Braxr, Guavesesp Bar, New Yorx, April 26, 1893. Of all the picturesque characters that con- tribute to the world’s welfare and civilization Rone are more attractive than the jolly Jack ‘Tar. There are 630 of them on board the Blake, and as the bluejadfct is such a generally popular individual it may be worth while writ- ing a few lines about the British specimens which have contributed so materially to the success of the rendezvous and the great Co- Tumbian naval parade. Of all the many inter- esting things on board the Blake none hate in- terested me nearly so much as the “common” eailor. And when I say “common” I do not mean just what I say. The common sailor is he who in the aggregate composed the great bulwark from behind which | England has succesafully defied all ri- | vals. Ho and his thousands of barefooted | messmates aro the hearts of oak, of song and story and history. One of the first things that struek me on looking at the crew of this great ship was the evident fact that every man was British. In our navy a dozen nationalities aro represented on every vessel, but in the English service it is » very raro thing, indeed, to find ‘& foreigner. Occasionally you may discover one serving her majesty as a marine, but never among those who are rated as English seamen. ‘A litde conversation with the binejackets develops the further fact that » majority of them were born in the rural districts, and that of those who were city bred most of them had their homes in London. That English ships are ‘weil manned is not at all surprising, for every seaman on beard commenced to work in the service as a boy at the age of fifteen. The yale is inexorable. After passing a suii- cient physical and mental examination the boys are sent to one of the training ships, which aro stationed at Portsmouth, Plymouth, Falmouth _ and Portland. The course of training in these | + ships will oceupy the boy’s mind and sole at- | tention for thirteen or fourteen months, and | when he is considered to be in antisfactory ehape he is placed on board a seagoing train- ing ship, and there for three months gives his ‘entire attention to the details of his work He is then ready for active service, but will remain on the ship until called for, and when he has been drafted continues his studies in seaman- ship, knotting, splicing. in learning the ship's routine and in generally improving his educa- tion until he reaches the age of eighteen. when he is rated san ordinary seaman and is paid the sum of 30 centsaday. For six months, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less, ‘ho serves in this class and then is examined in the various branches of seamanship and as to his knowledge of gunnery, which for some time pre- viously he is sup; to have studied to a con- iiderablo extent Providing that he passes this examination satisfactorily he is rated as an able seaman and receives the sum of 33 cents r day,with perhaps 2 cents per day additional Eecause’ he ins qualified ass trainod man, Providing he is of a very good character he is then eligible for the gunnery training schools,of which there are several, and in which if admitted he must spend about eleven months. Should he graduate from one of these in the first class he will receive 8 cents per day extra and in the second class 4 cents day. The jo school is then open to im. ‘There he will have to remain only four months, and should he receive a first-class certificate he will bo entitled to 4 cents extra day, but supposing he cones out in| Se mecca clase ho ts chagly = trpate men without any extra pay. If he should come out ofone of these examinations with a rating as first-class seamen-gunner he may then, and probably will, pay particular attention to marksmanship, for the best marksmen in- variably secure the captaincy of a gun, and gun captains get an increase of four cents per day in pay. ‘There is, after he has become gun captain, the possibility of his reaching the po- of gunnery instructor. That has the ad- vantage of a daily attachment of sixteen cents extra and places him where he can start out to beagunner. Before that elevation is reached, however, there is another examination—gun- nery and navigation and seamanship. The ilities aro that he cannot achieve this for three years or so after being appointed to the next grade-below, but when he does get there he becomes a warrant officer and will re- ceive steady pay of $1.50 per day, with extras fhat ran it up to from 22 to $2.25 Similar pay is given the boatswain (whose specialty is sea- manship) and the signal boatswain (who has to be an expert in signals and navigation). Piambers, carpenters and stokers may foin the service from tho age of eighteen years and = upward, but the others named, with the armorer, who joins the armorer’s crew, becomes an armoter’s mate and finally graduates as an armorer, ave to enlist- as boys and must go through the regular course of training. ‘The term of enhstment is twelve years from the age of