Certain families could never get sea
employment under their own surnames,
not even such members as were born with
cauls, for they were tabooed, barred and

under very stringent conditions. Scar
borough wives kept a black cat in the
house TO assure their husbands lives at
sea; but on voyages every black cat car

unusually frolicsome a storm was sure
to follow. Years ago, on board the
flagship Franklin, up the Mediter-
IA can, we had yarn that illustrated a
survival of this antipathy to certain
forms of animal life. Two old quarter
masters were heard during the morning
watch exchanging in the cockpit dismal
experiences or their dreams the night
before. One was particularly narrowing,

MR.. PU1LMAN's DISPOSITION.
The Criticisms of a Man Who X nows
the Great Car-Builder Intimately.

From the New York Sun.
A man who has crossed the ocean twice
with Mr.. Pullman, and who has travelled
extensively with him on the continent, in
speaking of the car-builder yesterday
said:
sit is difficulty to discover any substan-
tial foundation in Pullman's manner or
speech for the stories which credit him
with an overbearing disposition and the
desire to boss everything that he has any
interest IN. He is certainly well known
to the newspaper writer's, TO the clerks Of
hotels and to the travelling public as ami
able and accessible | have been with
him for weeks al a time, and in travelieg
one gets to know a mans disposition
pretty well. Pullman is as unpretentious
and good-natured a man as / have ever
run across. He is democratic in his
tastes, always eats at public tables, and
have frequently seen him give up his
turn in a barber shop to obliRe some man
who was in hurry.
He hangs on the strap in a cable car,
eats at standing lunch counter when he
feels inclined that way, talks with every
body, and is utterly without the char
acteristics of excluslveness and o1ishness
with which he has been credited. If you
will go down to Wall street and question
the shrewder bankers there, you will
learn that Mr.. Pullman's wealth is very
much exaggerated by common report.
He is by no means the millionaire that
the public and the strikers take him 10
be.
Men who are the figureheads Of such
an extraordinary upheaVal as that in the
west are apt to be distorted in the public
mind. but in Mr.. Pullman's case the dis
tortion is unusually grotesque."

There is nothing particularly enticing
in the sound of mud baths, " and those
who have tried them at Eomb berg and
other places find them not agreeable as

the process is simply that of pouring mud

to which the fashionably sick are turn

that they are quite different. The mud,

is applied locally TO those parts of
the body which are affected. The
patient lies on a straw bed, on which IS
placed a sheet. The attendant, having
ascerGained the suffering parts, daubs
them TO the thickness of seveal inches
with the mud. The invalid, covered with
a hot sheet or blankets, lies for half an
hour, perspiring freely, then gets into a
hot sulphur bath, is thoroughly cleansed,
rubbed dry, and returns to bed artiticially
warmed, where the perSpiration conJin-
ues for an hour or so longer. This treat
ment is req Gated almost every morning
for about twenty days, and is of great
value in all manifestations of rheuma-
tism The mud is dug out of a mountain
a few miles from the spa and brought to
the establishment and allowed to soak for
several years in tanks of boiling sulphur
water until required for use.

per cent. to less than Is per cent. in 1912,
but the reduction was gradual and spread
over ten years. The general reduction
under the horizontal Walker tarif was
less than 5 per cent on all imports, and
the further reduction in 1857, which pre-
coded the panic of that year, was but
per cent. But the Wilson bill would take
off in a single year fully 3S per cent. OF
the duties now paid, and while adding i'm
portant articles to the free list, would re-
duce the duties on large classes of manu-
features and farm products from one-hali
to 60 per cent.
The intense psrtisanship which has
forced this bill through the House, in
spite of the great hostility shown to it by
the people, will not be surprise to read
ers of the Tribune. They have been ad
vised from the first that there was very
little hope of a more reasonable decision
by the Democrats of the House. 1t If
well for them to face the fact also that in
the Senate the same narrow Southern
preiudices, and the same strong leaning
toward the theories OF Populists, will sway
majority of the Democrats, will contro
the Democratic caucus, and thus will die
tate the votes of members who profess tC
be determined never to support meas
ure so unjust to their constituents. Il
would not be strange if the bill should bt
passed without any really essential modi
6cation by the Democrats of the Senate
in obedience to the same Southern dicts
ton which has more than once enacted
tariffs destructive to Northern industries
