    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. D., the time of the de
struction of Pompeii, the scoria, ashes,
sand, and lava vomited forth
itself. waile in 1660 AEtna disgorged
over twenty times its (wn Dass
Vesuvius has sent its ashes into Syria,
Egypt, and Turkey. It hurled stoues
of 800 pounds weight to
distance of six Epglish miles, during
the eruption of 79 A. D.

taining over 100 cubic yards a dis
tance of nine and a half miles.

then wonders all the rest of the year that his

wonderful advantage of that semi-annual
