Volcanoes in a Lake.
Arizona Republican,
Squire Redwine, who litis been
in Phoenix for several days, yesterday
described a smoking lake
not fur from the country where he
lives. The lake is about 4.J miles
from the town of Imperial and
21 miles south of Mexico. It lies
within the Cocopah country at the
base of the mountains, even below
the foothills, but it has not been
iheie very long. It is on the Mexican
side of the line. It used to
be in California and was supplied
with water by the Chiuo river, but
the Mexicans dammed that stream
and the water was turned into Cocopah
river, which feeds the new
lake nud does little else.
Within the boundaries of the
new lake there has been for several
years what the Indians believed
to be a volcano. Smoke
was almost constantly rising from
the ground, but. there had been no
other sign of an eruption. The
water of the lake now covers the
volcano to a depth of five or ten
feet. Ever since the water has
l>een there there has been trouble
and it is getting worse every day.
The Indians have moved from that
neighborhood and the whites in
the settlement 20 miles north are
thinking of moving. The lake is
about H miles long, but not of
great width.
At first the disturbance was confined
to that part of the water in
the vicinity of the volcano, but
now the water is boiling over a
a considerable part of its area and
explosions are growing more and
more frequent. People living in
the neighborhood of Toxico arc
often awakened by them in the
flight t ime. Eruptions are going
on all the time, but they are generally
of sufilcieiit. force only to
throw ui) water a few feet. That
makes no noise that can be heard
at any great distance. Hut occasionally

feet. Whenever this happens the
noise can ho heard mid a Ha me can
be Been for miles, Such eruptions
frightened the Indians away.
There arc Imats on the lake and
parties have started out to the volcano,
but they have always turned
back without completing the investigation.
One party which came
back reported seeing an area of
mud furty feet square thrown fifty
feet into the air. The level of this
lake is severnl feet below sea level.
The whole Cocopah country has
been a volcanic region. The side
of the mountains and the country
for a considerable distance around
are covered with sulphur. Within
the memory of some of the older
residents of Arizona one of the
volcanoes in the mountain range
was active.

The height of the flood in the
Mississippi river was reached Monday
south of Keokuk, Iowa. The
river fell an inch and a half at
Keokuk that day and tho fall
reached southern points Tuesday.
But the rise of a foot more in tho
vicinity of Canton, Quincy, La
Grange and Hannibal carried the
water over thousands of acres previously
uninjured. The highest
water was between La Grange and
(Gregory, where the water on Sunday
was well below the rails of the
St. Louis, Keokuk & Northwestern
Rnilway on the bank of the river.
Monday a flood was pouring over

The river was full of debris,
