An Earthquake Wave Once Crossed the
Ocean in Twelve Hours.
People are apt to indulge apprehen-
sions about the movement of waves of
the ocean which are -erratic, born, per-
haps, of illusionary influences. Every-
one has noticed the action of the_ wind
on a field of corn, and seen the undula-
tions caused by its crossing the - field in
a: few seconds;. but no one supposes that
a single stock has left its place. As
with the corn wave, says the "Brooklyn
Eagle," so .with the : water wave, the
substance remains rising and -falling in
the same place,_while itis only the form
that moves. The speed of . this move-
ment depends o11 the speed of the wind.
