KILAUEA VOLCANO
ON HAWAII ISLAND
SHOWING ACTIVITY

HONOLULU, Feb. Intense &C.
tivity, greater than known heretofore to
any Hawaiians now living, is manifest
in Kilauea volcano, according to re-
ports received here. Kilauea is the
largest active crater in the world
eight miles in circumference, and is
situated in the southeasterly part Of
the island of Hawaii, the largest is
land of the group.
The volcano, enclosed by a circular
wall from 200 to 700 feet in height
lis a black plain of some four square
miles in area, within which is the pit
of Halemaumau, about 1000 feet in
diameter, recently empty to depth
of a thousand feet, but now nearly
level to its mouth with boiling lava.
A few months ago the life of the vol
cano could hardly be discerned, but
today the pit is a roaring, boiling,
swirling lake of fire of many acres
in extent and at night the glow from
the red hot lava can be seen all over
the island and far out at sea. The
fiery lake is filled with spouting foun-
tains that shoot the liquid rock hun
dreds of feet into the air. The rim
of the pit is constantly crumbling,
eaten away at its base by the surging
tide of fire, and tumbling with deafen-
ing crashes into the molten mass.
Reports from Hilo record the peril
GUS feat of Prof. T. A. Jaggar, jr.,
director of the Volcano observatory,
in venturing out on the hot, barely SOL
idified edge of the lava for more than
100 yards to plunge his instruments
into the lake of fire for the purpose
of ascertaining its temperature. He
was successful and he and his assist
ants escaped in safety only short
time before the spot on which they
had stood was engulfed and became
itself a part of the boiling flood.
The temperature of the lake is more
than 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, accord
ing to the results obtained by Profess
sor Jaggar. The temperature was
found by thrusting into the molten
lava length of pipe screwed together,
into the end of which had been fitted
six Seeger cones, conical plugs of fu-
sible clay designed to melt at varying
To reach the living lava, Professor
Jaggar and his assistants had to
down go feet over the rim
of the pit, holding on the knife-edged
crags that had been thrown up by the
volcanoes activity. One Of the party
fell when near the bottom, but fortu-
nately regained his feet in time to
prevent rolling into a fissure where
he would have been consumed in an
instant.
Professor Jaggarj who is connected
with the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, has spent five years at
observing the phenomena of
the volcano for scientific purposes.
He takes daily, almost hourly obser-
vations, makes chemical analyses of
the lava, the gases arising from the
pit and is endeavoring to deduce from
MS studies general rules from which
10 predict volcanic activity and its in
fluences.
The city of Honolulu, the capital Of
The group, on the island Of Oahu is
about $50 miles distant from Kilauea
but there is a population of
nearly $4,000 persons on the island of
Hawaii, where the volcano is situated.

100000 RUSSIAN
WAR REFUGEES ARE
BEING CARED FOR

TOXIC, Jan. 5.-A report on the
condition of the Russian refugees is
given by Thomas w. Whittemore, Of
Boston, who has come to Japan for
supplies after long services in direct
ing the work of the American COM
mittee for the relief of Russian refu-
gees in Russia. The forced migration
of the people Of Little Russia into the
heart of the empire was described by
him as one of the greatest movements
of people in history. He said that the
names Of as many as 100000 refu-
gees were on the official list and al
though the Russian government is do
ing everything humanity possible to
ameliorate their condition much re-
mains to be done in the way of food,
clothing, medicine and shelter. Thou
sands died in the flight. Barely fed,
poorly clothed, masses were carried
away by contagious diseases and the
rest remained helpless, gathered in
barracks and other public places
vaguely and blindly waiting for food
and for occupation.
The Russian government has finally
distributed these refugees among diff
ferent parts of the empire, yet the
problem, Mr.. Whittemore said, was far
from settled. The great need was for
some form of organization which will
provide them with labor and the means
of living and while that economic ques-
ton is being worked out, food, cloth
ing and medicine are necessary. He
had come to Japan,he said, because
the lack of shipping space from the
United States made it practically i'm
possible to get the necessary supplies
from that country.
81, myself" said Mr., Whittemore,
"have seen a thousand people dying
from typhus. The religious fervor of
the Russian people is wonderful to be-
hold. Death does not appear to them
as a terrible or undesirable. All these
wonderful sacrifices of the people,
both military and civil, are offered to
Holy Russia. 1 have seen aged men
and women passing away on their mis-
cradle beds and 1 have seen their
friends gathered about the death
couch with joy on their faces and
happy words on their lips. $50 you
are going to dep they would exclaim.
How happy you must be. Now, you
will be sure to pray for US when you
pass away and we will be very happy
Cali that was to make the death of
the beloved ones happy and joyous, yet
when death came the rejoicing was
changed to lamentation. 1t is simply
- this comprehension of
death in Russia today. 1 have seen
simple peasant soldiers going forth to
battle. Friends would ask them where
they were going and they invariably
why, we are going forth
TO de- and then their people would
exclaim: Yes, they are going out to
iie.'
There are ikons and crosses every
where among these people Of faith.
They are borne constantly with them
as the ever present symbol Of this
Heath that is before them and the
happiness that is to come"
Local committees are aiding Mr..
to secure supplies here
needed for the relief Of the refugees.

