dry. On April Is, 1902, the seaward side of
the crater wall fell in, choking the vents
of the volcanic gases which had formerly
been free. In few days rumbling sounds
began and slight earth tremors were felt.
Z On May S the side of the crater toward
the city of St. Pierre opened and an
avalanche of boiling black mud poured
out in such volume that a great sugar
plantation and mill on the slope below
soon was buried. More than 80 persons
were caught and buried alive in it.
This outbreak, instead of relieving the
internal fire and incandescent gases to-
ward the vent. On the morning of May
there was terrific explosion and huge
rent was torn in that side of the mountain.
At first the explosion developed only
superheated steam, but second blast sent
a vast sheet of fame and cloud of incan-
descent particles of molten rock down on
St. Pierre. More than $4,000 persons were
killed. The only one left alive was a
negro in Jail. Several ships were anchored
in the harbor and all, excepting the Rod
dam, were destroyed. Every man on deck
of the Roddam was killed by the fame
blast.
Those who were below rushed on deck,
let go the cable and put to sea, where
they extinguished the blazing deck and
upper works, but most of the survivors
were badly burned.
Old St. Pierre was massively built, but
was swept away the same as chaf and
the entire town reduced to common level
of ruins. Irol lamposts were so softened
by the intense heat that the blast bent
them to the ground like willow twigs
without breaking.
The eruption continued for weeks and
the surrounding country was showered
with rocks and stones from the crater.-Ex.

EGYPT'S NEW STATUS

Although the political boundaries of
Egypt have not been altered as result
of the. late war,-her political status has
undergone an important change which,
together with the significant position she
occupies in the geographical distribution
of the British Empire, warrants the in
clusion of Egypt in the present series.
Before December, 1914, Egypt was a
province of the Ottoman Empire, and each
governor, to whom the title of Khedive
had been given since 1867, was appointed
by frman from the Porte. Abbas Hilmi
Pasha, the Khedive in 1914, favored the
Germans on the outbreak of war, and was
accordingly deposed.
A British Protectorate over Egypt was
declared on December 1S, 1914, and Hus-
sein Kamil Pasha, son of the former Khe-
dive Ismail Pasha, was declared the new
ruler with the title of Sultan of Egypt, is
the eldest living Prince of the family of
Muhammad Ali, founder of the dynasty.
Egypt" says Herodotus, lis the gift
of the Nile" Only the presence of the
life-giving Nile can explain why thin
wedge of fertility and dense population
has been driven through the most arid
and most terrible desert belt in the world.
The inhabited area of Egypt proper is
completely isolated on east and west by
desert, and cultivation and human settle
ment are limited entirely to the narrow
valley and the broad delta, save for
few outlying oases.
The fertility of Egypt depends upon ir-
rigation and the annual Nile food has
been anxiously awaited and joyously hailed
every year by the Egyptians since the be-
ginning of history. The Nile begins to
rise at Khartum about the middle of May,
and at Asswan about the 10th of June.
The green water which heralds the coming
food is seen at Cairo towards the end of
June. Later the rich silt brought down
on the food from the Abyssinian High
lands tints the river reddish color.
The cause of the Nile food is the heavy
rain in the Abyssinian Highlands, brought

DEVASTING POWER OF EARTH.
OUAKES AND VOLCANOES

In the region of the recent volcanic erup-
tions in Mexico, both Cordoba and Oroza-
ba, two beautiful cities, lie at the foot of
the great volcano and are ina position
inviting annihilation in case of violent
eruption. Mt. Orizaba has been on good
behavior since the middle of the Eighteenth
Century and has been regarded as virtual
ly extinct.
Earlier eruptions occurred in 1s4s and
1866, but these former disturbances did
not discourage settlement. Cordoba is the
center of rich agricultural district and
the city of Orizaba is busy industrial
town of nearly $4,000 population. 1t con-
tains a large cotton mill and the great
Santa Gertrudis jute mills, owned by Eng
lish capital. Water power developed by
the melting snow of the mountains sum-
init caused the development of these and
other industries. There are stone and mar
BILE quarries near the city.
There is no possibility of forecasting
the outcome of volcanic eruption when
vast mountain of the bulk of Mt. Oriza
ba opens up to relieve the internal pres
sure. A century or more of quiescence
tends to thicken the crust of solid matter
and to stop the natural vents.
Orizaba was named Citlatepeti or Star
Mountain by the ancient Mexicans.
One tradition surrounding this noun
tain is that the volcano for many years
maintained an outburst of flame from its
summit which, viewed from the great dis
tances, resembled star. Another tradi-
ton has it that the ancient Aztec priest
hood maintained temple and shrine far
up on the mountain in which the sacred
fire always was kept burning on an altar
and this, viewed from the valley far be-
low, resembled star
The base of Mt. Orizaba is about IS
miles in diameter east and west and more
than 50 miles north and south. This
vast bulk of earth crust piled $4,000 feet
high so near the sea can resist an enor-
nous internal pressure, but when that re-
sistance is overcome the consequences may
be disastrous to the surrounding country.
This recalls the violent eruption of Mt.
Pelee, Martinique, in 1902. AT the begin
ming of that year Pelee stood, huge cone,
5000 feet high, with crater half mile
in diameter and 1900 feet deep. 1t had
been in eruption in 1852 and slight erup-
ton had occurred in 1881. In the course
Of time small lake formed in the crater
and the volcano appeared extinct. About
1900 the lake began to disappear from the
crater and in 1902 it had become quite

U. s. Sculptor's Risen Christ is
 Talk of London

London, March 2O.s-Jacob Epstein, American sculptor, has set London talking by the exhibition of his statue of the Risen Christ.
 The Savior is represented by a more than life sized stone figure, bearing the wrappings of the tomb. The arms are free and the right hand is held upon level with the breast while the left hand points to the wound in the palm caused by q nail of the crucifixion.
 The body is slender and unaccen- tuated, and the effect of slimness is intensified by the long line of a portion of the grave clothes hanging from the right arm to the ground.
 The face is strange, grave and dignified, with small chin, high ridged but delicate nose and the suggestion of beard. The head is square and high poised strongly upon slim, straight neck.
 There is nothing of the conven- tional softness of feature so general in the Italian representation of the Christ.
 Every man has his own idea of Christ and 1 have tried to express my idea in stone," said the sculptor
 ''The head is not a racial head, t is neither Jewish or European. All the great Italian Christs had some thing of humanity in them, some thing universal. That is what \ have aimed at, to picture Christ first of all {. man.
