EARTUQl'AKKS telenet it Unable to Give Reason for t'pbeavals. - (New York Tribune.) Earthquakes are undoubtedly the most terrifying trick that our usually calm and benign earth plays upon man. The terrible, tragedy that has befallen our fellow-westerners, the Chileans, stirs at once sympathy and uneasiness. What Is going on deeri beneath these quiet fields and colos sal, snow-clad mountains to cause such havoc? It should be clearly understood at the start that the nature and compo sition of the earth's Interior are al most as completely unknown as they ever were. A hard, fairly rigid shell envelops ths earth beyond question. The earlier hypotheses were all "based pon the theory that within this shell was an Intensely hot molten core and that the gradual cooling of this In terior contracted tht whole body of the earth and wrinkled Its surface very much as the skin of a dried apple Is shrunken and wrinkled. For various reasons the molten theory, of the earth's Interior is to day viewed with considerable doubt. The most that can be accepted Is that some chsnge In tht earth's In terior is taking place which acts-up terrific stresses and -strains upon the earth's surface along certain , lines. Probably cooling and contraction tre the . causes, and molten material la clearly present at certain points, as volcanoes prove; but the precise con dition of the earth's sore must bt left for future scientists to determine. If they can. What is clear Is that this crump ling of the earth's surface which has folded aloft on great mountain ranges has usually taken the place along certain clearly marked lines. The backbone of North and South America ,1a one tuch line, and the western coast of the Pacific, from Japan south, presents traces of slmi-' lar foldings. At a result, the Pacific Is more or less surrounded by high mountains or their remnants, the other great line of folding runt cast and west across Europe and Asia from the Pyrenees and tht Alps to the Himalayas. Now, wherever thess crumpllngs rf the earth's surface have been great-, eat lie the weakest spot's In Its c- ist. When the heaving of ths earth In cludes an area of sea bottom a great sea wava is added te tht terrors of land as at Messina and now along the Chilean coast. Thus, while science has been able to locate the areas within whmh earth playa ita moat violent tricks, it has worked out fairly clear th.nr... as to their manner of occurrence, the oaaio causos are still hidden many miles deep within the mysterious heart of our earth.
