A sUBTERRANEAN OCEAN.

1t Is Believed to Underlie Nebraska, Kan
sas and Indian Territory
The best scientists of the land favor
the opinion that Nebraska, Kansas and
part Of Indian Territory are situated
over an immense underground lake or
sea 1t is a we'll known fact that in sew
eral places in Kansas whole sections Of
land have suddenly disappeared, leaving
only fathomless lakelets to mark the
spot where they were once situated
Proof that there is something peculiar
with the foundation of the section OF
the country mentioned may be found in
the celebrated tide wells" Of Polk,
Butler and Colfax counties in Nebras-
ka. Polk county is best provided with
these curious wells, having between a
dozen and 90 which roar and ebb and
flow with an unseen tide. The roaring
of these remarkable curiosities-they
cannot be called natural wonders, be-
cause they are the work Of man, at least
SO far as excavation is concerned-is
caused by the inhalation and exhalation
Of immense quantities of air. There are
hours, regular and uniform, in which
the air will rush out with loud, hiss
ing sound, and again an equal space OF
time in which it seems that all the All
of the Platte valley will be sucked into
the cavernous depths of these wonderful
| wells.
