KILAUEA VOLCANO
IS IN ERUPTION
Natives Make Offerings to God
dess Pele for Safety

Hilo, Hawaii, July 8 R-Hale-
maumau, Pit of Everlasting Fire.
on the slope of Kilauea, one Of the
worlds largest volcanoes, seethed
today with fire as its latest out
burst flooded the entire bottom of
its eight mile around crater with
molten lava.
Three fountains of fire are spurt-
ing up through the boiling liquid
rock.
Arousing itself from long
sumber with warning earthquake,
the volcano began its activity early
yesterday. Thirty minutes after the
quake, the flow of lava started with
a roar.
Pele. the goddess of Halemaumau,
is pledged, according to native my
theology. never to send a lava flow
across Hilo. and the natives cast
many offerings into the pit to re-
mind her Of her promise. From
their places Of observation under
the tree ferns back from the bar
rem edge Of the pit they advanced
to hurl food and ohelo berries into
the molten flow.
Throughout the day terrific hot
blasts carrying sulphur fumes
drove spectators from the edge Of
the pit.
The coincidence OF the absence
of DR.. Thomas A. Jaggar. noted
volcanologist. who has devoted
much OF his life to studying Kill
auea's moods, at this eruption, was
regarded by the natives as signifi-
cant. Pele. they say, likes DR.. Jag
gar and keeps Halemaumau quiet
as long as he remains at Volcano
house. the observatory on the
mountain. The eruption. they de-
clare, is Pele's sign that she wishes
him to come back from Alaska.
where he was sent last April.
DR.. Jaggar was in New York in
1924 when Pele unleashed her VOL
vano and at the last previous out
break. in 1925. was in the Orier'.
Several times in recent years
Halemaumau has shot out streams
of molten rock. once sending forth
flow which carried whole forests
on its back. igniting them ana
holding them like great torches as
it rolled toward the sea.
The chief eruptions In the last
ten years took place In 1917, 1919
and 1921.
