Sea.
However uninteresting the monthly
budget of weather reports furnished to
seamen by the photographic Office may
ordinarily be 70 landsmen, the data
gathered by Lieut.. G. c. Hanus of the
United States steamship Enterprise
regarding recent norther at Colon
tell a picturesque story of a battle
between aerial giants. 1t happened at
a certain time that a vast cyclone or
storm area (area of low pressure, the
report calls itl was sweeping along to
the westward just north of the equator.
Within a circle many hundreds of
miles in diameter the wind drove
around and around under lowering
skies and with increasing speed until
the vortex was reached. when the
hurrying vapors that had been carried
along were suddenly released to shoot
up in vast column and float away in
feathery clouds that told the story of
their origin to a practieed eye thou
sand miles away.
As this storm came whirling with its
heavy northeast gales in advance
across the Caribbean sea an anti
cyclone or area of high pressure was
developed over the broad prairies Of
Texas. Its course was easterly and its
pathway was swept by heavy gales
from the northwest. 1t was inevitable
that the two giants of the air should
meet Such giants often do meet, and
in the conflict that follows. ships and
sailors and every living thing beneath
suffer in wind and rain or snow for
many days before one or the other
yisids or is worn out.
But when these two giants met they
for time joined hands in their efforts
to clear the sea of ships. The gale
from the northwest met the breath of
the cyclone coming from the northeast
fairly over the Yucatan straits between
Cuba and the mainland. The two
winds became one that headed directly
south. With growing force they drove
the great waves before them and sent
the dogs before their master" The
vessels in every port along the 18TH
milan coast slipped from their moorings
and fastened into open water and there
made everything snug for the hurri-
cane that came down upon them a few
hours later. For twenty-four hours
they were tossed about Sin the sever
est weather experienced for years,
and then the anti-cyclone triumphed.
though badly worn by the conflict, and
dragged itself off across the Florida
peninsula and disappeared.
How some ships failed to get to see
and so were driven ashore, while
others that got away did not and never
will return, is story that will only be
completed when the insurance com
panies are finally called on to pay for
the vessels marked missing in then
annual reports.

a revolver as If it were rifle; that is,

in shooting from horseback, much bet
ter results are obtainable in this way.
A man throwing stone does not look
at his hand; neither does billiard
player sight along his cue. The same
rules apply to the use of short weapons.
Ihave seen men trained to shoot ex-
cellently at mark when they could
not see their pistol sights at all. Pieces
of pasteboard were fastened just in
front Of the cylinders, which effectually
prevented the men from using their
foresights. and greatly increased the
rapidity as well as the accuracy, OF
their fire. Nearly any one can sight
a pistol correctly, the inaccuracy oil
the aim being due to trembling of the
hands before the trigger is pressed.
BY hiding the sight the temptation to
hold too long is removed, and the first
aim, generally the most accurate. is
preserved"
