WHITE WATER IN THE OCEAN.
ttairolar Phenomenon WllneiMd at
Karl IntervtvU In Sk Toi-
leal nKlonjL.
, t Of the many sights xvitneised in the
oceans of the globe, one of the most
curious nnd most weird is that de
scribed by sailors a "the milky rea,"
rihips being surrounded for kcveral
hours by water that appears to bo a
snowy whiteness. Compiled from ex
perienced recorded during th last 70
years, an interesting account of the
phenomenon is given on the North At
lantic and Mediterranean Pilot Chart,
i The spectacle is restricted to the dark
iness of night and rare occasions, and,
' while it is limited mainly to the warm
er waters of th tropical belt, it ap
pears to be more common in th In
dian ocean than in the Atlantic and
'Pacific. From tic xrhlte water the
light is so strong that ordinary new,
paper print can be rad on board ship,
but the scene all around is of an awe
inspiring description. The horUon is
blotted out, sea and sky seem to bft
cbme one in a sqrt of universal lumi
nous fog, which, like a London fog,
rob the observer of the sense of dis
tnce and direction, the deck being lit
sap writh a ghartly, shadoxvlesg light.
Lat June off the west coaxt of South
'America a bucket of the xvhito water
mptied back info the sea resembled
molten lead. This- curious sight has
1 JnUrested scientific investigators, Dor
vin among them; but while it it, no
doubt, related to the many phosphor
iceivt displays common at sea, there
br no difficult explanation forthcom

Many of our scientists, until qulto

that a number of the lower anliualrt
possibly possess other senses Ihnn
ours. Ho inuoh now nnd undeniably
nfllrmatory evidence Is, however, now
Isclng offered on this point, that
there can be no longer any substan
tial reason for doubting thut the flvo

American.
One such sens not .possessed by
human beings, but to a graalor or
Josu degree almost universally pres
ent in mammals, birds, reptlleu, fish
and insects, i what perhaps may bo
called tho sense of localization. It
cnnhlcH Ih posaessor, apparently by
its sole use, to llnd a desired siot. It
is evidently eloaely connected with nn
instinctive ami perfect memory of
distance and direction. That the
homing plffoon KcrcJses it to mime
extent, though undoubtedly aided by
the lnndinarka it rocognUes, is in
diuputablo; that tho honey beo ha

not, after the careful experiments of
