Saved by an Iceberg.

One instance of remarkable escape from
an iceberg occurred to the steamer Arizona
on her passage across the Atlantic some
years ago. Steaming at about sixteen knots
an hour, she struck an iceberg and a fif-
teen-foOt hole was knocked in her bows
The ice however. broke off and filled the
aperture 1t had made-the Arizona was
put about and steamed safely back for re-
pairs to st. Johns, Newfoundland, a dis
lance of 300 miles. When the workmen
set about examining her they took no less
than 200 tons of fresh water ice from her
bows.
