The Tides at Panama. The highest ocean tide In the world is in the bay of Fundy, where it has been known to rise eighty odd feet. tide is found at English river the The second highest the mouth of the Reveln, The top of the Chepstow, and when behind a spring tide a teen feel seven been ob- served within a single hour. The re- sult of this is a “bore,” a tidal wave which sweeps up the wide channel at more than ten .miles an hour and swallows the bare sands under a wild tumble of turbulent waves, The cause of the gigantic Severn tide is Interesting. It is not entirely due to the rapid narrowing and shal- lowing of the Bristol channel, but is chiefly caused by the fact that two tides enter the Severn simultaneously. The crest of the tide which runs into the Irish channel meets at the mouth of the Bristol channel another wave, twelve hours older, which has come round the north of Ireland. These two together run up the Severn. A tide almost equal to that of the Severn is seen in the bay of Mount St. Michael, on the French coast. At low tide carts drive across from La Yendee to the Isle of Nolrmoutien; at high tide big ships sail across the road. In stories of adventure one some- times reads of the tide racing in over the sands faster than a man can run This actually happens in the bay of Mount St. Michael” At low tide there lies before one a wide plain of sand 150 square miles in extent, in the center of which rises the huge black mass of St. Michael's mount. The tide turns, and one sees it rushing In edged by a line of white. A liquid mass estimated at 1.470.000. 000,000 of cuble yards comes pouring into the bay and in a very few hours covers the whole great plain. The distance between ebb and flood marks in the bay is nearly seven miles Centuries all this guif was a wide stretch of fertile land, pro tected on the seaward side by tall sand hills. A great tide with a heavy gale behind it burst through the bar riers and stole 20000 acres of farm and pasture, While the French side of the Eng lish channel is dally visited by im- mense tides, England's side has com paratively small ones, and from Poole harbor to the Isle of Wight the very peculiar phenomenon of double tides is seen. These are caused by the in terruption of the tidal wave by the Isle of Wight. All over the world we find the tides playing the queerest pranks. At port of Panama, on the Pacific end of the Panama canal, you may watch a tide of twenty-three feet rise and fall Less than forty miles away, at the Atlantic end of the big cut, there is practically neo tide at all We have spoken of the “bore” In the Severn. Imposing sight as this is, it is child's play compared with the tidal wave which rushes up the enormous estuary of the Amazon, This rush of water, which, by way, makes a terrific roaring sound, comes in three successive waves, each about ten feet high, and vessels navi gating the estuary are in as great danger as when they are overtaken by storm In the open sea The Gangea has a dangerous “bore at high springs, and the “mascaret” on the river Seine is also a source of peril to small eraft. The force of the currents or races produced by tides penned in narrow channels must be seen to be belleved Every one bas heard of the famous maelstrom off the Norweglan coast, the terrible whirlpool which pas sup posed to drag down ships and grind them to pleces against the rocks at the bottom. The whirlpool as such does not exist, but the tide race between Moskol island and its next neighbor is almost as dangerous as the revoly- ing eddy of the fable The sea here rushes through a rock walled channel at more than ten miles an hour. A sailing vessel caught In this race Is perfectly helpless, and a steamer must have uncommonly good engines to drive her way through it. Between Jura and Scarba islands, on the west coast of Scotland, Is a tidal race which for speed and fury holds a world’s record. The native name for this race is Coirebhreacaln, lit. erally “caldron of the spotted seas.” Here the tide runs at no less than twelve and a half miles an hour, and when the wind is over the tide the whole strait becomes actually a boll- ing, foaming caldron, into which no eraft of any kind could venture with out certain disaster, In December, 1902, an easterly gale created enormous difficulties for the shipping at Hamburg. It took the wa. ter right out of the Elbe, and where vessels drawing twenty-five feet had been accustomed to move easily there was not water enough to float those drawing fifteen feet. All the large steamers in the port were stranded, and some lay right over on thelr sides, The scene was a most curious und amazing one. Philadelphia Inquirer.
