So well recognized is this peril of the Newfoundiand basks, where the La- brador current in the early spring and summer months floats southward its ghostly drgosy of icy pinnacles de tached [rom the polar ice caps, that the government hydrographic offices (and the maritime exchanges spare no | paing to collate and disseminate the i latest bulleting on the subject. . That the floating iceberg ranks among the most dreaded of sea perils is illustrated by the fact that in cases |: where vesscls have disappeared from the sta, leaving no trace behind tg ex: plain their fate, mariners usually in cline to the view that they have gone down with all on board after encoun- tering ohe of these inanimate mon- stors of the deep, Such is believed to have been the doom of the fine old sidewheel packet, the steamship Pacific, of the Collins line, which in 1850 was the transat lantie greyhound of her day and wrested the speed supremacy from ves sels flying the British flag. The Pa cific was a liliputian eraft compared with the Titanic of to-day, but she was the best of her kind when she steamed from this port in 1856, carry ing 210 passgigers bound for Liver wol.

Fate of the Narouic. The loss of the White Star ship, the Naronic, is another of the sea's un- solved mysteries, which, in lack of any evidence whatever, is generally as cribed to collision with an iceberg. The Naronic was a fine new ship, hav- ing been in commission only a year, when, on February 11th, 1893, she steamed from 'Liverpool, castward bound, with a crew of fifty-dour wén and a valuable cargo, As passengers she also carvied tem wealthy cattilal dealers, who were returning from Eng land to Americo. - 8he never reached any carthly port and was never re- ported by any other craft. Several nottled messages were picked: up months afterward, all of which werg pronounced _spuriops by those, bes qualified to judge. An exhaustive in vestigation by the British authorities threw no light upon the mystery. They determined that the vessel was soupd and seaworthy in construction and equipment and that her cargo had not been of a character to ignite spon taneously nor to explode readily. The Arizona, of the Guo line, was one of the blde ribbon flyers of the trans-Atlantic course thirly vears ago. She was the pioneer ship of the Guion fleet, then destined to compele with the White Star line in fleetness and accommodations.
