Dangerous Islands at Last Def
uinifeIy Located.

A singular report has been sent
to the Branch photographic Office
by Captain Pettinridge, master of
of the ship Lock Eek, which has
just arrived at Hiogo. Japan, after
a run of 158 days from Philadel-
phia. 1t points out glaring errors
on the charts of the British Ad-
miralty and those of the United
States, which are the kind gener-
ally carried on sailing vessels. He
says that on January 3,while steer
ing north by west in latitude 8 06,
longitude 1920, he sighted Sarol,
or Philiph Island, a small British
possession in the South Pacific
ocean, about six miles distant. For
a long time there has been great
doubt as to the position of these
islands, as many surveying vessels
sent out to locate them could not
find them.
Captain Pettinridge knew that
his position was correct by obser-
vatlons eff the stars Acheman, Ju-
piter and Betelgenne. The latitude
he found to be correct, but the
ongitude thirty miles out. 1t is
believed that many vessels have
been lost by striking these islands
at night.
A singular phenomenon was seen
on January "a from the decks of
the Lock Eek, when the vessel was
suddenly surrounded by a boiling
whirlpool, resembling the lower
part of a water-spout. In short
time the vessel was surrounded by
watet-spouts travelling in all direc-
tions. One of the spouts was 300
feet high, and another was seen in
side of it, whirling in a contrary
direction. As soon as the gale SUBJ
sided all disappeared but one, which
was very large. Suddenly tongue
of forked lightning from the heav-
ems struck the spout aud ran down
to a point near the base, when it
burst with terrific report.-Phil.
