CRASHED 1ST0 AN ICEBERG. Strong Engines and the Captain's freseaee of Mind Savnci the Ship. New York 7 imet: With her bows stove in, and with her water-line Terr low, the stanch iron tank stcamsr Bzaoon Light came into port yesterday morning and anchored in the bay below Bedloe's Island.

It waa evident that the vessel had come forcibly in contact with some heavy obstacle since May 1, when she left Newcastle, England, on her first trip across the Au lan tic. Captain Elliott stated that that heavy obstacle had been a bngo iceberg, upon which the vessel had struck on the nignt of May 13, when in latitude 43 degreea 53 minutes and longitude 48 degrees 18 minutes. The vessel was injured by falling ice and sprung a leak, but was able to continue on her voyage. The Beacon Light was a new vessel net off the stocks whon she aailjd. She was built for tbe oil trade, and had among other new improvements a large electric light for the purpose of searching in the fog ahead of her.

But for tbia the Beacon Light would probably have been lost off the Banks of Newfoundland. The voyage was a favorable one until the evening of May when it became foggy. At midnight, when the watches were changed, tbe temperature of the water was found to be 54 degrees. This did not indicate the presence of ice in tbe vicinity, but, as tne fog bad grown denser. Captain Elliott ordered tbe eugiues to be stowed down.

The search light, which waa fastened upon the foremast a short distance above the decks, was in usa The captain and Chief Officer Chase stood on the flying bridze and Razed along the path of light which the alec trie searcher threw before them. Twenty minutes after midnight the lookout sprang down upon the deck and cried out: "There's something white ahead 1'' At that instant Captain Elliott saw at the end of the track of light something that looked like a cloud, and he exclaimed to the officer: "My God. it's Then the captain hurriedly telegraphed to the engineer to reverse tbe engines. The white cloud had now materialized into a great ioeberg with two peak a THB SHIP Waa KXaDtNO toward the very center of the peak which lay to port, and which towered above tbe vessel's foremast, The ice seemed to be little more than fifty feet away. Instantly the helm was put bard to starboard, but the ship glided on toward the big white crag, againat the base of which the long swell of the ocean broke with a dismal roar.

It seemed to the captain and bia officer that tbe ship would batter her head to pieces againat the use wall, and the meat on deck stood with Dale faces, and waited for the crash which thay feared was to eend them to the bottom ef the sea. But the snip bad answered her helm mors speedily than had been expected, and sue now begn te awing her Lead quickly around to port An instant later she had cleared the ice walL but she waa mow eenfronted bye a huge ledge which reached eat from the berg. Then came a ehoek and a crash, and tne terrified sailors saw a great avalanche of broken -ice tumbling dewa from the. ledge upon the forecastle head and ponring erer upea the forward deck. The bluff of the a tea mar's bow had track the foot of the ltdge.

It waa a glancing blow, and threw the Bejeoa Light fairly ever neon her beam end Great nmesee of lee, Which had been knocked from the ledge, fell Sale into the ocean, and, after sinking a short distance, came up rapidly aud dealt telling blow upon the aide and bottom of tbe vesseL Tne ship remained on her beam ends but a moment aud tnou quickly ruchted. bhe now began to feel tne effects of her reversed engines and backed slowiy away from the loe-bere, on which the searcher was still pouring its light, and which appeared about hundred feet long and ninetv feet high at the peaks. The firemen and engineers bad been alarmed by tbe shock, and now rushed on deck, followed by tbe seamen who had been asleep below when the crash came Tbe men quickly cleared away the boats aud got these la roadioess 1 1 lower, although they had raceivea no orders to do so. The captain found that tbe vessel was not sinking, altuougu she had evidently spinng a leak. The air was heard escaping from one of the tank compartments of the bold which had been empty, aud he immediately had all of the oocka of the tank ahnt and thir pings screwed in.

TBI nUPS WEEK BTAETXD and it waa found that these got rid of the water much fas-er than it poured into the hold. Captain Elliott was satisfied that the vessel was still seaworthy and proceeded on his course. All hands then went to work wiih a will and cleared away the ice which had fallen upon the forward part of tbe vesseL One of these pieces waa very large, and wonld have weighed at least fifty tons. A portion of the forecastle head had been knocked lu and several piates in tbe atar-b ard bow had been bent Tbe railing above these plates bad been torn away. It waa evident that seeral holes bad been knocked in the steamer amidships and afc Tbs supports in tne transverse bulkhead, which sxlends the length of the vessel, had been twistd.

Tbe weather continued foggy after the collision, and upon tbe followmg day several small loeberga were seen. Theses remained smooth during the remainder of tbe voyage, and at no time did Captain Elliott find any difficulty in keeping the leak in cneck. Tuo vessel carried water ballast, but when she arrived yesterday she had about one tnousand tons more in her tank than wnen she started. 8be will go into the dry uoca id a. aij or two ana wui oe tnorougnly repaired.

For The Sunday Inter Ocean. LILACS. BT rvXLYN CLTKXa TTJaTg. Yesterday, while slowly walking Up a crowded city way. Laden down wita many a pares! I had purchased through the day.

Weary of my long sojourning. 'Mid tbs restleas. rushinv throng. Scanning absently the faces Aa thay swiftly passed aloes, Bnddenly the air around me To unwonted fragrance rrsw. And sweet lilacs, wnlte and pnrple.

Burst upon my raptured view. Ah, the beauty of those blossom To my tired eyes that day; Swift their sweet and subtle fratraaee To my spirit found its wsy. Taa aa if some friends cherished Of a sudden I had met, Bringing back a halcyon iprtnc-time That has powsr to charm me yet. And my thoua-bts went swiftly straying From the erowded eity street, To a cool and fragrant garden, if Where the grass lay at my feel And your kind eyes smile upon ma, Best beloved of long ago. In ths purple twilight roaming.

Where the fr arrant lilacs alow. And yonr voice, than masio wester. Is again upon my ear. Whispering the same eld story Thai forever shall be dear. Thus my purple treasures claspUg, Ooldea hours I live agais.

Care and weariness forgetting. Till 1 take the homeward train. Then I wake from out my dreaming Of bright days that used to be. But the real excels the teeming, for at home yen wait for me. H- STTLI8H XIBDia HABITS.
