ERUPT|OAS OF COL|MA
MeXico's West Coast Smoker
Always Active.
TWENTY-FIVE A MONTH
AMERICANS HAD HARD TIME
TRYING TO REACH CRATER.
AS Long Ago as 1876 There Was
Violent Eruption, Which Caused
Great Damage.
TWENTY-FIVE A MONTH

Mount Colima, which, according to a re-
cent dispatch, Is again on the rampage,
Ia situated in the southwestern corner of
the state of Jalisco. Mexico, and Is the only
active volcano in North America visible
from passenger train. 1t rises to an ele-
walton Of 1920 feet above sea level, and
approximately 5000 feet above the sur
rounding country to the east. About ten
miles to the north Of it there is an extinct
crater, which rises about 1900 feet higher
than the present smoking cone.
According to the report made by the gov
eminent observatory Of ColIma there has
been during the past year an average of
twenty-five eruptions monthly, consisting
Of smoke, vapor and ashes, and sometimes
accompanied by the discharge of red-hot
rocks, but little or no lava has been elected
from the volcano in recent years. Its crater
Is absolutely inaccessible.
An attempt made last year by two Anert-
cans accustomed to mountain climbing was
unsuccessful, the explorers being driven
back as they approached the crater by the
overpowering gases, and met by frequent
volleys of red-hot ashes and incandeScent
rocks which came rolling down upon them
like Internal engines of destruction.
Mariana Barcena, professor of geology
and director Of the central meteorological
observatory. in a recent report upon the
present condition Of the volcano. prompted
by the disastrous outbursts of Mont Pelee,
says:
Deductions as to the Composition.
''It is impossible at the present time to see
the rocks which form the body of the Vol
can de Fuego, inaccessible as 1t is today.

Adds Many an Extra Dollar to the
Earnings of Policemen.

It seldom happens that a week passes
without the police being asked to arrest
deserters from the army or navy. Descrip-

are telephoned to the several stations
These descriptions are always to be relied
upon and the member of the force who
makes a speciality Of looking after such
cases manages to earn few dollars In adj
dition to his salary. Rewards are always
offered in such cases, and the police are
allowed to receive the money, minus 20
per cent, which goes to the clothing fund.
One day this week an arrest was made ana
the prisoner admitted that he had been
absent from his ship for more than two
years. It appeared that his arrest had
never been requested. and the police omcer
who arrested him was sadly disappointed.
"Years ago" said an old policeman,
"there were men on the force who did very
little duty except what time they spent
looking after deserters. II was said OF
one man that he always knew where he
could get deserter and that he made an
arrest every time he was In heed OF a few

covered with hot ashes, scoria and loose
sand in every direction. We can, however,
make deductions as to it's composition, TAX
ing into consideration what we know of the
formation of the old crater now extinct.
1.-The mass of this cone must necessarily
be porphyry, covered with the basaltic pro-
ducts, the scoria and ashes Of the numerous
eruptions. We were able to scale it only to
an altitude of 3, ITO meters. We saw the
porphyry at the base, and upon this the
masses Of basalt. On the slope we saw
only the loose accommodations, product OF
later eruptions. At the beginning there
must have been a porphyric formation of
masses superposed in leaves or layers,
which powerful volcanic movement up
lifted, forming the peak and the crater.
1.-THE rocks emitted by recent eruptions
are found IN masses of various sizes, from
the very large ones to the pebbles or grains
Of sand and ashes. The large masses are
of the breaking up which they undergo in
cooling, but they all have the same COM
position referred to, with more or less vari-
atoms In color and appearance"
Eruption in 1916.
The inhabitants of Zapotlan, which nes-
ties at the foot of the formidable-looklng
volcano, relate, from certain data gathered
from their chronicles, that in 1915 there
was great eruption of Colima, causing
much damage According to the traveller,
Herzog, who interrogated the oldest In
dams Of Zapotlan and San Marcos, and
also gathered some traditional data from
these places. in 1911 the volcano threw out
a great deal of sand, ash and scoria, these
reaching radius of forty leagues. To this
succeeded earthquakes up to 1913 causing
widespread disasters in the towns Of Zapot-
Ian and adjacent municipalities.
Accompanied by Earthquakes.
From this time on violent eruptions. ac-
companied by earthquakes, occurred in
1743. 1853, 1906, 1915. 1884 and 1869. Since
this last date there have been no disastrous
eruptions, and the inhabitants in the vicin.
ity Of the fire mountain had come to re-
gard it as a tame tiger until the news OF
the cataclysm on st. Vincent reached them.
Then the long handed-down hereditary
fear Of the volcano, for many generations
forgotten, awoke again in the breasts Of
the people. This and certain ominouS symp-
toms Of an internal commotion down in the
bowels of the mountain, in some quarters
believed to be sympathetic with the out
bursts of Pelee, inspired a general alarm
throughout the towns round about tho foot
of the volcano.
Hacendados and merchants, who could,
moved from the vicinity, or at least sent
their families to GuadaIajara where they
would be out Of all danger. But the greater
portion of the inhabitants Of the little
pueblos, who were not SO fortunately sit
uated, lived In state of uncertainty,
watching the column of smoke by day and
the fire glow by night, which lighted up
the entire sky, with a growing dread and
apprehension.

