the governors of vast empires. She IS
required to guard against having the
slightest faint of bodily inirnity touch

Obstacles on the Ocean Highway.

Dangers from hurricanes. lightning,
broken machinery, and icebergs are well I'M
derstood by ocean travellers; but probably
few appreciate tho perils OF collision with
floating wrecks.
Tho Pilot Chart Of the North Atlantic for
January contains representations OF such OF
these abandoned hulks as have been lately
seen. Directly between the outward and
homoward transatlantic steam lanes we OBJ
serve on this chart tho bark Nordcnskj0ld.
Her position was noted Nov. 2, and thirty
six days later she was seen again some
scores Of miles to the east, having drifted
with the Gulf Stream. On tho last day but
one OF November the wreck Of the bark
fngve was directly In tho northern steam
lane. Ten days niterward 1t had drlited
rather rapidly eastward, It's course being to-
ward tho southern lane. Almost at the east
erly junction OF these steamship routes, or
the southern coast OF ireland, an unknown
wreck bottom upward. Is noted on the chart.
Turning toward tho American side, still
between the steam lanes. We observe tho
wrecked briggs Eothsn and Laureta, not very
far from each other. both seen In December,
with their masts above water, as In the case
OF the barks Yngve and Nordenskiold. Much
