HAWAIIAN VOLCANO ACTIVE

Hilo, Island Of Hawaii, T. H., Oct.
12.-The great volcano of Kilauea,
on this island, which.has been dorEsant
temporarily following sensational
explosive eruption in March 1921, has
resumed activity, according to T. A..
Jaggar, government volcanologist.
whose observatory is at the brink Of
the volcanoes abyss.
Starting with the formation Of a
glowing cone 600 feet down within the
walls Of the crater, stream of molten
lava has been pouring steadily into
the depths below, while more recent
flow has occurred in the form of an
uprush of gaseous lava, which vio-
lently agitated the lake formed by the
upper cascade.
! Within ten days the lava arose from
200 feet within the inner throat Of the
crater and is rising at the rate Of about
five feet day. DR.. Jaggar anticipates.
that the liquid lava will increase great
ly as the December solstice approach
es, while from other indications, there
appears to be a strong possibility Of an
outbreak of Mauna Loa, 1900 foot
high, snow-crowned neighbor of Kill
Iauet. Mauna Loa, the greatest active
volcano in the world, also is the largest
island mountain mass in the universe.
