NATURAL GAS.
. * - . - - yr . .
How It Is Accumulated and Stored
Tho-Safety Valves of tho Globe.
V
Dr. IT. W. Fnucctt , of Xcoslio , Mo. ,
who has for ninny 3'c.irs been iloeply in
terested in natural gas , its origin , and
results , nnd who has made experiments
and investigations in the oil regions of
Pennsylvania , is at the Hotel Moscr.
iTe talks very entertainingly and in
structively upon tin ; subject that proba
bly occupies a major portion-of his
. thoughts and shows that he has givea it
much careful research.
"Science tells us , " said he yesterday ,
"that the central portion of this globe
is a molten mass of heal , if so it must
necessarily be an incandescent or electri
cal heat , burning in vacuo without oxy
gen hence no combustion. Admitting
this to be the case and considering that
: it least two-thirds of the globe's surface
is covered with water , tliero must be
an immense quantity of that liquid
gradually working its way by gravity
through "the crust of the earth and com
ing in contactyith this great heat , the
natural result of which is that immense
quantities of hydrogen gas are liberated
from the water , and , it being very vol-
utile and expansive , linds its"way
through to the many cavities and cav
erns hi the earth's crust , which are , as
it were , nature's gasometers on an iiu-
jueusc scale , and there accumulated
< nnd stored uul.l under that immense
pressure it must find vent , and in doing
so it is constantly coming in contact
with sulphurous gases , which are also
generated by the internal heat , and be
comes a hydro-sulphurous acid gas. In
other instances it conies in contact with
organic or carboniferous matter ; eacli
having an enmity for the other it be
comes a hydrocarbon gas and burns a
while flame , while in the original state ,
or a sulphurous acid gas , it burns a yel-
'lowish and blue flame. These gases find
an outlet through and between the dif
ferent strata formation of the earth's
crust and in doing so under that intense
or inconceivable pressure and expan
sive force with great velocity cause the
waves or undulations called earthquakes
and the escape of these gases are what
are generally noticed in the odor of sul
phur at the occurrence of these undula
tions or waves Vesuvius , 2Etna , and
other volcanoes are the safety-valves of
this globe , and when the crater or out
let of any one of these cools or closes
these gases have to seek other outlets ,
and generally do so where the crust
may be the thinnest , or find their way
between the different strata to where
they may outcrop , frequently under the
' bed of the ocean. The large quantity
of dead fish seen floating on the surface
at times are evidence of these results ,
either from sulphurous acid gas or con
cussion. The tidal wave that occurred
on the west coast of South America a
fewears since was the result of an out
break under the ocean.
'What other results have you no
ticed ? "
There are many different results pro
duced by the overpressure of gases ;
ranges of mountains are thrown up ,
continents and islands are formed and
sunk , lake ami inland seas are formed
by depressions. With our contracted
ideas we can scarcely conceive the
-magnitude of the work going on in na
ture's laboratory , and only when such
occurrences as the undulations or
waves that have recently taken place
at Charleston and vicinity do we con
sider their force or magnitude. "
"What's the nature of these gases ? "
"They are the most volatile and ex
pansive substance known and under the
immense pressure they .ire subjected
_ to are permeating and escaping from
the earth's surface at all times yet they
are not noticed except in extreme low
temperatures or where they may es-
caps through still water. The spas
modic flow of the geysers at Yellow
stone are identical wijh the regular
spasmodic How of the petroleum wells
in some instances , and both are caused
by the accumulated head of pressure
of gas behind the liquid. There is noth
ing novel in the use of the gases for
fuel or illuminating purposes. I and
others generated steam in our boilers
and lighted and heated our offices and
buildings with it over twenty years
the ' oil . "
since in Penusj'lvania region.
