track and field games. The meet was

meet. and exceptionally fast time will
doubtless be made.

The most remarkable iceberg
collision; on record previous to the
disaster of the Titanic, happened
in 1879, whea the then biggest
liner in the world, the sAgizona,
blowing at full speed through i
heavy sea about $50 miles ont OF
St. John's-not far from where
the White Star liner met destruc-
ton the other day--rammed a
monster iceberg.
1t was midnight when the
awful crash came. There were
500 souls on board, bound from
New York to Liverpool. SleeperS
were flung from their berths.
Crashing, groaning ice as it was
pushed into the opened bow of
the boat filled the air with indie.
scribable noise. Ill.,.
Men and Womenrushed in their
night garments to the deck. Cries
that the ship was sinking rent the
air. Strong, able bodied men
fought with women and children
for life preservers and a chance
to get near the lifeboatS. Officers
were begged to cast adrifr the
boats. 49,.
The shrieks of the half clad
