PHILIPPINE
Mayor LIS the Most Famous, and the
TaaI Comes Next.

Mayor lis the Most Famous, and the
TaaI Comes Next.
The most famous Philippine volcano
and one of the finest volcano cones in
the world is that of Mayor. Its height
Is S,970 feet, and the volcano is visible
at a great distance. Since 1766 records
have been kept of its eruptions. In
that year many plantations and vii
lagos were buried under a stream Of
lava which flowed down its eastern
slope. About 1900 lives were lost in
the eruption of 1914, which buried the
country around a part of the base Of
Mayor under the o%utpourings of lava
and dust. A similar calamity in 1925
destroyed the lives Of about 1880 per-
sons. In the nineteenth century there
were a number Of severe eruptions, in
Guiding one in 1SS6-S7 which continued
about nine months. An eruption in
1897 killed $50 persons and destroyed
much property. Twenty-Five violent
eruptions of this volcano are on record.
Next to Mayor the Taal volcano is
the most remarkable. 1t is on an is
land in the lake Of Bombon, and the is
land. built up by Its outpourings. has
an area of go square miles. The vol
cano Is necessarily ejecting dust anu
vapcr from its crater. Taal. Us well as
Mayor. has been the center of numer-
Gus destructive earthquakes. but no
very great eruption has occurred since
1864, when four villages around the
mountain wore completely Destroyed

THE CODE I'M ANCIENT TIMES
Famous Duel In n Days of Good
Qucen Anne.

Qucen Anne.
In The reign of good Queen Ann
duels were no less frequent sllan In
the rowdy, riotous days or Charles III.
Lord Mohun, a dissoiute, remorx eless
pobleman. was the terror OF honest
London citizens az this time. and
many were the infamous eseapades In
which he played chief character. He
was guilty of one act which bears no
other name than that of murder-the
killing of poor Mountford. the actor.
In cold blood because he endeayored to
protect the honor of Mrs. Bracegirdle.
the famous and beautiful actress. 1t
was Lord Mohun who fought and kill
ed the Duke of Hamilton. an affair
which all will remember who have
read Thackeray's great novel. -Es
mond."
The duel was fought with swords in
Hyde park, the challenge having been
sent by Mohun to the duke. who had.
with perfect accuracy. stated that one
of Mohun's creatures had neither
truth o justice in him." The Duke
of Hamilton received a wound in the
right side of the leg about seven inches
long. another in the right arm. a third
in the upper part of the breast. run,
ming downward toward the body; a
fourth on the outside of the left leg.
Lord Mohun himself was mortally
wounded, receiving a large wound In
the groin, another in the right side
through the body, in which the sword
plunged right up to the hilt, and 4
third in his arm. There is no doubt
he rightly deserved his death, because,
departing from the rules Of fence
among men of honor, he shortened his
sword, thrust under his opponents
guard and stabbed the duke in the
manner of a common assassin.
