talent it is that youre not on a news paper dr cavanaugh youd be a wow as a reporter there was not a trace of irony in dr cavanaughs response to peters earnest tribute the highest it was in his power to pay were both very lucky men he said were doing the thing of all the things in the world that wed choose to do most men arc less single- minded or less lucky which reminds able later if they were on the wrong track and yet it is obviously neces sary that a thorough investigation be made of the scene of mrs ellsworths disappearance camberwell is thoroughly compet ent to undertake the job himself of course but ellsworth im afraid would not have greeted him with the respect his very nigh taients deserve no peter grinned again res pects for people who come to inter fere with what he regards as his pri vate affairs is hardly one of mr ells worths outstanding traits ive no ticed that myelf well the upshot of it all was that at camberwells request 1 was called upon to fill the breach camberwell has an all too flattering opinion of my abilities but at least i have the advantage of personal acquaintance with ellsworth hed hardly shut the door in my face provided 1 arrived when he was here to shut it at all which in the circumstances 1 thought would he hardly tactful im armed with a deputy sheriffs badge and a search warrant to use as a last esort but i rather think our police friends had faith that id man age to get along without what 1 be lieve arc sometimes referred to as strong arm methods in return 1 stipulated that my services such as they are must be taken strictly rs a favor i prefer to have an entirely free hand and the police accept that little idiosyncrasy albeit with a cer tain reluctance ill bet they do peter looked across at the doctor who had resum ed his somewhat precarious seat on the dressing table chair with a very boyish enthusiasm theyre like the transcendental female who told car- lyle she accepted the universe and the old bird said egad shed better the police if i know them will take whatever you choose to give them and be grateful but whats your idea about ellsworth anyway dees this er visit mean that were getting the dope on him we havent what you call the i dope on anybody yet and i make it 1 a point not to have too many ideas in advance of the evidence the faint emphasis on that we brought a quick embarrassed flush to peters cheeks you know i didnt mean ne faltered feeling more than ever like a small boy quite you wouldnt be here at this moment if the we were dis allowed i did my own bit of house breaking precisely because 1 havent a fixed idea about our young friend but i dont want him to run into more trouble than is strictly neccssaiy so i was willing to take the part assign ed rne in conducting this more or

youd come around before the police got to it and take a look at those breach of promise papers i hope most of your investments are sounder than that one said dr cavanaugh because in this instance youd

recently visited american shores illustrate the fact that water usually plays as destructive a role as wind if not more so in storms of this character disastrous inundations onetimes result from tho torrential rainfall attending hurri- caues but on lowlying shores more damage is done as a rule by ihc great waves and the general rise of tho ocean surface produced by the storm most of the 6000 human victims of the galveston hurricane ot 1900 wero drowned by the invading waters of tho gulf while on the shores of the bay ot bengal in india storm floods have in some cases cost scores of thous ands of lives within the immediate area of a tropical cyclone the mere reduction in barometric pressure causes a rise ot water amounting to twj or three feet and where a storm passes directly over a coast this rise especially if coupled with the normal rise due to high tide would tend to cause moder ate floods more serious floods how ever are duo to the cumulative effect of the great waves produced by tho winds these waves travel far be yond the storm area and sometimes break on distant coasts in relatively calm weather this happened at tho island of santa domingo or aug 29 1916 when hugowaves from a cyclone passing to the southward of the open roadstead where the uss memphis lay at anchor drove that vessel high and dry on the beach the roller waves many islands and coasts of tho at lantic are notoriously subject to heavy swells which roll in regardless of tho presence or absence of wind and arc sometimes very destructive the most celebrated waves of this sort are the rollers of ascension and st helena in the south atlantic they come on without warning and produce a heavy surf which makes tho landing of small j craft difficult or impossible their i origin has been the subject of more or less controversy they have been truth ascribed to earthquakes submarine ft anyone wil tell me how truth may j volcanoes and tic return of the waters after being heaped up by the trade winds but it is now generally agreed that they are caused by distant storms in either the south or the north atlantic the heavy seas known locally as resacas that occasionally visit the bay of rio de janeiro and the adjac ent coasts afford another interesting example of swell traveling for long distances and being converted by the shoaling of the water from long smooth undulations into leaping and destructive waves at rio those waves on striking the sea wall some times send a solid sheet of water 100 feet high the swel lof morocco the dangerous swell that frequently occurs is generally due to cyclonic storms crossing the atlantic from the west for the past ten years it has been successfully predicted on tho basis of radio reports from portugal and the azores of sea disturbance in those regions there is an interval of about fifteen hours between the oc currence of a northwest swell on the portuguese coast and its appearance on the coast of morocco the storm waves and storm tides that wrought destruction in the recent hurricanes were reported in the press as tidal waves a generation ago the use of this term might have evoked a protest from scientific pur- its application to the normal semi- i ists who formerly tried hard to limit daily upwelling of the ocean waters i under tho pull of the moon and tho i sun today however scienco as well j as the general public habitually des- cribes as a tidal wave any sudden ab- normal rising of the waters along a coast or on the high seas whether duo to a storm an earthquake or a sub- marine volcanic eruption thus tho in- ternational geodetic and geophysical i union has incorporated tho term in this broad sense in the name of a committee later organized for tho study of the phenomena in question be spoken
