He had ridileu, at 1111 easy trot, ti n miles when it began to grow dark, and noticing that the howling of wolves, which he had heard but not heoilt il, sounded nearer, he looked back.

The plantation ne groes had gone liack to work, and the morning and noon Is-lls rang as usual. On Wednesday night Dr. liell was called to a patient at Wallllsiu, three miles away, and much nearer the inoun tain. At first he hesitated to leave his family; but tin call was an urgent one. so he went, promising to be back next day. Karly on Thursday morning the chil dren jumped form their beds and ran out. as usual, to see the volcano. "Oh. mother!" cried Lyddy with delight, delight. '-Come iiiiii-k! It's too beauti ful!" It was a wonderful sight. The wim had wafted the smoke clouds from above them: the rising sun slmne 011 that giant mass, and from it turned I silver and tiurnle and gold; even the negroes stopped their work to gaze at it.

Mrs. Itell wn very nervous; the more so when a messenger came from her husband, saying lie would be detained all that day. There were explosions like thunder, that frightened the chil dren. Little Ruby began to cry, anil would hardly be comforted. Ily noon the rumbling noise grew and grew until it was a mighty roar. The ground began to li-einble, not with the ris king motion of an earthquake, but vibrating continually, as a railroad bridge does when a heavy train passes over It. The children, clinging to their mother, wat'-hed the smoke-column in nwe and wonder. It streamed Into the sky like molten pilch, tired now mid then by a flash of lightning, or a glow of flame from the crater. The roaring was so loud that at a little distance they i-oulil hardly hear one another speak. The negroes forsook their work lu ter ror; people hurried southward for refuge, women screamed, the dogs crept off to hiding-places, and cattle wandered moaning, halT-starved be cause all the gras was covered with ashes.
