It is promised by srlentlata of hlth position that the Internal hsat ot the earth may lie utilized as a eource of Industrial power ID tlie near future* A comparison qf underground temper ature has tx-en' made recently and • theoretical Increase of one degree for evory sixty leet has been determined. Hut there are exceptions to tbe rule which proves that tbe earth's crust la hotter In some plane* than In nth em A thermomteer lowered Into the wells near IMttslmrg and Wheeling showed an Increase for every Afty feet The temiMtrature of the Htta burg well at the bottom was 1% de grees On the otfier band, l*rofeseor Agassi/ found the temperature at the t.IHXt foot level In the (Jaluuiot and Mecla mine, at Houghton, Mich ~ to bs no more than l(Mi degrees. The Hchla donlMU'b well shows a temperature of 13ft decrees at the bottom, and tbe Sperenlierg well UK degrees. The Cornwall mines show a temperature ot 1(M" degreee. and at Honchainp, France, the temperature of the ooal mines at 3,009 feet Is 117 degrees, if Is proved beyond doubt that, alt ho ug a varies in different localities, the heat oi tbe crust of the earth grows grad ually greater from the surface Inward, and upon this argument Is the theory based for a new and general source of power- It Is not merely a question of got tlng steam, but a question of tbe quan tity of steam to be bad According to rrOfessor ilullock. ot Columbia, hot water IK even now drawn from a wull and used to heat a house noar Holse City, Idaho. Water pumped from tbe I'lttshiiig well was too hot to ke«p the hand lu It, for it bail a tempera ture of 130 degrees liut, while the I'lttsburg and Wheeling wells are callable of beating water whleb has been In them over night, even If their depth Is sufficient to turn that water to steam. It would require many hours of heating , which would rob It of all commercial value . The great difficult)' is not lu obtalulng steam Irom the Interior of the earth, be cause that luvolves merely a little extra latMir lu boring down Into the hot aree. aud It Is comparatively a* easy , to liore down ten thousand feet us sli thousand, but In order to give the steam commercial value a method must lie provided for dropping the v» tter t> ihc hot area, allowing -it time to heat, and yet having It return ed Ui the earth's surface without Inter rupting its (low for a moment - Suppose two boles were bored dW recti) into the earth's surface, twelve thousand fert deep aud fifty feet apart. According to the measurements made In the I'lttsburg well, at the bottom there would be a temperature of more than 24' i degrees -far above the boll ing point of water. If very heavy charges of dynamite or some other teavy explosive were to he lowered to the bottom of each hole and ex ploded simultaneously, and (fee pro cess repeated many times, the two boles might have a sufficient connec tion established The rocks would j be cracked and Assured In all d|r»c- j tions, ax in deep oil wells when they 1 are shot. It oQly one avenue were oiiened between the hole* It would be enough The shattering of the rock* around the base of the holes Would twlfr the surrounding area Into an Immense hot water heater The water poured down one hole In the earth would circulate through the qraoks and (te nures, the temperature of which would he heated and turned to steam, which would pass through the earth's sur face through the second hole. The pressure of such a column of steam would t>e enormous. Aside from the Initial velocity of the steam, the de scending column of the cold water would exert a pressure of at ieaaf live thousand pounds to the square Inch, which would drive up through the second hole everything movable, 'this done, the water heater would op erate itself and a source of power be established which would surpass any thing now In use. As an undertaking It would not be' beyond our present standard of coat and enterprise Judged by the Pitta* i.urg and Wheeling wella, two such deep boles would coat about tIO.OOO * mile, so that the plan might possibly be carried oat for about $50,000. The benefit to science would be many times that amount. It might no* be neces sary to go far The eetimate Of depth Is based on the Pittsburg dlstriot, hut there are many places where the In crease of bwt would t» mnqh more rapid. The Tel lows tone Valley would almost surely yield commercial tem perature at comparatively shallow depth* Fads of Quae we.
