HILO. Island of Hawaii, T. H., May
SI. (By the Associated Press.)
Earthquakes which shook the vol
canic area of Kilauea, 30 miles from
this city, are responsible for the
present great activity in normally
dead craters in that section, in the
opinion of Prof, ffhomas Jaggar Jr.,
In charge of Kilauea observatory.
The craters of Makaopuhi and Na
pua, which burst into sudden eruption
a few days ago, are more quiet today
but lava streams 15 feet across con
tinue to pour into them.
Spectacular Sight Presented.
Halemaumau, the "house of ever
lasting fire" of Kilauea, the perpe
tually active crater, is dead so far as
visible activity is concerned follow
ing the drop of the lava lake from
its position CO feet from the crater
rim to 900 feet below that point. Al
though the molten surface had fallen,
the top of the fire pit still presents
a spectacular sight with crags col
lapsing and dropping into the abyss.
Professor Jaggar believes that the
lava will find a way to sea by under
ground passages instead of along the
surface as was the case during the
flow to Alika in 1919.
- Sulphur Clouds Vomited.
Along the subterranean pathway of
the molten stream cracks in the sur
face are vomiting sulphur steam
clouds as the channels opened by the
earthquake carry the boiling con
tents of Halemaumau to the formerly
iilent craters of Makaopuhi and Napua.

FAMOUS ""MOUNTIES," FAMILIAR. TO PORTLAXIJERS DIJRXNG PAST ROSK FESTIVALS.
VANCOUVER, B. C, May 31. Portlands perhaps may recognize some of these members of the
Canadian mounted police es having been, her during past Rose Festivals. Just at present they are engaged
In watching the Canadian-United States border to prevent whisky runners from rushing1 their cargo-es of
liquor over the line into thirsty Washington. Besides putting a check on liquor smuggling, these famous
troopers have a record of going after and getting "bad men" of the Canadian northwest.
"Get your man" is their slogan, and "orders is orders" with them. The red-coated mounties are famous
for their riding. Recruit and horse are trained at the same time and at the end of three months the
trooper must have a tractable animal which will not only "stand without hitching," but will lay down at
the word of command and perform other "circus" stunts. ,
In the photo above is shown the riding master of the royal northwest mounted police, with his trick
horse, "Blackie," who can do everything except swear. ?-
SPECTACULAR OUTBURST SEEN
Hawaiian Volcano Rouses From
Slumber of 82 Years.
HONOLULU, May 30. (By the As
sociated Press.) The unusual vol
canic activity In the region of Kilauea
in the island of Hawaii, which yes
terday stirred long dormant craters
to fresh activity, continued today to
manifest itself in eruptions from
other pits In that area. The old cra
ters of Napua and Panua are erupt
ing steam and smoke and emitting a
:iisslng sound as the lava rlses against
the walls of the pits, burning the
regetation that has grown there in
the years since their last activity.
The inner walls of the craters today
were masses of flame.
Napua and Panua are four and
i hee miles, respectively, from the old
rater of Makaopuhi, which yester
day roused itself from 82 years of
lumber in a spectacular outburst.
Today the lava flow had broken out
n a series of molten fountains from
he walls of the crater, nine of which
arere pouring fiery sprays into the
Jld pit.
The activity of Panua pit Is said
-to resembls the disturbance of 1919,
when a stream of lava plunged down
the side of the cone and continued
Cor a distance of about three miles
to the sea.
The ancient craters of Puuhuluhulu
and Alea are also showing signs of
activity, according to Professor
Thomas A. Jaggar, director of the
United States volcano observatory on
the island of Hawaii. Although the
ictivity of surrounding craters has
lowered the level in the great Kilauea
volcano. Professor Jaggar believes
:his effect will not be permanent

Secretary Churchill, in the course of
the debate following his statement,
reiterated that Great Britain would
. ot tolerate the establishment of
republic in Ireland. He said the
."ritish troops remaining in Dublin
ere secure and were awaiting
vventualities.
Dublin to Be Held.
"In the event the republic is set

le British government to hold Dublin
one of the preliminary and es
..jntial steps of military operations.
"I must now in fairness," continued
ie secretary, "set forth the reason

ish provisional government (Collins
r uction) to enter this compact, which

-If that is true it is a very terrible
reflection upon the Irish people and

"The second reason advanced was
ihat the progress of disorder, law

provisional government could not pos

violent republican minority.