eighteen and only those can enlist who have gone through the prepaartory course of three Years previously ontlined. After serving six years, ‘or one-half of the first enlistment, a man can . purchase his discharge at a cost of about $60, The becervesantdl te & thirty years of age he can then “compete for pension” (for pea- sions are given when men have been in the service twenty years), and when the eight years or the second term of enlistment commences he gets 4 cents a day extra and receives a gratuity of $17.50. ONE Day's stony. ‘The daily routine of the ship is rather inter- esting. In such an enormous concern as this is with 650 pairs of hands to be kept busy it is really a matter of prime importance that Satan should not find an opportunity to provide em- ployment for the hands to do. Everybody is called at 5:15 in summer time and 6 in winter. ‘The first thing to be done on the summer morn- ing is the scrubbing of the upper deck. and | then, at 6:30, follows breakfast. This consists of chocolate and bread, and half an honr is allowed for the consumption of food. Then the forenoon watch on deck, dressed in the “rig | of the dar"—it may be either bine or white— | engages itself in cleaning the brass work while | the watch below tidies uv everything on the next deck. Both watches cease cleaning | at 3 o'clock, and then, when the watch below bas donned the rig of the day, everybody cleans guns for half an hour. Following this they ‘stand easy” for fifteen minutes, and during this time absorb such cof- fee and ‘other food 2s may be supplied by the various messes. The material is purchased from the dry canteen—so called because there | are no liquors sold there—and the account is | rendered to the caterer of each mess at the end | of eve nih. He pays the bill and gener-|{ aliy ha*a sufficiency of mouey on hand to sat- | isfy the appetites for at least a portion of the following month. The cash he so disburses as been saved on rations, for none of the men ever eat all the beef and biscuit issued them. ‘They do get away with the bread, though. when they are near enough shore to have bread issued them. When a mess does not draw all the beef or bread to which it is entitled it receives in place of the issue Scents per pound for beef makes his rounds and sees that all lights in the store rooms are out and that there is not any- where danger of fire. The chances are against conflagrations in vessels like these just now here for the reason that electricity is used in every part of the ship. Most of the men turn in about 9 o'clock, but they can stay up till 10 if they want to. When 10 o’clock comes, how- ever, then everybody is piped down off the upper deck except those who have to stay there for duty. LEAVE OF ABSENCE. The matter of getting shore-leave is one of order that every one may be justly dealt with a ship's crew is divided into threoclasees forleave yurposes. On foreign stations the crews are Yiviled Into two weiches. In England’ into five. Most men are started out as members of the first class; they certainly are if they have good records as boys. These first-class men have leave every alternate night. Sometimes they get off as early as 2 o'clock in the after- noon, and when their ships are lying in ports where the men can be accommodated with sleep- ing quarters they may stay ashore until 6 o'clock the following morning. Where there is no accommodation they must be on board by 11 of that samo night. ‘The second-class men can only get leave once a week, and that they do not got it oftener is due to some fault of their own. In the third-class, which is a most undesirable thing to be a member of, nobody secures leave privileges oftener than once a month. But man has to be pretty bad to get into the third division. _ OFFENSES AND PUNISHMENTS. Of course there are lots of offenses in such a great community as is to be found on board the Blake. Where there aré five or six hundred men gathered together there must necessarily be more or less of mischief, and as mischief cannot continue without da to the servico it haa to be stopped by punishment. Leave breaking is the commonest as well as the worst offense, and is the one most severely repressed. For every break of six hours or under a first class man will be put in the second elass and be fined one day's pay; for every six hours addi- tional or fraction of six hours he is mulcted in an additional day’s pay, and for every separate hour he is docked one turn of leave, so that asix hours’ break would keep him aboard twelve days. If the offender was in the second class when he committed the offense he might possibly be dropped to the third-class, and nothing more disagreeable than that could hap- pen toany sailor. It is only once in great while that there is any disorderly conduct on board, and wher it does happen the third class man is pretty sure to be the culprit. Occa- sionally one of these gets into the cells and stays there. it may be, for seven or fourteen