of the Berlin voters supported socialist

Locating Ore Deposits.
A new method for discovering deposits
OF ores, coal and oil has been found by
Prof. Jakob Koenigsberger. After taking
tests in many boreholes with the most
varied local surroundings. he found that
the rate at which the earth's crust grows
warmer at lower levels Is far from uni
form. He gives the average rate at about
sixty-four feet for one degree Fahrenheit
but near q sea coast 1t requires as much
as 200 feet in some cases to get one de-
gree higher temperature. It was found,
however, that over coal deposits the rate
is only forty-seven to fifty-five feet. Oil
heats the earth still more rapidly. caus-
ing a gain Of one degree for every fifteen
to twenty feet. It is believed that Prof.
Konigsberger's Investigations will prove
of great use in prospecting for mineral
and oil deposits. since it will be posi-
BILE to determine by taking the temper

deposits; and it will not be necessary to
very deep holes without discovering any

Socialism and Race Suicide.

METHOD OF LOCATING ORES

BERLIN, April 2O.-The emperor Wis
tied Cuxhaven before leaving for Corfu
and held conferences there with high
naval officers; and he has now decided
to establish war harbor there. At pres
ent the only naval harbor on the North
sea is Wilhelmshaven. which is not ca
pacious enough to accommodate more
vessels than are comprised in the first
squadron. AS it has just been decided to
transfer the big new cruiser Won der
Tam and several others from the Baltic
to the North sea. it becomes necessary
to increase the harbor facilities on that
coast Of Germany. The change is die
tated by the fact that Britain has the
larger part OF its naval strength in the
North sea, and 1t has come to be an
axiom with German naval men and lay
men as well that the German navy will
find it's chief use in that sea IL it should
ever come into action.
