II, a Ferry Boat Pilot House.

l shall stop you a moment and ask you
to step on the upper deck of a New York
ferry boat. You must not expect me TO
ask you into the pilot house, as, unless
you have pilots licence, the law torblds
il. and If we should have a collision the
court may think that you ratified the
pilot, and mulct our boat in damages
Now look around and see the every day
life of the lower Hudson. There to the
southwark you will see an ocean tramp
threading his way along. Astern are a
steam lighter and a tug with a car float
in tow, while couple more tugs are
hunting around for jobs, like beagles
searching for trail The giant Campania
is backing out of her berth, her monster
stacks witnessing the industry of her stok-
ers, who are now beginning to shovel coal
to again lower the east-bound record. a
sound steamer is making her pier further
down, while one of the steamers bound
for Coney Island is rushing down stream
and an excursion tow is heading for Glen
Island. In between them all, steadily
aud surely, dozen ferry boats are car
rying their human freight to do the daily
work of the great metropolis. All this
is crowded into a square mile of water,
which itself is moving to or from the sea
at two and half miles an hour.
Now, think of the problem set to the
ferryman. He must carry, in safety,
across this crowded harbor, with its rapid
and changing currents, a large portion of
the busiest population of one of the
worlds great centers Of business. 1t is
estimated that the yearly passenger trips
between New jersey and New York num-
Der 70, 100000; that the total for all New
York ferries will exceed 170,000,0O0 ;
that the number of boats trips equals
100000, and the number of teams car
ried. 100000. All this immense traffic
is carried on with remarkable safety
The lambert accident to Staten Island
ferry boat some twenty years ago, and a
single collision afford the only cases of
death from accident on record among
North river ferry passengers. There
have been other cases of death, but they
are such as are not directly connected
with the risks OF the business, such as
falling down companionways, being run
over by teams, etc.

Sandy Hook.

The Hook, now FIVE miles long, used
to be much smaller, and was joined TO the
Highlands. The Shrewsbury River,
which now cuts the two apart, then
reached the ocean by an inlet in the mar
row beach. It is wrinkled and beard
ed old reef of sand dunes and forest, and
naturalists say it is one of the very few
places in the Eastern States where prim-
eval conditions remain, and where are
found flowers and plants which once we're
common, but now are almost extinct
There is a great stone lighthouse on San
DIV Hook which was built in 1854 by the
leading merchants of New York. It's
light was destroyed at the patriots bid
ding in 1776, that it might not serve to
guide British men-of.war to New York,
but it found itself marking a Tory en-
encampment soon afterward, for the ''ref-
ugees" built fortified quarters near by,
and thence made their murderous and
thieving raids upon the patriots of old
Monmouth. Thither Sir Henry Clinton
retreated from the battle of Monmouth,
crossing the Shrewsbury on an imprOvis-
ed bridge, and FASTENED to the British
ships anchored in the ample bay, which
Hendrix Hudson is supposed to have
