VIEW OF HOT SPRINGS.
An ImperceptibIe Change of Tenn
perature in Fifty Years

From the New York Evening Post.
Hot Springs Of Arkansas contains an
/, interesting discussion Of the question
of interest not only there but in the
other places where similar phenomena
are observed, Are the Hot Springs dy-
ing?" The investigator answers that
the evidence seems to show a very
small decrease in temperature in the
century during which there has been
some approach to record. In the year
1804 Dunbar and Hunter reported a
temperature for the larger spring of
$50 degrees Fahrenheit, and at another
temperature of 154 degrees. In 1853
the springs were much more carefully
examined by a state geologist named
Owen, who constructed a map of tenn
peratures and elevations. The Hot
Springs creek he then found to run at
107 degrees when the air above it was
20 degrees cooler. The larger springs
he reported at lac degrees and las de-
greeS. The next year still more per-
feet surveys were made by William
Glasgow, Jr.
Since that time many artificial
changes have taken place, which might
modify water temperatures somewhat
All of the springs have been dug out
and enclosed in masonry arches Two
or more springs have in some instances
been consolidated into one. and new
outfiows have been developed. A COM
parison of the old record with those
recently made. under these changed
temperature known to-day is 147 de-
grees, as against 154 degrees in 1904
and 100 degrees by Glasgow, and 14S
degrees by Owen. In number of
springs there has been a decline of 2
degrees since 1860. Such a slight differ
ence might, however, the report says,
be due to the manner and place Of
taking the temperature. or possibly to
the inaccuracy OF the earlier instru-
nents. At all events. the temperature
is decreasing so slowly that the
change is almost imperceptible in half
century. In one instance, that of the
alum spring, there has been a marked
drop. Its temperature was 1872 degrees
in 1904. against lis degrees now.
The. comparison of the outflow is
more difficult The investigator be-
lieves that the current varies some
what from year to year. corresponding
to variations in annual rainfall in some
previous year, SO that no more definite
comparison can be made with the ear
" records than to say that the volume
of water discharged is much greater
now. This. in turn, might explain the
slight drop in the temporal ure assurn-
ing that q practically constant amount
of heat was applied.
While many theories have been ad-
vanced to account for the source of the
hot waters, the only hypothesis that
stands the test of scientific inquiry is
that which ascribes the heat of the
waters to still hot but concealed bodies
of igneous rock. 1t seems scarcely
necessary to call attention to the abb
surdity of the idea that either shaking
lime in the depths of the earth. or
chemical reaction of the waters with
the atmosphere, could be the cause OF
the heat. That the waters come from
a depth sufficient for their heating by
the normal tncrement Of earth heat Il

degree for every 80 fee) seems unreas-
enable, since 1t would necessitate a
depth of nearly 5000 feet to give the
waters their present temperature, even
assuming that they were not cooled
in their course upward. The compo-
sition of the gases given off by the
waters shows that they contain at
mospheric air as we'll as carbon d.
oxide. That the heat of the water is
due to the heat developed by the fold
ing of the rocks. which is the theory
given to account for the heat al the
Virginia Hot Springs, Is not probable
for the folding at Hot Springs is not
more intense than elsewhere in the
mountain regions of Arkansas, and no
evidence of hot-spring action has been
found at any other localities, except
where igneous rocks are present.
1t is believed that a great body of still
heated igneous rocks. intruded in the
earth's crust by volcanic agencies, un-
derlies large part of Central Arkan-
sas. The existence of such a mass is
shown by the great bodies of granite
seen at Potash Sulphur Springs and
Magnet Cove, where the rocks have
been exposed by the wearing down of
the everything sediments, though the
igneous rocks seen were of course long
since cooled. At Magnet Cove, more
ONtl1 dAG L0Id utDOSilS WHICH
show the former occurrence of not
springs.
This hypothesis is strengthened by
the occurrence at various localities
about the springs of intrusive dikss
whose trend and occurrence indicate
that the molten material which filled
the assures did not come from the bod
ies of rock now exposed at Potash Sui
phur Springs or at Magnet Cove, bur
had some deep-seated source, whose
location is indicated by the dikes as
being approximately under the hot
springs. Vapors, produced by the con-
tact of deep-seated waters, with this
"batholitn" Of hot rock, probably as
cend through assures toward the sur
face, where they meet and heat cold
spring waters. AS the igneous dikes
near by are assures reaching down to
this great mass of igneous magma.
which have been filled by IL to form
bikes, 1t is not unreasonable to sup
pose that assures extend down to the
now solid but still hot igneous mass.

II would be gross ingratitude not to
be thankful to these advisers. They are
sincere. They want to do good. They
give their time for the benefit OF 9TH

thousands going to early graves on

should stop eating before they get

resorts and pay $50 to the hotel doctor,
who strikes off from the bill of fare

eat The hotels get their savings, the
doctor gets his big fees and they get
hungry. But most of the faddists have
their imaginations in their culinary de-

them TO expect the robust members OF
society to follow their examples. Il
