London Globe!, Next to Sir William

interest was that in which Sir John
Murray described to the members of
the geographical section the condi-
lions Of life in the great depths Of the
ocean. OF the 103, 000. 600 square miles
which the ocean floor measures. more
than half, he said, was at a depth OF
between two and three geographical
miles. On the Challenger charts all
the areas where the depths exceed
5000 fathoms-had been called "deeps,''
and distinctive names had been con-
ferred upon them. Forty-three depres-
sions were now known, "a in the Pa.

exceeding 5000 fathoms. The great,
est depth Of all was to the east Of
Friendly Islands, in the South Pacific,
where the depth was 5.155 fathoms, or,
again, 1000 feet more below the level
Of the sea than the highest part Of
the Himalayas was above IL. In the
great depths below two geographical
miles the water was very little above
freezing point, and was q region Of

rays of the sun were wholly absorbed
In passing through the superficial lay

absent over 80 per cent Of the ocean
bed, and that cold, dark floor was
buried in dead marine organisms. In
Sir John Murray's own words, 1T thus
happens that over nearly the whole
door of the ocean we have mingled
the remains Of animals which had lived
at the surface Of the water in tropical
sunlight. and the remains Of those
which had lived all their lives in dark
ness and at a temperature near to the
freezing point Of fresh water" -
