The truth Is that when a ship Is plung.

u the same time heeled over till her
rail- - close to the water. tho next
wavs looks as II ii~would sweep com.
pletely over the vessel and there fore

ports OF heights Of 100 feet from hollow
70 crest but no verified measurement
exists Of height half US great MS this
The highest reliable measurement,
nre from A to 4s feet-in itself u very
remarkable height Waves having u
greater height than 30 feet are not
often encountered The height OF
wind waves Is governed by what 10
called the "fetch." That means their
distance from the place where their
formation begins. Thomas Stevenson,
author OF the Lighthouse Illumina-
tion.' and father Of tho well-known
writer OF our day, Robert Louis Steven
son. gives the following formula as
applicable when tho fetch is not less
than six sea miles: "rho height OF the
wave In feet is equal to l.5 multiplied
by tho square root OF the fetch in
nautical miles" Let us suppose Tint
In y gale OF wind the waves began to
form 400 miles from tho ship you arc
on. Tho square root Of 400 miles is 20.
which'multiplied by l.5 gives 80 feet
ms the height OF the waves around the
ship.
Now II 10 we'll known that In every
storm there are occasionally groups
Of three or four waves considerably
larger than tho others Captain
l.ecky is OF tho opinion that these are
CAUSED by the increased force of the
wind In the squalls which are IL feat-
urc OF every big blow. Now. waves
travel Mt rate which is the result OF
their size. Waves 200 feet long from
hollow TO hollow travel about 10 knots
per hour; those OF 400 feet in length
make "a knots; and those Of GOO feet
rush forward irresistibly Mt 32 knots.
Let us suppose. now. n wave 100 feet
In length and 80 or 40 feet high rush
ing along at "a knots. It overtalses a
slower wave making about 20 knots.

GREENvILLE, Va, Feb. "a. 1890.
Our little town was very much scared up on
Friday last on account of the burning of the
public school house. The fire started on the
roof supposed to have been caused from a de-
fectiye fue. The school-house was situated
on a little knoll, about two hundred yards east
of the town proper. Fortunately, the wind
was blowing directly from the town, or. in all
all probability. the most of the town would
now be in ashes. Everything was done to save
the house, but owing to there being no water
convenient, we could not make use of our lit
tie force pump in time to sava it. Mr.. ia mes

the burning house. caught fire in several pla-
ces. His barn, Also caught fire, but both were

two of the stoves were saved from the burning
building. Toe children were frightened very
much, but all got out safe. 1t is to be hoped
that when new house is built, we will have
a better and more convenient one. We IN

The National CaniaaI

The City of Washington is an object of per-
ennial interest to all patriotic Americans Not
alone because it is the great throbbing heart of
the mightiest and grandest Republic the earth
has ever known, but also on account of its ma
terial magnificence. All Americans take pride
in its beautiful avenues. majestic architecture,
stately homes; and well-stored galleries and
museums as things Of grandeur and beauty in
themselves. apart from the historic interest
with which they are invested 1t is hope and
aspiration of all Young America at least
some time or other to visit the Capital of his
country.
The Baltimore and Ohio R.R. offers unequal
led facilities in aid OF this desire. All its
through trains between New York. Pbiladel-
phia and Baltim on the east,a and Pittsburg
Cincinnati, st. Louis and Chicago on the west,
pass through Washington. Its fast express
trains are vestibuIed from end to end and
heated with steam. Pullman's latest and best
productions in the way OF sumptuous Draw
