sensitive to earthquake shocks, and often our
attention, especially if standing, would first
be called to the trembling of the ground by
the vociferous barking of all the dogs in the
vicinity.
A curious kind of earthquake is often noticed
in parts of Chile, where the event is announced
by loud roar, but no shock whatever is felt
In this case the motion probably consists of
a series of long slow vibrations which on this
account fail to be detected In Japan on the
other hand, the shock sometimes comes as
gentle but quick blow, such might be delivered
by the upward tap of hammer.
A most unusual phenomenon, experienced only
with severe earthquakes is produced when the
ground is thrown into series of waves These are
described six eight inches in height and
several feet in length, following one another in rapid
succession. The effect produces distinct nausea
and considerable difficulty in maintaining an erect
position. The rapid and violent motion of the
ground also affects the nervous system and is
extremely terrifying.
The instruments used to detect and measure
earthquakes, called usually sesmoscopes ses-
mometers and seismographs, of various forms.
The simplest kind consists merely of a vertical
column which is overturned by the shock Theo-
retically it would seem if the direction in which
the column fell should indicate the direction in
which the shock was travelling. Such does not
prove to be the case in practice, however. In the
case OF art1lcIal earthquakes produced by tie
explosion of buried charges of dynamite the column
usually falls in the direction of the explosion. This
would seem to indicate that the ground first yields
slowly, and then returns sharply to it's former
position In the of natural earthquakes several
columns placed together may all fall in different
directions.
One of the simplest sesrnoscopes is a pan of milk
If examined at once, the general direction of the
shock is indicated by the milk left adherng to the
sides of the pan, although cannot tell in which
way the shock was going that is for example,
whether it moving due north orr due south
Other circumstances will usually settle that point
however. The height to which the milk rose on the
sides of the pan indicates the force of the shock
In the of artificial reservoirs forty to eighty
feet across three and four feet in height have
sometimes been observed. After the great Lisbon
earthquake waves of this character disturbed some
of the ponds in England, and few hours later the
great lakes in America.
sensitive form of Seismometer consists of a
small telescope through which is viewed the refec-
ton of suitable object in surface of mercury.
The best form of seismometer, however, consists of
heavy pendulum bob suitably supported either
by two wires. Various adjuncts are attached,
to multiply the amount of the motion and to record
it on paper. The paper is often made to in
such to furnish record of the time
a stiff pendulum rod IS used, and is supported by
two threads wires to vibrate in horizontal
