WHEN STEAMERS SAIL.
Way Ocean Steamships Usually Leave on
Wednesdays aud Saturdays.

Way Ocean Steamships Usually Leave on
Wednesdays aud Saturdays.
correspondent writing to the New
York Tribune asks the following ,lues-
ton:
Can You tell rae why 1t is that with
ut least ten steamers per week leaving
this port for Europe the only days, SO
far as have been able to learn, when
mail is taken are on Wednesdays and
Saturdays. In other words. why is it
that all the lines send their vessels on
these days, SO that there are sometimes
five or six steamers leave the same day.
und no more till the following Wcdnes-
day or Saturday? 1t would certainly
be great convenience, and it seems
very strange that it was not so
arranged, to have steamers for Europe
leave every day in the week. or at least
on Mondays and Thursdays as well as
on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
II hope you can give me some expla-
nation of the present strange arrange
nent of sailings."
The explanation is briefly Us follows:
1t is the transportation of cargocs
which has to be most considered in the
arrangement of n steamship schedule.
Experience has proved that Wednes-
days and Saturdays are the most ad-
vantageous days for sailings, day in
the middle of the week and the last
day. All large lines now run on four
weeks schedule. A ship leaving New
York on Monday would not be able
to receive and store cargo tho
day before sailing. Tuesday would
give her only one day before sailing for
the reception OF cargo In short, tho
object is to get the day of sailing on
both ends of the line as far away from
the previous Sunday as possible, and
Wednesdays and Saturdays have been
found the best days for sailings.
In summer, when the rush of trans
atlantic trade is at it's height, it has
been found necessary to have ships
sailing on other days in order to accom-
modate the increased traffic. Thus in
the last week steamers carrying mails
to England left this port on Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday,
only two week days. Monday and Fri
day, being without mail steamer for

Way Manila Is Behind.

Manila is one of the most important
PORTS in the Philippine islands, bu.
strange to say. Is one day behind all
other places of Its size in the world.
says the St Louis Republic. This Gu
rious fact is accounted for in this way:
Although She Philippine islands lie near
the Asiatie coast, they were discovered
by Spaniarsls who sailed from America.
When they crossed the magic line
where Sunday suddenly changes into
Monday. these fiery dons of proud Cas-
lillian ancestors did not revise their
calendar. When told OF this years
later. when informed thattheir mode OF
reckoning time was not up to modern
notions, they only said that that was so
much the worse for modern notions.
Anyhow, the fact remains that these
Philippine islanders keep plodding along
one day behind all the rest of the
world. which reckons time by the new
style.

CHARACTER in EYES.
Pcoullaritics of tho Optics of Different
Nations.


Nations.
Eyes have always been regarded rs a
sure tribal characteristic, says the St.
Louis Republic. Tacitus, for example,
describes the Germans as fierce, with
blue eyes and red hair" The Colts are
mentioned as being swarthy skinned
and blacli-eycd; the Gauls IRE red
hard and light-cycd, while the Nubians,
the Turks, the Egyptians and the Ital-
ians have always been spoken of as
1.-THE darll-cyed races"
These peculiaritics have not changed.
Even to-day the people of the temper
ate zone have, generally, light-colorcd
eyes. while those of the torrid and
frigid zones are usually dark, or even
black. Of the races in particular, tho
only one that can be said to be eight
eyed" is the Caucasian. and even in
this race the eyes are by no means uni
form in point of color.
The whole period of human history
goes to prove that the light-haircd,
blue-"yed races are capable of the high
est degree of civilization, but it does
not by any means follow that the high
est degree of civilization is confined to
people of blonde complexion. There
was time when n blue-eycd person
was rarely seen, and to-day seven
eighths of the worlds inhabitants have
dark eyes.
Lavater. when discussing tho eye as
feature in national physiognomy gave
the following as She result of his OBJ
servatiOns:
1.-The Italians have small eyes, the
Germans, light-colored eyes. surround
cd by many wrinkles; the English,
strong. open. steadfast eyes; and the
Swiss, eyes that are very dull-loolSinp. ,,
