The paragraph fead: = “Tourists, fake your chotee: canes in Florida.ot earthquakes in Cali- | fornia.” : The Citizen assumes that at least 999 out of 1,000 persons would rather reside in.a hurricane area than in that locality that is likely to be struck by an earth- quake at any instant. Hurricanes are terri- ble in their intensity, but people generally prefer to have solid ground on which to stand, Nothing can strike as much terror in a person as ground that is receeding un- der his feet. Consider the earthavake that struck Ecuador last Friday, entailing $20 mil- lion loss in property and the lossof an undetermined number of lives, roughly ranging from 2,000 to 4,000. Key West, for instance, isin the hurricane area. So far as The Citizen has been able to learn from oldtimers, only three or four persons have been killed in Key West by hurri- canes. That estimate does not include the loss of life, if any, before the establish- ment of the Weather Bureau here in 1870. Before that time, weather reports were is- sued by the Army Signal Corps. , A Weather Bureau observer in Key West in 1870 gives an interesting account of a hurricane that struck the city in that year, but he says nothing about the loss of life. Highest wind reported was 99 miles an hour. Incidentally, that was the only hurricane, inthe history of the Weather Bureau, whose center passed over Key West. Finally, you have as long as two to four days to prepare forthe coming of a hurricane, but nobody knows when the ground will begin to shake and sometimes i open under your feet. A dangerous mixture is composed of one-part fact, one-part imagination and one-part suspicion. ECHO OF A LOST PLANE The disappearance of Amelia Earhart, famous aviatrix in 1987, was followed at the time by numerous rumors as to what had hapened to the plane and its occu- pants after the take-off for a round-the- world trip. Now, twelve years afterwards, the mother of the flier expresses the opinion that the aviatrix “died in Japan” in connection with a mission for the U.S. government which went wrong. The sug- gestion is that a forced landing, between New Guinea and Howland Island, _per- mitted the Japanese to pick up _ the en- tire party. The speculative theory is tenable, per- haps, until some official denial is made of the assertion that Miss Earhart was on a government mission. At the time of her flight no admission of such a mission could have been expected but, since the war with Japan had come, no harm would be done by telling the facts. Inview of the failure of official sources to reveal any information as to the fate of the plane and its occupants, one may logically presume that there is none. The loss of the aviatrix will continue to be classed as a mystery not yet solved. Over-cautious people are almost as worthless as those who are careless. BODY PRESERVED 39 YEARS In 1910 an amateur mountain climber vanished in an ice hole while attempting to climb Mount Blanc, and his body was not recovered. Now, thirty-nine years afterward, Italian police report the discovery of the body, fully clothed and perfectly preserv- ed in its iey grave. Presumably, the slow - moving glacier gradually worked its way down the mountain, eventually reaching a spot ac- cessible to police who located the body. The possibility of preserving a body in ice is not new but it is rather strange to = of the actual fact as reported from Italy. It is not.only unwise but it shows poor taste also for residefits of a city to brag about its security from attacks by Nature wheit she is ina ugly mood, for nobody ina spnirit of thankfulness, that ope. locality is favored over another; so far as the savage- ~That reminds The Citizen of an edi- ‘torial patagraph that Was published in a New York paper shoftly after the 1926 }on the south side of i fe island, hurri- Key West in «= Days Gone: By CITIZEN AUGUST 10,1999 | Bathing beach an@}fishing pier last night projects were discuss: at @ meeting of the ty commissioners.

Today the club issues an appeal in The Citizen for trees and ornamental plants. William V. Albury, judge of the Monroe county criminal court, returned this morning from a short stay in Miami. Miss Ruth Galey, who had ben vsiting relatives in Phila- delphia, returned home today.
