Disagreeable People.

Somebody once SAID that in passing
through strange city it always gave him Il
pang to think Of the many delightful people
there whom he would never know but he
might have consoled himself with the fact
that there were also in all probability NUM-
Der Of di>agreeable people there too whose
acquaintance he would be spared. One is
tolerably certain Of meeting plenty Of them
at home OF abroad; like the advertisements
of quack medicines at Ultima Thule. on the
Steppes Of Gartary, Or at the Pyramid Of
Cheops. Perhaps the worst Kind Of disa-
gTeeable person ID She who can be agreeable
when she feels like it. and believe, il j.,

greeable and those whose hatefu,ne,s j.

course even the chronic case has its season

Etiquette on Transatlantic Steamer.
Hartford Courant.

Eighty thousand Americans annually
visit Europe. OF this number 10000 sail
from the port of New York. They spend
upon an average while abroad $1,000 apiece.
The greater number are ladies'. Such is the
statement made by Broadway travelling
commission firm to a journalist. The i'm
portance of these annual pilgrimages. which
are increasing year by year. has developed a
system of ocean etiquette that governs the
conduct of what may be termed the best cir
cles of "maritime society" Nowadays the
captain of crack ocean steamer must not
only be first class sailor but he must also
be man of infinite tact and method, with a
thorough knowledge of what "socety" re-
quires at his hands ...
To sit at the ''right Of the captain" at ia
BILE at once accords to the occupants of that
distinguished honor the highest place in the
social scale on board ship, and the position
is competed for with an amount of anxiety
that Is very amusing. The senior surgeon
and his assistant (when two are carried) act
as deputies, and rank socially next in i'm
portance to the captain himself. How to
accommodate the various claims for this
coveted distinction is a matter Of serious
moment. The personnel of the passenger
list is searched at least forty eight hours be-
fore the vessel sails. Very often the purser
is called into consultation, and the difficulty
is finally settled by placing a card bearing
the passengers name upon his or her plate.
From this decision there is no appeal. 1t
frequently happens, however, that one or
more persons may consider themselves
slighted, and where It is probable that the
imaginary slight will disturb the social har-
mony the captain escapes by taking his
meals in his own room.
In the tirst-class ships as the Bothnia
the Alaska, the Britannia. the Arizona, the
Baltic, and the Spain, which carry from 10
to 200 cabin passenger, apiece, il is becom-
ing the rule to dress for dinncr-the ladies
in semi-evening toilet, the gentlemen in
frock coats. A good story is told BY PurAcr
Neppens of the Cunard line 1T is rule,
sir" said a steward to tail, fair passenger,
''to put on a frock coat al dinner" This
was after the vessel had been two DAYS at
sea- The passenger persisted in wearing
his suit Of light tweed, and the request was
reiterated on the following day, which hap
pened to be stormy one. The vessel
lurched heavily, but the passenger appeared
in frock coat Of exquisite tnencss. The
contents of plate of soup, however. soon
DESTROYED its gloss. and the gentleman re-
tired abruptly i'll confusion He said
nothing, however, until Liverpool wa, reach
