Such reports, covering the entire coun-

This report is no longer available at the

The information IN this paper includes
the results of measurements of flow,
made by the use of instruments designed
especially for that purpose, at about 14C

MAGNESIA IN SEA SHELLS.
Effect of Climate on the Composition
Of Echiniod Skeletons.

Chemical analyses of starfishes. sea
urchins. and crinoids. collected from all
parts of the world. show that the skele-
tons of these animals contain much mag
nesia. The amount present is found by
the United States Geological Survey to
vary with the temperature of the water
in which the creatures lived. The per-
centage of magnesia is highest in those
specimens that lived in tropical waters
and lowest in forms from the icy seas
of Greenland and the Antarctic, with a
regular graduation between which even
shows the local effect Of cold ocean cur
rents upon life at the sea bottom.
The inves legations suggest that the
skeletons of these animals have the
composition Of magnetism limestone, or
dolonite. ana it is possible that they
furnish clues not only as to the climatic
conditions under which such limestones
are now performed, but also as to the
temperatures of the oceans in different
regions of the earth where during diff
ferent periods of geological history,
great deposits of magnesion limestone
were formed. Examinations Of these MA
rine invertebrates will, it is hoped yield
definite information as to the processes
of dolomite formation.

Many Geographic Positions in Ohio

sheets about is by 20 inches in size, each
sheet covering an area of about 200
square miles. The boundaries Of the
areas shown on the sheets are parallels
of latitude and meridians of longitude.
Nearly $500 primary geographic posi-
tons have been determined for the ac-

results of this work have just been pub

Survey in Bulletin 552 which includes
also an index map showing the location
of the triangulation and traverse sta

LIQUOR THOUGHT TO
Be MANUFACTURED
IN A maine STILL

Dover, Me-. March 14.-In an effort to
put a stop to the alleged Illicit manu-
facture and sale of liquor in the town of
County Atty. James II. Hud-
son Of Piscataquis has secured the in
dictment of John Leavitt OF Willimantic.
Two indictments were returned by the
grand jury which reported Friday night
According to Mr.. Hudson, the manufac-
ture of a liquor known as ''Willimantic
smoke" has hourished for years. The hq-
uor is manufactured from molasses and
has d smoky taste, which, with its cloud
ed color, gives it the name of smoke. y
The percentage of alcohol is high and
the makers find a ready market in the
lumber camps in the vicinity.
The liquor, it is said, is sold to woods
men for so cents a quart and the method
of sale is similar to that of moonshiners
in the South. A half-dollar laid on a
certain stump will result in the disap-
pearance of the coin and the appearance
of a quart bottle of smoke"
Some years ago a raid by United States
revenue officers resulted in the arrest of
Edward Arnold of Willimantic, whose
still was seized and who was convicted
and served year in the Cumberland
county Jail at Portland.

Congress when it, reassembles.'
Under our system of government the

the government may cooperate, but as
the success Of an administration Is fire.
Guently believed to be measured by the

the present system has been condemned

Further consideration deepens my