"How do you account for the stor
age of these gases in certain places ? "
"There are no geological theories by
which the storages of these gases can
be located or defined. The underlying
strata or formation of the whole su'cn
or basin , from the breaks on the west
base of the Apalachian range to the
Bock } ' range lying horizontally and
being unbroken or undisturbed , confine
the gas , and only through connecting
crevices or at the outcroppiugs can it
lind an outlet in quantities. Every
city and town within that area can as
well be supplied with natural gas from
nature's gasometers at far less cost for
plant and product than erecting works to
manufacture from coal or other substan
ces. There arc surface indications in
the outcroppings of gas on the water
springs as is the case on the Muskingum
Tiver , in Ohio , on the Kauawha in West
Virginia , and in the Choutaw and
Chickasaw nations in Indian Territory.
The Indians value these oil and gas
springs for their medical properties , and
light their camps by inserting a tube or
gun-barrel in the earth. "
"But would not the supply soon be
come cxausted ? "
"As to the permanancy of the supply
of these gases there can be no doubt ,
but in cases where the outlet- in ex
cess of the accumulations the head or
pressure must necessarily dgcreas. By
proper management experience will
soon demonstrate the supply of any
given outlet without decreasing the
pressure. Where crevices or cavities
may be struck in drilling wells that lead
to large caverns or storage places for
gas the supply will be in proportion to
the accumulations , and the escape
should be regulated accordingly. In
many instances in the Pennsylvania oil-
lields crevices have been s'truck that
Jiave afforded many millions of cubic
.feet of gas daily , escaping under a pros-
sure of 309 to 400 pounds to the inch
through the usual of casing , and suffi
cient to light an } ' city on the continent.
Petroleum has its origin in deposits
of organic matter of a marine growth
of fatty vegetation , while natural gas is
a separate and distinct formation , being
accumulations as above stated.1' St.

The Old Man's Trouble.
Two prominent citizens of wealth
and respectability , about sixty years
old , met at a lunch counter in a saloon
for the noon meal a few days since , as
is usual with them. They rescued a
few pieces of rye bread from the plate
on the counter , painted placques on the
slices with a mustard spoon , spread a
few floating slices of head-chee.se from
the vinegar on a plate , and taking their '
glasses of beer , sat down at a round
table , blew Ihe foam off the beer and
drank a cow-swallow before tackling tho
lunch. I
Bill , " said one to the other , "I have
noticed lately that you had an air of
nervousness and irritation. You look
cross , and I have thought that maybe
things were not going all r.ght with
you m business. Jf there is anything
wrong , and you need a friend , you
ought to know me well'enoiigh to speak
out. If there is anything 1 can do to
help a friend , I will do if. "
" 0 , John , " said tho other , with a
sigh , as he shook his beer-glass and i
watched the bubbles rase : to the lop , |
"there is nothing you can do for me.
It is not business that bothers me. I
am a great sufferer. There is not a
minute of the day but I suffer the tor-
lures of the damned. "
"Great heavens , you surprise 1113 , " .
said his friend , "I supposed you were
Ihe healthiest man in the world. Have
you talked with a doctor about it ? "
"Doctors are no good for what ails
me , " said the old party. "I suffer
from underclothes. My skin is sensi
tive , and for forty years I have tried to
get some sort of flannel for underwear
That would not set.mc crazy. I sup
pose I have spent a hundred thousand
dollars experimenting with underwear.
Sometimes I will see in a store a suit
of fine flannel that is as soft as silk ,
and warm , and I will buy it , and think
that I am fixed for the winter , and that
I will be happy. The liryt time it is
washed the shirt shrinks so I can not
get into it. and it is not big enough for
a child ten years old. The drawers
shrink so they come up above my
knees , they are too small around , and
the cloth fulls , " so it is as thick as a
board , and smells like soap grease. O.
