The story of * gigantic -water ?ih>ui,
which chit ted the Cunard Liner Oar^
lunula half am hour and thou auddeu
ly subsided when it waa alui<*at upon
the hard drlveu ship, was* told by <**
ficcra and pasaengera when ahe arrived

volume. For a time they stated, it
stood atill while Captian Melson, after
; pronouncing it a big water spout* or
dered tho lii^er seijt ahead at 'full
*peed. At almost the same moment
the 8 pout seamed to take wing* and
rush after the big ship
Passengers crowded aft. Smoke
belched from the ship's fuuncfls while
the Carmanlii strained every atom ot
her strength to escape. As the spout
traveled it grew larger. It widened
rapidly a/ml toVered high, In the atr,
throwing off spray
At first, passengers thought that, It
was just a wonderful phenomena.
They began to bet on its speed, on
whether it could catch th? boat, or pass
it. Then as it towered in the Cam*
aula's wake, guiuiiu# rapidly it sudden
ly occurred fo the passengers that it
carried certain death with It ? That tho
race was One for life.
The spout continued to gain until It
was almost on the shljp. The passeng
ers, huddled awe stricken, along the
decks watching the oncoming mass of
water. It had onfly to reach out for the
shi|>? and It subsided as suddenly as
it had risen. Five minutes after there
was nothing to show there had been
any disturbance of the placid ocean*
Captian Melson smiled when he was
asked about It. ?
"I'll never tell what would have hap
pened, if it had caught" na," he Bald.
"In fact, I never could have toUk tfe:
would have been listed as missing on
the marine* register."
