Van Bonthpysen Nays It’s Very Warm, and Would Make a Hottentot Perspire, Jtew York Mail and Express. “Talkingabout earthquakes,” said Prof. Van Benthuysen the other afternoon to a reporter, ‘’calls to mind a question which, standing alone, is of startling significance to the people of this continent. It is one t hat has been under discussion for ninny years, but I .believe that the problem was solved when the shock occurred |iu 1884. The particular place where the earthquake originated affords little room for specula tion. The main fact proved by that shock was directly to the point that 'the interior of the earth is in a highly heated state. “There are no facts to disprove of this -assumption but many to support it. If it is not in a fluid condition so largely as to interfere with its rigidity which is ac counted equal to a bull of steel, this is said to be because ol' the great weight with which the exterior presses toward the centre. Notwithstanding the facts already mentioned, a cooling process is steadily going on. Geologists claim that it has required twentv-iive millions of years to acquire its present external form of solidity, and that during this period the mountains were formed and t he hollows of the seas were made, by a sort of wrink ling of the surface as the globe of liquid fire and heated gases contracted to its present shape. According to this idea the solid crust of the earth extends down from ten to forty miles, there being beneath that a greater or less thickness of plastic material, from melted rocks, etc., under high pressure, while the crust of the earth is all the time in a high state of ten sion from the gradual cooling of the in terior, causing cavities and allowing the superincumbent earth to crowd down closer to its heated core.” Another theory propounded by the professor, and one which admits of very little criticism, is to the effect that the ac cess of water, also by percolation from the earth’s surface to these subterean ovens, it is thought, may in some cases cause ex plosions, dislocating vast quantities of material, and perhaps by opening com munication with the still hotter portion yet lower down, be the cause of some of j the most destructive volcanoes. These ex- j planations, while being to a small extent hypothetical, accord with all that is known by acknowledged authorities. Another significant point is that they afford the best theory yet advanced to account for the earthquake which is now agitating the minds of people all over the globe. The geologist,waxing warm to his subject, insisted that we have hardly made a pin scratch upon the crust of the earth. The further we go down the warmer it is. An illustration of this is supplied in the iact that the artesian wells supplying the city of Paris from a depth of nearly 1800 feet yield water of 82 3 Fah., and the lower level of the Comstock mines have had an al most uniform temperature of 130° Fah. It is estimated that the heat increases 1 deg. for every fifty feet, and this would give a temperature to melt the hardest rocks in less than ten miles. On this theory the present volcanic and earthquake regions of the globe are located along the axis of those supposed wrinkles or corrugations from the contraction of the crust thought to be at present in the state of greatest tension. The most marked of these are down on the east coast of Asia, including the Japan and Philliphlne islands, and extending to Java, where the great earth quake of 1883 occurred. Another also ex tends down the Pacific coast of North and South America, the manifestations of which have been very light in the north ern part since the commencement of his toric times, but of whose presence in South America we have had many striking proofs. QUEEN VICTORIA S LACE. K'mrishnexN of Battenlrarx—Servants of the Roysl Family—Scotchmen's Lens. Her Majesty Queen Victoria’s large and j magnificent collection of iaee, which has been the envy of every one of her daugh ters, from the apple-cheeked “Pussy” down to Princess Beatrice, is to be enrich ed by the addition of a goodly quantity of ] Irish point, which the sovereign has or- I dered with the idea not only of gratifying . a weakness common to all women, but of encouraging native industry. Such of j her collection of lace as is white, of course her majesty never uses personally; but j from time to time she lends flounces or lengths to Princess Beatrice, or perhaps to j one of her grandchildren, who may be : about to appear at some specially dressy’ function. A prompt tied faithful return of j the valuable fairy fabric thus lent some- | times results in the loan being made a i gift. In this way Princess Beatrice lias acquired a collection of lace to make the I mouth water, but the queen still has a shopful of all makes conceivable, to which she is never tired of adding. To jewelry ber majesty is leas attached j than to old lace and to old china, and . while she is always prepared to pay any . price for a coveted piece of either ol the i latter luxuries, she has been known to ; hkggle long and loudly over the purchase of some comparatively Inexpensive speci men of the goldsmith’s art. Still her col- | lection of jewelry is very line, as those oi us who have been privileged to inspect can testify; but like the stock of lace, it has been depleted by the raids made upon it by successive daughters and grand- j daughters. Unlike the same stock of lace however, it has not been replenished. Such jewelry as her niujesty' now buys is almost solely for presents; it is rare,indeed, for her to ‘purchase an ornament for her own use. Advice to Mothebs.—Mbs.
