In the first place, volcanoes are not necessarily mountains. In reality they are just the reverse—that is, holes in the earth’s crust. Out of these are thrown the materials which, accumu lating, form the heaps which we popu larly call mountains. These are, then, the result and not the .cause of the action. Neither are they “burning,’’ as we understand the term. There Is no combustion, nor any action we might reasonably call “burn ing.” The action need hot necessarily take place at the summit, for eruptions are just as frequent at the sidqs or. even at the base. The killing grew out of a. two days’ feud between httsbhnd and wife and the son killed his father to protect his mother. The second son arrived on the scene in time to see his father’s throat cut. threatened by his brother and he left while his fath er’s slayer was firing a gun at him. The murderer made good his es cape. \ The younger brother fears his brother-in-law* who went with him, has lost his life, too, as his father’s murderer said as he fled that he would kill him so there would be no one to tell ; any tale.

In the “Reminiscences and Recollec tions of Captain Grownow” (who was himself a famous dandy) occurs the following annecdote of Bean Brum- mel, the time being 1815. The dandy’s dress consisted of a blue coat, with brass buttons, leather breeches and top boots, and It was the fashion to wear a deep, stiff white cravat, which prevented you from seeing your boots while standing. All the world watched Brummel to imitate him, and order their clothes of the tradesman who dressed that sub lime dandy. One day a youthful beau approached Brummel and said: “Permit me to ask yon where you get your blacking?” Ah!” replied Brumme^ gazing com placently at his boots, “my blacking positively ruins me.
