Changes In the Sea Floor From
Shore to Shore.
THE BIG MID-ATLANTIC RIDGE.
It Starts at Iceland and Bisects the
Ocean Down Almost to Cape Horn.
In Places It Rises Above the Surface,
Forming Groups of Islands.
A Hkcfclt of the "liuiil.'icnpo" of the
oconn bed is slvcn by Or. A. 13, Ship
Ipy In an article In the Edinburgh Ito
view:
"Tho pns.MciiKers anu tue crew or
liner racinp; over the surface of the
Atlantic jire apt to Imagine that undo)
Ilium Is a vast layer of water of vnry-
tut; depth sparsely inhabited by n fe
llsh. As n matter of fact, tho whole ol
thl.s Krcnt oeenn in teeming with llfu
If Instead of hiking ship wo could talc
V the iter and wall; across the bed
of the Atlantic to America, starting
from the shoron of western Kuropo, vt
should in effect be tra elhiK through ti
HiU'ccMslon of new countries. Not onl)
would the mirroundli-g physical condl
lions vary as we advanced, but the
animal and plant life would vary In
correlation with tho altering physical
condition.
"Walking farther a.ud farther toward
the depths of tho Atlantic, we should
Boon lose all sight of tho algae, and the
shallow water lish fie plaice and sole,
whiting, skates, dogfish and others anil
cod-would giveaway to the uiegrlui
and the hake. The Ben floor would
gradually change from rock or gravel
or stcmes vto sands nnd ultimately to
mud or oozes of various tints, their
original colors often modified by the
notion of the decomposition of organic
particlo.4 la them nnd on them. All
these liner deposit' are derived from
tho neighboring In ml and are blown
seaward by offshore winds or washed
down by rains and streams and carried
out to tho Ka by rivers.
"The distance to which lino matter In
suspension may ba carried Is very
great. The Koiifjo Is said to carry Its
characteristic mud tls far out to sea as
,(X)0 miles, and tho Ganges and tho
Indus as fur as 1,000 miles. .
"Kxcept In the neighborhood of such
great vlvcin t subaqueous traveler
would soon pass beyond what Sir John
Murray ban called the 'mud line,' n
line that limits ilie torrigenous deposits
everywhere surrounding dry land.
Having reached thin, limit, wo must
proceed warily, for nt tho mud Hue,
At an average deplh of a hundred
fathoms, t.'e sh:ill find ourselves at tho
edge of tin.1 continental shelf, that rim
which extends seaward to n varying
distance from all land areas, tho rim
'on which Great Hrltaln rests. ISeyond
lies the continental slope, 11 precipice
more or less nbrupt and moro or less
high, descending by steep declines or
terraced cliffs until depths of 2,000
'fathoms are reached.
"The Atlantic, compared wlth.thf
other great oceans, bus an uniisunll.f
'urge area of comparatively shallow
water. Of Its total area 2".f per cent
Is covered by water less than 1,000
fathoms deep; 18 per cent lies between
1,000 and 2.000 falhoirs rtnd -17 per cent
between 2,000 and a.000 fathoms; the
remaining 7.fi per cent is still deeper.
"At the foot of the :outIucntnl slope
lies an Illimitable plain of n uniform
dull, grayish buff color, flat and fea
tureless as the desert, mid only dlversl
floil by an occasional as yet uncovered
rock or wreck or do Mrnlght lino of a
recently laid cable. This 'pluin con
tinues with scarcely a change In scen
ery ir In level until wo approach tho
great mid Atlantic rl lge. As llruco
lias shown. Ahls rldgc. which roughly
Msecls the Atlantic, e-ctends from Ico
land ns far south as fifty-throe degrees
of south latitude, wlh a slight nnd
qtilto Inexplicable break Just under the
equator. Tho ridge riui't almost parallel
with the eastern contour of North and
South America, which In turn, ns the
ordinary map will shew, roughly cor
responds with the western contour of
Furojio and Africa. Knni time to time
the ridge rNcs nbovo thft surface of tho
water, as In tho Azores group, St
Paul's rocks, Ascension. Tristan da
Cunha and Cough island.
"Having ascended tl'o eastern and
descended tho western slope of this
mld-Allantlc ridge, we should again
traverse plains of grnrlsh oozo far
moro extensive thnn cny level land
tract known to geographers, and as we
ipproaehed Iho Amerlmn coast we
should gradually pans through, in re
verse order, tho zones of life traversed
when leaving Kurope. On tho eastern
coast of Amerlcn tho Plopo Is much
more gradunl than on tho western
coast of southern Kurope and Africa."
A Queer Letjal Precedent.
Mr. Justice Holmes has tho reputa
tion of citing moro peculiar cases from
tho old. lawbooks than any other mem
ber of tho supremo court Ho dug up
ono recently to tho amusement of his
associates, when It was conteuded in
11 libel suit that tho declaration wns In
sufficient because tho offenses wero
not stated properly.
"That lends mo to recall n case in
tho old books," said tho Justice, "whero
tin Indictment set forth that tho ac
cused struck n man on tho head, split
ting tho skull until n portion full down
on either shoulder, and tho court hold
tho Indictment defective because it dlil
not nllego that the man was killed,"
Tho JiiHtlfu oWrveil that It was a
hair Hplltllng ilooUlciii and ho didn't In
tend it sm u iiiiii, ultbcr.-Now York
Time.
