The krakatoa Eruntiop

Perhaps the most remarkable vol.
canic eruption known was that which
took place in August, 1883, at the is
land Of Krakatoa, I'm the strait OF
Sunda. Streams Of volcanic dust were
thrown seventeen miles high, and more
than cubic mile of material was ex-
PEELED from the volcanic crater. The
air waves started by the eruption trav-
eled around the earth seven times.
The noise was heard at Maeassa, 969
miles away; at Borneo, 1,116 miles dis
tant; In Western Australia, LOO miles
away, and even at Rodagues, distant
more than 1900 miles. The dust and
powdered pumice thrown out Of the
crater made the entire circuit Of the
earth before settling down and were
the cause of the strange sunsets that
were observed for many months.-New
York American.

AFFIDAVIT OF THE
ENTRyMAN NOT
REQUIRED
ALAMOGORDO CASE Is
UNDER NEW DECISION
County Man Acquitted of
Perjury Grand Jury Dis
charged After Returning Five
indictments.
(Snccial Corresnondcncc.N

Alamogordo, n. M, Nov. 3O.-All
of the time of the United States court
yesterday was given to the trial of
Jake s. Oswald of Endee, Quay Co.,
indicted for perjury. The indictment
alleged that in making affidavit as a
witness for John +. Batson in the
final commutation proof of home
stead entry, he swore falsely. After
some thirty minutes elaboration the
jury returned n verdict of not guilty.
JOIN f. Batson, the entryman, and
John Kampsey, the second witness are
also under indictment on the same
charge. Their cases will not be tried
at this term of court.
In fact it is more than likely that
the last named cases will not be put
on trial at all. This is by reason of
a recent decision which is of a vast
deal of importance in the southwest
where so much of the public domain
still lies open to homestead and desert
entry. This decision was by Judge
Robert f. Lewis of the United States
circuit our of appeals, at Denver.
This section of country lies within
the jurisdiction of hat court, and
therefore III decision Will affect sub
sequent decisions in local courts, it is
said.
Judge Lewis held that an entryman
may not be convicted of perjury by
reason of any false statement which
he might make in his affidavit of
final. or final commutation proof, be-
aust his own affidavit is not required
by law. The law requires only that
the entryman prove his continuous
residence upon the entry, etc, by two
Witnesses. 1t is merely a de-
partment regulation which requires
the entryman himself TO make an
affidavit.
This decision is based upon the
principle of law hat it is possible to
convict of perjury only when the wit
ness is required or compelled, by law,
