Devised PlimsoIl,s Mark,

Samuel PlimSoll, who died the other
day at Folkstone, Eng, was the origin
ator of the famous "PlimsolTs Mark"
which prevents the overlooking of ships
and which appears On every merchant
vessel sailing under the British flag.
By a horizontal line the statutory
deck line Is marked, below which is a
disk II inches In diameter, through
which passes a horizontal line IS inches
long. Twenty-one inches forward Of
the center of the disk Is a vertical line,
with a horizontal line extending toward
the disk, which is marked ST. W"
fresh water. To the right of the
vertical line are four horizontal lines
marked "I. S." Qndian summer), 49,"
{summer), "W." (winter), "W. N. A"
winter North Atlantic), which indicate
the depth of water the ship is permitted
to load to in different seasons.
The fresh-water mark permits ships
to load to that depth or its proportion
at certain seasons, as the ship rises In
the more buoyant salt water.
In accordance with the regulations
made by the British Board Of Trade
the disks and lines must be permanent
ly marked by punch marks or cutting
and painted white, thus preventing any
change of the mark. The Noyds
agency prescribes that where a vessel
is loaded to a greater draft Of water
than allowed by the mark, or If the
maximum load draft be placed higher
than the position assigned by Lloyds,
the vessel forfeits her character in the
register. The disks and Plimsoll mark
must appear on both sides Of steam and
sail vessels.
