Captain W. O. Gates, corps of engineers,
stationed at Fort Iavenwortli. one of a
party of Americans who examined the
volcano Taal before the recent eruption,
gives an Illuminating description of the
crater and Ita surroundings In the Kansas
City Star. -.The volcano, he writes lies
about thirty mile south of Manila, on the)
emlllng Island of Luzon. When it Is spe
cially active; the smoke of the volcano can
be seen from the I.uneta Drive at Manila.
The natives say that the volcano was
iiiocii irm r
I once much greater than It Is now. The
geological formation of the country bears
nut thla theory. The volcano Itself Is an
Island from flV. .lh mile.' ea. ami!"""- ,lme remarks that "the old boy
west and ten to fifteen miles north and ! ' h'-- The natives of the South seas
south, rising out of the center of a lake, j h'd thp,r rlr ""d "nd hplr wrr otls
w hlch Is about twelve miles east and west hlch they fancied were at war constantly,
by fifteen mllea north ' and south. The)
lake lies In a ring of mountains as If It 'CLIMBED FROM GROUND UP
were, the floor of a crater. These moUn- g
tains start up gradually from the sfa level
and curve up In. a graceful awcep until
they are from 2.000 to 3.000 feet high and
then drop off almost sheer to the lake
which la almost at the sea level. As one
stands on the rim of the crater and looks
at th rim of mountains circling the lake,
they look exactly, like the rim of an
other crater. Thla rim 1 a little lower
on-the cast side of the lake and Is broken
at the outh side, where a small stream
runs out -from the lake to the bay of
Balayan.
Ita Dim Healnnlaas.
Evidently before the eye of man ever
gazed upon II, Taal was a towering giant
rising 10,000 or 15.000 feet above the se
and. sending out Ita fire and smoke and
ashes. The native ' tradition Is that the
lake was originally a crater ef fire with
wall many times higher than those that
now surround.lt.. One-day there came a
terrible eruption, the walls of the crater
aank and the sea rushed In and filled the
crater, forming the present lake. For many
years there wa no other eruption. In place
of the crater of fire there was a beautiful
lake that emitted loud rumblings, so that
the natives gave It the name of Bom-bom,
or Boom-boom, which Is still the native
name for both the lake and the volcano.
This was the condition In which the Span
ish found It. Where the little stream ran
out the Spanish built the towns of Taal
and I .emery. Taal was a port of call for
all Spanish galleons coming from Mexico.
A great church wa built at Taal for the
virgin of Caysaysay (pronounce It kay-al-sl)
which wa the special patron of the sailor
and ' Wa always saluted by the vessels
going to or from' the Islands on their long
voyages across the Pacific. But the giant
of tVie volcano was merely sleeping and
gathering strength for a mighty-struggle.
One morning when the priests were at mass
they heard reverberation like thunder, but
fancied It waa the salute of a passing ship
until It ,was , followed by a aerie of the
roost terrific earthquake. Then came the
great eruption,, one of the most terrible In
the history of 'the .volcano. The Spanish
record tell that for , three days the lamps
had to be lighted all day In Manila. When
the eruption was over, the present .volcano
had thrust its head a thousand feet above
the surface of the lake and a number of
lesser craters showed their heads above the
water "line. This, time the volcano had
changed to water volcano- and It w as thus
that the Americans found, ' when they took
the .islands.- The native-had built cttie
around the lake and the luxuriant vegeta
tion ha wiped out all traces of the terrible
eruption save here and there a bit of old
stone wall where some large building had
stood told of the giant's struggle. Thu
towa of Talisay was built at th very edge,
of the lake, as If In defiance of the terrible
power of the volcano. .
Th country around the lake waa the hot
bed and one of the last strongholds of the
insurgents. When the writer first saw the
volcano, there was a little gunboat which
fired on the Insurgent quarter.
V On the Road tn Taal.
. To reach the volcano one leaves Manila
and goes to the little town of Tanauan,
about ten mllea from the edge of the lake,
and drives over a miserable road to the
water' edge. The country Is a plateau
covered with orange groves and fields of
sugar can. To the east can be seen th
amok of th volcano rising above the rim
of the lake. About half a mile from the
lake the Toad twist dViwn a hill that drops
400 feet to. the surface of the water. From
the hills around ' the lake Is obtained a
view unsurpassed anywhere In the world.
The hill and mountain from th lake's
rim seem 1IU walla of living green. At
the bottom Is' a beautiful lake a blue as
the deep sea. Her and there schools of
flying fish leap from Its surface and rush
away from some hidden enemy. From the
very center of the lake rises the volcano.
Around it base a few hardy plants eke out
a struggle for existence and form a border
for the gray and yellow sides of tha vol
cano. Above the volcano a little cloud of
sulphurous steam hang lastly. Over all Is
a sky bluer than Italy's and filled with
great cloud masses such a' on never ob
serves save In th Islands of th South
seas.
; To reach -th volcano, on ha to rely
upon the natlv banca. which-1 merely
a dugout wlth outrigger of bamboo. The
roomings are generally calm and tha trip
is' mad over perfectly smooth water. Be
fore the mountain I reached tha smell of
sulphur become very., evident. (A thb
bancas run along the. side of the volcano
Island an occasional hard ' of goats and
aome native are seen on the Island. There
are or rather were about 300 of these
native who lived on th Island and fished
because It was -no man's land and they
did' not hav to be peon Ilk th natives
who lived on th shore. These natives
lived la dally danger of their lives tn order
that' they might b free. ..

