LINCOLN , Oct. 1. ( Special Telegram. ) The first foot ball game of the season was played on the University campus between the University eleven and Hastings college. The game was one sided and the Hasting . team was totally unable to make gains * n their downs , while the University boys scored at will. Tbo visitors lacked both weight and practice , whllo the 'Varsity team did satisfactory work. There was a goo ! sized audience , but the dust made the day very disagreeable. The line up was as follows : University. Positions. Hastings.

The men handled the pigskin remarkably well for so early In tbo season and with the exception ot ono fumble they played a remarkable gamo. The university team came on the field at 3:30 : and fifteen minutes later tbo Hastings team appeared on the field amid cheers. There was some guess work as to the out come of the game , but a tow minutes' playIng - Ing settled all guess work. Nebraska won tha toss and chose south goal with wind to their back. Hastings kicked off at 3:50 : for fifteen yarda. Benedict returned the ball sixty-five yards and two moro plays resulted In a touchdown. This pace was kept up until at the end a score of 76 to 0 was piled up. Although Hastings was outclassed tbo team played plucklly to the end of the game. Nebraska's Interference was remarkable. Klngsbury , Plllsbury , Stringer , Benedict and Williams all distinguished themselves by long runs. Lelbman'n and Elliott both unknown quantities showed their ability as foot ball players , Lclbmatm bucking the line hard and Elliott making long end runs. Mel- ford repeatedly opened holes through the line. He also kicked eleven goals without missing one. Garrett , the old ' 90 fullback , played at his old position , but not being In condition was forced to leave tbo game at 'tho ' end of the first half. Cowglll played his old position of quarterback. His Interference work was something remarkable and bis placed kicks from the field could not have been better. Score : Nebraska , 7G ; Hastings , 0.

Wlllson , who nro carrying on the present tests , are work ing by a now process , which involves the use of mechanism for testing the conduc tivity of different grades of rock taken from different places Including the deepest hole that has ever been sunk into the earth. Incidentally the process also Involves Inter esting mining problems , namely , the get ting ot gold from very deep levels and other questions of deep shafting. It will probably settle the question of why cer tain parts of the Interior of the earth arc hotter or colder than other parts , laying down rutes of scientific accuracy. The Investigations arc being carried on under the auspices of the Humford fund , and the professors who are conducting them are being supplied with material for the research by Prof. Alexander Agasslz. Prof. Agassi ? Is chief owner of the Calumet and Hccla mine , the deepest In the world. The upper levels of this mine have been worked out , but as the shafts have been driven deeper and deeper , the ere continues as plentiful as ever. Immense fortunes have been taken out of this great hole , and it Is of value to scientists because the shaft being now nearly a mile deep has permitted examination of the interior of the earth , such as has not been had before. It has been agreed among scientists generally that raging fires no longer exist In the Interior ot the earth. They bcllovo that the center of the earth Is very hot but that this latent head Is what re mains of the cooling process which has been going on for millions of years. Like a fallen cannon ball the earth la cooling off from .tho surface toward Us center , but the general pressure on all sides prevents the conflagration from raging within. AccordIng - Ing to this hypothesis the temperature ought to Increase gradually but surely as the earth is penetrated. This has proved to bo the case In every deep hole which has been dug In the earth except In the Calumet and Ilecla mine. Temiierntnrr I'liilererround. In a well which Is over 5,000 feet deep near Plttsburg , Pa. , Prof. Hallock of Cot- umbla college found that the temperature rose ono degrco for every fifty feet the thermometer was lowered. At G.OOO feet tbo temperature was found to bo 120.9 de grees Fh. At 5.D02 the temperature was 128 degrees. In another deep well near Wheeling , Va. , the temperature at 4.DOO feet Is 110 degrees. In the Sporenberg salt well near Berlin , Germany , the temperature at 4,170 feet Is 110 degrees. The Schaladabach sain well near Lelpslc has a temperature ot 135.C degrees at 5,7-10 fcot. Yet thcBo temperatures are surpassed as far as rapid rlso Is concerned , In holes bored In geyser regions. In the Sutro tunnel which does not go far beneath the surface the beat la so Intense that the men employed therein are compelled to work In twenty minute shifts. No all this Is directly In contradistinc tion to what has been found to exist In the Calumet and Hccla mine. At a depth of a mlle the laborers work oil day In a tem perature of 70 degrees , which condition It must bo added Is not brought about by any elaborate system of ventilation. Sev enty degrees Is the natural temperature all the bottom of the mine. Prof. Agasslz hail made some elaborate experiments In testing the general temperature of the mine. Ho caused to ho placed at regular depths a number of thermometers. Ho had them walled up In niches in the rock and left them there months at a time. Thcso ther mometers wcro self-registering. That Is , the mercury would ascend to the point of tbo highest temperature which acted upon them during their stay In the rock but a crook In the mercury tube prevented the mercury from descending. It could always rise but could never run back. So It was compelled to stay at the point of greatest temporaturo. When Prof. Aga slz unearthed his Instruments , however , ho found a great uniformity In the general temperature of his mine. Evidently the gradual rise In temperature did not ) hold In the Lake Su perior district in which the mlna is lo cated as It did elsewhere. \ Why Tin-no YnrlnUoiiNT The question now arose : "Why was this so ? " "Did It not have a strong bearing on the manner In which the earth cooled dur ing geological ages ? " "Could not the con dition bo experimented upon and the results utilized In some economic manner ? " Clearly the conditions surrounding the cop per mines In Michigan was the result of the very low conductivity of the surrounding1 rock. Evidently this rock hod not the power of conducting heat and cold to the de gree manifested by rock