how I suffer. Again I will give the
underclothes to the hired man , and
buy some soft knit goods , and find that
they are full of burs , that seem to come
off the sheep , and every little piece of
burr sticks cruelly into ray skin , and I
not onl - wish I was dead , but I wish
the man lhat made underclothes was
dead , and that the sheep that raised
the wool , with the prickers in it , was
dead. Last year a friend steered me onto
some sort of camel's hair underclothes ,
and when I felt of them I thought
I was fixed , but after wearing
them a day I found that each par
ticular camel's hair in Ihe goods was a
hog's bristle , put in so the sharp end
would perforate me , and I was wild ,
and wanted to kill my friend. I have
tried all the different kinds of under-
ware that was ever manufactured , and
after wearing it once , have given it
awa } ' , until every man that works for
me wearing my underclothes , and I
have sent car loads of it to relatives all
over this country. I am a victim of
"
rough drawers "and sand-paper lined
undershirts , and shall go to my grave
scratching my back and legs , and cuss
ing somebody. Now , 3011 seem to be
perfectly contented and at your ease ,
what do yon wear for underclothes. "
' I don't wear : msaid the fr.end ,
as he enipt ed the glass of beor and
rapped on the table for more. "Every fall
I have a house painter come and paint
my body a good warm color terra cot-
ta is my style th's fall rub it down with
sand-paper and shellac' and put on a
coat of varnish , and I am warm and
comfortable all winter. "
'You arc a condemned liar , " said
the one with the underclothes , and
the3r shook dice to sue who should pay
for the lunch. Peck's Sun.

A Silent Bell.
Something very , very sad happened
near the corner of Monroe avenue and
Randolph street yesterda3 * . A very
meaty man had met three friends at
lhat point and stopped to tell a couple
of stories. A young man , who was a
stranger to all , was leaning against tho
front of a store , bearing tiie general
appearance of one who knew all that
was worth knowing before he cut his
babteeth , and was now hanging onto
"
life "because death refused to come.
Prettsoon the meaty man got off
some pun. and the hand of the weary
young man was lifted up and the tones
of his chestnut bell rang out on the
morning air.
"Was that you ? " asked the story
teller as he wheeled around.
"Yaas. "
"Did I get off something old ? ' '
"Very old. "
"Beg your pardon , sir. 1 will now-
got off something entirely new for vour
be'nelit "
lie seined the weary traveler , whirled
him around , and a stout calf-skin boot
was planted against him four times in
succession.
"If there's anything old about that
jnst I'iug two bells on me. " said the
kicker as he ceased his labors.
It must have been a new thing.
The young man had tears in his eyes
as he steered himself around the near
est corner , and the .sharpest . ears
caught no melody from his little beil.

Capital FnnIIiment by Electricity
There is now being exhibited at Leipsic
an apparatus for putting criminiilB to death
by electricity. So long as it is found neces
sary to retain capital punishment on our
rttatutc books it may well be Unit the elec
tric method is the most merciful nnd least
repulsive process that could be devised for
carrying the sentence into effect. But if
such menus nrc ever adopted in this coun
try the details will certainly not be carried
out in the theatrical manner which com
mend itself to the Leipsic amateur. In this
apparatus , behind the chair in which the
condemned man is to take his seat and
by means of which , as wo need rot explain
in detail , his body is placed in circuit with
a powerful coil there stands a conven
tional figure of Justice with bandaged eyes ,
holding the balance in her left hand and the
sword in her right. The criminal having
taken his seat , the proper functionary is
supposed to read over the record of his
crimes and the sentence of the law. This
ceremony completed , he folds up the docu
ment and places it in the scale pan. the
arm of the balance descends , closes the cir
cuit and all is over.

The Mexican nnrt the Coffcc-MIll.
The San Francisco Argonaut narrates
lhat an American ranchman hndemployed
a Mexican herder. The American owed the
Mexican ? 80 , and as money was not very
plentiful with him began to devise means of
a cheaper settlement. One evening , while
the two men were in the kitchen , the Amer
ican took down the coffee-mill and said :
"This is the most wonderful machine in the
world. It was recently invented in the
United Stales , and valued at § 100. See
here ! Instead of having to crush your cof
fee with a stone , you put it in this way and
grind it tip. I never saw anything like it.
Old man Jones , over here , wants it so bad
he don't know what to do. Offered me
§ 100 for it , but I would not accept the of- '
fer. " The Mexican listened attentively ,
but assumed an air of indifference. The
American left the mill on the shelf. When
he got up next morning he found that the
and the coffee-mill had
Mexican - disap
peared. "You can't place any confidence
in the honesty of a Mexican , " said he ;
that fellow is positively dishonest. "
