MOUNT RUAPEHU STILL ACTIVE.
By Telegraph— Association. AUCKLAND, April 22. The Taupo correspondent of the Star, telegraphing to-day, states that Mount Ruapehu is not visible now, through heavy clouds which are completely blocking the view, but it is evident that the lake in the crater has been in active eruption, covering all sides with a heavy coating of bluish grey mud and ash. A lai'ge avalanche of ice from the glaciers has been tumbling down the mountain sides with a great noise, and the ice on the glaciers is much broken about, evidently through the shaking of the mountain during its period of eruption. There has been a great deal of activity lately in the springs x-ound Tokaanu, and the new geyser is giving splendid displays daily.
