Five Mills on Dollar-Assistant Judges
Make No Charge for Services.
Assistant Judges Nichols and TomlnsOn
have decided that the county tax for the
coming year shall be five mills on dollar.
The treasrrer's books show that the taxes
of the past four years including the tax for
1894 Just made, average about half as much
as the lowest tax assessment for the last 20
years previous to 1880. That the assistant
judges charged nothing for their services
last year is else worthy of notice

The Cause OF Gexsers

Bunsen has explained the periodical
eruption Of geysers in such a satisfac-
tory manner that doubt is no longer pos
Eible. A cavern filed with water lies
deep in the earth under the geyser, and
the water in this cavern is heated by the
earth's internal heat far above pig de-
grees. since there is a heavy hydrostatic
pressure upon it arising from the weight
Of water in the passage or natural stand
pipe that leads from the subterranean
chamber of the surface of the earth.
After o time the temperature of the
water below rises. SO that steam is given
off in spite of the pressure, and the col
ulnn in the exit tube is gradually forced
upward. The release of pressure and
the disturbance of the water then cause
the contents Of the subterranean cham
Der to flash into steam and expel the
contents of the exit pipe violently. These
eruptions may also be provoked by throw
ing stones or clods of turf into the basin
OF the geyser. The water in the cavern
below is disturbed by this means.-Great
Divide.
