Underground Waters.

The earth contains an abundance OF
water, even in places like some of oul
great Western plateaus where the sur
face IS comparatively arid. The
greatest depth at which underground
water can exist Ia estimated to be
about six mics. Below that. 1t Is be
lieved, the cavities and pores Of the
rock are completely closed. The
amount of water In the earth's crust
Is reckoned at nearly one-third of that
contained in the oceans, so that Ii
would cover the whole surface Of the
globe to depth of from three to
three thousand five hundred feet. The
waters underground flow horizontally
after sinking below the unsaturated
zone Of the rocks, but in the sands of
the Dakota formation, which supply
remarkable Artesian wells the motion
does not exceed one or two miles n
year. The underflow toward the sea
beneath the great plains may some
times take the form Of broad streams
or moving sheets Of water. But the
movement Is excessively slow.

Philippine Climate and Isolation Re-
sponslblc for Suicidal Mania.
In an interesting article In the New
York Herald Stephen Bonsal. the IA
NOUS war correspondent, discusses at
length the remarkable prevalence Of
suicidal mania among our soldiers In
the Phillip ncs. While admitting that
whisky and native poisonous drinks
of which our soldiers have become
enamorad are responsible for part
of the many cases Of sudden madness,
which are so often attended with muir
der and suicide, he maintains that
fully twice as many are due TO the
climate. to the terrible isolation which
tho men sometimes undergo and to
the awful strain to which they are
sometimes subjected In battling with
willy and hidden foe. To the depress-
ing isolation he attributes most of the
cases Of suicidal and murderous mania
which results in officers and men alike
running amuck. We quote from the
article one incident from which Mr.
Bonsal stands sponsor:
