scientific american on an ocean steamer how a great tiansa'.lantic veasel u run duties of officeks and crew — how all goes like clockwork — en ormous quantity op fuel used before detailing the internal econ ' omv of our large ocean vessels let me institute ja comparison between the pioneer vessels of one of our lines and later additions to the atlantic fleet t which will it once disclose the remark i able progress of steam navigation upon the atlantic the brittannia built in 1839 took 600 tons of coal leaving liverpool on her outward voyage she ; burned forty-four tons per day while i her steam pressure was nine pounds ■and her speed a little over eigkt knots per hour gradually and steadily the { ocean steamers increased in all those ; particulars until the ctrlmiiiation was reached in a vessel built in 1885 she has averaged a speed of eighteen knots in nine consecutive voyages between queenstown and new york which is equal to twenty-one statute miles per hour or something greater than the average speed of the ordinary train service on any railway in the world her engines indicate 14,000 horse power and are supplied with steam 1 from nine double ended boilers each | with eight furnaces or a total of seven ! ty-two furnaces the total consump i tion of coal is 300 tons p.>r day or twelve tons per hour or 406 pound sper minute and if the whole of the fires were raked together and formed into one large fire there would be forty two tons of coal or a mass of twenty feet long twenty feet broad and rather ; more than four feet high fiercely burning beside the coal 130 gallons of oil are used daily for journals bear ings etc in the engine-room are the dynamos and driving engines used for lighting the ship which are looked alter by the engine room staff her j crew is made up as follows the cap ' tain six officers surgeon and purser forty seamen carpenter and joiner boatswain and mate two masters at arms twelve engineers 112 firemen and trimmers seventy-two stewards ! six stewardesses twenty-four cooks liakers and assistants in all two hun dred and eighty-seven hands before the commencement of a voyage the crew have to sign articles at this time the officers and sailors are examined by the ship's surgeon for color blindness and every officer join 1 ing the service is examined by an ex pert for long and s!:ort sight the ships ai*e always sent from the loading berth in dock to the company's mooring and at least twenty-four hours before the time appointed for sailing each member of the crew is given a metal badge with a number stamped unon it showing the boat which has a corresponding number he belongs to after the men have re ceived their badges they are mustered their names are called and then they are put through the various drills ap pointed by the directors to be carried out these consist of boat drill fire drill pump drill bulk-head door drill and sending squads of men belonging to one or more boats from one part to any other part of the ship when the order is given out all boats the men sailors firemen and stewards go to their respective boats i e those with badges numbered 1 to no 1 boat and so mi and at once cast off the lash ings grips and covers swing the boat out square the das its and stand by the order lower away all this time the boat keepers ( alwavs sailors are in the boat and never leave her until she is again swung in board and secured when the order lower away is given the rope ladder with which each boat is supplied is passed to the men on deck and one end secured to the ships rail the other end going down with the boat as soon as the boat touches the water the order man all boats is given the boat's crew consisting of four sailors two already in the boat two firemen two stewards and the officer or quartermaster in charge then get into the boat and she is sent to pull round a vessel or buoy at some distance from the ship upon their re turn the oars an laid in and the boats sent away under sail when they come back from their sailing cruise they are hoisted in pur into their respective chocks and secured for the voyage it is very rare for a boat to exceed three minutes prom the time the order out aii boats is given till she is well clear of the ships side the tire drill the pump drill and bulk-head door drill are each in turn attended to and an excuse is never allowed for any member of the crew being absent while the drill is going on the storerooms staterooms a loons sounding machines lead lines rockets and all life saving appliances are thoroughly examined and if found perfect the ship is consid ered in good order for the voyage at a fixed hour on each day during the voyage tli bulkhead doors are closed and opened to keep them in good work ing order all minor regulations of the company receive the same strict attention the officers and sailors are divided into two watches and keep watch and watch from time of departure from one port till the time of arrival at the other these watches are first watch from ' s p in till midnight middle watch from midnight till 4 a in morning j watch from 4 till 8 a m forenoon watch from 8 a in till noon after noon watch from noon tiil 4 p in , then comes the dog wach's the first from 4 till 0 p m the second from 5 1 till 8 p in by this arrangement seven instead of h'x watches are made the intention being to change the turn ! of the night watch every twenty-four 1 hours the chief officer third and \ fifth officers and half the sailors are in ' one watch the port watch the sec ond fourth and sixth officers and half the sailors make tip the starboard watch j when the chief officer is on deck he is j stationed on the bridge where the tele graphs to the engine room wheel house and other parts of the vessel are fixed the third officer h on the lookout bridge forward and the fifth officer is at the wheel attending to the steering of the ship two of the sailors stationed as far forward as possible as lookout men one sailor is stationed at the crank hatch to pass an order to the engine-room should anything go wrong i with the telegraph to the engine-room and a quartermaster is stationed in the ■after wheelhouse to attend to the steering engine and also to look after i the whole chains in thick weather the \ lookouts are doubled and in heavy i weather additional men are stationed in | the after wheelhouse to put the breaks on the circle on the rudder head should anything go wrong with the wheel chains steering engine etc in which case the hand steering gear could be attached in less than a minute the remaining part of the watch under the boatswain attend to making or short ening sail washing decks etc when j the starboard watch comes on deck the i second officer relieves the chief officer the fourth and third officer and the sixth and fifth officer the look-out etc being relieved by members of the watch coming on duty every care and at tention is paid by the officers and look outs or it would be impossible to navi gate ocean steamers as safely as it is i done this routine is carried on from i the beginning until the end of the pas sage through sunshine and darkness storm and tempest the change made is removing the look-out from the fore end of the ship where they might have a chance of being washed away to the look-out bridge or even to the main bridge but this latter is only done in very bad weather the engineers with the exception of the chief engineer who does not keep a watch ) and firemen and trimmers are divided into three watches each of four hours duration this gives eight hours on duty and sixteen hours off duty dur ing the day if fine weather the en gineers and men have the greater part of the sixteen hours oil duty to them selves but in thick and foggy weather the engineers and some of the best men who have been on watch for four hours have to stand by the starting gear and safety valve gear for another four hours supposing the thick weather to continue for that time a moment's thought will show that in such event the watch on duty in the engine room and stockhole must remain in their stations and attend to whatever is re quisite in the ordinary work of running the engines and as it is just a neces sary that some one be stationed at the starting and safety valve gear to stop and reverse the engines should any order come from the bridge the engi neers and some of the men who have kept the previous watch are told oil to this duty — huston globe floating a mine how a california sharper paid the guaranteed dividends os it yes

the handsomest man of the day edwin booth being in the city at the time naturally attended and went behind the scenes to congratulate his brother on his bumper of an audience as edwin stood conversing in the wings a then pojmlar character actor who had been giving imitations of noted actors as his share of the programme came off the stage and began preparing to respond to a tremendous encore what next asked booth tk i am going to give them you in the soliloquy " said the specialist nerv ously but with the original looking on i know i shall make a mess of it i say ned said john wilkes i have an

only send but receive equally well with either hand his skillful manipulation of the key with both hands being only excelled by the beautiful copy he makes many other operators are gifted to a greater or lesser degree with the ability of sending with either hand surgeons seek to cultivate ambidexterity as it assists them where quick decisive action is needed there are carpenters black smiths

normal pulse is said a phy sician to a st louis globe reporter they know that the avervge pulse is about seventy and imagine that they are well or otherwise as their pulse ap proaches or departs from this standard it is true that an average of all pulses would give a result of about seventy beats but in no other physical pecu liarity is there such a wide individual variation i had two students in my office at the same time both very strong and remarkably healthy young men the normal pulse of one was for tv-seven and the other ninety-three this difference is unusual few pulses falling below sixty or rising above eighty in a healthy subject but an unusually slow or rapid pulse is no in dication whatever of disease as is popu larly supposed to ik the case most people overestimate their pulse as they often count its beats when talking about the matter and it is a fact well known to physicians that the excite ment of conversation will quicken the pulse from five to twenty beats the
