GREEDY SEA
TO STOP EATING AWAY OF MAS
sACHUsETTS COAST LINE.
Government Experts at Work Con-
structing "Sand Catchers" to Pre-
vent the Total Destruction Of
the End of Cape Cod.

When the mighty forces Of nature
combine to rob a man of his heritage,
the latter sets his skill and learning to
work to stay the relentless destroying
hand. There is a heroic battle on at
the present time away down on Cape
Cod, and as to the outcome of the strug-
gle with the mighty and relentless
ocean one can only conjecture, but, as
human skill has SO often conquered ma
ture before, it is more than probable
that in this instance the government
engineer in charge of the work will be
victorious. Storm and tides have re-
peatedly swept through the sand dunes,
and have already made an island Of
that part of the tip end of Cape Cod
between Abel hill and the Point light,
and where the destruction will stop
If something is not done is hard to
tell. And not only is the land being
swallowed up, but the heading waters
are carrying the sand and depositing
it in the harbor at that point.
In view of all this the government
has large force of men, under the di-
rection of Edward Atkins of the
| United States engineers Office of Bos-
| ton, constructing Assand catchers" to
| hold the shifting soil in it's place. Ever
since the memorable gale of November,
1898, when the sea broke through the
beaches at Abel hill, the need of the
| sand catchers" has become more and
| more apparent.
These sand catchers" are construct
!! ed of heavy planking, bolted together
and laid in the beach in such a way as
| as to prevent the waters lifting the
sands and carrying them off. 1t is ex-
already over $4,000 have been ex-
pended in the work and only a begin
| ming has been made. The sand catch
ers" are placed about 25 feet apart
| from low water mark to the sand
dunes, and along the shore great boxes
80 feet in length of varying width are
built and filled with sand. This makes
quite a solid bulkhead and the boxes
being practically water tight, the sand
| cannot escape. In speaking of the
work, the engineer said that the only
permanent way of doing the work was
ny constructing stone bulkheads.
1t seems that the ice of the winter
| causes the greatest amount of trouble
Forming on the shore as it does, il
| cuts great holes in the beaches when
| 1t moves with the tides, and the sea
then continues the work of destruc-
| ton by boring under the sand dunes
and washing them away. The high
tides then rush over the beaches, a
channel is quickly formed and thou.
sands of tons of sand are carried to
the low lands and the harbor beyond
| and deposited there
Engineer Atkins is not altogether
certain of the wisdom of building the
bulkheads of wood, for says he:
''The heavy seas kicked up by the
winter gales, together with the great

quers and prevails. Nothing can stand
against him."
We like this explanation of this great
mans marvellous rise from obscurity to
first statesman of Russia-of the day,
of the century-we all carry along with
advancing years belief in those cradle
fairies. belief that great men are born,
not made. And this picture of the two
gifts of Genius and Opportunity is
doubly interesting.
We must not exaggerate the picture.
however, put Witte in the list of those
that have risen from lowest origin.
His father was an official, his mother
connected with one of the oldest of Rus
sian noble families. But it is true to
say they were obscure, the father but a
minor official. And when White mar
ried and chose as wife a Jewess, men,
Der of the race so unpopular, so despised,
we understand that he rather seriously
handicapped himself socially.
In early days there seemed nothing
to look forward to beyond small posi-
ton in a small town; it is probable
when young White became a student at
the University of Odessa he had in view
some professorship as his place in life.
But he was not destined to the teaching
profession. not destined to the small
town. was to deal with large matters,
have grasp of wide empire. White
was born way down in Trans-Caucasia.
and after graduation from the Univer-
sity of Odessa entered the service of a
railway in the south of Russia The
railway company was owned by the Rus
sian Steamship company, company
that from the first seemed to appreciate
the abilities of this particular young
nan in its employ, for he was advanced
from post to post, at length became
general superintendent
But all was not to be smooth sailing:
a serious accident occurred on the rail-
way, the superintendent was held &C
countable and summoned to st. Peters
burg to give evidence at an official in
yestigation. AS happens occasionally,
failure led to success. The officials of
the ministry of finance were impressed

