Around the World.

two miles away we could not tell that
anything unusual was around us, ex-
cept for the fact that the grounds was
in constant tremble. But when
morning came and looked out of my
window, l felt that must be mighty
close to the jumping off place, for in
every direction little jets of steam
were coming from the ground while in
the distance rose the smoke of the
volcano.
Near the hotel were lot of little
houses, and if one wanted hot
sulphur bath all he had to do was to
go in one of them and nature would
do the rest. He got it fresh from the
lower regions. A party of us tramp
ed across the lava bed to the mouth
of the crater, and it was considerably
in some places was so hot that we
had to walk fast in order to keep our
feet from getting scorched. In one
place the guide took us down into a
hole in the lava and it was so hot
that we had to keep moving to pre-
vent the heat from taking off the
soles of our shoes.
The volcano was not active at the
time of our visit, consequently we
not only went to the edge of the
crater but went down inside a short
distance. There we could see the
vast lake of fire, boiling and bubbling
all the world like pictures in Dantes
Inferno. Pieces of wood thrown
down into the pit would catch fire and
blaze up, while the awful cauldron
continually boiled and emitted jets
of sulphurous steam. Some idea of
what this volcano is may be obtained
when / tell you that its crater is
mile across, and the old crater, which
is filled with molten lava when it is
in activity, is four miles across.
Back at the hotel we listened to
stories of people who had lived there
when the volcano was spouting fire,
and sending streams of lava down to
the sea. We saw strands of hair from
the goddess Pele-a peculiar hair like
substance which forms near the
mouth of the crater, and heard of the
strange rites of natives who throw
cherished things into the volcano to
propitiate the goddess, notwithstand-
ing the fact that they are all sup
posed to be good Christians now. We
inscribed out names in the register,
added our mite of sentiment to the
gems of thought which had been in
scribed by the thousands who had
preceded us, and are now back at
, Hilo enjoying most delightful time
under the shade of bamboo tree.

Hilo, H. l., October 29.-I have been

which is located the volcano is a
precipitous bluff, rising more than a
thousand feet sheer from the sea.
Over this cliff tumble hundreds of
wondrously beautiful water falls,
some of them reaching clear to the
ocean, but most OF, them shimmering
away to mist before they touch the
water below.
Rounding into the harbor of Hilc
the steamer stopped in water SO clear
that we could see the fish on the bot
tom 100 feet below. We had to make
ers, as the steamer could not get
close to the shore, and this was the
only part of the voyage that was
at all dangerous. Once on shore the
charm of Honolulu was forgotten in
the greater charm of Hilo. The little
village nestles SO closely in the dense
tropical foliage of vine and palm that
it can scarcely be seen. 1t is just

Gates REVIVAL
AGAIN DEFERRED
NO BUILDING NOW AVAILABLE
FOR THE SERVICES.
Matter Was Discussed at Meeting of
the Local Pastors, When It Was
Decided to Cancel the Engagement
Until Next Spring.

The religious people of the city
will learn with regret this morning
that Rev. Gates will not hold revival
in this city at as early a date as was
first anticipated and announced in
the Daily News.
At meeting of the protestant min
listers of the city held Monday night
it was decided that the meeting had
best be deferred until some time dur
ing next spring, as it is impossible to
secure building large enough to &C.
commodate the large congregations
which are sure to greet this noted d.
vine.
There are numbers of buildings
available, but none of them are prop
erly heated and after a lengthy dis
cussion of the situation by the local
ministers it was decided best to defer
the meeting until spring when fires
will be unnecessary and there will
be no drawback whatever.
While this will be great disap-
pointment to numbers of the citizens
of this city they will no doubt take
the same view as the ministers and
will join in aiding them to make the
meeting one of the greatest in the
history of the city when it does occur

vince their fellow partisans from
other states that he is the man for
the place at the head of the national
ticket. While Bryan's recent visit to
New York resulted in largely increas-
ing his popularity in some quarters, a
majority of the party leaders of the
state are opposed to bringing forward
the Nebraskan again in the role of
presidential candidate. The support
ers of Chanler admit that they have
not as yet been very successful in
arousing enthusiasm for their candl-

South and West, and this they hope
to acmomplish at the January meet

Solo That Amazed the Church.

A certain young Unitarian minister
visiting a friend and classmate who
lives in Roxbury, and while the two
were sitting around a fire and spin
ming yarns the minister who is visit
ing and who comes from the West,
told this:
when | went West first l was in
small town CALLED LIE, and in the
choir of my church the village black
smith did noble work as baritone. He
had a voice that could shake noun
tains, and whatever it lacked in any
other feature it made up in volume.
He couldn't read music any more
than he could English, but he learned
tune very readily.
zone Sunday we were to be favor
ed with new anthem because it was
special occasion, and the baritone
had one portion all to himself. Unfor-
tunately he had missed many of the
practices.
''The anthem went along excellent
ly until it came to beautiful part
which reads: And, dying, bids us all
aspire
HHere the rest of the singers stop
ped short, in that quick. sudden way
that choirs have, and in the ensuing
stiffness sounded the ponderous tones
of the blacksmith:
"'And dying brides are filled with
fire."
