THE MOST PERILOUS PORTION OF THE WHOLE ATLANTIC. CroM* fnrrentu, I'bua. Icebersrs, Slionln, llecfn mid Every Klml of Slarinc Snare That Kotraps I.urk- lean Snllora AIioiiimIh In Those Wa fers. If one’prtflng of a pair of compasses be placed about the center of the gulf of St Lawrence ami the other de scribe a semicircle from Labrador to the southernmost point of Nova Scotia, the area circumscribed might well be called the graveyard of tlie Atlantic. Not only Is this' part of the ocean sub ject to all the gales of tiie roaring for ties, but every kind of water snare that entraps luckless sailors is found in this section of tlie north Atlantic. The dirty brownish fogs that lie across the horizon above Belle Isle are, of course, the most treacherous enemy for the ocean liner. They conceal tlie other dangers, and the other dangers are neither few nor far apart What with icebergs ranging in size from a few hundred feet in circumference to monsters nine miles in length (the ex act dimension of one measured by the Newfoundland superintendent of fish eries), with naked rock walls rjsiug vertically 700 feet out of the sea. with crumbled ledges whose saw tooth edge stands up iu pinnacles or slopes down to a white capped reef and with the submerged shoals of the Sable and Magdalene island districts the pilot has as difficult a piece of water to navigate as could be found. The perils of Nova Scotian waters can be and have been lessened. Light houses now mark the most dangerous points, and long ago a stop was put to the nefarious work of the wreckers who plied successful depredations, with Sable island ns a basis, dime was, within the memory of navigators still living, when false lights above the sands of Sable island lured passing ships to their ruin, and when the gov ernment cruisers would come to the ships’ aid not a thing would be found but the stripped hull. Though passen gers might have waded ashore iu some places, the dead used to be found strip ped of all clothing and jewels, with the ring linger cut off and frequently the gash of a wrecker’s weapon across the forehead, signs plainly telling of a con flict between the passengers struggling ashore through beating surf and'tlie murderous men who awaited them. But all this is a thing of the past on Sable island. Not only were wreckers driven off, but livestock was placed on the long stretch of grass grown sand, so that castaways could have some means of subsistence until help came. Belle Isle strait is by far the most treacherous part of the north Atlantic route. The coast of Labrador projects into tlie ocean like a barrier against the flinging tides, and when the baflled current linds resistance suddenly re moved. when the narrow strait opens between Newfoundland and Labrador, the waters toss in with the sidling mo tion that creates the beam sea so hate-’ ful to all landsmen. The strength of this ii4>ursting current simply cannot be calculated or counteracted by any mariner. In width the strait varies from 'J to 40 miles, and when the brownish fog, never absent from the northern horizon, spreads southward, obscuring every landmark, it is impos sible for any captain to keep up speed, and retain his bearings. He may refer to ids chart as often as lie pleases and toll himself, “Thus and thus have we come, and here is tlie place we are;” tide and fog may have betrayed him in spite of his calculations, and he may be at least 100 miles out of his course. Besides the danger from fog and tide at the entrance to the gulf of Ht. Law rence there is the peril of long, sharp ledges that furrow all parts of tbo northern coast and are only visible by the fretted line of surface si nay. No lighthouses mark these hidden reefs, and many a schooner comes to grief Upon them during the night or in a fog. The old “rooms,” or fishing harbors, of French and Jersey fishermen have long been deserted in the neighborhood of tlie strait Occasionally a dismantled hut or a dilapidated chapel may bo seen clinging to the base of the rock wall, but all is lifeless desolation. There are not a dozen settlements on either side of the narrow channel, and these are hidden away so securely be hind rock guarded harbors no sign of life is visible to passing steamers. No aid to navigation exists on these bleak northern shores. False cape runs ont from Newfoundland In great. Jagged, towering rocks, torn by the driving tide, and White Island lies off the shore bare and lonely as a tombstone. Afar, from other rocky Islands, comes the dull booming of the surf, which Indian legend of Labrador describes ns the shrieking of demons over their prey. Bootless huts used i»s windbreaks by the sealers in the spring add lo the In describable loneliness of the tenautless coast, and if some fisherman’s dory conies hounding over the waves Its sudden disappearance behind some rocky eminence only accentuates tlie utter dreariness of the whole region.— New York Tost. Snw the Froacn Illvcr Explode. A fanner named Banker, who lives on the Nebraska side of the Missouri river, had a remarkably narrow escape from instant death as the rerult of an explosion, not of dynamite or nitroglyc erin, but of Ice In the Missouri river. Banker was driving across the river on the loc bridge. When about In the center of the main channel he sudden ly heard an ominous rumbling under neath the Ice and was not long In de ciding that something unusual was about to happen. Lashing his horses into a wild run, he headed for the shore, which he had Just reached In safety when the explosion or “blow up” occurred. It Is said by those who wit nessed the Incident that large bodies of heavy lee in an area of about a square mile were thrown fully 40 or 50 feet into the air by the force of the up heaval. The phenomenon Is said to have been caused by the sudden and extreme change of the weather to colder, the Ice forming so quickly and so solidly that no airholes were left, the pressure of the Imprisoned air finally becoming so great as to force its escape in the manner stated by tossing hundreds of tons of Ice Into the air as though It were feathers.— Sioux Falls Letter In Minneapolis Times.
