Statement Rouses Prohi.

The statement of Mayor J. L. Wikle before the city council Thursday night that one reason for his not resorting to more drastic action in the effort to enforce the prohibition laws is that it will probably take 5000 to work up case and then the violator would be able to secure an acquittal by ap- peal to the city court" has aroused a storm of criticism on the part of pro hibitionists, who seem to regard it as an eXaggeration of conditions and d reflection on Talhoun county courts. Sentiment seems to be growing among the prohibitionsts for the organiza- tion of a law and order league and the project is expected to assume defi- nite shape within few days.

preme court reversing itself and uphold ing the Alabama code law, which ap- propriates pro rata of the state road and bridge tax to the cities of the state. in stead of allowing the entire amount to go to the counties for public roads, is of vital interest here, where it has been the bone of contention in the courts for several years.

Technology had finally succeeded in
measuring the temperature Of the boil.
ing lavas OK Kilauea has awakened a
popular interest among the mainlanders
in Hawaii's tame volcano one Of the
natural wonders Of the world. The
scientists Of the world, however, did
not have to wait for the success Of the
experiments with the heat measuring
instruments to become interested in the
scientific expedition Of +. A. Perret, of
the Massachusetts, Tech. and of
Doctor Shepherd of the Carnegie Fun-
dalton. Professor Jaggar interested the
scientific world some time ago IN the
scientific necessity Of a detailed study
of the phenomena at Kilauea, where
volcanic action could be observed and
data obtained easier than at any other
active volcano ON the globe. The news
that, Mr.. Perret and Doctor Shepherd
had started for Hawaii, therefore, was
gratifying to geophysicists everywhere.
The scientific expedition reached XII
lauea on July 2 last and already the
scientists have obtained some substan-
tial results as a reward for their efforts
and have well commenced the compila-
ton of accurate and sustained data of
the vagaries of Madame Pele.

PRELIMINARY REPORT, TECH
NoLoGY EXPEDITION,
KII,AIJEA

(By Frank A. Perret, Director Pro Tem.)
On June 90, with my colleague Doc
tor Shepherd / left Honolulu for Hilo,
breaking the journey at Kahului where
the crater of sHaleakala was visited and
photographed.
July 2, arrived Hilo and proceeded
to volcano. The lake of lava--about
$50 meters greatest diameter-was fair
ly active with several fountains COM
ing up at intervals of about twelve
seconds. An island consisting of two
unequal parts joined by low isthmus
Aoated Just east of the center of the
crater lake. Its most remarkable fea-
ture was an arched opening under the
isthmus leading to a cavity under the
island into " hieh the surface lava of
the lake was pouring in cascades from
either side. The main circulation of
lava in the lake was from under the
southwest bank over the surface to the
north and east. Estimated lava to be
about eighty-fipe meters below rest
house and to be rising. Fountains were
clear red in full daylight; estimated
temperature at 1000 degree centigrade.
During the following days number of
changes were observed. The grotto
under the island was enlarged and a
freer flow of lava took place.
At intervals the level inside would
rise to the level of the lake and the
downhow ceased only to be resumed
again later ON when fountain could be

seen yelling up inside the cavity. At
ter this the level would drop and the
cascade again would be formed, and
this alienation continued until the
18th, when the island moved during
the night to the, southeast bank OF the
lake and the remarkable cascade ceased
its flow. (The ofold Faithful" lava
fountain was not in action during the
last days of the cascade but resumed
when the cascade ceased.) Spatter
cones were formed on the west and a
line of them on the southeast bank
all emitting flames of burning gas, and
on the 7th vent was formed high up
on the east wall OF the crater from
which little spurts of lava were issuing
accompanied by jets of burning gas.
In twof days;this vent was inactive, but
it has quite recently again become in
candcscent. The rising lake Overfowed
its banks at frequent intervals form
ing the we'll known corded pahoehoe
flows. Many, observations, both visual
and Photographic, where initiated for
systematic study of the various phe-
noniena of the lava lake, the flames, the
circulation of the lava, formation of
grottoes the mechanism of the lava
foundations, etc. In the latter, four

On July 8, sites were selected for the