It is a light blue In color and constantly

yellow crater sends waves of mud over Its

.all rises sheer SflO to WXt feet, and Is A
brilliantly colored as the walla of the small
I interior craters. Aa the wall swing around
j to the north side the colors change to yel-
I low and brown and gray.
The old Spanish trail leads Into the
northeast part of the crater, which Is the
nearest to being cool of any part. If one
Is of an adventurous turn he can go from
this trail to the very floor of the crater.
The proceeding Is dangerous as the floo'r

niu Facta About the Man Mho Haa
Become President of
ccl Troat.
So little known Is the name of James A.
Farrell outKlde of the steel trade that,
following the announcement of the selec
tion as president, every telephone at the
headquarters of thn Steel trust In New
York, was kept busy with Inquiries about'
him.
Mr. Farrell Is not yet 4S 'years old.
Thirty-two years ago he got his first
"Job" In the steel business.. Then he was
16. He said last night that at that age
he' had to quit acliool In his native town.
New Haven, and go to work to help his
father support the family. He obtained
employment Bt a wire mill In New Haven.
"I stayed there -nine years," he ald
lt night, "and worked with my mus
cle and head nil I could. I know I
look older than 48. but maybe that 'be
cause I have been fond of hard work all
my life.' It hasn't done me any harm that
Lean se or feel, even though my hair
and mustache are perfectly white.
"After I had worked In all grades of
the manufacturing service at New Haven
I got a little better position at P.Ittsburg.
I first went there to the Pittsburg Wire
company, where I remained six year,
finally becoming superintendent and general
manager of that concern In turn.
"I worked with my hands, though, at
first in Pittsburg. Just aa 1 had done nine
years In New Haven. Then I waa made
general superintendent of the Ollved Wire
company In Fittsburg. That position 1 held
three, years. . For a hort time I was con
nected with a teel plant in Beaver Fall,
near Ptttsburg. 1 . came to the United
States Steel corporation in 1903, and helped
organise the United Statea Steel Products
compan'. of which. I waa made president,
rYou mAV u th general gelling agency
of tne corporation. Essentially that is tho
function it perform.
At this point the remarkable man who
has leaped from puddler In a small steel
plant to president of the hugest thing of
the kind the world ha ever known became
silent. It. was only . under strong urging
that he could be. Induced to talk further
about himself. - He haa the modesty of a
country schoolboy. It waa after he broke
his silence that he declared he wa Simply
the product of the American steel industry.
and that every American boy ha the same
chance today to do what he haa done. Al
though hla height la six feet one Inch, hla
weight is only 220 pounds. There Is not
an ounce of superfluous flesh on his
athletic frame.
