CORE OF THE EARTH.
It's Form . Mystery, but the Globe, as Whole, Is as Rigid as Steel.

It's Form a Mystery, but the Globe, as a
 Whole, Is as Rigid as Steel.
 The theory that the crust of the earth is only few miles in thickness and rests upon an intensely heated molten interior is no longer tenable. It is now known that the earth. as whole. pos sesses a high degree of effective rigid ity. as great as. if it were composed throughout of steel. It is no doubt true that the interior of the earth Is ill an intensely heated condition and that 1t appears to possess some of the quail ities of fluid. At the same time II behaves ill many respects as il solid.
 Professor Milne concludes from the yelocities of seismic waves at different depths that the materials and general characters of the crust of the earfh that are found at the surface may ex- tend to a depth of ahout thirty miles. but beyond that the material seems to merge into d fairly homogeneous nu cleus. This state probably extends to a depth of six -tenths of the radius. but the remaining four-fenths form core which differs in its physical and possi bly, it's chemical constitution from tile outer portion. What the state of this nucleus is must be d matter largely of conjecture until we have fuller knowledge of the state of matter when subjected to the vast pressure such as exists within tue earths interior,
 Additional evidence that the earth. as d whole, is at least as rigid as steel Is furnished by study of tidal phenome- na and also by the variation of latitude, St. Louis Post Dispatch.
