zen Of Chemung county, according to
the New York Sun. do you know
why? / see you don't. Well, maybe
you don't know, either, why 1t was
called Households in the first place?
see you don't. Then 1t Is plain
you've never been to Households.
, "You see, when the first white set
tiers entered the Chemung country, a
century and q quarter ago, they found
the skulls of / don't know how many
horses lying in heaps along the river
IN a spot that seemed to be a good
spot to settle on. The tradition is that
these skulls had belonged to horses
that were with the army Of Gen. Sulli-
van when he made his historical raid
on the hostile Indian tribes up through
that country and into the Genesee
country in 1879. On the return march
of the victorious army from the Gene
see country a part Of the troops en-
camped along the Chemung. AS Gen.
Sullivan intended to float down the
Chemung with his force on RATS he
ordered the killing Of the superfiuous
horses. Wild animals devoured the
carcasses and there the bleaching
skulls lay when the first settlers came
in and pre-empted the land. So they
thought the matter over and called
the settlement Households.
That's the way Households came to
get its name and the reason good
many people who live there are kick
ing because the name was changed
is that as time went on and Horse
heads grew to be quite a town its
queer name excited the curiosity OF
strangers and 1t was soon noticed
that the very first thing they would
say on landing there was:
why is 1t called Households?
$50 it came to pass that patriotic
citizens began to lie in wait for
strangers, and as soon as the invaria-
BILE question came 1t was their one
great delight and recreation to tell
the story in much detail. In fact
competition in telling the story be-
came SO close among enterprising
and watchful Horsehead homers that
the man who captured the ear Of q
stranger first and most frequently was
rather looked upon with envy by the
less alert of his fellow citizens.

the east, who was sought after to be-
come interested In establishing a
manufacturing industry in Horse

The distribution Of volcanoes Is well
worthy of attention.
The Pacific ocean Is almost COM
pletely surrounded by them. Vol
canic peaks rise as sentinels all along
the mountain chain running from
Patagonia to Alaska, and thence
around Kamschatka, down the Asiatic
coast to the Malay archipelago. Near
" all the islands also Of the Pacific
ocean either contain active volcanoes
or are OF volcanic origin. while In the
interior of continents there are few.
From this wide and peculiar distri-
button Of volcanoes 1t Is inferred that
their cause is very deep seated, and
that It is in some way connected
with the sea. Their activity is doubt
less often due to the water which
leaks through the solid rocks, and up
on reaching the heated mass is turned
into steam, and thus an eruption may
be compared to the explosion OF a
boiler. Great volumes Of steam often
issue from their craters, and in some
cases floods of water are vomited
forth, though sometimes such floods
are produced by the sudden melting
Of snow upon the sides Of the volcano.
The evidence of ancient volcanic
action Is found in all the older rocks,
and in many that are of recent origin.
Many islands in the ocean are nothing
but piles of volcanic material thrown
up from craters in the bottom Of the
ocean. The Azores, the Canaries, st.
Helena and many other islands have
been built up by volcanic action from
great depths. In 1911 the crater Of a
volcano suddenly emerged from the
sea near the Azores and elected vast
quantities of lava, stones and cinders.
but the waves have since washed II
all away.
Where the surrounding rock has
been cracked and lava has filed the

But the most remarkable outflow
ings of lava in all the world are to

heat, or, at any rate, the intense neat
in the interior of the earth, can make
It assume a liquid form. This also
agrees with the calculations Of ply
sicists, who affirm that the earth be-
HAYES like a solid, and therefore can.
not have a liquid interior, as was for.
merly supposed.
But the many other positive indica-
tons of the existence Of molten mat
ter II the interior Of the earth have
led to a conclusion which satisfies
all parties, namely, that after descend
ing 40 or so miles from the surface
the heat Is so great and the pressure
so limited that all substances are
melted, so that there Is a segment,
probably many hundred miles in thick
ness, consisting of molten matter,
while the interior nucleus remains
both intensely hot and at the same
time solid.
One Of the most striking positive
indications that there Is such q mol
ten mass at no great distance below
the surface Of the earth is to be found
in the volcanoes of the world, which
are best explained as vent holes
through which this molten matter es-
capes to the surface In response to the
varying degrees Of pressure from the
crust of the earth over different areas.
When, for example. through long
continued deposition Of earthly ma
terial about the mouths of the great
rivers, one portion of the earth's
crust becomes overloaded, so that 1t
presses with undue weight over q
limited area, It would squeeze q pOr.
ton of the molten material to the
surface, Just as If you press with your
thumb upon the rind Of an orange In
one place Il will crack the rind In an
other place and force the Juice out
through It. The slow contraction Of
the diameter OF the earth, also,
through its loss Of heat By radiation.
may result in the wrlnkling up Of the
crust IN such a manner that the mol
ten matter will be forced out along
