The Sudden appearance of oil in
such immense quantities i'll the re.
gions it could not have existed hut a
short time. has given rise to very
alarming theory, alarming to some
people, as to it's cause. The latest
and most feasible is, that the internal
fires of the earth known to exist are
making their way to the surface.
where, in accordance with the proph-
ecy, "the clements are to melt with
fervent heat" Tho caloric from these
subterrancan fires has just reached
the coal strata, and the oil which
forms the igneons portion of that
carbonate compound is driven from
it, and forced by superintendent
pressure to occupy assures and the
softer formations of the earth below.
until relieved by apertures from the
surface. Those living in the coal
regions and nearest uades, of course,
find oil first No wonder 80 much
is found in the neighborllood OF Pitts
