"SEA OF MILK.”
British Ship's Officer Sees A Phenomenon.
A phenomenon on the Atlantic, resembling a "sea of milk," has been reported to the Baltimore hydro- graphic office by the third officer of the British steamship Asphalios.
Steaming' into a heavy south-weat swell the Asphallon met ròngh broken teas. The water, however, appeared to be smooth, because each combing breaker left shadowless wake of white "boiling" water.
"The expanse of water had every semblance of a sea of milk,” Bald the officer: The phenomenon continued for five hours, throwing the horizon of ink-black sky and milky sea into bold contrast.