him, their faith rose; he was offered,
and accepted. a position on one of the
government lines, could afford to hand
IN his resignation to the other COM
pany.
Another disaster helped Witte on, this
time helped him far on. We have refer
ence to the Russo Turkish war (1S77-7S),
and the incompetence exhibited in the
beginning by the Russian railway de-
partment; incompetence and corrup-
ton not surpassed by anything dis
played even by the government depart
5hts which are held responsible for
,WHssia's recent disasters in the far
East. 1t looked as though the campaign

fONE Of The SAND CAICHERS.
mountains of ice which pile up along
the coast, damage the wooden sand
catchers considerably. What ought to
be built are stone bulkheads."
But historic Cape Cod is not the
only coast line which has to fight with
the relentless ocean for existence. It
| seems that Great Britain is constant
ly suffering from erosion by the sea,
and that her island domain is con-
stantly growing less. There is some.
thing alarming in the thought, but the
statements of engineers that it takes
hundreds and thousands of years to
make any appreciate difference in the
coast line is reassuring. Wherever
oceans or lakes roll their waters, or
rivers flow, there is steady alteration
| in the contour of the land. Some years
ago the people of the middle lake
states, and especially the territory in
and about Chicago, were startled by
the declaration of some wise man that
eventually the waters of Lake Mich
igan would sweep over it's present
boundaries and engulf everything be-
fore it, for it is declared that there is
a gradual tipping of the land in such a
way as to in the far distant future SO
alter the present relations of land and
lake as to cause the latter to empty its
mighty depths upon the land. No
sand catchers" or stone bulkheads
would avail in such a case, which re-
minds us that Notwithstanding the
fact that the engineering skill can in
large measure overcome and nullify
the destructive forces of giant Nature,
still after all man is but puny and
helpless before the disintegrations and
constant decay of the elements.

The careless observer might call
Witte physically a commonplace per-
son, big man of slouchy carriage, or
binary features, sleepy, bored-looking
eyes. But in suite of commonplaceness
OF appearance, the man after all appears
tndfvidual, striking, noticeable. That
unmistakable quality called force has
marked him for its own, wherever he
goes he stands apart, a man to be count
ed upon, man not to be downed.
When the steamer bearing the Rus
sian peace commissioners approached
our land that day last summer, and the
newspaper men and artists boarded her,
though there were many celebrities,
many distinguished men on board. the
object of chief interest was the undis-
tinguished looking, the commonplace
save for the bigness-stranger to our
shores, the Russian Serge Yulevitch
White. The newspaper men, who ought
to know personality when they come
across 1t, picked out White at once.
In most interesting article in the
New York Times under the interesting
tile: Rise of Count Witte-A Ro-
nance Of History" the writer says in
his introduction: when Serge Yule-
witch White was born at Tiflis Sc years
ago he was blessed by two fairies who
seldom combine their gifts, the Fairy
who gives Forcefulness and the Fairy
who confers Opportunity. Very seldom,
perhaps once in a single century,
do these two fairies take a child
under their protection, and when this
happens that child, no matter what his
restraints his handicaps, his lack OF
those things that make for success, con-

because of the pitiful incapacity of the
railway officials. They did not know
how to-move the troops, no one could tell
where any particular regiment was, SOL
diers were sent on long journeys with
out food-everything was in a state Of
chaos.
The ST. Petersburg authorities were
helpless. 1t seemed that they had no
one to whom to turn who was capable
of unraveling the tangle. At length
somebody remarked that there was one
small section of the country in which
things seemed to be going right. In
quiry was made. and it was found that
the lines over which Serge Witte had
control were running with no bitches,
that difficulties passed on to White by
officials elsewhere were being straight
ened out. What to do was obvious.
White was summoned to st. Petersburg
and returned to the Crimea with greatly
extended powers. He was stationed at
Odessa, and in a short time things were
running with machine-like precision. F"
White was now no longer obscure,
was coming to the fore rapidly. Again
disaster quickened the progress. An
accident to train carrying the car
led to the resignation of the minister
of ways and means; Witte was ap
pointed to the post. AS minister OF
ways and means he at once began
plans for the Trans-Siberian railway
and later as minister of finance car
ried out these plans. But We must tell
how he came to hold the portfolio Of
finance. When the incumbent of that
post was incapacitated by illness-long-
er to retain it, the car selected this
