Volcano on Kamchatka Hurls Rocks
Larger Than Ships Through
the Air—Has 65 Volcanoes,
20 cf Which Are Active.
Tokyo.—Showers of rocks larger
than ships were hurled from a raging
volcano on Kamchatka, where a ter­
rible- ami magnificent volcanic phe­
nomenon occurred some weeks ago. re­
calling the primitive days of the for­
mation of the earth.
After having been wrecked and
washed away on the shore of Kam­
chatka, Frederick McCormick, a well-
known newspaper correspondent, wit­
nessed the extraordinary eruption.
Writes of Spectacle.
In a report to the Japan Advertiser,
Mr. McCormick say s:
“On arriving at Hakodate, in north­
ern Japan, I heard from a fisherman
of an earthquake above Hokkaido,
and the disappearance in the sea,
September 6, of a part of the island
of the Kurile group. The earthquake-
extended from Hokkaido to the Aleu­
tians, and was but a prolongation of
the seismatlc phenomena occurring in
Kamchatka, where I was wrecked on
the Kronotsky peninsula. Ten days
later, sixty sea miles to the south, I
found myself at Semlschik. From there
I saw the magnificent eruption of
volcano Karimskaya. Above a moun­
tain ridge which lay between we could
see, without the aid of glasses, the
expulsion of showers of rocks, many
of which must have been larger than
ships, as they flew through the sky
in giant parabolas. Only the flowery
crest of the eruption was visible to
us as it played against the sky. The
smoke column, tilted southward by
the wind, reached upwards thousands
of feet, and in two "days the smoke
cloud extended 100 miles down the
coast and out to sea.
Sprinkled With Dust
“Then the wind shifted to the west
und the ship was sprinkled with vol­
canic dust. There was a great roar
like the sound of an artillery battle,
and it was reported that the water
of Kronotsky bay had risen in tempera­
ture 5% degrees, while magnetic dis­
turbances rendered the ship’s compass
unworkable. Fearing a subterranean,
sea-wave we put out forty-five miles
off the shore, and on September 5,
recorded a violent earthquake which
shook the ship. Tiie same was ex­
perienced at the Coinmandorsky is­
lands and Ust Kamchatka.
“There are few places where the di­
rect and positive force of nature can
be realized so intensely as in this far­
away* land.
“There are about sixty-five volcanoes
in Kamchatka, of which twenty are
active. There is no historian to record
their great doings, except an as­
tonished fisherman, 1,000 to 1.200 miles
away. A geographical expedition from
Sweden Intends to announce next year
the results of its scientific work in
Kamchatka.”
One of the most eloquent speak-;
ers on the American lecture p la t-;
form has been procured by local cit-1
izens to lecture in the Lyric theatre, j
in Ashland.
A. H. MacMillan of I
New York City is the speaker, and
his topic will be, “God’s Kingdom i
Im m inent.”
Mr. MacMillian is almost as well
known in Europe and Canada as he
is in this country, and, since th e !
war clbsed, he lias made several
tours of G reat Britain, France, Bel­
gium and Scandinavia. While lectur­
ing in the large cities of these coun­
tries lie made a close study of E uro­
pean conditions. His investigations!
and observations have brought him]
to the conclusion, it is stated, that I
there is no relief in sight for suf­
fering hum anity, so far as human
agencies are concerned.
C onditions F oretold
In the lecture here the evening of
January 25, it will be pointed out, it
is said, th a t the very conditions
which exist in the world today were
foretold by Jesus nearly two thous­
and years ago and these, in con-]
junction with the terrible events of]
the past five years, are signs which j
Jesus gave to mark his presence and]
the end of the “ w orld” (or social!
and political order) and the usher-]
ing in of a new “ w orld” wherein
dwelleth righteousness.” W hile m an­
kind has looked forw ard to the end
of the world with fear and forebod­
ing, Mr. MacMillan, it is stated, will
prove to the satisfaction of anyone
who believes in the Bible th a t the
end of the world is the best thing
that could ever happen; th a t instead
of it m arking the destruction of this
planet, it merely m arks the time
when m ankind will begin to enjoy
the blessings which God has de­
signed to give them on the earth.
The lecturer asserts, furtherm ore,
th a t there are many people living
today, who, when learning of the
requirem ents of the new age, will
not need to go down into the grave,
but will live forever.
No auditorium s were found ade­
quate to hold the crowds which
came to hear Mr. MacMillan in E u­
rope. In some places thousands of
people would wait outside the hall
until the lecture had been delivered
once, then immediately the first au­
dience had dispersed, the hall would
be refilled.
The lecture will be delivered at ]
7:30 p. m. No admission will b e 1
charged and no collection lifted. The]
invitation com m ittee urge those who
intend to hear the lecture to g o !
early.
