Hailstorm Records.

CLAIMS are being made that 1925
~ Will be without a summer" as
was the year 1918. when frosts oc-
CURED in every month. Following
sudden changes of temperature this
fall that caused unexpected storms
in various parts of the country, the
American Nature Association Of
Washington issued a statement in
regard to the damage done by hail
stones which reaches a total OF $780,
100000 year throughout the world.
The most famous of destructive
hailstorms, the association says. in
recalling the storms in France this
past summer, occurred on July 10.
1888. Beginning in the center OF
France in the early morning, it
passed northward In two parallel
bands, about IL miles apart, crossed
Belgium. and finally died out in Hol-
land in the afternoon. The western
band was about 10 miles wide and 420
miles long; the eastern, miles wide
and nearly 500 miles long. Darkness
preceded the storm. No less than
l,o3s communes in France suffered
and the total loss was nearly $1,000
600. 1t Is said that the distress oc-
casioned by this storm hastened the
outbreak of the French Revolution.
The question always asked after a
severe hailstorm is: How big were
the hailstones?" In answering this
question 1t Is important to distin-
guish between the size of the stones
as they fell and that of the Jumps
of ice subsequently found on the
ground.
Many small hailstones lying close
ly packed together may readily
coalesce into a single mass, and this
doubtless explains some of the re-
markable stories that have been told
of enormous hailstones.
The greatest possible size Of fall
ing hailstone cannot be definitely
stated. but there are many trust
worthy records of stones weighing
more than pound.
Hailstones Weighing a pound and
half fell in Natal on April II, 1874,
passing through a corrugated iron
roof as IL 1t had been made OF paner.
At Cazola. Spain. on June Is; 1929,
houses are said to have been crushed
under blocks Of ice, some Of which
weighed four and half pounds. In
October, 1914, hailstorm at Cette.
France, wrecked houses and sank ves-
sells.
Cases in which human beings have
been killed or badly injured by hail are
very rarely reported, according to the
American Nature Association, and
| strange to say, the great majority of
| these reports have come from India
The most remarkable case on record
occurred in the Moradabad district on
May I. 1888, when about $50 persons
perished in a hailstorm. While some Of
the victims were killed outright by fall
ing hailstones. many probably died Of
exposure owing to the severe cold at
tending the storm.

canal by creating a great artificial
lake (Gatun) containing 164 square
miles with water level 85 feet above
sea level by damming the outlet of
the River ChagreS and confining the
stream in a basin between the hills.
The waters of Gatun have been ex-
tended at the lake level through the
continental divide by a long deep cut
(the Culebra). which thus becomes a
part of the lakes area. Thus at the
Atlantic end of Gatun Lake a small
mountain has been erected to dam
the Chagres River and at the Pacific
end of the lake a small mountain has
been removed by cutting canal
channel through the continents back
bone. Lake Gatun. as large as two
or three Lake Georges or Loeb Lo-
monds or Lake Lucernes, as large as
Como. Lugano and Maggiore COM
bined, is the largest artificial lake in
the world. It's Atlantic dam, 5000
feet long. lis feet high, 1000 feet
wide at the base and 100 feet wide
at It's top. Is the largest dam in the
world. The Gatun locks, which raise
ships to and lower them from the
lakes S5-foot level, are the largest
locks in the world.
When I crossed the isthmus by rail
in 1910 on my way to South America
the waters of the Chagres had not
yet been turned into the basin of the
lake, though Culebra cut had been
dug and Gatun dam had been built;
and, seen from below from the bot
tom of the future lake, the dam tow
cred immense and mountainous, more
impressive by far than as viewed to-
day from our steamer on the lakes
surface.
One Of the strongest impressions
of our whole trip is that of the
vastness of the canal project, of the
work which Uncle Sam has done on
the isthmus and of the world in
nuencing results which flow from the
canals completion.
A Heatless Equator.
In crossing the equator off the West
coast of South America, where the
Humboldt current from the South
Pole combined with icy winds from
the neighboring snow-topped Andes
to paralyze and subjugate 1t the nov
city of heatless equator Is discover
ed. AS our steamer approached the
equator from Panama the sea water
in the baths and the atmosphere grew
colder and colder as, IL the South Pole
had ousted the equator and occupied
the vacancy.
The same topsy-turvy climatic con-
ditions affect Lima, which though in
the torrid zone lacks torridity: it Is
on-tropical, though in the tropics,
nearer the equator than Madras in
India, or Bahia in Brazil, much nearer
than Rio. In unique possessions Lima

and their hair as wool. The llama, as
have said, is also a burden-carrier
and general utility animal. 1t strikes
and quits work if called on to carry
over 100 pounds of burden, and spits
in defense or attack. These curious
and distinctive animals give to the
plateau a needed touch of the strange
and foreign.
Another unique feature of the
plateau is the balsa, or native
boat, of Lake Titicaca, made
of lake reeds, Of which a great
abundance may be seen growing at
the waters edge. These reeds are
woven into water-tight rolls, which
are bound together in a kind of raft,
