中美洲加勒比海上有一个小安的列斯群岛,法属马提尼克岛是其中最大的一个岛屿,1902年4月,该岛西北端的培雷火山,在多年沉默之后,又突然活跃起来。5月2日、3日,火山爆发,喷射出大量炽热的泥浆和岩浆,喷到附近十几里的河谷,逼近火山山脚下的港口城市圣皮埃尔。火山熔岩把离圣皮埃尔市两里的一座糖厂卷走,只剩下一个大烟囱。厂里150名工人全部遭难。当火红的岩浆流到海边时,海水发出吱吱声,退到离陆地50米远的地方,然后又卷起巨浪,朝岸边反扑过来,打翻了许多渔船。市民们纷纷逃往南面12里的法兰西堡。以后几天里,火山口上的火舌和黑烟突然逐渐地消失了,大地也停止了颤动,仿佛什么事也没有发生过,一切恢复了正常。市长按照当地

Volcanic lava swept away from a sugar factory two miles from Saint-Pierre, leaving only a large chimney. 150 workers in the factory were all victims. When the fiery magma flowed to the sea, the sea squeaked and retreated 50 meters from the land, then curled up again and waved towards the shore, knocking many fishing boats. Citizens flee to Fort-de-France in the south 12. In a few days, the flames and black smoke on the crater suddenly and gradually disappeared, and the earth stopped quivering as if nothing had happened and everything was back to normal.
