SERIES OF SHIPWRECKS.
The Most Singular Chain of Marine
Accidents on Record.

The most singular series of ship
wrecks on record began with the loss
of the English merchantmen Mermaid,
which was driven on the rocks Of Tor
res strait in October, 1929. The officers
and crew clung to the shattered vessel,
which was held fast upon a sunken
ledge, until few minutes before the
doomed. ship went to pieces, passing
frigate picked them up.
The Swiftsure, as the latter craft
was called, resumed her northward
c5urse, to be fOundered in a terrific
gale three days later.
Her combined crews were saved by
the warship Governor Ready, en- voy-
age to India, May 18, 1880. The last
named, overtaken by a storm, was
stranded on a barren coast her three
crews to man succeeding in reach
ing the shore.
After staying a week on the inhos-
pitable island they were taken off by
the revenue cutter Comet, which few
days later sprang a leak and sank in
spite of all efforts to save her.
Fortunately a rescue ship was again
on hand, the four crews being saved
by the Jupiter.
Even then, however, the chain of dis
asters was not broken, for the Jupitel
just as she was entering the harbor o
Port Rattle turned turtle and wen
down with scarcely a moments warn
ing. Her crews barely escaped wit
their lives. to be picked up by boa
sent to their aid.
Thus the crew of the Mermaid wa
wrecked five times in one voyage, tina
of the Swiftsure four times, Of tn
Governor Ready three times and tn
Comet twice.
The rescues had been purely accideI

Unless competent scientists are at
fault, it will not be long, perhaps
few years before the Weather Bureau
or some other department designated
by the government, will be able to for
tell the weather conditions for a whole
season instead of for short twenty
four hours ahead as is now done in the
weather forecasts. This is a develop
ment that may he reasonably looked
for. One can easily imagine what the
results would be to the American far.
mer if the government could tell him
with reasonable certainty whether the
coming winter was going to be mild
and short or hard and long and whether
the succeeding summer was to be wet
and cold or hard and dry. Irrigation
has not reached the point where it III
available in the humid regions of the
United States, but if the farmer knew
he was to face a summer drought he
could make some preparations to meet
it.
Work with this end in view is being
done by the Smithsonian Institution,
and an expedition has just been an
nouDeed for Southern California that
is to make an exhaustive study of the
SUMS radiation, with a view to Just
such long range forecasting as has
been suggested. The Smithsonian In

result of the past two years OBSERVE

| Good scientists are not prone to make
these promises if they are not in fair
way to fulfil them. OF course the eco
nOmic value of such a forecast would
be immense. 1t would put the United
States III advance of all other couptries
caught up to the extent of making sim
liar forecasts. But almost of equal
value with the economic aspect of the
case would be the prestige that it
would give this country in the scien.
tiic world. The thing is by no means
a scientific dream. If one had talked
of wireless telegraphy a decade ago, he
would have been looked upon as an un
scientific crank. Yet that has come tC

scientific commonplaces. The lone

Consul Skinner of Marseilies says
that the French are making enormous