In other parts of the earth. The Internal heat ot the earth docs not riEO up through It as easily , for instance , as it does In the rock surrounding the well upon which Prof. Hallock experimented near Plttsburg , Pa. Just what U the difference , however , is not so easy to determine and this really IB what Prof * . Plerco nnd Will- son of Harvard are trying to find out. When they have 'done BO they will have c - tabllBhcd a bails of calculation from which some new facti may bo gleaned and upon which some startling theories may be built. The apparatus In use In Its way la as curi ous as the Information It Is Intended to din- covor. As It itands It Is a growth , os vari ous forms were tried before this ono was produced. The experimenters first pro- Trial Packages Mailed to All Who Will Write-Rheuma- tism Cured No Matter How Severe or Chronic the Case , The Merciless Pains Conquered as if by Magic Even the Trial Packag Brings Joy to the Hearts of Rheumatic Sufferers Write at Once , To fully nnd completely demonstrate Its magic power to cure rlunnntitlHin u well known and highly respected citizen of Mil waukee , WIs. , advertises to send free to nil who will write , frro trliil purknKo of a remedy that cured him and lias since cured hundreds of well known people In every leading oily of the country. This trial package Is not n bait to get people. Interested In something else , but is an honest , whole-souled offer of a Kcmilnu remedy that absolutely cures rheumatism and the trial package l < i mifllcleiit to afford relieve and fully convince the sufferer that the remedy will cure. . Many u bed-rldden sufferer through the kindness of some frlund writing for a trial piicknge lias been put on his feet and now tells of tlio mar- cured several slabs of rock from the very bottom ot the Calumet and Hecla mine. Their Idea was to cool a slab on one side to the freezing point ; to heat It on the other sldo nt the same tlmo to the boiling point , that Is to say , to the temperature of live steam , nnd then by electrical means to measure the slow passage of heat and cold to and from the middle or Interior of the slab. Several slabs are placed In the np- paratVs at once. They are clamped between two platforms of cast iron. The upper plat form holds up a deep tray , which Is filled with 250 pounds of Ice ; the lower platform supports beneath It a. Jacketed cylinder in which rive steam is kept flowing constantly. These platforms are solid , that Is , they nro llko frames , with holes In the mlddlo BO FINDING THE CONDUCTIVITY OF ROCK. that the Ice above and the steam below can como into absolute contact with the slabs of rock to bo tested. Thus It will bo seen that the top of the pllo ot slabs Is freezing cold , while the bottom Is very hot. How Is the passage ot heat and cold through the slabs to bo measured ? Electric Phenomena. This process Involves ono of the princi ples of tharmo-electrlclty. It must bo ex plained that It two metals of dissimilar con ductive capacity are submitted to the action ot heat a current of electricity will bo a result. For Instance , If a short pleco of German silver wire and an equal length of copper wlro are soldered together at ono end and then ilf this soldered joint Is held In the flame of a candle a very auiall elec tric current can be detected at the free ends of the wires. The two wires naturally form a V , and If several of these V's are sol dered together the current generated will bo stronger , Just as will a battery when extra cells are added to It. Wires arranged In this manner are called thermo couples. There are other metals , however , which , when combined In fhcrmo couples , are much moro sensitive , and hcnco produce stronger currents than German silver nnd copper. In Harvard college It was proposed to place a small thermo couple between the slabs ot rock being tested. The couples In this case wore made of thin flat strips ot platinoid and copper , so that the slabs could bo pressed tightly together. Wires led out from the thermo couples and connected with a very delicate recording apparatus. It will bo remembered that the under Bide ot the rock slabs was hot , whllo the upper sldo won cold. Therefore , the heat would endeavor constantly to pass through the Blabs toward their cold side. The facility with which It passed through would depend directly on the conductivity of the slabs. In Its passage through the slabs the heat would encounter the thermo couples and In warming them would cause them to pro duce a small current of electricity , the strength of which would depend directly on the amount ot heat. Thus the exact con ductivity of the rock can easily be deter mined. The apparatus standing an Us table In Jefferson Physical laboratory In Cam bridge is unpretentious-looking enough. The steam which sometimes escapes from the jacketed cylinder rises and mixes with the steam of the Ico. The re cording Instruments are on another table. Near by are the boilers In which1 the steam Is made and n small motor attached by belts to a paddle In the Ice tray keeps the Ice moving constantly In Its compartment. This is necessary , for If the Ice were al lowed to rest Its cooling effect would not bo nearly so great , A great many marbles bavo been tested In this machine and teat of the Calumet rock Is now going on. This rock appears to bo a poor quality ot sand stone , and strange as It may seem in addi tion to Its low conducting quality it Is so very brittle that the very greatest care haste to bo exercised In placing It in and taking It out ot the apparatus. Its human Interest for the spectator becomes paramount when ho thinks that this rock approximately once i lay nearer the earth's center than any other brought to the surface within memory ot I man , I By testing the conductivity of all the reckon on the globe nn approximate Idea may bo gained concerning the length ot time It ban taken the earth to cool. Thus an approxi mate statement of Us age , other things considered , may bo made. The Immediate , utility of the experiments , however , con * I slats In the ultimate calculation of the con ductivities and hcnco the temperatures of rocks and subsurfaces of mining regloni. In some places , notably in South Africa , the rlso of temperature below ground is , ' very rapid. If the true gradient for all parts of the world can bo stated definitely much I unnecessary local experimentation cap bo saved. A miner would know then whether or not It was feasible to carry on extended operations far under ground. Profs. Pierce and Williams expect soon to do this.
