Chalsur Bay’s “Fir* Ship."
According to investigation« of Pro-
fo«sor Ganong. the traditional ••Are
Ship” of Chaleur bay. New Brunswick,
appearing usually before n storm, has
a basis of fact. It is a heml«phrrfcnt
light, with the flat side toward the
water, glowing sometimes without
much change of form, but at other
time« rising Into slender, moving col-
nmn«. In which an exrited Imagination
might recognize the flaming rigging of
a ship.
The general explanation offered I*
that this object Is a mnnlfestntlon of
8t. Elmo's fire, an electrical phe­
nomenon. but the reason for Its ap­
pearance only on or near Chtilcur bay
Is not known.