'iplying these, were a large number
f common, sordid ruffians and
'jrtgands. raiding, murdering and
pillaging for personal gain or private
-.evenge."
These bandits pursued their disln
lexested course under the glamor; of
the republic and were inextricablyin
termingled with the bona fide repub
lican visionaries. The provisional
government they found themselves
unable to deal with these bandits
while at the same time they were en
gaged in an armed struggle with
bona fide republicans. They declared
the agreement which they entered
into with republicans would isolate
the brigands and enable them to be
struck at and suppressed, and that a
greater measure of liberty and se
curity would immediately be re
stored, and that such conditions were
indispensable preliminary to any free
expression of the national will of the
Irish people to which they looked for
ward at an early date.
Murders Are Expected.
"They further said ' it was in the
power of the minority in Ireland by
murdering British soldiers and ex-
soldiers, retired rich men or Protes
tants in the south or by disturbing
Ulster; to produce a series of episodes
which if prolonged, would destroy the
relationship between Great Britain
and Ireland and render the carrying
out of the treaty impossible ontboth
sides." -
Mr. Churchill said he was bound to
say there might be great torce in
that and on these grounds the pro
visional government declared it felt
compelled to enter the compact. He
was not concealing from the house
the grave possibilities of the fatal
disadvantages of such a step, he said.
. The secretary said it must be ad
mitted that the disturbances in Ulster
for many months had undoubtedly
played a part in making the position
of the provisional government in Ire
land difficult by exasperating the
Catholic majority in southern Ireland
and increasing the number of Mr.
de Valera's supporters. .
"Mr. de Valera has been fully aware
of this," said Mr. Churchill, "and one
of his surest means of striking against
the provisional government and the
treaty has been the exciting of out
rages in the northern area ana so
provoking counter action which
would be sure to raise passions in
the south."
Good Faith Supported.
Mr. Churchill said he did not be

had done her part, and he did not
believe her act of faith would be
brought to mockery by the Irish peo
ple. He concluded with an appeal
that the British government continue
to do its part and not be led "by im
patience, prejudice and anxiety into
course which would lay ltseir open
to charges of fickleness or levity."
Later on in tne aeDate, in wnicn

Sensation in Sis City and

MEDFORD. Or., May 31. (Special.)
Beyond his formal letter of reply to
Governor Olcott, sent out today, C. E.
Gates, mayor, had no public state
ment to make relative to the gover
nor's edict dismissing him as a mem
ber of the state fair board, effective
tomorrow
Mayor Gates wrote the governor as
follows: -
Tour letter of May 29 received and I
assure you it was no surprise to me. I
accept it with the realization that politics
makes queer creatures out of the best of
men. I sincerely hope you "Will not be
disaDDOlnted in the additional support you
expect to gain by th's act. I shall never
forget, at least, the many compliments you
paid me for valuable services rendered
during; the holding of the last fair, while
now I am dismissed "for the good of the
service.
The mayor has been an active mem
ber of the board and is chairman of a
number of its important committees.
In fact, contracts and other important
business relating to the coming state
fair are on his desk awaiting his sig
nature and approval, and he had to
hurry this state business out of the
way.
The news of the mayor's dismissal
created a sensation in Medford and
Jackson county, and was a sheer sur
prise locally to all but the mayor
himself, as he had been half expecting
some such move by the governor in
view of the latter's decided stand
against the Ku Klux Klan and the
mayor's own connection with the local
klan.
The mayor received the news with
good grace and discussed the gover
nor's action without rancor with
friends today.

a grower who has large acreages

unless rain, falls soon some of the

The thermometer, registering 100 de1

o'clock, has "smashed" all previous
records for the month of May. The
temperature around 90 degrees on

this section for today's heat, so that
no great surprise was expressed that
ths mercury had climbed to a record

of O. W. Berg of Canby, which is situ

of 90 on Tuesday and slightly above

Similar conditions were reported