LOCAL SPORTS DEEPLY INTERESTED
IN MILLER-FARREN BOLT

There is more interest in the COM
ing bout between Herman Miller and
Billy Farren than in any sporting
event that has occurred in Savannah
in some time. The partisans of both
men have been arguing their respec-
tive merits since the last bout, which
ended so unsatisfactory, and there is
no diminution of the confidence ex-
pressed in both.
The manner in which the last bout
closed leaves the question as to who
is the best man still Enthusiastically
answered. The bout was one of the
best. as far as it had progressed, that
has ever been pulled off in Savannah.
Though Miller appeared to have a
shade the better of it by his clever
work in the open, the "Philly" boxer
was still unhurt, and, as he still had
nine rounds to go, had more than a
lighting chance. Farren is a good,
strong, sturdy hitter with either hand,
and though his punches have no spec
tacular appearance, still they were
landed with considerable force. The
eagerness of both men to finish the
battle lead them both to make several

winner of 524 Mile Ocean Race by
Many Hours.

Winner of 524 Mile Ocean Race by
Many Hours.
Morton F. Plants schooner yacht, In
gomar, the winner of the 524-mile
ocean race, finished last Friday, is an
other victory for the Herreschoffs. as
we'll as for the yacht. The following is
from the New York Tribune of Satur-
day:
with the pennant of the New York
Yacht Club flying at her fore truck and
her great press of canvas heeling her
down to her scuppers, Morton F. Plants
schooner yacht Ingomar dashed by the
old Scotland lightship on the port tack.
the winner of the longest ocean yacht
race sailed since the Coronet and the
Dauntless crossed the Atlantic in 1887.
when the .lightship bore due east
from the schooner's quarterback, the
time was taken by her captain. 1t was
9:49:50, and little figuring showed the
elapsed time for the whole course to be
90 hours II minutes % seconds.
while this appears, on the face of
it, to be slow going for the distance,
it must be remembered that almost
from the start of the race the yacht
encountered head winds of light to
moderate strength, and where the sail
ing is nearly all windward work it is
customary to add one-third to the orig
inal distance laid down on the chart:
therefore instead of sailing 524 miles,
the Ingomar has probably covered 702
miles since she sailed away from Scot
land lightship at noon last Monday.
This shows that her average speed for
that distance has been at the rate of
Z. 81 knots an hour, for every hour she
sailed"
The oft quoted reply to Queen Vic
toria from the uuartermaster of the
royal yacht, when the America won
her cup in 1851. Your majesty, there
is no second" might we'll apply here.
The Ingomar had so far outsailed the
other five that started in company
with her that there really was no sec
ond IL sight from her deck after the
first twenty-four hours had passed,
and at a late hour last night no Sec
ond yacht had arrived.
At the first turning point, Nantucket
LightShip, 100 miles from the start,
the Ingomar was three hours six min
utes and nine seconds ahead of the
next schooner, the Hildegarde, owned
BY Edward r. Coleman of Philadelphia.
The third schooner to round that mark
was ]. G. n. Whitaker's Iroquois. the
Lys. The fifth, George Ladders En-
dymion has not been heard from since
she started. and Robert E. Tod's
Thistle turned back after sailing 100
miles
Morton r Plant has every reason to
be proud of his schooner, for ever
since she was put in commission this
summer her racing career has been
an almost unbroken series of victories.
The yacht was designed and built by
the Herreshoffs at Bristol, r. l., the
lead for her keel being run soon after
that Of the Reliance. Many OF the
mechanics that worked on the cup de-
fender helped build the Plant schooner
when they were through with the Re
lance.
The Ingomars first appearance IN
race this summer was at the first
souodron RIM of the New York Yacht
Club, from Glen Cove to Morris Cove.
She was classed with the Emerald,
the Corona and the Chanticieer' and

WILLING TO REPLAY
FORFEITED GAME,

Manager of G. L. AS Would Rather
RepIay Than Have Any Doubt Ex-
pressed.
Manager ]. w. Heffernan of the c.
L. AS said yesterday that he was
willing to replay the game which had
been forfeited to them Saturday by
the Chathams.
Mr.. Heffernan claims that the state
ment that the Y. M. C. AS can pro-
test the game because the formality of
lining up on the field had not been
gone through with is absurd and that
rather than leave an opening, in case
the C. L. IS win the pennant, for d
claim that it was won on a technical
ity or fluke, that they will replay
the game scheduled for Saturday. The
C. L. AS were disappointed at the in
ability to play the game and were
confident of winning and, in fact, are
still confident that they can win the
game if the forfeit is passed up and
the game replayed.
The Chatham Artillery ball team
has explained it's failing to show UP
at the ball grounds Saturday to play
against the Librarians by the state
ment that a majority of the players
could not get away from their work.
The management of the team state
that they regret very much that the

uled and that their failure to play was

The game will be called tomorrow
afternoon at 4:3O O'Clock instead of 5

if possible, organize a team to play

The lineup of the Jacksonville team,
through some oversight of the man
agement, has not yet been received
here. The lineup of the Savannah
team for the first game will be as
follows: Harmon, pitch; Starke, catch;
Bowen, first base; Quinn, second base;
Mcintyre, shortstop; Butler, third
base Rossiter, left field Groves, right

Starke will catch Harmon because
he is more familiar with his work,
and no one could do better than this
same Starke.

will be record breaking.
