In a report Just' forwarded to
Washington from the field, Geologist
' * * ' JT 8. Diller suggests a. connection be*
- tween the Lassen Peak eruption and
4 * * the San Francisco 19IB Exposition.
Mr. Diller wan ordered to Tlstt the
? ?* T* ecene of roteanlc eruption and . his
detailed statement was madp public
by the Unfiled SUtes Oeologjrai Survey
yesterday. The. geologist points
out that Old Vulcan may be preparing
*? American -Vesuvius' ttor the
Panama Pacific Exposition. The Pa
clfic ocean Is girdled by voloanoes
and live ones are common in the Central
American countries' to which
Panama belongs. Mr. Diller reasons
thus: "So It is up to Vulcan to prepare
a nearby exhibit for the oocacasion,
and he evidently sees his
duty and Is rejuvenating the energy
of Lassen Peak as, a kind of volcanic
"f" " moving picture.
"Mount Ranlnler and Mount Shasta/
the beautiful cones so much in
evidence to the traveler on the Pa''
J* clfic coast north of San Francisco,
^ are now finding an up-to-date rival
In Lassen Peafk. which is plainly In
view from the railroad for many
miles in the Sacramento valley between
Redding and Red Bluff. Lassen.
Peak is the southern end of the
Cascade Range, and It stands between
the 8ierra Nevada on the south
east and the Kalmath Mountains on
the northwest. Its lavas erupted In
past ages reach the Sacramento Val- <
ley on the one side and on the other
form a part of the vast voloanlc field
one of the greatest in the world that
, stretches for across California, Oregon,
Washington and Idaho to the
Yellowstone National Park.
"Of all portions of the Cascado
Range Lassen Peak still retains the
largest remnant of its once vlgoroas
v volcanic energy., Morgan and Supipan
Hot Springs and Bumpass He!l
on the south as well as Hot Spring
Valley and the tolling mtzd-lake Tar?
.tarns on the southeast have long
attracted the attention not only of
? 9 Californfans but to some extent of
the tourists, to whom the region Is
growing more accessible every year.
If to these already established attractions
be added a frequent occurrence
of the reoent voloanlc play? of Lassen
Peak the region will take high
, . rank among nature's .wonderlands.
"But whet is the nature of this
' * new activity of Lassen? Tg it really
volcanic? Will it soon dwindle
and become wholly quiescent ot on
the other head la it the precursor of
a more profuond eruption-like that
of Kfiakatoa? The excellent photographs
that Wave been taken of the
LtfrV* outburst, especially those by G. F.
Mllfordand the series by B. F. Loomis,
of Viola, taken from a point 6
miles northwest of Lassen Peak,
leave little doubt in, the mind of any
ene familiar with the volcanic phenomena
that the outburst la essentially
volcanic. These photographs are
strikingly similar to those taken by
Johnston-Levis showing the progress
of an eruption in the Llparl j
Islands, whose volcanic character is!
well known.

What do they say now? l^ast

NEW THEATRE
The Oliver Jubilee Company that
opened at the New Theater last night
for the week was greeted with a good
bitcu buuicuvv iuii eujuyeu lue entire
performance. Among the sp>cial
features that was presented was
the singing of little Lillian Carter,
who won her way through the hearts
and applause of the audience by her
clever singing of the "Million Dol- <
lar Dull." The little miss has an
extra good voice, strong and sweet
and musical, and as ?he dosed her
singing, she made a great hit by
coming from the stage down among
the audience and selecting a gentleman
sitting near the aisle, and sang
to him, and then wafted a wIbp of a
kiss on the smooth face that smiled
up to. her own as the little singer
made her way back to the stage.
The Jokes were all good, many of
them making the audience laugh uproariously.
The quartet was especially
good with its grimace and dldoee
that brought down the house.
The voices were eyceptionally good.
Clog dancing and fancy steps entertained
the admiring spectators. The
interlocutor made a hit. He was
ttmely with his suggestions and his
repartee with the two end men kept
the crowd in laughter continuously.
The ballet dancing was a feature that
aroused considerable interest and
appiause. This troupe will give an
entire change of program tonight.
For tonight they will present the
"Imperial Vaudeville Company." In
which you will see Paul Francis and
Mura Neilson, "The Plant) itfid and .
the Soubrette" Dan Eley and Alma
LaChester in a comedy singing and
talking act, Billy and Dorothy Zeltler.
in a singing and dancing specialty.
Then last but not least little
Miss Lillian Carter, the wonderful
child artist. This splendid bill with
the excellent pictures that this house
started using last night should draw
the largest house that they have ever
had.

MCARRANZA
Mexico City, July 8.?The returns
of yesterday's elections were not obtainable
up to noon today. It was
iscertalned from official quarters bow
ever, that only 2 per cent of the population
had voted in the states controlled
by the government.
Saltlllo, Mexico, Via L.aredo, Tex.,
July 6.?The division of the north
Villa's army, has agreed to acknowledge
the authority of General Carranza
as "first chief" and General
Villa will remain commander of the
Division of the North as a result of
conferences in^ Torreon by represen- ' ?
tatlves of Villa and Carranza, according
to news received here.
The conference has but begun its
work, it was said the two points
agreed upon being the first presented
for consideration of the delegates ' '<
gathered in an attempt to deal with
the breach between their chiefs. That
these points were agreed upon with
such little delay has caused a feeling
here that other Bteps toward set- I
tllng the differences between Carran- _
za and Villa will be taken with fa- 1
cillty.
The points agreed upon represent
concessions by both sides. It was said,
VUlia. according to the news here,
will withdraw his resignation as
commander of the northern division
Carranza will withdraw the acceptance
of the resignation.
The division of the north. Including
i18 fifteen generals, will reaffirm
their loyalty to Carranza as "first
chief."
On board U. S. S. California. Mazatlan,
(By wireless via San Diego,
Cal.,)?Heavy artillery firing was
reported from Guaymas tonight. Reports
that the Constitutionalists
were preparing to take that town .9
have been current recently.
As a mark of courtesy the Federal
gunboat Guerrero dressed ship yester
day and JoJned the American warships
in firing the national salute.
Washington.?President Wilson
and memlbers of his cabinet were encouraged
today by indications of an I
early adjustment of differences between
the constitutionalist leaders.
Secretaries of the parley between
representatives of Carranza and Villa
declared they expected the meeting
would end today with satisfactory
results.
With the promised removal of
such a stumbling block, administration
officials and some of the revolutionary
agents in Washington saw
added cause for hope that Carransa
would send agents to confer wKh
Huerta's delegates over establishment
of a provisional government.
Developments in the election about
Mexico City yesterday In which Huerta
apparently was named for president,
and General Blanquet now secretary
of war, was elected vice-president,
anxiously were awaited here.
Some reports remained in circulation
to the effect that after Huerta had
obtained an almost unanimous "vote
of confidence" such as he was said
to have received he wouhf retire In H
favor of Pedro Lascurain, who In
turn would surrender the government
to a constitutionalist.
However, doubt that the Federal
dtetator would adopt such a course
was expressed la maay circles.
