OCEAN DERELICTS.
Floating Perils That Drift With
Winds and Currents.
-
A MENACE TO EVERY VESSEL
Thoso Vampirci of tho Sea, Some of
Them Wholly Submerged. A rr Oroad
ad by AH Marinar* ? Mathod* of Lo
cating and Destroying Tham.
Today. according to Popular Elec
tricity. there are about 2.000 derelict*
In tbe water* of the world? floating
perils that go where wind and enrrent*
bid them Every sen la made baurd
ous by their presence. Tbey have crash
ed into ocean liners and Into Junk*
of tbe China sea To them all vessels
are alike? something to be destroyed.
They crasb against them In tbe dead
of night, when Inky blackness hides
their coming. Wrecks themselves, tbey
seem to strive to drug all other* to
tbeir own fate.
80 tbey go drifting on the seven sea*.
More particularly they seem to *warm
eagerlv In the gu!f stream
From Cnpe llatteraa reaching north
to the Grand bnnks of Newfoundland
is tbe "graveyard of the Atlantic." It
Is n rolling waste where many ahtp*
are burled It la a place where dere
lict* borne by the sweep of tbe gulf
stream and the comitercnurn of the
Labrador current dart about like an
gry sharks, eager to fasten their maws
on the bull cf some abtp.
In the hyrintgrapblc office at some
seaport tbe wireless Is *oundiug. A
message Is coming through the void.
It Is n message of peril coming from a
steamship It warns that a derelict
has been sighted squarely In the path
of ocenu travel For days the men at
the station have been waiting for word
of tbl? derelict. Its position on the
chart tli.it nil nvurogrnpnic oiorw
keep h.M not inove<l for a week They
have lost track of It Its drifting* are
as a mystery The station men hare
been nimble to wire back over the
*en* warning captains of Its where
abouts Any Moment they may hear
that It has attacked and wrecked.
Rut now the derelict hits come Into
the light The Baltic has sighted It
and sent a warning humming over tb?
seas Now the men at the station are
quick to act. At a word rrotn their
chief they relay the melange to the
commander of the revenne cntter Sene
ca, lying hy. The Seneca has lieen
waiting for this message? waiting for
the derelict's whereabouts to he reveal
ed And now. knowing them. It gets
up steam and sails forth, a purger of
the seas, on destruction bent.
Of derelicts there are two kinds?
those that float observed and those that
float unobserved Most people Imagine
that wrecked ships are ultimately driv
en ashore and lhat vessels reported
sinking at the time of abandonment go
down *oon after That is not true
Abandoned ships breed vampires of the
deep. Kor months they float Water
logged. half sunken, pitched and torn
by stonu. they yet somehow seem to
survive They will live In gales that
send the atancheat vessels to the bot
tom. Only time can destroy them?
that Is. unions electricity takes a hnnd.
Too heavy to rise to the surface and
yet not water snaked enough to sink
to the bottom and remain there, they
crawl along Just under the riding
swells. Their abiding place Is nowhere
Krora the untraveled tracks of the seas
thry may lie curried by a storm direct
ly In the path of navigation. Whither
they go no word goes before them
Thej descend unobserved, quietly,
grimly. Not until they have strock Is
their presence known Then they take
tbelr toll They destroy a ship, and
from It another of their kind Is made
It Is their way of multiplying and
spreading the breed That Is why It Is
so Importnnt thit they be destroyed.
Rut now the Seneca has steamed Into
the province of the derelict High In
the mant th<> lookout Is casting his eyos
on all side* If bo Is not alert the dere
lict may attack those on board the Sen
eca Self preservation Is strong in a
vampire.
Rut now the tip of a submerged masa
rises above a distant swell. Caught In
a sudden pitch of the sea. the derelict
has revealed Itself, from the lookout's
neet the cry sounds The speed of the
S?neca Is reduced. It moves slowly
toward Its qn-irry And now the work
of barnesslni. electricity f?r de
struction It must do begins. From the
magazines are brought mines charged
with sixty pound burden* of guncot
too. Prom the storehouses are brought
Insulated electric crbles and a band
magneto A small boat Is lowered, and
the mines are taken on board. Then
the boat rides over the sea toward the
derelict a risky ride If the swells are
running high.
And the o?'it cohim tne wora or puc
intf tbe mines where they will create
| the greatest explosions. If the wreck
I is snbmerged the task Is more difficult
More ralues must be asod. Exquisite
rare must be employed In their placing.
