The cause Of these shocks is attri7
buted to volcanic action. a con
temporary says the hot springs
in Arkansas constitute volcanic
outlet, and the earthquake history
of the region seems to establish a
marked connection between the
ebulition of the hot water and the
seismic shocks.
In 1911 great assures were opened
in the earth. The settlers observing
that these cracks ran mainly north
and south, felled trees east and
west and built their cabins upon
them for protection. The Mississip-
ri River ran up stream for three
DAYS at one time. In West Tennes-
see a great tract Of land suddenly
sank, water taking its place and
forming what is now known to the
fishermen. duck hunters and others
as Reelfoot Lake. To this day trees
that sank with the land may be seen
standing upright beneath the waters
of the lake. Had the region been
populous then, with cities as firmly
built as many cities in our time,
these earthquakes would unquestion-
ably have cost thousands Of lives
aud would have ranked with those
of Lisbon, Caracas and Callao as
historic disasters.
The reported increase of the flow
of natural gas in Indiana has given
rise To the fear that the long con-
tinued drain Of gas from the inter
Tor of the earth many have disturbed
the equilibrium of pressure beneath
the earth's surface and so have been
the cause of the earthquake. If this
were really the case it is doubtful if
the use of natural gas would be con-
tinued at the risk of earthquakes.
Prof. James p. Kemp, Professor of
Geology in Columbia College, has
been interviewed on this subject
and he does not share in the opinion
that the use of natural gas is in any
way responsible for earthquakes,
which he believes are due to the
cooling off of the earth's interior
and the constant contraction of the
which is necessarily going on.

THE RECENT UPHEATAL
or THE EARTH

There is no wonder that timid
people have succeeded in getting
up quite a scare over the recent
earthquakes which have been wildly
spread over the earth's surface.
The general npheaval throughout
the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys re-
minds us that in 1911 this region
was shaken up almost daily for
many months. The center of the
late seismic disturbance was at
Cairo, Illinois, while that of 1871
was at New Madrid, Mo-, a little
south of Carlo.
The recent shocks in this region
caused much alarm. They were
felt as far North as Michigan and
Wisconsin and South as New Orleans
and East as Ohio, but there was no
serious damage done except at
Carrie, where beautiful memorial
library building was badly injured.

MANUAL EDUCATION
or BOYS.

OT bO ~
The manual training schools have
been established to meet the clearly
expressed want Of boys and young
men to receive instruction in the
mechanic arts. Education of this
kind was formerly supplied through
apprenticeship to boss mechanics,
and is still to a considerable extent,
but the trade unions have discour-
aged this and fixed it so that not
one boy out of ten, who is mechan-
icaiiy inclined, eall get the know
ledge he needs through that channel
in our cities. Too much valuable
time is required to teach one boy at
a time trade, as is necessarily the
case in apprenticeship, and is a
losing undertaking. As result
we have the manual training schools,
which are turning cat G for mere in
telligent and better class of mechan-
les than those produced by the old
system, besides doing il Mt less cost
and in less time.
The trade unions evidently made
mistake in eurtailing the number
of apprentices a master mechanic
should employ, II it was done-as
seems obvious TO reduce the num-
Der of skilled mechanics and thus
prevent competition and a reduction
in wages. This more than anything
else led to the establishment of the
manual training schools that are
now to be found in all of the large
cities, and are rapidly increasing in
every city aud town throughout the
country. These schools are far
more thorough in their work than
the apprentice system. They not
only show how certain things are
done, but they teach the reasons for
doing them and the philosophy in
yolved in each particular trade.
As compared to the apprentice
system, the manuel school is a work
iugman's college aud its graduates
possess a knowledge that few bosses
are capable OF impartine to their
apprentices. This, though import
ant, is not the only advantage offer
ed by these schools which reduce
every trade 10 a science and interest
the young men that they teach with
a knowledge of the trade chosen,
adding pride in a calling which was
entered without approaching its
mental advantages and in most
cases solely because il afforded an
opportunity for making money.
Another and a very great advan-
tage afforded by the manual training
schools has been that they have
induced many young men entirely
unsuited to the professions to give
up the effort to become professional
men, for which they have neither
5he taste nor the ability We have
far more ministers, doctors, lawyers
and teachers now than we know
what to do with. A man wants to
know that which will he an advan-
tage to him in life, and this is the
kind of knowledge that the manual
training schools teach. 1t is we'll
for our boys to remember that a
good mechanic is more respected in
the world than a poor professional
man, and that ambition should lead
them TO undertake to do what they
believe it is in their power to do
best,

NATURAL GAS.
Fonnd at a Depth OF a Hundred Feet IN
RusselIViile


Arkansas is fast becoming promi-
nent as a gas producing State The
Rnssellville Democrat says:
i "Russellyille has natural gas.
This statement may be accepted as a
fact. Several times during the past
two or three years the presence of
gas has been observed in various
wells, but not until last week, SO far
as we have been informed, has the
fluid been sufficiently plentiful TO
burn. A few days ago Uncle Ben
Hartsell had n drill put into the wei
on his place adjoining the NJ. F..
Church, South, to deepen the well.
The drillers went down to a depth Of
ninety feet, where they secured what
appeared to be "A good supply OF wa
ter, and with il n good stream OF
gas. So plentiful was the gas that n
lighted match thrown into the well
causedit to blaze several feet above
the surface. After n day or two the
gas disappeared To some extent aud
would not burn at the top. but a
roaring sound could he plainly heard
in the well, indicating the presence
of the fluid 1t was quite probable
that gas can be found in paying
quantities here by going a few hun
dred feet into the earth.

TIE LINGO RHSLNESS

tt is amusing TO read in a certain
sort of American newspapers edi-
torial comment to the effect that it
is about time the United States
took firm stand in defense of the
Monroe Doctrine, 1t is equally
amusing TO hear such statesmen as
Chandler, Lodge and Cullom telling
about what the administration
Ought to do in order to let those
blasted Britishers know how we
feel about things The administra-
ton has long since taken its stand,
and this stand is that the Yene2ue-
Ian boundary dispute cannot be set
tied by force, because the Monroe
Doctrine says so. The attitude thus
assumed will be adhered to as long
as Congress and the country support
the President. Statesmen and
editors who want to give advice as
to what fought to be done should
address their remarks to Congress,
which will very soon have to meet a
big responsibility in case Salisbury
persists in his policy Of settling
with Venezuela with guns instead
of with arbitration.

OYER all the States OF the Union is an

Jefferson county has such an excel

attracting SO much attention from
all paris oil tho world. The display
OF corn sent to Atlanta from this

said To be the finest ever exhibited.
This gentleman also recently shipped
Il number of cotton samples To the
