~ LUAINOlo
of New Haven, argues that from the
well known fact that heat increases at
the rate of q degree in every sixty feet,
progressing towards the center Of the
earth, that the whole vast interior is
certainly a mass Of secthing molten
LIQUID, in comparison with which
the outside crust of the earth is q mere
she'll, and speaks Of the eruptions of
volcanoes and other commissions Of ma
ture in support Of his theory. The Pro-
fessor thinks nov that these great vol
eanic e%ruplions are caused by wnter
getting into that central FIRE, where,
having been converted into steam by
the heat, it exerts n most enormous
pressure on the earth's crust, upheav-
ing, shaking, bursting it open, ejecting
the interior liqnid a which we call
lava, etc. He thinks there is now
great danger Of u part Of the water in
the ocean getting through the crust into
the central FIRE, and having been
changed into steam, at any moment
blowing the whole ball to pieces.
In view of this alarming idea advanced
by the Professor, who knows but what
it might be turned TO some advantage in
this locality. Why could not q Com
pany be formed to sink a deep shaft on
the Comstock ledge, deep enough to
penetrate through the worlds shell,
into the interior, and then turning
Carson river into it through the Sutro
Tunnel, thus blow the whole Comstock
Lola nnk h, Rha rAnNs All that tynnlH
be left to do then, were simply the Sc
lection Of the richest ore for milling
purposes.
PROFESSIONAL JEALousY.-The Coro-
ner's inquest in the case Of John Gray,
who died from the effects of c~hloroform,
in Virginia, a few days ago, failed to
elicit any point showing evidence Of
malpractice or c~ulpability, therefore the
jury simply returned n verdict to the
effect that deceased came to his death
from the effects Of chloroform, admins
tered by DR.. Hitler, which was just pre-
ciscly what the Doctor claimed, and
what was apparent to the public. The
whole evidence, as published, only
shows evidence Of professional jealousy
on the part Of certain physicians, prob
ably induced by DR.. Killers greater
success in practice. They would fain
condemn him for doing the very thing
they practice themselves. They get
"caught out" themselves occasionally,
and should remember the old saying Of
"those who live in glass houses should
never throw stones" Everybody read
DR.. Killers advertisement in another
column.
SPEEDIER TRAvEL 0vERLASD.-Owing
to the rapid progress made in the con-
struction Of the great Continental Rail-
road, and the consequently much short
ened distance for staging between the
eastern and western ends Of the road,
the time between here and New York is
already shortened to less than twelve
days, and within n week enough more
of the railroad will be completed to re-
duce the time to ten days. Meanwhile
Wells, Fargo & Co., have concentrated
all their Concord coaches within the
two ends Of the road, so that the entire
overland journey can now be made in n
very comfortable manner. The effect
OF this quick time and comfortable ar
rangemeut will be soon seen in the
increase Of travel overland, and q cor
responding decrease Of the number Of
passengers by steamer.
A Coon TEMrLARs' SOCIAL Hor.-
Olive Branch Lodge, |. o. G. T., will
give q social hop at the new Hall, over
the San Francisco Restaurant, on to-
morrow evening. They have extended
invitations to Crystal and Champion
Lodges, Virginia, also to Silver City
Lodge. 4 good time is expected. After
the Lodge adjourns, they will, in Il body,
proseed TO the dancing Hall. A great
many invitations have been given to
gentlemen and ladies not belonging TO
the Order.
