That Conspire to Rend th« Earth’s Crust Asunder, Until recently all earthquake shocks were attributed to volcanic mnnifesta- tiona. But often the earth Is agitated in regions w’bere there are no vol­ canoes. Hence the belief has arisen that earthquakes may arise independ­ ently of volcanic action Very often, again, when voleunoes are in eruption there are no earthquakes. Subterranean eave-ins are often the cause of earthquakes. They are tiiecou sequences ot the action of subterranean water. When water runs through lime­ stone it carves our grottoes and ter­ races or galleries. When lu its under­ ground run it comes in contact with gypsum or rock salt it dissolves these substances, and thus vacuums are form­ ed In the depths of the earth. When the water has worn the earth thin tbe earth gives way. and the subterranean eave-in shakes the regions above it. In well worked coal mines great hollows are made which produce similar re­ sults. The layers forming flic solid en­ velope of the earth are neither homo­ geneous nor regularly distributed. Limestone lifts granite, and relatively recent rocks overlie ancient masses Limestone nml schist lie together like folded cloth. Layers ot the same age are separated by abrupt gnfis and breaks by the debris cast out ou either side. The crust of the earth has been com pared to marquetry composed of many parts willed must have been joined, broken and joined again many times. Its component parts ate unstable; their movements nre stHI In progress; they shift, and possibly their sudden shift­ ing cutises tile upper crust to tremble. The best evidence in favor of this ex­ planation Is that tbe great earthquakes have devastated countries where the geological layers show traces ot cave- ins and slips, in Japan an earthquake raised the ground about twenty-one feet, and the rise ran for a distance of 112 kilometers. An earthquake tn Alaska occurring tn 1899 raised the coast for a long distance. Earthquakes are limited to two zones. One embraces Himalaya. Asia Minor, the coasts ot the Adriatic. Italy, the Alps, the Pyre­ nees, Algeria. Andalusia and southern Portugal; the other -zone comprises the two coHats ot tile i’acifle ocean. The majority of earthquakes have been pro­ duced In the first zone.—Harper’s Weekly. 19, The Little Red Hen. A Bumper Crop. At Least He Hesitated.
