archs who, knowing nothing of the
laws OF nature, explained her phenom-
ena by their own fears, made up all
sorts OF nightmares, among them a
hell for the souls of people they did
not agree with on questions of their
day. This he'll must have been pattern
ed on some volcano they had seen and
heard and dreamed of; for their stories
about the place of everlasting torment.
where the fire is not quenched are
full of volcanic imagery. And those
mysterious voices of the pit. Did not
they prove the presence there of peo-
pie in distress, bad people, of course.
Who had scoffed in life at Jewish patri-
archs, old, bearded men with desert
madness in their brains?
Was the volcano trip worth while?
Upon that point our travelling party
was pretty we'll agreed, Every day of
the seven held some new pleasure
There was comfort of table and domi,
Gle all the way, despite a little rain
and more than little mistiness: crisp
air and sharp appetites on the high
lands; the Fascinating visit to Pele's
mountain home; the run back along a
strange coast with a stop-off at Cap
tain Cooks monument and a carria ge
ride through Kona. One who misses
that journey loses one of the best
things the Territory has to offer.

BY CORA DELLA WILLIAMS.

After two days spent at the Volcano
House watching the smoke from the
burning pit circula ting toward the
heavens by day and by night. the glow
as it lights the darkness from the fires
that burn hundreds of feet deep down
in the earth, paid a visit direct to
that seething, boiling furnace of fire
and lava
AS l watched, l saw flames leap, then
momentariiy die away, then rise and
soar again and again, forming fantas-
tic shapes in their efforts to vent their
fury. I saw a fiery banner hundreds of
feet long, burn like a piece of paper,
then blacken as if dead, and in another
instant it glowed and burned again.
saw serpents Of fire travel across the
floor of the pit and strike their fangs
in the boiling lava.
There seemed to be beds and lakes
OF fire each working furiously as if it
had some purpose to accomplish.
AS l watched the lava squirt and flow,
L was awed by the weirdness of it all.
and 1 thought of that Shakespearean
play and the three witches that heat
ed the cauldron to boiling over, while
they danced around it chuckling and
sloating over the vengeance that must
surely come
Outside the pit in all directions the
grounds are pouring forth hot steam
and smoke. The sulphur beds are al
most suffocating from the fumes that
constantly rise from them, and the
hand held six inches above the escape
of steam would be burned to a blister
in a seconds time.
Out in the crater I burned many
postal cards in the heat that pours
from the cracks in the lava. card
held in the cracks four inches below
the surface will be well scorched in
half a minute, and in one minutes time
it would be burned to a flake.
One of the old pits in the crater emits
heat as if from a furnace. There each
night visitors make coffee and dry
drenched clothing. Yet one may walk
in perfect comfort and safety above
those subterranean fires. and view in
wonder the splendor of it all.
Fearlessly stood on the brink of the
pit and sent the power of my lungs
across that turbulent chasm. In an
instant the perpendicular cliffs a half
mile away took up my voice and sent
the echo back. Again and again I
shouted to hear the waves of my voice
float back across the pit.
AS I retraced my steps over those
miles of lava waste, where once burned
fires as fiercely as those now raging
in Halemaumau. I was struck by the
blueness of the sky and the brightness
of the sun.
How majestic! How sublime! are
the infinite laws that control the uni
verse.

RIRNHAM GUILTY OF LARCENY.
Conviction In First of Mutual Reserve
Cases

New York, Dec. Ia.-George Burn
ham, JG., vice-president and general
counsel of the Mutual Reserve Life
Insurance company, today was con-
victed of larceny Of $500 of the COM
panys funds. The prosecution and
convection of Burnham was an out
growth of the Investigation of the in
surance companies in this state by
legislative committee a year ago.
The other officers of the insurance
company Frederick A, Burnham,
president, and George y. Eldredge,
vice president, were indicted at the
same time as the man who was con-
Nicted to day. one of tne sensations
of the trial which ended today was
the production of a check by the
prosecution which bore the name OF
Louis r. Payne, former superintendent
of insurance, and the United States
Express company, Of which United
states senator Platt is president 1t
was not claimed, however. that Burn
ham paid the amount of this cneck
to Mr. Payne but that it was used to
resist an alleged demand by Payne for
100000 from the life insurance COM
pany.
Proceedings were postponed until
next Friday at the request Of Burn
hams counsel, Burr ham beeing re-
manded to the Tombs.

SCIINITZ AND RUFF ON TRIAL
Only Arguments Heard. Technically
on Grand Juror.

Sam Francisco, Dec. 11.-When the
cases of Mayor SchmitZ ana Abraham
Ruef were called this morning the
mayer showed less fatigue and anxiety
than he had at any time since his re-
turn from abroad. A brief confer
ence between the counsel was fol-
lowed by statement by Assistant
District Attorney Heney who said that
there would be no need for the so or
more witnesses who had been SUBJ
poenaed to remain, as there would be
no Chance to call them until the argu-
ment was finished.
In order that they might have a
clear understanding Of the case,
Heney stated that he would object
to the presentation OF any motion to
set aside the indictment on any other
ground than those provided for in the
code. This point being understood,
Attorney Ach began long argument
for the defense. He began by ex-
pounding in general terms the quail
ficauons OF Judge and jurors. finally
disclosing In a roundabout way that
what he wanted to show was that
Wallace r. Wise, a member OF the
grand jury. had been discharged as a
petit Juror in Judge LAWYERS court
within year and that he was not
competent to serve on the grand jury
that found the indictments.