days. Twice each day and for an hour each time he is taken out of his place of confinement and exercised on deck under guard, and should he have misbehaved himself very seriously he may be placed on low diet. In_ fact, it quite frequently happens that a man who goes in for seven days will spend the first three and the last three on abbreviated rations. In addition to suffering this reduction of his food supplies cach prisoner is compelled to pick daily two ands of oakum. Ifthe prisoner happens to an exceptionally bad character ho may pos- sibly get » court-martial, but such happening is extremely rare. The captain is empowered to imprison at large, as it is called, and then when a port is reached—a British port—on the captain's sentence the man can be jailed for as much as ninety days. But when his term is out he must come back to the ship again. No mat- ter what he does, unless he commits murder it impossible for him to get away from the service. MARRIED MEN AFTER SHORE DUTY. After eight years served on shipboard men may, if they so desire, volunteer for duty with the coast guard, but they must be very well reom- mended and have to wait for vacancies. They start out with the pay of $60 week and can make a rather nice thing out of their shore job. Married men are the ones who generally take the service, and when their terms expire they, like those who continue to serve on shipboard, are properly and fairly pensioned. They really render very valuable service, for in their bands is the prevention of all smuggling and to their efforts is due the large saving of human life along the stormy coast of the British Islands, INSUFFICIENT PAY. At the end of the twelve-year period a great proportion of the men leave the navy, and they do this because their pay is really insufficient and because there are many lines of profitable endeavor open to them. The merchant service Offers no sivantagos, 80 that doesn't capture any of them. But they do go into all sorts of private employ, and, as a rule, make trust- worthy employes. It is short-sighted policy that almost forces a good man to leave the service at the time when he is realiy most use- ful. The general impression seems to be that the seaman ought to get at least 48 or 50 cents a day without the allowances so that his entire per diem earnings would amount to from 60 to 6Scents. Unless there is some such in- crease the service will continue to lose many of the very best of its men. The London fire brigade is always ready to secure an ex-sailor and they prize the man-of-wars-men very highly. He is offered inducements that very few men of his station would be apt to throw aside, and as a consequenco the London fire brigade is composed largely of those who have served her majesty, the queen, on some of the many magnificent’ ships of "war of which England is so extremely proud. PROMOTION. Promotions for men before the mast are reasonably rapid. A man has to be recom- mended for a petty oficer, but unless he is a good seaman and a thoroughly steady character he will fail in his efforts to secure the recom- rendation. After a man has been a first-class petty officer he gots what is known as progress- ive pay, and that means 6 cents additional per day. And when he becomes chief petty officer he only gets 4 cents per day extra and has to fit himself with an entirely new clothing outfit, for the promotion takes him out of blouses and pats kim into jackets. |The admiralty allows im but $25 with which to purchase this outiit, but that amount is not more than ‘one-fourth of what is really required. As a rule petty officers do not eare for the rating of chief petty officer, because the new clothing is expensive and because there is no increase of pensions, but those who want to be warrant officers have to accept the promotion, for the reason that there isn't any way to be- come @ varrant officer without first becoming a chief petty officer. Thesechiefs are the chief gunnery instructor, chief torpedo instructor, admurai’s coxswain (on tlagships), chief writers, chief carpenter's mate, chief stokers, ship's steward and master-at-arms. cLoTHixa. In the matter of clothing the regulations seem to be a trifle stringent on the seamen. When a boy joins he is allowed 260 for cloth- and 2°¢ cents for biscuit. | At 9 o'clock the entire crew goes to divisions | on the upper deck, and there ofticers—there is | ‘one to each division—inspeet the clothes and | see that the men generally make a good ap-/ pearance. Following this comes the morning praver, attended by all, and if there is much | work to be done afterward both watches turn in and do it, but if the quantity is tut small | then the watch beiow goes down to mend its clothes. On Thursday afternoon of each week every man and boy has to settle down to the clothes mending business. At 11:30 the upper deck is cleared up and half an hour is allowed for dinner. everyboxiy except those who are ab- solutely needed on deck being below for that purpose.

