RUINED BY HUGE WAVES.
Monster Ocean Rollers Which Are Caused
by strong downward Currents.

by Strong Downward Currents.
The sea has in store one danger that
| the landsman never sees. Like the
voyager, he may receive a visit from cy-
clone, but he knows nothing of the power
and terror of great waves. Uniting in
themselves the force of a flood and that
of a tornado, they are appalling and
restless. The recent experience of the
Normannia, which suffered severe dam
age, is from the visit of one of those
monsters of the deep, and recalls that
of other vessels. But the Rochester
Courier and Advertiser says this wave
was slight compared with the waves
that they have encountered. While it
injured only several of the Norrnannia's
crew, the wave that struck the Italian
bark Rosina in October, 1883, swept
every man aboard but one into the sea;
he escaped only because he was an in
valid below. A hundred persons lost
their lives from the wave encountered
by the steamer San Francisco in De-
cember, 1853. The height of these
waves can hardly be realized. The one
encountered by the Umbria five years
ago arose to the top Of her masthead,
fifty feet above the sea. Several waves
measured by Capt. Riddle, of the Celtic,
in January, 1875. rose to the height of
seventy feet and moved at the rate of
twenty-five miles an hour Equally
high waves were observed by Admiral
Fitzroy, Of the English navy, off the
Cape of Good Hope The appalling
height of one hundred feet was reached
by the waves that Dumont d Urville saw
in the Southern sea.
OF course nothing could withstand the
weight and force of these masses of
water. Under them the most powerful
vessel ever built would scarcely be
more than an egg she'll There is no
doubt that many Of the ships that have
gone down to sea never to return have
fallen victims of their pitiless and re-
sistless force. As to the origin of the
great waves there has of late been some
interesting speculation. 1t has been
discovered that they are confined to the
temperate ATTITUDES. In these ATTITUDES
it has been discovered further that the
surface of the ocean is often struck dur
ing storms by powerful downward cur
rents. The conclusion is drawn from
these two facts that the waves in ques-
ton were the products of these verti-
cal currents. Students of the subject
claim in support of this conclusion that
the most powerful wind blowing over
the surface of the sea could not raise a
crest above twenty-five feet.

For Good Roads.


The movement for good roads is
gaining ground everywhere. Now
that men of experience and scientific
knowledge have begun to investigate
the subject the immense loss which
has been the fruit of bad roads arouses
attention and people are beginning to
think upon the suject as never before.
The following extract from an article
in the Chicago Herald shows that even
in new states the subject is receiving
attention:
"How widespread is the demand aud
agitation for more serviceable roads
all through the United States may be
seen by numerous facts. There is,
for instance, Lewis county in Wash
ington, where united and determined
effort is being made just now for bet
ter roads. The suggestions made by
N. b. Cof'man, president of the First
National bank of Chehalis, who is the
prime mover In the matter, are the
following:
l. The cost should be borne in pro-
portion to the benefits.
2. Construction should be from the
towns out and without intermission.
3. The roadbed should be of such a
nature as to permit of heavy freight
ing and rapid travel the year round.
1t should have as direct a course as
possible and avoid steep grades.
A. Work should be done only by con-
tract, excepting minor repairs.
5. Primary supervision and con-
struction should be with the county
officials.
All of which sounds very sensible
and fair and shows that even in so
recently settled section of the coun-
try as faraway Washington the pro-
gressive, public spirited citizens are
already fully aware of the fact that
good roads are a public necessity,
without which the commonwealth
will be materially retarded in it's
growth and prosperity. These are all
hopeful signs, and they Enthusiastically
point in one direction-that of a gen.
eral road reform in this country at no
distant date"
AT the last Farmers Institute held
in this city Mr.. Weld, in reply to a
question as to what plan he would
suggest as remedy, said that in his
Judgment the first thing to secure
would be efficient engineering talent;
that there should be Road Commits.
sioDer having under his control or
direction competent engineer to
direct road work in the state. This
plan it seems has occurred to others.
as is seen in the following extract
from the same pBper in reporting a
convention held in Illinois for the
Improvement of roads:
"A definite plan for state supervis-
ion In road reform is outlined by MIR
Sperry in these words: A capable
state engineer, and under him county
or district engineers or roadmasters-
persons who are thoroughly grounded
in the art of constructing good roads
are needed. These engineers, of
course, should have charge of the
roads, construction and maintenance.
Then only would we obtain good re.
suits in the matter of our road build.
