ThirtyHfive years ago I was out prospecting on the 1tanislaus, tramping all day long with

pick and pan and horn, and washing a hatful of dirt here and there, always e$pecting to make arich strike, and never doing it. It was a lovely region, woodsy, balmy, delicious, and had once been populous, long years before, but now the people had /anished and the charming paradisewas a solitude.

They went away when the surface diggings gave out. In one place, where a busy little citywith banks and newspapers and fire companies and a mayor and aldermen had been, was nothing but a wide e$panse of emerald turf, with not even the faintest sign that human life had ever been present there. This was down toward Tuttle town.

In the country neighborhood thereabouts, along the dusty roads, one found at intervals the prettiest little cottage homes, snug and coy, and so cobwebbed with vines snowed thick withroses that the doors and windows were wholly hidden from sightHHsign that these were deserted

homes, forsaken years ago by defeated and disappointed families who could neither sell them nor give them away. Now and then, half an hour apart, one came across solitary log cabins of theearliest mining days, built by the first goldHminers, the predecessors of the cottageHbuilders. Insome few cases these cabins were still occupiedO and when this was so, you could depend upon itthat the occupant was the very pioneer who had built the cabinO and you could depend on another thing, tooHHthat he was there because he had once had his opportunity to go home to the rich1tates, and had not done itO had rather lost his wealth, and had then in his humiliation resolved tosever all communication with his home relatives and friends, and be to them thenceforth as onedead.

There are many different types of volcanic eruptions. *ifferent types of eruptions tend toform different types of volcanoes. 8ost volcanic eruptions are Jbuilders,J adding thin layers of lava or ash to the sides of a volcano, slowly building the easily recognied coneHshapedvolcanoes seen around the world. 1ome eruptions, however, are JdestructorsJ knocking off piecesof a volcanos summit or even destroying the entire mountain. &enerally, smallHtoHmediumeruptions build volcanoes, and large e$plosive eruptions tend to destroy them. +ets look atsimple animations of some of the different types of eruptions.

The first animation shows a JbuildingJ or constructive eruption of a typical strato8/olano like 8ount Bainier or Gu:iyama. The volcano itself consists of a pile of successive layers

of ash and lava resting on a preHe$isting surface. Prior to the surface eruption, a new mass of lava has surged into the established vent system deep under the mountain . Inflation of themountain is negligible because the amount of fresh lava is small.

The eruption begins with the invasion of the fresh lava along the old eruption channelleading to the summit vent. In this case, the first stage of the eruption begins with a mildlye$plosive fire fountain of fragmented liquid rock. The hot particles blast out of the vent, but sincethe gas content is low, the particles almost immediately begin to fall back under the influence of gravity. The particles coat the sides of the cone and build up a new layer of ash. In this case, thelayer is thick enough to flow slightly after landing, engulfing some of the neighboring vegetation. Ne$t, there is a short break in activity, during which the ash layer cools.

*eath penalty still becomes a controversial issue in the C1. The American (ivil +ibertiesCnion believes the death penalty inherently violates the constitutional ban against cruel andunusual punishment and the guarantees of due process of law and of equal protection under thelaw. Those who are against the capital punishment also state that it is an intolerable denial of civilliberties, and is inconsistent with the fundamental values of our democratic system.

#owever, there is a difference between murder and e$ecution. The distinction is that the firstis unlawful and undeserved, the second is a lawful and deserved punishment for an unlawful act."y ommitting the crime, the criminal volunteered to assume the risk of receiving a legal punishment that he could have avoided by not committing the crime. The punishment he suffers

is the punishment he voluntarily risked suffering and, therefore, it is no more un:ust to him thanany other event for which one knowingly volunteers to assume the risk. 3ur resolve to end crime is only as strong as the laws we pass to punish criminals.
