Three Successive Waves, Each Ten
Feet High, Fling Themselves In a
Roaring Mass Upon the Great River.
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.
