Cuban Surveillancc Over Cirls.

Probably no people are so rigorous in
the care and surveillance of girls as the
Spanish. The idea extends to women in
many wise respects. In school, at play.
in the social home gatherings the boy
and the girl are rigidly kept apart. or, if
permitted each others society, it is under
the strictest espionage. A little girl can
not step outside her homo without pro-
tector. A maiden or young lady is never
seen upon the street alone. Any woman
thus seen is instantly known as doubt
full person or worse. If my nina goes to
school father, brother or mother ac-
companies. The airing is nearly always
sponsible member of the family
No young, unmarried woman may visit
friend, attend the theatre or be seen at
reception or ball unless her parents
are with her. If she have a lover he must
come to the house and pay his respects to
her like n gentleman. His attentions are
not secret, surreptitious, dangerous. His
choice is known to his friends, to hers.
1t must be clean business all around.
Her proper privileges and his under this
regime, am inclined to think, are greater.
not less. She goes as much, but the whole
family, something as with the sensible
German people, 60 along also. If the lover
desire an engagement to the ball or opera
with his senorita he must first propose at
headquarters. Then her pleasure is sought.
If she accord there are no misunderstood
ings in that family If it be ride on the
Gale Ancha del Norte or the Calzade de
la Reina, they are all again there. If ii
be promenade on the Prado the whole
family promenades, frequently both fam.
lies. The lover himself, in short. in all
these undertakings while treated with
real dignity is much less an affair to be
considered than other things. Edgar l..
Wakeman.

AT SEA.


Finding the way at sea depends on two
methods, each of which is theoretically
complete in itself-dead reckoning and
astronomical observation. AS obserya-
ton may be prevented by thick weather,
the second method may fail throughout a
voyage or during the cftical parts OF 1t
when land is approached. Thus dead
reckoning, ON which in many cases the
the most scientific captains may have to
trust, must be considered first.
Dead reckoning why called decd" |
do not know nor greatly care) depends on
the determination hour by hour of the di-
rection and velocity of the ships motion,
and the determination thence of her posi-
tion after each days various movements.
If we know a ships position at a given
time, say at noon on July l, and she sails
or steams at a known rate in determined
direction for certain time, an hour, say,
we can calculate her position at the end
of that hour, subject to the action of cur
rents. Since the rate and direction of
currents are mostly known we can take
this particular cause of motion into ac-
count. Thus we can mark in on our chart
the position of the ship at the end of the
hour. So at the end of the next interval
of time during which her course remains
unchanged and so forth-till finally we
determine her position at noon on July 2.
This is not necessarily or probably TWEEN
ty-four hours from noon, July l. as in the
new position now attained there is differ
ent local time, earlier if the ship is west
of her former position, later if she is east
of it. Going on in this way day after
day, the ships course can be charted in,
and her position is known from day to
day--or in other words, those who have
her in charge thus find their way from
port to port. theoretically this is all
right practically there are difficulties.
The circumstances which render dead
reckoning" an unsatisfactory method of
navigation are unfortunately numerous.