I'inally tbe explosive charges are con
nected by menns of tbe Insulated elec
trie cables, and tbe wrecking party
draws off to a safe distance. Tbe man
with the hand magneto provides tbe
necessary current, tbe detonators of
fulminate of mercury explode, the
primers of dry gnncotton are dealt a
harsh blow, tbe explosion Is sufficient
to loosen all the heavy power* of the
nasses of wet gnncotton. and then tbe
derelict flies aoart Its back broken. Its
sides flying through tbe air, a acraptng
and rending of placka. tbe sodden
splash as they bit the wster agnln?
the aourd of a vampire dying

Thomas XV. O'Brien of Da?son,
I who recently passed through Skag
way on hit raturn home from ? vis
it to th>t Sound, grows enthusiastic
o??r the orgunttatlon of the Yukon
i Order of Pioneers, of which he la
| the gran d president Speaking of
the order he sajrs:
A lodge whs organised In Seattle,
and given th> name of tha old Cir
cle City lodge, which dropped out
when the town disappeared.
Seattle Lodge No. 2 Is a live
one. We organized January t
with 100 memliers, and had a
rousing time The lodge has ordered
regalia and other supplies, and
promise* to flourish and be of
gtvat aid to Oe North. I look on
the formation of such lodges among
the sourdoughs of the coast as one
of the beat moves that could be
made at thta stage for this region
Thi? many Vukoners there can sap
port many s measure for the good
of this region. If the lodge Is or
the American side, it rao boot
with the American congressmen for
support n Alaskan development
work. If l? is on the Canadian
side. It can do the timely boost act
with the Poralnlon parliament In
many other ways such lodges also
may lend Influential support at
Unit*. When such representative
men ask for something they are
not going to be ignored.
I was greatly pleased with th?"
enthusiasm with which the Seattle
sourdoughs took hold of the propo
sition. They wanted to keep to
Kether, and to hold the other boys
who come out together. Z am sure
great, good will accrue to the North
from this spirit.
i When I visited Vancouver i
found several who supported the
Idea to have 4 Unite there.
The Pioneers of Alaska want to
affiliate with us. hut since thov ad
mit to membership men who were
merely 011 tho co<ist of Alaska and
other pine* easy of accoss, i do
not feel that we could consider
them pioneer* a* a whol\ entitled
to the same distinction as those
who forced their way In early days
Into the remote and then forbidding
Interior.
In Juneau I met much encourage
ment. Many old timers of the Yu
kon are ther?, and Joe Snow, broth
er to the president of Seittle lodge,
is working on the proposition to
take out t darter.
MILO KKLLV TALKS OF
INDIANS AM) KIN KM
The following article I* taken
from a published Interview with
Mllo Kelly, who recently had him
self heard by a Scwttle reporter
Alaskan Indians who b?*om? In
former* In '<Vhiskey-?e|ltng cases
will be convicted of misdemeanors
if a law prop<*ed by Representative
Mllo Kelly and other mimbers ofj
the Alaska legislature is passed
at the initial iesrlon of the North
ern Congress. Since the passage of
the law making It a felony to give
or sell intoxicating liquors to In
diana was patned two years ago,
a number of natives have msd>< a
very neat income from the fees de
rived In thtt cases.
Kelly and other Northerners de
clare that oft-?n when the natives
meet a drunken man they either In
duce the Inebriated individual to
buy them whiskey, or swear that
i he bought It for them, and that a
number of ucjuat convictions havo
been presentee! to the Alaska legis
lature will mske tho Indian equally
guilty with tho white man
! "This natlvo adaptation of the
purity squad method or inducing a
drunken man no commit * crime un
wittingly so that a witness fee may
he gained >s not a wise practice,"
wld Kelly yenterJay. "It la cow
j ardly and unjust and defeats the
lends of Justice, and 1 have been In
formed th u III a number of cas?a
tho native witness* have not stuck
to the facta when giving their testi
mony.
"The fact that ths Indians may
not always tell the truth, how
ever, la not tbe point. Tho fact If
that a number of j,ood men? work
Ingmen of tho kind the conntry
necde ? have been sent to the
penitentiary for giving liquor to
the natives, and this practice of
making It tfn object to natives to
induce otherwise perfectly good
cltlsena to break the law, is going
to he stopped. If the Alaskan liegls
laturo Is able to accomplish thai
result."
