crater is about four miles in diameter
and perhaps 200 feet deep. The lake
of fire, which may be described as =,
crater within a crater, frequently over
flows with lava, but the flow does not
extend outside the rim of Kilauea.
The mouth of the crater in which the
lake is situated is filled with vapors
and steam arising from the surface.
so that it is impossible for the visitor
TO see the surface of tive lake.
Standing on the summit of one of
the high peaks of the island, the visitor
sees below him the clouds. at level
of perhaps 1000 feet beneath him, while
in the distance are to be seen the out
lines of neighboring craters, towering
above the clouds. The effect was some
thing never to be forgotten.
On the high peak of Mauna Kea,
$4,000 feet above the sea level, is a
lake, perhaps $50 yards in diameter.
How this lake exists, lying as it does
in the crater of one of these extinct
volcanoes, the bed formed of volcanic
materials, is a fact to puzzle the
visitor. 1t formed an interesting sub
ject for one of the pictures in the col
lection.
In making the ascent of Mauna Kea
a wonderful change was noticed in the
temperature. At the 4000-foot point,
where the visitors stopped, the tenn
perature was eighty degrees in the aft
ernoon, While at night it had fallen to
forty-eight. The temperature on top
of the mountain was thirty EIGHT in the
middle of the day and it is said that
the nocturnal temperature at the top
would be from zero to eight degrees
above. On one side of the island of
Oahu, on which the city of Honolulu is
situated, the rainfall amounts to go
inches, while on the other side it is
about twenty-five inches.
The staple article of food is the ''pai-
ali which is made from the root of the
taro plant, a species of lily. The ma
tives pound this root and moisten it
with water, in which form it is known
as poi" 1t is said to be very nutri-
tious. A patch of the taro plant forty
feet square will support a man for
year.
Among the interesting places visited
by the party was the sugar cane plan
tation in the lao valley, on the island
of Maui Here is located the largest
sugar cane mill in the world and the

Mr.. HARRISON says that there is much
sentiment among the natives of the
island in favor of the retention of their
customs and civilization. There is a
certain feeling against the incoming

compulsory education law in the ISL |
ands and the native must learn the |
English language. With the coming of |

change.
Before the annexation of the islands, |
the Chinese were in the majority, but |
the Chinese exclusion act worked |
against them. There are about $4,000
