THE BORE AT MoNCToN.
Curious Tidal Wave That Might Pose
as Miniature Niagara.

We had long known that that Gu
nous freak of the Fundy tides, the
bore or tidal wave, appears at
Moncton, n. Band at Moncton
only-with every tide, twice day.
As we stepped upon the wharf one
OF us said to the other, See, there
comes the bore' And there it was.
three miles away, beyond the bend
across which we were looking, a
long, white, level streak, cutting
across the river from bank to bank.
Sighting by houses and trees
along the shore, we could measure
how swiftly it approached, and in a
very few minutes it needed no such
help to see that it came rolling on
with the speed of a railway train,
showing the low, tumbling outline
OF broken "roller" on the beach.
Nearer and nearer, with a sharp,
Kissing roar, We almost held our
breath, waiting for the moment when
1t should pass beneath our feet. Ten
minutes from the time we first saw
it the moment came.
Looking down upon it, what we
saw was head of water, as though
from a broken dam, stretching
straight across the channel and roll
ing, tumblng, foaming, as it raced
along, just as great breaker races
up the beach after its fall. Before
1T the surface of the river was low,
quiet, ripphng gently downward
toward the sea. Behind the water
level was nearly three feet higher
and coursing up from the sea with
the speed and fury of miniature
Niagara gorge. At the sides the
foam was brown with mud torn
from the banks, and all the plung-
ing current that came after was tur-
bid and dark.
We watched that magic white line
recedi1g, twisting and turning as
the channel curved between the
wastes of mud flat, and moment by
moment the level of the racing flood
below us climbed higher on the pill
ing. A group of boys who had been
playing until the last possible sec
ond out on the flats scattered into
trailing lines of black dots, making
for the shore. At last, when the
white line had grown quite indistin-
guishable in the distance, we turned
away. We had seen the bore at

A BLOWOUT"
Origin Of the Word That Now Me.na
Jolly Time.

You have often heard the ex-
preston, We had a great blowout
used IN connection with a dance or
some sort of amusement" said
man who studies words and their
origin. DO you know the origin of
the word blowout" No? Well, I'll
tell you of it. Away back in the
thlrties of the last century the cot
ton mills at Lowell, Mass, were fur
nlshed with operatives from the fam
lies OF the farmers living about the
town. The SONS and daughters of
the sturdy farmers held positions in
the mills, and, coming from such
good old stock, there was sort of
social spirit developed among the
employees which'is not found in fac
tories in these days. From the fec
tories of Lowell some prominent
people have come. Helen Hunt
jackson was employed there at one
time.
'The hours were long, and in win
ter time lamps had to be provided
to give light to the workers. 1t was
before the days of kerosene, or, as
they used to pronounce it when it
did come out, kerosen, with the
accent on the o. Whale oil lamps
were burned. They were lighted on
Nov. regularly every year, and
their use was dispensed with on
May /. twas the operation on this
latter date that originated the word
blowout When the bell sounded
on this day to quit work all lamps
were blown out simultaneously, not
to be lighted again until November.
This was called the blowout and
after this dance or supper would
be given, which at first was called
the blowout Dance or blowout
supper until finally any festivity
attending the extinguishing of the
lamps for the year was called the
blowout So the word blowout
was originated"
