er crater, 1000 feet lower, showing
surrounded by almost vertical jagged
walls of gray pumice and other erup-
tive materials. This is geyserian
basin, the eruptions of which occur at
irregular intervals of from IL to 20
minutes or more, and with variable
intensity. At times the water, which
tastes like strong vinegar, is hardly
disturbed; at other times a heavy
column accompanied by dense clouds
of vapor surges to variable height,
creating furious tempest on the usu-
ally placid lake.
The volcanic cordillera Of Costa
Rica ends the southwestern extrem-
ity of Lake Nicaragua with Mount
Orosi, the conical form of which de-
notes its igneous origin. But between
1t and the Poas geyser there are a
number of other craters, some still
in semi-active condition and the 9th
ers quite extinct.
Rocked by Earthquakes.
The maximum of volcanic activity
takes place at the eastern end of the
range, and 1t is also that section of
the country, just at its southern foot,
between Turrialba and Poas-the So
called central plateau-that is most
exposed to disastrous earthquakes. 1t
is at the same time the most densely
populated part of the whole country.
This central plateau then is almost
constantly rocked by underground con.
vulsions of variable intensity. From
1866 to 1903, inclusive, the average
was "a, about half Of which were gen.
orally felt in San Jose and its imme-
diate vicinity. The maximum number
of shocks, 103. was reached in 1900.
but during that year there were no
very heavy quakes. Contrary to the
opinion current among the natives,
that these earthquake phenomena are
more frequent at the beginning and at
the end of the rainy season-a view
formerly sustained by the writer him.
self-there is no seasonal periodicity,
the seisms being distributed almost
evenly throughout the twelve months.
The quakes very seldom come singly,
but mostly in groups, with one or
several eliminating shocks at some
point of the series.
Notwithstanding the fact that in
the minds of the highly imaginative
and excited natives the volcanoes
were the original cause of the dis
turbance, these hardly showed any
unusual activity, as was made clear
by a careful exploration; but this
failed to satisfy the public, and the
responsibility was speedily shifted to
hitherto unheard of crater, the
Cacho Negro. which gave the investi-
eating commissioner more trouble and
headaches than all the real volcanoes
and earthquakes taken together.

WEATHER MAN OBSERVES
THAT WEATHER'S ALL RIGHT
There's Nothing Wrong With 1t, HeSays; Don 7
We Have Cool Snap Like This Every June,
Coming Out Of the Northwest? Of Course

Bureau yesterday, Director e. A. Evans
turned with bored expression to
man who had asked him what Is wrong
with the weather. There Is nothing
wrong" he said. I'VE have spell like
this every year: people forget"
The mercury yesterday morning was
down to 81 degrees, which was but
half degree lower than the average
Temperature for the same date in the
last thirteen years. According to the
observer. every year at about this time
a cool wave sweeps across the north
ern part OF the country from west to
east. This year 1t has just reached q
little farther south than Is usual. That
explains the whole business. says Mr..
Evans.
Looking back over the records he
found that last year the maximum tenn
perature for June was SO degrees,
whereas two years previous 1t was
down to Al. which was the minimum
temperature for the date In the lass
decade All down the line the statis-
tics show that there has been a. cool
snap In the early part OF June. and
after an inspection of the figures one
finally arrives at the conclusion that
this year we are really having unusu-
ally warm weather for the season.
There is nothing wrong about 1t. de-
clared Mr. Evans, and 1t Is liable to
get even cooler before 1t gets warmer.
