ST. JOHNS. n. F., June 19.-The schoon-

ton bay, collided with an iceberg yester-
day and went down almost Immediately,
carrying twelve persons with her. The dis
aster occurred when the schooner was
about eight miles off Partridge point. At
the time of the collision there was a thick
fog and it was impossible for the lookout
to see a ships length ahead. The Rose had
a crew of ffty-five persons, who were
bound to Conception. bay. The forty-three
survivors jumped aboard the berg as soon
as the collision took place and remained
there for several hours, suffering great
hardship. After they had almost aban-
doned hope another fishing craft hove in
sight and they were gotten safely aboard
and landed. The government has dispatched
a steamer to take them to their destina-
ton. The survivors of the Inflated craft
are entirely destitute and an appeal in their
behalf for charity has been made. Nearly
all the drowned were relatives of each

Steamer Plymouth on Mall Rock.

NEWPORT, r. l., June 10. The Fall
River steamer Plymouth, which ran on Mall
rock. off Roses island. last evening. was
not released this morning as expected. The
pumps were able to keep the hold nearly
free from water which entered by the hole
knocked in the ships bottom. Most of the
six hundred passengers were taken off by
midnight and sent forward by train. Some
remained on board and slept comfortably
until morning on the assurance that there
was no danger. AS a life boat was being
put overheard to take an officer ashore TO
arrange for transporting passengers to New
York, a German passenger became fright
ened and tried TO slide down a rope into
the boat. His hands were blistered by his
rapid descent. and he lost his hold and fell,
striking the gunwale of the life boat and
receiving internal injuries. The Plymouth
was 81 double steel hulk, and only the outer
one was broken by the rocks. She is one
of the finest ships that ply the sound. 1t
may be some days before she can be float
ed. She rests on the ledge on her port side
amidships for over forty feet. and at high
tide her stern water tide is three feet out
of water. 1t is thought that she can safely
go to New York and be locked when

IAN expert telegrapher can always
be told by his writing" said an oper-
atOr to Pittsburg Dispatch report
er. mo matter how different the
writing of expert operators may be,
there is a similarity that can always
be distinguished by i fellow-manipu-
lator Of the keys. 1t seems that
there are certain muscles OF the hand
| capable of quicker motion than 9TH
ers. A telegrapher Who is compelled
to take down thirty to fifty words a
minute develops these muscles and
makes them do most OF the work.
So the writing of expert operators
ha, 4 peculiar resemblance. which is
particularly noticeable to persons who
follow the business. A tclegrapller
is compelled to adopt Il different
style OF writing from that usually
| taught in the scuOols. In The latter
teauty is what is most desired; in
the case Of the telcgrapher he must
have speed, and great speed, too, or
| he will be thrown aside. The other
day a fellOw-OpcratOr and myself saw
postal-card. l had only glanced at
| it when l remarked that it was the
writing of a man who had once been
! telegraph operator. My companion
agreed. and further suggested that
he had received his education in a
railroad Office, inasmuch as he dated
his postal in the right-h corner,
whereas a commercial operator al
ways writes the date In the left-hand
corner, as the blanks are made in
that form. Yes, and he has been a
bookkeeper: for, although the figures
were written hastily, they were in
perfect lines, added my friend. This
all came from our noticing the class
distinction in the writing OF a telcg-
rapher. We asked the man who re-
ceived it who had written it. He
gave the name of a now prominent
business man who began life as a
messenger in a railroad office, then
became telegrapher, next was given
q position of trust where book-keep-
] ing was one of his duties, finally
launching out for himself in a line
entirely foreign to railroading or
bookkeeping. The characteristics
that had crept into his writing dur.
ing his early training were still Wis.,
lille. We bad guessed the history of
the man from his writing"
