BAD WORK OF VOLCANOES, What an Active Oae Can Do When Fully Aroused. The Philadelphia Press says: Few people in this country imagine what terrible work & volcano of the regula- tion size can do when {it once gets fully aroused. In 1838 Cotopaxl threw its flery rockets more than 3,000 feet above the crater and in 1887, when the blazing mass confined in the same mountain was struggling for an out- let, it roared so loud that the awful nolse was heard for a distance of 600 miles. 1m 1797 the crater of Tungu- ragua, one of the great peaks of the Andes, fluag out torrents of mud and lava which dammed up a great river, opened new lakes, besides making a deposit of seething mud, ashes and lava 600 feet deep over the whole area of a valley which was twenty miles long and averaged 1,000 feet in width. ‘I'he stream of lava which flowed from Vesuvius in 1837 and passed through the Valley of Terre del Greco is estimated to have con- tained 333,000,000 cubic feet of solid matter. In 1760 Xtina poured flood of melted stones and ashes which covered eighty-four square miles of tertile country to a depth of from ten to forty feet. On this occasion the sand, scoria, lava, etc., from the burn ing mountain formed Mount Rosini, a peak two miles in clircumferente and over 4,000 feet high. year 79 A.
