for Long ShutdoWn.
Pittston, Pa, May 10.-Thousands of
miners thronged the streets of the city
all night, waiting for further news
concerning the temporary strike order
issued last night at Scranton by tho
executive committees of the three an
thracite districts. 1t is stated EN-,
phatically by union leaders that the
entire fifteen thousand mine workers
in this section will support the or
ganization.
At the collieries today superin-
tendents were busy directing the re-
moval of mules. Very little coal i:
being mined, work being confined prin-
cipally to clearing the chambers and
preparing for the struggle which now
appears certain.
The feeling of public disapproval Of
the strike which prevailed here week
ago has been converted into one of
popular sympathy for the miners be-
cause of the refusal of the operators
to arbitrate the disputed points.

HOW VOLCANOES ARE FORMED
Professor shaler, of Harvard, Explains
the Phenomena.


Cambridge, Mass, May 10.-Profes-
sor Shaler of Harvard University, says
volcanic outbreaks are merely the ex-
plosion of steam under high pressure
steam which is bound in rocks buried
underneath the surface OF the earth
and there subjected to such tremendous
beat that when the conditions are right
it's pent-up energy breaks forth, and it
skaters its stone prison walls into dust.
The process by which the water be-
comes buried in this manner is a long
one. Some contend that it leaks down
from the surface of the earth thru fis-
sures in the crater crust, but this the
cry is not generally accepted.
The common belief is that water en-
ters the rocks during the crystallization
period, and that these rocks, thru the
natural action of rivers and streams,
become deposited in the bottom of the
ocean. Here they lie for many ages, be-
coming buried deeper and deeper under
masses of like sediment. which are con-
stantly being washed down upon them
from above. This process is called the
blanketing process.
Each additional layer of sediment.
while rot raising the level of tn. sea
bottom. buries the first layers Just so
much deeper, and adds to their tenn
perature just as does the laying of eX-
ira blankets on a bed.
When the first layer has reached q
depth of few thousand feet the rocks
which contain the water of crystalliz-
alton are subjected to a terrific heat.
This heat generates steam, which Is
held in a state of rightful tension in
its rocky prison.
1t is at these moments that volcanic
eruptions occur They occur because
of wrinkling in the outer crust in the
earth's surface-wrinklings caused by
the constant shrinking of the earth it
self and by the contraction of the outer
surface as it settles on the plastic CEN
ter underneath. Fissures are caused
by these foldings, and as these assures
reach down into the earth the pressure
is removed from the rocks and the COM
pressed steam in them and it explodes
with tremendous force.
The rocks containing the water are
blown into dust, which sometimes is
carried so high as to escape the power
of the earth's attraction and floats By
itself thru space. After the explosions
have occurred lava pours forth. This
is merely melted rock which overf1ows
| like water from a boiling kettle But
the explosion always precedes the flow
| and one will notice that there is always
an outpouring of dust before the lava
| comes.

The water in st. Pierre harbor is SO
