BULLINGTON DRUG STORE
HUGE WHALE TO BE IN MT.
PLEASANT NOVEMBER 8th
A real flavor of the open sea and
the tang of the deep waters may be
appreciated right in Mt. Pleasant by
going to the Cotton Belt depot and
viewing “Colossus,” the largest whale
ever taken out of the water, tomor-
row.
A ship’s bell tolls off the hours;
specimens of strange fish, odd bits of
whaling paraphernalia, a modern
high-powered harpoon gun, and a un-
iformed staff of men to create the
nautical atmosphere of the exhibit.
“Colussus,” the huge monster of the
deep, weighing 68 tons and measuring
55 feet from stem to stern, lies en-
closed in glass on a railroad car es-
pecially constructed to bear the Lre-
mendous bulk. The whale is in a
perfect state of preservation, thanks
to the newly found method of em-
balming.
Tlie task of moving the whale from
the sea and on to a flat car was in
itself a very difficult task. The car
was built in extremely large propor- #
tions, and then run on a car ferry
which was taken to a point about 70
miles off the Pacific Ceast, where ^
“Colossus” was floating on the sur-
face. There the car was swung ov-
erboard by huge derricks and sub-
merged; after much maneuvering 4
brought directly under “Colossus.”
Then the whale and the car was hoist-
ed on to‘the float.
Educational lectures are given ev-
ery fifteen minutes by men who are
familiar with fhe whaling industry in
all its phases. Captain David Bar-
ov It, famous whaling skipper, will
I'e here as skipper of the crew in
charge and explain the modern and
old time methods of whaling.
