THURSDAY EVENING, JULY is.

A MoMENToUs QUEsrIoN.-Recent vents
furnish grounds for new and very plausl'
BILE theory in regard to the burning OF the
world, theory that attributes the copila-
grafton to we'll known natural agencies
agencies which at present threaten to get
beyond human control, and by which the
world, and possibly the universe, may be
DESTROYED, not only in cur time, but In the
course ofa few years, or even months. 1t
will be re1nen bered that within the past
year what is known as natural gas has
come into very general use in parts OF
Pennsylvania. This gas is obtained by
boring through the surface of the earth into
cavities where the gas has been stored by
the process of nature, and whence 1t escapes
into the upper air as soon 90 an outlet ~
offered. Gas wells have been discovered in
Ohio, New Mexico and California and will,
no doubt, like oil wells, be discovered in
many localities, perhaps in Europe aud Asia
as we'll as in this country. When we have a
circle of gas wells extending from Pennsyl-
yania through the Ohio Valley, TO tho
Missouri Valley, then to the Pacific via
Alaska and Bshring Straits to Siberia, and
on through Russia in Europe to Germany,
and even England, who knows what may
happen? Even with the few wells now
running, what would occur if the fire by
some chance should be conveyed to the
bowels of the earth? Might not the sea be
dri;d up and the mountains hurled from
their foundations? Indeed, might not the
earth he blown TO fragments-converted,
SO 10 speak, into deciIlions of inceudiary
rockets for extending the contlagra'ion 10
the rest Of the universe ? Who knows?
