The Earth's Center.

Scientists no longer believe the center of
the earth to be a molten mass. They be
lieve 1t to be very hot. but yet cooling day
by day. just as a spent cannon ball cooIs
toward the center. This would explain why
the rise of temperature is SO gradual as the
depths of the wells are increased Accord
ing to the condition already encountered
the boiling point of water. 212 degrees
should be reached at depth of two miles
This is. of course, for places where the sur
face offers no unusual evidence of heat be-
much more rapid. For instance, near Boise
tesian weeks furnish very hot water which
is used for domestic purposes in the houses
Professor Hallock was asked IL it were
practicable to utilize directly the internal
heat Of the earth. II should say it would
he practicable he replied. THE heat could
be used in the form of steam. If water was
encountered at the proper depth it would
be in the form of steam. which could be
raised to the surface and used direct. On
the other hand,sif the bottom of the hole
was dry and hot, water might be pumped
down cold and returned as steam. 1t could
then be utilized in the most practical man
ner. method something like this Is en-
ployed at the German salt wells in Silesia
The well hole Is bored until a stratum of
salt is reached. Then water ia poured In
and allowed to become thoroughly tmpreg-
mated with salt. The solution is then
pumped to the surface and the water is
evaporated. leaving commercial salt in
sufficient quantity to make the well a good
paying institution. .s15igi.'

A Deep Well.

THE bottom Of these salt wells are hot
and in the Schaladabach well the tempera-
lures reached 1876 degrees Fahrenheit. At
the present time this well is the deepest in
the world. but 1t will remain 50 only a short
time. as 1t is the intention of the Pennsyl-
Vania company to carry the well on Peters
creek to a depth of 6O00 feet at the very
least 1t may be carried still deeper. the
company being much interested in the
scientific outcome Of the boring Besides.
this very deep boring may. develop some
feature of the internal construction as yet
unknown to US. The hole extends down
through a thick stratum of shales that
overlie the coniferous limestone of the
region. Some Of the deeper strata do not
come to the surface until they reach q
point toward the middle of Ohio. 1t would,
OF course. be premature to make any state
ment concerning any development except
The constant increase Of heat. That. how
ever. Is likely to continue, and 1t may in the
course of time come to- be utilized. The
earth could then be drawn upon like an i'm

what would be veritebie artificial geys ysers
would be not inffeddents ~

English entomologists arc becoming
aAarmed at the rapid disappearance Of
tive insects Of the woods and fields. The
Leicester Literary and Philosophical So
ciety has drawn up q series Of regula-
tioi,s to protect the insects from the
greed Of collectors and requires that no
specimen Of the wood white butterfly
shall be taken, while Of certain other
species collector may take but q single
specimen during season. Violations Of
the rules bring unpleasant penalties. A
transgreesor who Is member Of the So
oisty may be expelled. he will be re-
ported to any other society Of which he
il q member, and the influence Of the
society will be used to prevent him from
exchanging or dealing in any way with
other .entomologists. While these regp.
latiopS may be difficult to enforce, it if
hoped ahat their influence in preserving
rare Insects from determination may DO

been used In warfare as weapons against
besieging forces. The first is related py
Appian Of the siege Of Themiscyra. IN
Pontus. BY Lucullus in his war against
Mithridates. Turrets were brought up
mounds were built and huge mines were
made by the Romans The people OF
Themiscyra dug open these mines from

The second instance 10 recorded IN an
Irish manuscript in the Bibliotheque
Royale at Brussels, and tells how the
Danes and Norwegisns attacked Ches-
ter, which was defended by the Saxons
and some Gallo auxiliaries. The Danes
were worsted by a stratagem, but the
Norwegians, sheltered by hurdles, trieu
to pierce the walls Of the town when
"what the Saxons and the Gaeidhil who
were among them did was to throw
down large rocks, bywhich they broke
down the hurdles over their heads. y
What the others did to check this was
10 place large posts under the hurdles.
What the Saxons did next was to put
all the beer and water Of the town into
the caldrons Of the town and boil them
and spill them down upon those who
were under the hurdles, so that their
skins were peeled of. The remedy
which the Lochlans applied to this was
to place hides outside on the hurdles.
What the Saxons did next was to throw
down all the beehives in the town upoL
the besiegers. which prevented them
from moving their hands or legs, from
the number of bees which stung them.
They afterward desisted and left the
city.

arated from Ammcrthal, or the valley
Of the Ammer, BY o rampant Of noun

time In protecting themselves against
the dread contagion, but one day ma
tive who had been, working all summer
at Eaebelske evaded thequarantine and
entered the Ammerthal by secret path
in order to celebrate an annual church
festival with his family Two days aft
erward he was acorpse. and in less than
three weeks tbs plague had carried off
% 81 the Ammerthalers.
Departing % al human succor, tho

A street vender said that anything
that might be offered could be sold in
the street. Some things sell better than
others, and for some the demand Is
more continuous than for others but
buyers can be found for anything II the
article ia brought to their attention. A
knowledge Of this fact prompts the
Offering sometimes Of curious things or
things that at first thought seem curl
Gus, that one would not expect to see
offered in this way. But the fact will
be recalled. If one dwells for a moment
upon this subject, that there are always
people to be seen standing afoune look
ing mt these novel offerings. Their nov
city attracts some attention, and then
there are more or less people who want
the things.
Here was man, for instances, selling
tiles. nothing whatever but files, of
which he had push cart full. There
were files Of various sizes and Of all
kinds-fat files, half round, square,
three cornered and rattaiI-all at the,
uniform price of cents each or six for q
quarter. And there was a fair trade do
ing in these files. The many people who
pass in the course of the day along q
busy street have manifold wants. Some
among them want files.
Files cannot be sold steadily By
street vendors, as many other thinas
are-there is limit to the quantity
that this market will absorb-but there
Is some sale for files in the street, as
there is for pretty much everything that
is offered. New York Sun.
