To precipita,e am Earthquake


The New York H'orld publishes le-
markable story from Nangatuck, w.
Va, of the plans of two Frenchmen,
Messrs. Paul Metz and Conrad Durand,
of Paris, who, it states, have co ne over
to this country for the express pur-
pose Of experimenting with natures
forces.
The cause of earthquakes is prob
lem which has created a great deal OF
discussion between them, and on which
they both have different ideas. Mr..
Durand holds that all convulsions and
upheavals are caused by large quanti-
ties of natural gas accumulating in
caverns or natural reservoirs under the
earth's surface, and that it is the ex-
plosion of this gas through ignition
| that causes the ruptures; while on the
other hand Mr.. Metz holds to the gen.
orally accepted theory that it is the
gradual cooling Of the earth's crust and
It's more rapid contraction than the in
terror.
Not long since these gentleman re-
ceived from civil engineer who had
visited these gas wells a letter in which
they were described at length. They
were told of the comparatively is
olated situation, the nature of the
soil. the geological formation and the
probable supposition of large reser-
voir from which the gas was escaping.
On receipt of this information Mr.. Du-
rand Immediately determined to try an
experiment, the ultimate result of which
may produce convulsion or an earth
quake that will shake up q large area
of this wild and thinly settled country
and startle some of the sleepy denizens
into mental activity, if nothing more,
or it may end in "fiasco,: rs Mr..
Metz says. Mr.. Durand bases bis theo-
ry on the fact that an explosion will
certainly follow when spark or flame
comes into coutact with stored or accu
mulated gases, as frequently happens
in coal mines.
On his arrival iu New York he pur
chased a small magnetic electric explod-
er. together with several miles of small
insulated copper wire. Arriving at The
wells, he decided TO experiment on the
first well bored, which is at the
mouth of Burning Creek on the West
Virginia side. 1t is reported
that, when this well was bored, the
we'll auger, at depth of 1000 feet,
seemed to drop into large cavity, and
the volume of gas was so strong that it
blew the auger clear out Of the well.
He will lower two wires twisted to-
gether, with carbon points so arranged
on the ends that sending an electric
rrent of great intensity through one
wire will produce a spark Of sufficient
heat, as it passes from one point to the
other in making the circuit, TO fire the
gas in the cavern. After arranging and
securing the wires in the we'll he will
then string out two wires far up on old
Mount Startling, at the head Of Burn.
ing Creek, where he can get a good
view of the situation through his glass.
On some high projecting promontory
overlooking the foothills far below he
will locate his electrical instruments
and prepare for what he hopes will be
a successful termination ofthis scientific
experiment.

A PNEUMATIC sADDLE.-Chiclgo racegoers
are just now much excited over new thing
in the way of racing saddles that, if the pa
pers published out there are to be believed, is
going 10 create as great revolution is racing
as the pneumatic tire has in bicycling ana
harness racing The new thing is pneu
matte saddle, 1t is a pad that has to be in
tlated and is carried just under the saddle
seat This makes an al, cushion for tie
jockey to sit on. Its merit is supposed to be
that it keeps the jockey from pounding so
hard horses back. and so makes racing eas
ier for the animal. With the new-fangltd
air-cushion saddle it is claimed that the horse
i practically relieved of the impedimenta Of
dead weight, oflead pads and jockey. To make
weight mercury cartridges carried in an
aluminium belt s!ung across the saddle POM
mel are to be used in place of the lead pad
now in vogue.

supposed, in an election where county
officers are to be elected, local interest
gets out votes for county officers
than any other. The returns, however,
show. that the highest vote cast for any
county officer was that for sheriff, and
and for that office there we're cast 582, or
q votes less than that cast for represent
alive. The candidate for that office was
regularly nominated, while Murphy
used 'stickers, altogether. The vote
cast by ladies on Forestry school location
151, which, if added to the entire
vote cast for secretary of state, would
make just Is more than Murphy got
with "stickers,'' and Hanson, the regular
nominee, got. It was reported by the
Forum and other papers. that Murphy
received IS per, cent of the total vote of
Ward county. It appears, hewever, that
his opponent, Hanson, received 1856 votes
which makes a rather large per cent
when compared with what was reported"
