TO TEST A SCIENTIFIC THEORY.
A French Savant Wishes to Reach the
Earth's Internal Fires.


NJ. Paschal Grousset, Deputy of Paris,
has Just addressed letter to NJ. Picard,
director-general of the exhibition of 1890,
in which he proposes that mine should
be made to depth of 1900 meters in order
to test the theory of internal fire, says the
Paris edition of the New York Herald.
Ii the temperature rose to tropical heat
he considers the much-discussed question
would be settled.
NJ. Grousset proposes that horizontal
galleries should be dug every 200 meters,
in which illustrations of coal, diamond,
gold, and other mining would be given.
Two elevators would connect each gallery
with the one above and below.
These, he thinks, would attract a large
number of visitors, and would therefore
justify the expenditure necessary to con-
struct the mine.
