NATURAL GAS IN ENGLAND.
1t Was Discovered in East Sussex "a
Long Ago as 1875 In an Acct
dental Manner.

In the minds Of the public natural
gas has always been so intimately as
ISOLATED with the United States that
information of its existence in Eng
land, for example, comes in the nature
of a revelation, says Casters Maga-
zine
Mr.. Inverness Watts tells us that
natural gas was discovered in East
Sussex as long ago as 1875. when, in
making experiments on the tempera-
ture in a bore hole at various depths
and on lowering light into the bore
tube, an explosion occurred.
Among subsequent further discov-
cries, the most important one appears
to have been made in 1896, at Heath
field railway station of the London,
Brighton & South Coast railway. The
railway company desired to obtain a
better quality of water for their en-
gine tank than that afforded by the
present surface spring supply. Ac-
cordingly' a six-inch bore-tube was
sunk, commencing at the bottom of
sump 73 feet deep. into which the sur
face water had been allowed to flow.
Gas appears to have been discovered
long time before its inHammable
properties were tested, q strong odor
of gas having been noticed for some
days; but the smell was attributed to
the presence Of foul air" in the bore
tube
At depth of 312 feet from the level
Of the permanent way the smell and
rush of the gas were so pronounced
that (by way Of experiment. scme one

body Of flame sprang up, the height of
which is variously stated. the maxi
mum estimate being l6 feet It was ex-
tinguished with great difficulty. by

More recently many other borings