The amount is too small to make it an inducement | for any man to accept it; if it was increased to sar 4or Scents a day the chances are—and I | say‘this after having conversed with a great many of the men—that 95 percent of them would take the cash instead of the g: The daily dinner consists principally of fro-h beef and potatoes and whatever else may have been purehased out of the mess fund. The daily allowance is one pound of beef, one pound and a quazter of bisenit, quarter of a pound of vegetables and a pound and a half of bread when the ships are in ports where fresh bread is procurable.

HE DOES NOT WASTE BIS MONEY. There is a widespread but evidently errone- ous impressionabroad that your jolly Jack Tar is a good deal of a spendthrift, Of course some bluejackets are, but if the information I se- cured from a great many of those who are now serving on board the Blake is anything like correct, and I have every reason for believing that it is, a vast majority of the men save the greater portion of their pay. They are temper- ate men; they have to be, for if they were otherwise they could not remain in the service. ‘They patronize toa very gratifying extent the naval savings bank, which on each ship is looked after by an assistant paymaster. Every- | thing possible is done to encourage the accumulation of such money as the men and their families do not tually need, ar the result is is well worth all the trouble. The government encourages tho saving habit by paying 3°; per cent interest for moncy deposited and it’ also hings easy for the safe transmission of such cash as “Jacky” wants to send home to his r mother.

At the completion of that five years he may try again for an addi- tional five (something not frequently done), and service throughout that period also would result in another inerease of pension. The pen- sions are not so bad as pensions go in other lands, for the old sailors receive from 60 to 64 cents per day. A warrant officer cannot get a pension, though, until he has served until twenty-five years of age, but then he gets $600 a year for the balance of his life. Then there is additional pay for good character badges, of which there aro three, one coming at the end of three years’ service and bringing with it 2 cents additional per day, the second five years later, that also bringing 2 cents per day, and the third after thirteen years of service, with another additional 2 cen No difficulty is nced in keeping up the supply of trained boys nor is any looked for. ‘The navy is Great Britain's most pepular in- stitation. and solong as there aro ships there will be men enough to work them. G. iH COURTS AND LAWYERS. desccobee ately In the Early Days of Georgetown Legal Business Was Light. The mayor's court of Georgetown was the first court established in the District of Colum- bia, writes Mr. Hugh T. Taggart. By the act of incorporation of 1789 the mayor, recorder and aldermen, or any three or more of them, were authorized to hold a court in said town, to be called the mayor's corut, and to appoint proper officers therefor and settle reasonable fees. The mayor's court had the same jurisdiction as to debts that the justices of the pence of any county of the state then had or should there- after have by law. It also had concurrent juris- diction with the county court of Montgomery county in all criminal cases except such as affected life or member, if the crime or offense were committed in the town of any of its pre- cincts by any inhabitant of it or by any person not a citizen of the state, and appeals lay from its judgments to the ‘county court. This court continued in existence from the time of its establishment down to the time when tho town passed under the jurisdiction of the United States asa part of the federal district. That its sessions were not held with a satisfac- tory degree of regularity may be fairly inferred from the fact that in the year 1798 the corpora- tion passed an ordinance establishing regular meetings for it. THE GRANTING OF LIQUOR LICENSES. Prior to the year 1799 the power of granting licenses to ordinary keepers and retailers of spirituous liquors was vested in tho county courts of the different counties of the state, and the manner in which the county court of Montgomery county made such appointments in Georgetown seems to have givén offense, for in the year 1798 the corporation resolved to resent a remonstrance to that court, setting forth the injury and inconvenience arising to the citizens from the indiscriminate way in which tavern licenses had been granted. ‘The complaints were felt at Annapolis, for in that year the power of granting licenses was vested in the mayor's court. The mayor's court after administering jus- tice for twelve years was legislated out of ex- istence by the act of Congress passed Feb- ruary 27, 1801, which provided for the estab- lishment of a tribunal with jurisdiction over the whole district to be called the “Circuit Court of the District of Columbia.” The act continued all cases pending before the cor- poration court of Georgetown to the