Mont I'elee etAndt unique in the
history of volcanoes in more tbsn
oiis particular. A little over a
year ago, scientists who were study
ing il.in volcano discovered a pe
culiar tooth-like formation growing
out of the old cra'.er. Owing to
'.he quantity of vapor and smoke
which covered the mountain, this
formation was not observed until it
had groivn to a height of 295 feet
ibove the rim of the crater. The
lormation conlu not be mistaken
a cone, such as is commonly
formed in craters by the heaping
up of matter ejected from the vol
lano, since the sides were quite
uiiooth, and approximately verti
cal. It hd rather the appearance
,fa solid shaft of stone, and was
henco calied the "oblii-qu of Pelee."
From the time it was first discover
id it 6teadily increased in htight,
and when measured in the latter
part of Maich, 1903, it was esti
iiiutud to be 5,143 feet above the
level of the tea, or 1,109 ftt above
Mornc Lacroix, tut this did not
mark the maximum height, be
cause a petiod of heavy volcanic
explosions has reduced it some
what and caused its form to under
go many changes. Thus, during
the sprir-g and last summer it con
stantly altered in height and gen
eral appearance, sometimes rising
a uumber of yards, and then, fol
lowing a period cf explosions, be;
ing reduced again. From the lime
of its measurement in March, the
iossis exceeded the gains until it
anally disappeared within toe cone'
which had been formed about it.
This cone seems to be made up of
Uva and cjecta which had been
formed up from the vedta and of
masses which have been BhaUered-
dd fiQm the cbeiitk.
The peculiar j henom t na of the
obelitk have owtkencd great inter
jet. IIo.v such a huge tiiouuuient,
taller than the Effel Tower, could
bo formed on thJ lop of ft violently
.ictive volcano is a problem that is
not easy cf solution. As far as we
cau asceitain, only one plausible
theory has been advanced, and
that does not seem very credible ;
namoly, that the needle was form
ed of" molten lava duting seme
previous peiiod of activity, that
this lava solidified and formed a
plug which closed one of the pass
ages of the crater, and that now it
has been worked loose and forced
up by the recent renewed nctivitv.
