ETY. Of bis men, once he can get them
aboard his ship. He can easily sober
them up there if they are drunk when
taken on, for the voyage is one of many
days, weeks or months unless the vessel
be a coaster. But here the time between
ports is short, and men who are inclined
to drink can get their liquor at every
port. L do not mean to say that our lake
sailors are total abstainers. Heaven
knows they drink enough, but they must
be III condition to work hard and con
tinually, or they can t get work, and for
this reason they do not drink themselves
blind the moment they get ashore. L
should add that the lake sailors have to
work at the loading and unloading,
which is not true of the salt water tar.
All things considered, I think the fresh
water salt Is much the better man of the
two.
A "Reminiscences or Two.
'sIn 1854 nearly everything on the
lakes was propelled by sails. In 1858
there was a squirt at steam boat building,
but the shallowness of the ports. few Of
which had vet been dredged, made
steamboating improbable, and sails soon
got back their supremacy By the time
the war broke out steam had forged to
the front again, but 1t was in the form
of tug towing principally As late as
1870, however, large sailing vessels
We're profitable. After them came steam
barges and consorts. then big steamers.
Today 3, 600 ton vessels can be loaded
and unloaded with greater dispatch than
vessels of 500 TONS formerly and oper-
ated almost as cheaply.
The days of wooden construction
have gone by on the lakes, as on the
ocean, and SO have the days Of simple
engines. Compound machines came IN
here almost as early as they did there,
and triple expansion is now the almost
universal practice. Quadruple engines,
however, have not yet been built to any
extent for lake vessels In the matter of
speed we are behind the fastest ocean
passenger boats. but we have steamers
that can make II to IS miles-nOt knots
An hour all right. We have a good
deal of faith IN the whaleback boats,
and the big vessel of that type shat was
used for Worlds fair visitors in 1898,
now plying between here and Milwau-
kee IN the passenger service, makes Il
miles an hour On nearly every trip

most vessel owners were willing to tie
up their boats very shortly after Nov

orators In Transmitting Dispatches
The funny mistakes Of telegraphers
are as numerous as those charged up to
proofreaders- A gentleman who has been
an extensive traveller, and consequently
not supposed to overlook any details,
saw his wife Off ON train for the slope
the other day. 1t was supposed that ev-
erything had been arranged The good
by and its accompaniment had been
passed, and the gentleman returned 10
his home That night his wife suddenly
remembered that she had left valuable
adjunct to her happiness and wrote
message to her husband which he re
ceived the following morning at his Of
fee. Ii read:
Forgot Think conductor has tele-
graphed for H. -
He read it again, and it read as at
first Forgot what" he murmured-
And he read it again and kept reading
it until the words ran together and his
temples throbbed He sent a message to
his house asking the servants if Mrs
- had left anything. They made no
discoveries, Of course. Then he sent
message to the operator at the Office
from which his wife's message was sent
asking him TO repeat it. He waited for
an answer. He lost his luncheon and his
dinner waiting. he remained at his Of
fee until late at night. and as he was
ibout to leave in despair he received an
answer to his. 1t read: Forgot trunk

Sure enough, the word trunk" had
been made to read think" But wasn't
it strange that man who had travelled
all over the world should come to his
own home to forget to check his wife's
runks He laughed to himself after it
was all over. But it had cost him lots
of worry.
Equally funny is this one:
A lady in this city had received let
ter from her old home in Connecticut
which caused her a good deal Of trouble
Her answer to it was by wire. When
it was delivered in the Connecticut
home, it read;

What an exasperating query at such a
