SuoieAtatkE EARTHQUAKES
Ths Ocean Often Takes swIh Rsvsnos
When Struck by the Land.

To say that ship in midocean
might be destroyed by an earth
quake seems parado1ical and ab-
surd, yet it is true. Whenever .
subterranean convulsion occurs be-
meath or at the edge Of the sea the
water will be agitated in proportion
to its force. Strike a tub Of water
q gentle tap and see how its liquid
contents shiver and ripple. Watch
q railway train running at the edge
of body of water and observe how
the water trembles under the con-
cussion of the wheels upon the
ground. Earthquake shocks give
rise sometimes to great disturb
ances, either by q direct jar to the
water or by setting in motion waves
whose rolling does damage, especial
ly in confined harbors. Sometimes
a port will be suddenly invaded by
a wave, the cause of which was an
earthquake, which rolls in upreared
like a wall and carries death and
destruction in its course. 4"
Such catastrophes are not uncom-
mon in volcanic districts, where the
ocean retorts with terrible venge-
ance when it is struck by the land.
That appalling explosion in 1888 Of
Krakatoa, in the strait Of Sunda,
was followed on neighboring coasts
by series Of vast pillows that roll
ed inland, deluging q wide extent
of shore, sweeping away over $50
villages and crushing or drowning
more than 10000 persons. Within
. few years the coasts{of northern
Japan have been inundated repeat
edfy by earthquake waves with SINH
Lar. dire calsmiies, and they are
liksHto oeeursssein.
Now and then earthquakes are
felt even in tho open sea, far from
land. Thus Captain Lecky, 9 scien-
tiAc. writer upon the sea; tells Us
that in one instance where he was
present the inkstand upon the cap
tain's table was jerked upward
against the ceiling, where 1t left an
unmistakable record Of the occur
renee, and yet this vessel was steam
ing along in smooth water, many
hundreds of fathoms deep. "The
conclusions" he says, "were 80
smart that passengers were shaken
off their seats, and, Of course,
thought that the vessel had run
ashore" All this disturbance was,
nevertheless, only the result Of a
shock at the bottom, and when the
norelastic nature of water is con-
sidered the severity of the jar is not
surprising.-"Book Of the Ocean"
