ORIGIN OF ASPHALT.
Several Theories Advanced to Account
for the Mineral.

for the Mineral.
An original theory In regard to the
formation of asphalt was that 1t was
produced by the evaporation of the vol
atile parts from crude petroleum over
beds of sand. the residue being asphalt.
Prof. Winchel, III his s"Walks and
Talks in the Geological Field" says:
The oil strata were SO tilted that the
fluid parts escaped, leaving the as
phalt." a4 en 5aaa
Prof. Orion has another theory, which
was the one generally accepted twenty
years ago. 1t was that the crude pc
troleum assembled by a capillary attrac-
ton until itreached an imperyious stra-
tum, where, being more or less exposed
to the atmospheric action by eyapora-
tion and oxidation. 1t was changed into
asphalt. 49,
The asphalt of Trinidad was gener-
ally believed to be of volcanic origin.
These theories were commonly ac-
eepted before the discovery of the Ken
lucky deposits. which, after examiDa-
ton, clearly disproved them. Prof. Or
ton himself abandoned his theory, al
though It was. consistent with some Of
the deposits which aresin the Chester
sandstone, being oyeriaid by clay
lshale. II this. capillary. theory had been
correct the asphalt would have been
found In The top Of the sandstone, next
TO the shale. and would have left some
trace, in the sand and. limestone below,
while The facts are the sandstone, both
above and below the asphalt strata, Is
entirely free from any trace of 1t, and
there are even ine streaks of perfectly
white sand interspersed between lay
ers Of bituminous sandstone. showing
eonclusively that bituminous matter
could not have come up from below,
but was deposited at the same time
with the sand.--American Asphalt Jour-

Chinese literature, almost unknown
to Western peoples, is rich in parallels
and fables. DIR. w. a. p. Martin, In
his book, "1'he Lore OF Cathay," gives
several which may not be as good as
Aesop, but are greatly superior to those
of some of his modern imitators.
\ tiger who had never seen an ass
was terrified at the sound of his voice,
aud was about to run away. when the
donkey turned his heels and. prepared
to kick.
If that is your mode of attack" said
the tiger. Il know how to deal with
you"
In another fable the donkey gets
even.
\ tiger captured monkey. The
monkey begged TO be released on the
score Of his insignlhcance. and prom,
ised to show the tiger where he might
ind more valuable prey. The tiger
complied, and the monkey conducted
him to a hillside where an ass was feed
lng-an animal which the tiger had
never before seen.
Ny good brother" said the ass TO
the monkey, hitherto you have always
brought me two tigers. How is ii that
yon have brought me only one to-dayye
The tiger lied for his life. Thus
ready wit wards off danger
The principle of the next fable the
Chinese always apply 10 their Euro
pean instructors in the art of war
\ tiger, finding a eat very prolific in
devices for catching game, placed him
self under her instruction. At length
he was told there was nothing more to
be learned
Have you taught me all your
trieksf'
Yes replied the cat.
Then" said the tiger You are of no
further use, and so | shall eat you"
The cat however sprang lightly into
the branches Of a tree and smiled NJ
the tigers disappointment. She had not
taught the tiger all her tricks.
