south sides of the pit. Walls hereto
fore of an angle of 80 or go degrees are
now perpendicular. The lava flow and
cones are covered with about 80 or 60
feet of debris. The hot cracks are much
hotter. and the crater itself is perfectly
clear no steam or sulphur fumes es-
Gaping at all. If this lack of smoke
continues there is apt to be an explosion
and outbreak shortly, according to the
kamaainas who profess to know.
HILO'S SUMMER RESORT.
Everyone that spent the Fourth at
the Volcano is unstnting in their
praise of the management of the hotel,
and the good times they had while
there. one cannot find more n'asnifi
cent view than from the hotel verapdas,
and one would have to go a long way
to find more exhilarating and bracing
air than one encounters on their tramps
about the hotel grounds and in taking
in the several points of interest. There
are enough points of interest about the
great cavern to give one occupation for
every day in the week.
Mr.. st. Clair Bidgood has so changed
things at the Volcano House that it is
a comfort to be housed there. The era
of olden days, when hard beds, dirty
floors and a disagreeable table We're the
order of the day has passed. The guest
when he goes into his room finds
bouquet upon his dresser clean linen
upon his bed, crisp towels upon the
rack. and cleanliness staring him from
every side and making him blush at the
dust he has picked up on the road.
Brittle white celery and fresh straw
berries from the hotel gardens are
among some of the many delicacies
served up to all alike. In fact, there
is no reason in the world why Hilo's
four hundred should travel to the Coast
for an outing. when right at home there
is summer resort of unequalled at
fractions. with good food and cheer that
surpasses any resort of equal size

CHANGES IN VOLCANO.
VOLCANO HOUSE, July 19-The
heavy earthquake shock last Sunday
caused a disturbance in the crater here
that has kept up ever since. The walls
began caving in Immediately after the
quake and lava has been falling since
Sunday. The cones and cracks from
which the sulphur fumes have escaped
since last January are entirely covered
by debris and the floor of the crater
is entirely free from smoke.
The conditions existing here today
are the same as just prior to the out
break last winner. The flow that took
place then has been entirely covered
up. 1t is expected that fire will appear
in the crater at any time if the usual
course of outbreaks is followed. Wealth
