Scientific paper

ON January 7 I had the good fortune to witness one phase of a minor eruption of Vesuvius in the company of Prof. Malladra, the distinguished director of the Vesuvian Observatory, and I shall be grateful if you will allow me the hospitality of your columns to direct the attention of all our younger geologists and mineralogists to the exceptionally favourable opportunities now presented by the mountain for the study of volcanic phenomena. The great crater left after the violent eruption of 1906 has been gradually filling up, and its floor is now within some 250 feet of the rim. On this floor stands an eruptive conelet, the apex of which is not far below the level of the rim of the 1906 crater, from which its explosions and ejections can be well observed.