new court. LEGAL BUSINESS DULL. Although the judicial machincry was set in motion in the colony by acts passed by the as- sembly of 1638-9 creating a court of admiralty, @ county court, a court of chancery, a court practorial and justices of the peace, yet there was long a dearth of legal business and the services of the lawyer were not indemand. A Person writing from the colony about the year 1660 says: “Here, if the lawyer had nothing else to maintain him but his bawling, he might button up his chops and burn his buckram bag or else hang it upon a pin until its antiquity had eaten it up with dirt and dust; then, with aspade like his grandsiro Adam, turn up the face of creation, purchasing his bread by the sweat of his brows. that before was got by the emotionated water works of his jaws.” In the course of time things seem to have cbanged for the better, so far as the profession was concerned at least, for in the year 1772 another person writing from the colony said: ‘A litigous spirit is very apparent in this country. ‘The assizes are held twice in the vear in the city of Annapolis and the number of cases then brought forward is really incredible.” ‘That the lawyers, however, had become troublesome as early as 1715 is evident from an act passed by the colonial as- sembly in that year for rectifying the ill. prac- tices of attorneys in this province. By this act their fees, payable in tobacco, were prescribed, and it was provided that if they should pre sume to ask, receive, take or demand any greater or larger fee they should be incapable of practicing law in any court of the province. TO REGULATE LAWYERS’ FEES. ‘This law being found to be ineffectual another one was passed in 1725 for the same purpose. It recited complaints “of the exorbitant fees taken] by counsellors at law, chamber counsellors, barristers, attorneys and other practitioners and advisers in tho law, to the great dam- uge and grievance of the’ good people of this province and impoverishing of themselves and families.” This act again established a scale of fees, and further provided forms of oaths to be taken by lawyer and client before the insti tion of thesuit,the one that he had not received any greater fee than that allowed by the act, and the other that he had not paid any such fee. In 1717 there was a lawyer in the province named Macnamara who was the prosecutor of the suits of the crown and such an exception- ally troublesome fellow that a special act of the legislature was passed in that year to disbar him from practicing in all other suits than those of the crown. According to the recitals in the act he had once been suspended for his misdeeds, but had been restored again upon the late queen's order. Claiming that the order exempted him from the application of the pow- ers of the courts he treated them in an indecent manner when he pleaded before them, despix- ing their authority and even threatening their persons, A TOUGH CUSTOMER, Ho is described in the act as “a man of threatening, titigous and revengeful temper,” who had at length arrived at ‘‘so intolerable a degree of pride and arrogance as even to threaten the governor;” and it was declared that his insolence had resulted in a declaration by several of the judges that they would not longer continue in their stations if so turbu- lent a person was allowed to practice before them—‘all which actions and many others (some whereof he has been convicted and others been acquitted from by his management of Juries and subtlety in ‘the law) to tedious to enumerate, are of so hanghty and daring a na- ture that the honor of the government cannot be supported nor the magistrates be safe and easy in the execution of justice nor the peace | of the province preserved unless some remedy be provided, not only for the discouragement | of him, the said Thomas Macnamara, but all others of like demeanor.” Whether Georgetown had arrived at that de- | gree of eminence in good works prior to the | year 1772, when the support of a lawyer could be credited to her, cannot be determined, but that she was doing’ her duty in that respect in the year 1773 would seem to be reasonably well established. For among the subscribers to an edition of Blackstone printed in Philadelphia in | that year we find the name of George Earle, a Georgetown lawyer. The book was issued in four volumes, and ‘the subscription price was considerable, so that we may reasonably infer that the professional gentleman was fairly pros- perous, Which—Garlic or Cholera? From the North China Herald. In connection with the employment of garlic as an antidote it will be in the recollection of readers of the home papers that during’ the | outbreak of cholera in Europe last season it was observed by sanitary inspectors, medical men and others that in rows of distinctly ill-drained, unhealthy cottages the occupiers of dwellings |having strings of onions hanging from the ceilings enjoyed comparative immunity from ‘attack, and, again, that in districts where onions and garlic entered freely into consump- | tion as food fatal attacks were