 IRISH REGIMENT
 TOFRENCH FIELD
Colonel Hines, Now in Com mand of the Sixty-Ninth Regiment of New York, Well Known in Cochise County

Major Charlie Hines, formerly vice president of the Southern Pacific of Mexico. and of the Arizona Eastern railroads, is now the commander of the | fighting Irish regiment of New York, no other than the Sixty-ninth New York national guard, whose history runs back a bloc dtrack to the Civil war, through the Spanish war, and is now on the path to. the thick of the fray abroad
 On August 20, the regiment, with its Arizona commander, started on the first leg of its journey to the front. It will be one of the first of the national guard organizations to reach France and at its head will be a Tucson man. Every mother of the Irish lads of the Sixty-ninth was in the street last Monday when the regiment marched through on it's way to embark.
 Colonel Hines preceded the regi- ment to Mineola, Long Island, from which point the regiment took ship to France
 Before being designated to com mand the Sixty-ninth, Colonel Hines had command of trains and military police. of Major General O'Ryan's di- vision, which he organized. It was the first of its kind in the United States.
 In taking command of the Sixty ninth Colonel Hines has a command of which he had learned years ago from his father
 Colonel Hines expressed himself as more than pleased with his designa- tion--in fact, nothing could have hap pened in his life which would have pleased him more, according to reports from New York.
 My father" he said, was an off cer in the Fiftieth New York engin- eers in the Army of the Potomac and fought side by side with the Sixty ninth. Of all the stories my father told me, those that thrilled and impressed me most were his tales of the Fight ing Sixty-ninth.
 "In fact. was brought gp on these stories. A brotehr officer of mine in the Santiago campaign was the late Major Michael Emmett Urell. who was color bearer for the Sixty-ninth in the Civil war and won a medal of honor for gallant conduct. Through him I heard again my fathers stories. So you can see how I have been wrapped up in the tradition of the old organiza- ton and what a signal honor it is to me to be its commanding officer"
 Major Hines is a West Point grad, uate. He joined the Arizona Eastern and Southern Pacific of Mexico years ago and left Tucson to become first as- sistant to President Willard of the Baltimore and Ohio.
 From the railroad he entered the military field in New York at the out break of the war. He is well remem- bered in the state of Arizona

Gratitude of a French
 War Widow to America

A Kansas City man who is helping a French war widow support her lit tie girl received a letter the other day written by the mother on July 4 The occasion impelled her to write on the relations of France and the Unit. ed States. A translation of part of the letter follows:
 Sacred bonds united as before, and above years and differences we again tie sacred bonds. Our origins and our democratic beliefs are common, We believe deeply in the same things and want liberty for all men-the United States and France are the two great est democracies of the world; they are the two nations the best prepared to understand each other and to unite today; we enter into this new com. munion in the same faith and our hearts beat in unison.
 "But so many delicate generosities since the beginning of the war. the Americans have shown us their deep, their grateful friendship. This old friendship, at last renewed, we want to teach our children never to forget.
 'Henceforth we must walk hand in hand, heart to heart for the cause for which we are giving so much precious blood and for which America is pre- pared to give her blood. For this cause is not alone our cause, it is that of humanity.
 ''We want to teach our little French children to love, to admire and to be grateful to the noble American repub lie. My little girls have raised over the whole home their little American flags; they want to celebrate in their own way the day of independence They have also asked me to add to my letter with all their love this simple flower from them.
