for the ship had been in the dry dock
shortly before she left Liverpool and
was rated Al. being only between two
and three years old. They managed to
get her TO Callao only by the greatest
exertion. and many time they feared
that they could not keep her afloat so
long.
When the ship went into the dock
and was examined ii was found that
one of the plates about the center had
worn through. Further investigation
demonstrated that the damage had
been done by a little copper rivet which
had been accidentally left in the bot
tom and had rolled back and forth
over the same spot so often and so
long that the iron plate had been worn
thin and the pressure of the water
had broken through. The mischievous
rivet was there, and was taken out and
preserved as a curiosity.
Shipbuilders tell me that this is not
an uncommon thing. 1t is always Gus
tomary as a precaution to make a
thorough search of the bottom of new
ship for rivets and copper filings and
other loose metal. Copper filings are
especially dangerous. because under
certain conditions they are apt to set
up a little galvanic battery and do an
immense amount of damage.

ALMOST SUNK BY A COPPER RIvET
By Constant Rolling 1T Wore a Hole
In the Bottom of the Ship.
Washington Letter in the Chicago

Washington Letter in the Chicago
Record Herald.
The strangest story 1 ever heard of
the sea relates to a copper rivet which
was accidentally left in the bilge on
the bottom of ship by the builders,
between two ribs, where it rolled back
and forth with the motion of the vessel
until it had worn a hole through the
plates.
This remarkable event took place off
the coast of Peru. Some years ago a
vessel loaded with guano worth several
thousand dollars caught fire in the
South Pacific and was abandoned by
the captain and crew who came ashore
in the small boats and reported the
disaster. Jack Eyrie, of the firm of
w. r. Grace & Co., New York, to whom
the guano was consigned is a daring
fellow, and determined to save that
cargo If possible. He knew that guano
would not burn, and it was his idea
that the hulk of the ship might be
found floating somewhere at sea and
the valuable cargo recovered. He
therefore chartered a small English
tramp which happened to be at Callao
and started out to search for the der
