Mobile, Ala., April ll-Thousands of persons have been killed and whole Indian villages swept away by the eruption of Chlrlqui Peak, near Rocas Del Toro, in Honduras, ac cording to the story of Capt. Olsvik, of the United Fruit steamer Fort Morgan, which arrived hore yester day. This is the first time this moun tain was ever known to be active. The flames shot very high and the smoke and ashes were blown far out to sea. The property loss Is reported to bo heavy. Capt. Olsvik, of the Fort Morgan, In describing the scene, says that it was the most terrifying imaginable. Tho sea was torn up and Islanders were up to their necks In water. lt ls reported that tho shock of eruption is being felt at Culebra Cut. Panania Canal, and men on tho Fort Morgan say that thc water In the cut, according to reports reaching Bocas, has risen two feet within the past few days. This is attributed, they say, to 'Hie volcanic, action. With regard to the eruption of Chirlqul Peak, Capt. Olsvik said: "Tho Fort Morgan was berthed at tho Almirante wharf, about 14 miles .from Bocas Del Toro, on the morn ing of April 5th, loading bananas, when about l o'clock the eastern sky blazed forth and a great rumbling was heard. Looking In that direc tion, I saw great volumes of fire shooting high. "The natives who had been load ing the ship all night, were terror stricken; some of the men fell on their knees and prayed. All work was suspended for several hours as tho people watched tho volcano. "I learned before leaving that the third of a row of mountain peaks, situated about, a milo from us, had burst Into llamo, or had turned Into a volcano. The peaks were south east of the Fort Morgan and are call ed the Chlrlqui. The peak that be came active was tho highest, of the number, Its height being estimated at 2,340 feet above sea lovol. "The base of the mountain and Its slopes aro Inhabited hy a number of Indian villagers, it ls supposed that these have been totally destroyed by tho lava."

FLOOD MOVES DOWN THE HIV KU Crisis Not Over, However-Levees Subjected to Terrific Strain. Vicksburg, Miss, April ll.-Dykes at raoBt of the menaced points In the Mississippi flood zone are holding strong against the rapidly descend ing tide. The water hero is 51.1 .feet this morning, a rise of six In-* ches during the past 24 hours. Tho rise at Natchez 1B slightly more. The Misslsslpi river's angry tor rent has temporarily halted Its work of devastation. Aside from a con tinuance of 'the break in a cut-off embankment above Natchez, Miss., no further crevasses wore reported last night along tho threatened stretches of dikes. Desplto this temporary abatement of the damage caused by tho torrents which sweep down tho valley, the crisis ls not past. As the tide con tinues southward, many points be tween Baton Rouge, Da., and Helena, Ark., must stand a terrific te3t. If they fail then hundreds of square miles in some of the world's richest agricultural? territory may be flooded, many bustling cities inundnted Bild life threatened. As the rise*of the flood continues from Arkansas City downward, tho stress of tho threatened embank ments has increased and anxiety grows among Hie myriad workers toiling to reinforce the dikes. Army engineers declaro they have the situ ation under control at Miller's Bend, the levee guarding Greenville and the Southern Delta's fertile acres. This point was regarded yesterday as one of the most menaced in the danger zone. The crest will not reach Greenville for three days or more. If the rise continues gradual, lt is believed the dikes can he sufficiently strengthen ed to contain the flood. Work of Rescue. Memphis, April ll.-Although wires aro down to a large part of the territory In northwestern Arkansas, Inundated yesterday, accounts re ceived by boat are reassuring. A tug went to the aid of R. H. Campbell and his launch "Good News," taking a supply of gasolene, food and bedding. Other boats fol lowed to render further assistance to refugees at Edmondson and Kate, Ark., and other small towns nearby. Work of rescuing about 200 men who were left on knolls, house tops and in trees when their womenfolk were taken 'to safety in Campbell's ] launch, ls being continued, and It ls now believed all will be brought safely out of the flooded district.% Advices fioni tho Reel Foot Dake district continued to bo reassuring. Work of relief has been thoroughly systematized and few persons aro be lieved to remain in danger or In want. Boats patrolling thc section near Wyanoke, Ark., to-day return ed with the news that no moro refu gees were to be found. Those brought to Memphis aro being cared for.

Daring Jumpor a Parachute Opened Just Before He Hit Flag l'ole. New York, April ll.-Wall street was startled yesterday by the thrill ing leap of 'Frank. Law, a parachute jumper, who descended in his para- j chute-from tho Banker's Trust build ing to the roof of the sulMreasury, a distanco of 500 feet, landing prac tically unhurt. This la^st exploit of Law, who has been jumping from all the tall build ings he can find, narrowly missed ending in a tragedy. His parachute was slow in opening, and he was almost impaled on the flagstaff of ?the sub-treasury building. Only a quick kick, changing the course of the hugo umbrella, saved him. As It was his parachute hit the flag pole a glancing blow. This caused the parachute to tilt slightly, and it was : barely righted when tho juniper landed on the roof of tho building. , Daw was momentarily stunned, but Jinn ped to his feet and waved to ittfe crowds in the street below, j /tLaw recently jumped from the ??rjt?h of tho statue of liberty with a ?', /u'Vh?tC. Endeavoring!'to win a $?,o6o bet that he would climb up the side to tho top of a 16-story building in New York and then jump from tho top in a parachute, ho got as far ns the fourth story when he was espied by a vigilant New York policeman, who rushed up the stairs to a window on the fifth floor and compelled the nervy climber to come Inside. Law declares that he will yet accomplish tho feat, and because of the added obstacle of tho police pre venting him the man with whom he has made the hot has raised the odds, making the bet $1.500 to $1,000. It. G. Collins, postmaster at Barne gat, N. J., advises his friends: "I lind your Foley's Honey and Tar Compound tho liest remedy for a cough I ever tried. I had a la grippe eought that left me completey ex hausted, hut after taking half a bot tle of Foley's Honey and Tar Com pound the coughing spells entirely ceased. I wish to say lt can't he boat." J.
