GREAT BUBBLE OF LAVA
10 Discovered Floating Within the cra1
ter Of 4 Volcano In
Honolulu,

Mail advices from Honolulu tell of
the most amazing phenomenon ever
observed within the crater of q volca1
NO by a white man.
It was no less than q tremendous
bubble of lava, inflated by gas from the
very center of the earth, which sup
ported an island as it fioated across q
lake of fiery liquid. Frank A. Perret1
the scientist who observed 1t. estimat.|
ed that 1t covered an area of 5000
square feet, and he was fortunate
enough to secure a few Photographic.
although conditions were far from IA
vorable for picture taking.
The bubble was a huge sausage
shaped affair, inflated with %volcaniol
gas and composed of lava glass;" says
the scientist in his report. "A laws
fountain, boiling continuously UNDER
the eastern end, gave the appearances
of a cre propeller, and the amazing
continuance seemed to be navigating
the lake like a. great whaleback
steamer.
There was an island OF black crust
which. when it began to sink, evolved
a great quantity Of gas, which blew the
bubble Of lava glass, and this In turn
sustained the island and prevented it'
from sinking. 1t made several tours
of the lava before it disappeared from
sight at last"
This was observed in the volcano
Halemaumau. ard Perrett and twoff
Japanese assistants were the only: oue6
who saw it.

How. Women Take Criticism.

1F1 - ~ III
In theasLife Of John Oliver Hoobes,
edited by her father, John Morgan
Richards. there is a slashing arraign-
lment of the literary woman in her at
titude toward those who criticize her
work. It is from the pen Of Moberly
Bell, the famous editor OF the Lon
don Times. Moberly Bell and Mrs.
Craigie were personal friends. and the
latter wrote protesting against the
treatment that the Flute Of Pan had
received at the hands Of. the Times
reviewers. In response the editor
wrote in part: There Is one thing
and only one thing that the omnipo-
tent has absolutely failed to create. He
has made good women. bad women,
clever women, silly. women. sel6sh
women and heroines Of s~elf-sacrihce.
but he had never yet made . woman
who could stand-I will not say Id
verse criticism, but-one note Of dew
alton. from absolute and. unqualified
praise Of any Of her literary efforts.

MOST VALUABLE OF GARDENS
II ls Located Inside the Bank Of Eng.
land and Was Once a Grave
yard.

"As safe as the Bank of England"
has become almost a proverb. But
recent events have shown that the
bank 10 not quite as safe in its
foundations as was generally sup
posed. One or two great cracks have
suddenly appeared. which necessi-
tates the help Of the builder.
There are many curious things
about the bank. but among them how
many know that it possesses a re-
spectacle garden? 1t is to be found
just inside the Threadneedle street
entrance, on the left hand side.
This old-fashioned garden has .
paths and a couple of trees. the whole
forming a quadrangle with the bank
building running all round.
Its history is a curious one. In re-
atty this garden is the c~hurchyard
of the vanished church Of st. Christie
pher-le-Stock, which used to stand
where the Mansion house now is.
One reason why the church was
pulled down was because it's tower
completely overlooked the bank, and
It was feared that 1t would be a dan
