HAWAII’S VOLCANO ERUPTS
ACCORDING TU PREDICTION
HONOLULU, Hawaii, U. S. A.—Ex
actly In acoordunce to predictions by
Prof. T. A. Jugger, the vocanologlst
who has been studying the fires In the
active Volcano of Kilauea, on the Isl
and of Hawaii, for several years, an
eruption upon the mountain of Mauna
Loa, on the same Island, look place
some weeks ago. Several streams of
lava flowed down through desert
lands towards the sea. Prof. Jaggar
predicted this outbreak two years ago,
almost to the month.
This Is one of the first results of
the benefits of the scientific study of
volcanos inaugurated by the Kilauea
Volcano Research Society of Hono
lulu, which brought Prof. Jagger from
Massachusetts to Hawaii to make
these studies. Prof. Jaggar and oth
ers interested in volcanology have h ul
introduced in Congress a bill to set
ankle Kilauea and adjacent country
as a national park, to be on a pur
with Yosenillc and Yellowstone Parks.
In Hawaii no one fears volcanic erup
tiers, as they nr© dlamotrloaily dif
lercnt from the terrific outbreak^ of
Vesuvius and Etna. The Inhabitants
nuh to the scene of activity and
vatch the lava flow slowly down a
mountain side. The Islanders are
eager to spread the Information to |
.he world that they have an active
volcano -or sametimes two which ;
they state are perfectly safe In cap- ;
tivlty. Thay are reached by motor
cars from the seaport city of Hilo in
, bout '.wo hours.
