EARTHQUAKE PERIOD PREDICTED.
AUCKLAND/ April 16.' Another earthquake period- is predicted by Mr J. F. Stevenson, F.R.A. S., of Auckland, who fixes the time as between the 18th inst (Sunday next) and the 24th inst: — "I expect greatly increased* activity during the next week," he said, and have very little doubt- but that iNgauhuhoc will be more active. If that volcano were nearer the sea 'coast I think there would be a <far bigger mi>heaval." Mr 'Stevenson was greatly interested in the eruption of Mount Erebus in the Antarctic as described by Professor David. It appears that the outbreak in question happened precisely at the time when the moon was nearest to the earth.
