THE GOLDEN GRAVEL DEPOSITS.

The theory of the formation Of the aurlt-
erous gravel deposits, g%eologically termed
ssdrifts,' of the Sierra Nevada, has been
variously explained by different scientists,
practical miners and ordinary observers.
Professor Whitney adopts the glacial tsleo-
ry, which falls very short Of giving satisfac-
ton; others give the glacio-aqneous theory
of ice and water combined-but how the
work was carried on none can explain. Inc
f~avorite theory of miners and others VINO
have given but superficial examination or
the subject is that the "Dead Blue river"
flowing from north to south in the chanhel
OF the great blue lead, through the entire
length of the collaborating gravel deposits'
The falacy Of this is as easily shown as any
of the Others. Recently we had an inter-
view with Fl. S. Jacobs, an ablea and thor
ouch mining engineer, who has spent many
wears in the most studious and careful OBJ
servation Of the various geological ana MN
~eralogical formations Of different countries,
and fourteen months Of undivided attention
to the auriferous gravel of the Sirra, in that
time trayersing the mountain range ana
studying every nil anu cliahllel lloil 1h"if~
posa on the south to Plumas county on the
north. The result of his studies will some
day be published in a comprehensive form,
and will certainly attract the attention OF
scientists throughout the world. Mr.. ia
cobs readily disproyes the glacial theory OF
Professor Whitney, as we'll as that OF the
ancient "Blue river" but contends that
there were a number of rivers occupying
the channels now filled with the gravel de
posts, and that their courses can De tracee
from hill to hill with absolute accuracy
The channels were covered and destroyed
by subsequent volcanic eruptions, the ex
tinct craters of which are we'll known
throughout the whole extent of the Sierr'
Nevada, causing the rivers to make nev
channels, and, with the elevation of tn
coast range, creating and filing the sacra
mento valley.-RepubIc.

THE GRASsHOPPER PEST

Dakota letter to st. Paul Pioneer Press
Grasshoppers are Matching out in innum-
cradle myrlads on the prairies west OF
the Missouri river now, and unnumbered
myriads have been Matching out for quite
a while. The ground is black with
them. They hang upon the grass like
bees after swarm. But this is not sur
prising, for they hatch out the same way
here every year. have been familiar
with them for the past ten years, and
see no change in them at all; possibly
they are little bigger, for under the
laws of evolution they ultimate in the
the kangaroo. On the plain they are at
home; they are healthy and vigorous,
for grass is their natural food, and as
long as they feed upon grass they thrive;
but let them give up their natural food
and forsake their native land, the arid
plains, and go upon our wheat farms and
luxuriate upon the rich, highly concen-
trated food of cultivated grain, and dis
ease sets In, gangrene of the vitals is the
result, and the grasshopper perishes.
Three crops of wheat will destroy any
one invasion. After passing three sum-
mers in cultivated fields, An epidemic
(worse than dyspepsia produced by high
living, will carry them of entirely, and
no more will be heard of them until
some one situated like myself, on the
the frontier, will report of their recruit
ing camps that they are preparing for
another raid.