uncommon, Beextsenam’s Dye for the whiskers does {ts ‘ork thoroughly, coloring a uniform brown or black, which, when dry, will neither rub, wash off should have been held in thiscity, and satisfac- tion that the immense project received its first impulse and was pushed to a fact in this city. ough others may have attempted to obtain the honor, it isa matter of record, that many Washingtonians will recall, that the world’s fair which was opened at ‘Chicago yesterday is the out-growth of the three Americas and world’s exposition which it was pro- posed to hold at Washington. The author and projector of this enterprise was Mr. Alexander . Anderson, who obtained sufficient backing from the citizens of the District to devote his time to it. In an interview which was printed in the New York Herald of November 18, 1884, Mr. Anderson forecasted this idea. On the 1st’ of January in the follow- ing year he submitted the proposition for the exposition in writing to the _ president of the Baltimore and Ohio railway, and at a public meeting held in this city on the 25th of February, 1886, he pr sented the plan in detail to the ‘citizens of the District. At this meeting the project first took definite shape. Headquarters were opened, officers and committees appointed and active work looking toward congressional’ approval of the project was begun. In the summer of the same year the local board was transformed into # national board of promo- tion. Notices were sent out and re- onses of approval were received from the governors of forty states and ter- Titories, the mayors of fifty-five leading ing cities, 176 presidents and secretaries of | boards of’ trade throughout the country and the officers of thirty state and tern: torial granges. The leading national conven- tions held during 1886 to 1888 inclusive adopted resolutions strongly supporting the movement. On June 16th of the latter year the foreign aflairs committee of the House through its chairman, Rep. Perry Belmont, submitted areport in favor of the project and naming Washington as the place at which it should be eld. Up to this time the idea of holding the exposi- tion at any other city than Washington had not been considered, but when this report was sub- mitted, New ‘York stepped in and at- tempted to gain the honor. It was then that the west took a hand in the matter and entered her protest against New York having the exposition. The west became arrayed against the east, and finally Chtcago won the prize. In the debate which occurred | on the floor of the House and Senate over the report, credit was duly given for the part that the city of Washington had taken in this work. Representative Charles E. Hooker of Missis- fippt sald in the course” of | his remarks “It is but just to say of these non- represented people of the District of Columbia that it | was the people of this District who, before any place was desig- nated for the site of this exposition, established a board of promotion, and for four years have been earnest advocates of holding this great fair at the capital of the nation. —— FALLS CHURCH APPENINGS.

It Has Cured When Everything Else Has Failed. Fewer “Ifs” and “Maybes” Than Ever Before. Trouble Primarily With Blood and Nerves. A True Remedy Better Than All the Trade Medicines. ‘There are today fewer “if” and “maybes” in medicine than ever before. It's a time of great results. Not long ago tt was said of aman sick with cere tain diseases that nothing could be done for him. The | Today there are few diseases that cannot either be cured or controlled. About the last to yield to the patient, accurate study of sclence were diseases of the kidneys. In the case of Bright’s disease there is still that deadly certainty of diagnosis which answers the inquirer bluntly, yes, or no, but the disease itself has lost its fearfulness. Medicine cures and con- trols it today. Perhaps more study has been devoted to this consumption of the kidneys than to any other single complaint. Its characteristics have been most clearly marked out. The disease soon ine volves many other organs of the body; other troubles are induced, such as pneumonia and Theumatism. ‘The trouble is primarily with the blood and nerves. Some of the symptoms of disease of the kidneys are rapid weakening of the system, tenderness over the kidneys, chills, headaches and swelling of feet and Ibs. Phystclans have, in many cases, held to their own ideas of the incurableness of kidney troubles, and have clung stiMy to their old-time text books, but So many of these cases have been afterward cured by Paine’s celery compound that this great remedy 4s looked upon by physicians as having unsurpassed power to cure all diseases of the kidneys. It cures where everything else fails, Paine’s celery com- Pound is as superior to all the ordinary “trade” Femedies as a diamond fs to common glass. It was first prescribed by no less aman than Dr. E. E. Phelps, the most famous of Dartmouth’s professors, and is indorsed by physiclans and the public as no other remedy was ever indorsed. reat Ten-Day Sale Of Fine Clothing!
