pele's hair" This
chair" was formerly used in mystic
native ceremonies, and Of late years
has been gathered in large quantities
