SAILOR'S STORY RECALLED.
Last summer an old 'Toberntory
sailor related to The News an exper-
ience which had occurred on the
steamer mentioned' in the item below,
same years prior to h'er loss in the
storm of October, 1906. The sailor
was .pointing otit the -difference be-
tween guiding a car and guiding a
ship, - The car driver fnilow's a road,
grumbles if every corner is ,lot mark-
ed by finger pasts, and can always in-
quire his way front inhabitants. Not
so with the ship captain. The captain
places a ruler on his 'Chart between
his present position and where he
wishes to
determining go ,
the exact
angle, and then lays his course in that
J: M. McMILLAN, Mgr.
..araimesm
direction by the compass. If there
are turns to. be trade, he may sail for
a specified numberof hours or min-
utes, then alter Ins .course for a given
time in another direction. _ i'•rnpetly
allowing for speed and cross winds,
the ship "will arrive eenactly at the gi-
ven destination providing the compass
is accurate.
In his early twenties he- had been a
vheelstnan on the Jones, which had a
regular run bet -ween the various
Georgian Bay g p orts and on one trip
discovered the steamer was getting
off her course several degrees. Un-
able to remedy the trouble he learned
to set his course slightly off the reg-
ular compass
readiug ea and. in clear
weather got along o.le. 'Running in
tog was very dangerous but the
young wheelsatan still kept slightly
off by the compass. At first the mate
did not ibe.ieee anything was wrong
and severely reprtutanded hint for
altering the course, ,pointing out that
they must be .almost on top of the
Bustards at that moment. No crash
carne, however, and -a little later the
fog lifted anti they saw the islands
safely off to one side. 11 the compass
had been adhered to the ship would
have been wrecked. They got along
for a couple of days in this miss and
almost -hit fashion and all the time
thought something was wrong with
the steering apparatus.
"I sweated some when we found
the real trouble," he went on, "It was
our compass. My partner wheelsman
and I had put a shrill metal shield
over the compass light, something
the saute as the dash light on an au-
tomobile. This piece of metal was
affecting the compass needle .only a
tiny bit, but it was enough M have
wrecked the steamer. When the shield
was removed we never had 'any more
worry" , .
A despatch from Owen Sound this
week says; "Did members of the
crew of a fishing tug bring by train
the bottom of Georgian Bay relics of
the steamer Tones, wrecked more than
twenty years ago, when, in drawing
sonic nets off Jackson's Cove, at a
point between Barrow- Island and the
Cove of C.ark, recently, they found in
one of them what they determined
wMS a portion of the bone of a human
shoulder and a piece - of oilcloth,
which appeared to be the type used
for table decoration of lake -going
craft? Whether or not the bottom of
the bars yielded up grin reminders of
that disaster, or whether ornot they .
belong to some other craft, old-+titn-
ers are now discussing the grim facts,
and many ,profess to +believe that the
portion of a skeleton—for that is
what the fishermen claim the bone
was—and the piece of oilcloth really
belonged to a member of the ill -'fated
crew and to the boat itself. The grins
relics came up in a net which had
been taken out of fifteen fathoms of
water and the unusual objects inane-
d'iately;attracted attention. The Titres
disappeared somewhere off the shore
in the bay; no one can fix the exact
spot, and all agree, that in setting that
particular net the fishermen happened
on the spot where the hulk lies. Mr.
Crawford of Wiarton, son of the late
skipper of the Jones, visited here
since e a nd took' home the bit Of oil-
cloth."
