DEEP SEA CURRENTS.
MYSTERIES OF THE OCEAN THAT
HAVE PUZZLED THE SCIENTISTS.

A Theory as TO the Origin and Cause
of the Gulf and Other StFeams-Are
They the Product of Immense Sub
marine Geyserss
For more than a century scientists
and philosophers have been vainly try
ing to discover the origin and cause Of
the mysterious current in the Atlantic
ocean called the gulf stream. Why so
called is not apparent, as nothing in
the gulf Of Mexico is in it's composition.
There have been many theories, which
have been abandoned, some perfectly
absurd, such as it's being caused by the
earth in its revolution on it's axis, for
If it had the power to draw this stream
at the rate of five miles an hour from
the coast Of Florida it would draw all
the water from the east coasts of
North and South America at the same
velocity. The prevailing theory is that
the northeast trade winds drive cur
rent into the Caribbean sea and, aided
by the feeble equatorial stream, heap
up the water in the gulf of Mexico,
thence rushing around the south of
Florida from the source of the gulf
stream. But there is no such heap
ing Of the waters in that gulf. The
waters there are sluggish, and there is
no perceptible current leading toward
the gulf stream or anywhere else.
This theory has been accepted for
want of better, but those who favor
it are not entirely satisfied with it. The
gulf stream is an Independent body Of
water, having no connection with the
water around or behind the point
where it energies. It is warmer and
Of q deeper blue than the surrounding
seas and gushes forth from the start
ing point off Cape Sable at the rate Of
from five to six kuots an hour, with
a temperature Of about 80 degrees,
lessening gradually as it proceeds on
it's journey of thousands of miles across
the Atlantic ocean, warming the west
ern shores of Europe. .
Having seen the fallacy of the the
cries concerning the gulf stream, we
will turn our attention to the great Pa
cific current, identical in all respects
with Its sister current Of the Atlantic
and concerning which there are no the
cries to contend with.
1t starts spontaneously from a spot a
few miles from the south end of the
island Of Formosa, in the Banshee
channel, following the coast Of For
mosa northeasterly, past and through
the LoOchoO islands, Skirting the coast
of Japan; thence turns eastward on Its
long journey across the wide Pacific,
warming the coast of7'America from
Puget sound to Mexico. Its dark blue
waters are IN striking contrast to the
surrounding seas, giving It the name of
Murra Suar, or black water. It is an
Independent stream where no combina-
ton Of winds or currents can possibly
cause the mighty rush Of. warm blue

water with a velocity OF from nve t
six knots an hour from the start

water with velocity OF from nve to
six knots an hour from the start.
In it's characteristics of heat. color
and direction it resembles the gulf
stream in every particular, and the
origin of the two streams must be the
same, whatever they may be, which
shall endeavor to show later on. There
is another ocean current similar in all
respects to the other two, with the ex-
posite direction. Starting from the vi
cinity of the south end of the island Of
Madagascar, it runs southwesterly
around the Cape Of Good Hope, where
it disappears off Cape Lagullas. AS a
current, probably part of it is diverted
into steady set of the eastern current,
caused by the prevailing westerly
winds in that region. No scientists, SO
far as am aware, have attempted to
account for this current. Having now
proved beyond refutation that all the
cries advanced as to the cause Of ocean
currents are groundless, it remains to
be proved what the true cause is.
1t must be admitted that the currents
have similar origin, as they are iden-
teal in every respect as regards color.
heat and velocity, springing forth In
the same manner spontaneously from
the earth in some mysterious way.
There is no place on the surface of the
earth where the water can be heated
to furnish the heat contained in these
x1n< 10
depths Of the sea; consequently the
forces must be subterranean and can
only be accounted for by large bodies
of clear, blue water from the ocean
forcing its way into the depths Of the
earth under it's crust, where it burrows
a channel of it's own to the surface
again, having received it's warmth on
the way by contact with the internal
heat of the lower regions Of the earth.
forced on by continual pressure from
behind.
That there are orifices in the earth's
crust cannot be denied. also what be-
comes of the vast volume Of water that
cannot be computed which is constant
~ running at the rate Of from four to
six knots an hour from the Atlantic
ocean, through the strait Of Gibraltar
into the Mediterranean sea. The nu-
merous rivers. too, are continually
flowing in, and yet the sea remains at
the same level. Evaporation cannot
account for it, for what is evaporated
is formed into clouds and Is precipitat-
ed again into the sea by the medium OF
storms and frequent rains.
The water must enter the earth from
the ocean through these apertures on
an incline as it gushes forth in these
three mighty currents and cannot be
discovered by soundings; consequently
these three mighty currents are moth
ing more or less than immense geysers.

BANK NOTES STOLEN.

and are Unsigned.

St. Louis, Oct. 14.-Nearly $50, 900

United States treasury department, to
he issued by the National bank of
Helena, Mont, were stolen about three
days ago, either while the express car
as nearing st. Louis or between In
dianapolis and St. Louis.
The federal authorities have been
investigating the robbery ever since
i, occurred, but will not give out any
information, because they hope the rob-
bers are in st. Louis and that they
may be able to locate them. The rea-
son or this hope is that today one Of
the stolen $40 bills turned up in the
p%ostotiice with the forged signatures
Of the bank president and cashier.
AS is the custom of the treasury de-
partment at Washington when a ma
tional bank desires to issue currency
bearing the name of the bank, the bills
are issued aud space is left for the sig
natures of the president and cashier.
When the notes arrive at their destina-
ton, these signatures are attached and
they are then ready for general use.
The stolen $40 bill that was taken in
by Chief Clerk Wilson at the postofice
had the name of Thomas B. Hill as
president, while T. A. NARROW is the
president. For the cashiers name
John R. Smith was written, when it
should have been A. l.. Smith.

succeeded in cashing several checks
p%urporting to have been drawn by MI.
O'Neil on the O'Neil National bank.
When Mr.. O'Neil became acquainted
with this fact he pronounced the
checks forged and at once swore out
warrants for the arrest of the trio.
Shute IA arrested, but the others
could not be found, although search
vas made by the sheriff all along the
B. and NJ. road. On Tuesday Shute
was arraigned before Justice Sumption
and there being evidence submitted
that there was a probable case against
him he was held to await the action
of the district court. His bond was
