An Omen Of Wreck.

A peculiar inciden. occurred on the
schooner Howard Smith, which went
ashore on Doboy Bar while bound from
Philadelphia to Brunswick with a cargo
of steel rails. The sailors say it caused
the whole trouble which cost the under
writers over 100000. Just after leav-
ing Cape Hatteras an owl came on board,
whose presence the sailors regarded as an
evil omen. Soon the storm arose, and,
despite the fact that the wind howled
and the seas ran high, the owl chung to
the rigging with remarkable tenacity.
When the vessel struck, the waves car
ried away the bulwarks. Captain Cliff
ford and the men sought the cross-trees
of the foremost, where they remained all
night. In the morning the owl again
came on board and remained by the
wreck until captured by one of the
crew and forwarded to Newport, the
home of the managing owner Of the ves-
SELL Philadelphia Record.
