IN THE STEERAGE,
An Evcntful Voyage Across the Atlantic In
Great Ocean Liner.
TSppcial COrrpSDOndCOc0


LIVERPOOL. March lS,-Crossing the
Atlantic in the dead of winter as n steer
age passenger is no joke. l did 1t and
nm here in London recovering. Mind you,
don t say that we stceragcites were treat
cd badly. On tho contrary, We were
treated very well, but no treatment, how
ever soothing, can countoract the effect
produced upon ono by the rolling and toss
ing in frightful, heavy storms and the
breathing of foul air which must nUCCSSa-
rily collect in the stCcrago because of the
impOssihility Of opening up hatchways and
portfolios during bad weather. l got
aboard in the latter part of February and
found much to my surprise, that WAS to
havcR great many roommatCs, so to speak.
There wero nearly 200 of us. Among us
were lot OF English sailors, the crews of
three sailing ships, who had just been paid
off IN New York. To these hardy follows
tho taking Of storage passage was
luxury-a sort of Pullman sea journey,
with DelmoniCan attachment twas
sight to see them dOvOuring tho soft tack
and fresh meat. l used to watch and
wonder, for l was hardly able to touch
anything because of the cloSonCSs of tho
air. l had many talks with them. They
seemed to take to me, and they spun for
my brrcfit unswallowable yarns about all
tho waters of tho world. They had the
most intimate acquaintance with long dis
tanCeS Of any class of travellers have over
met From tho easy way in which they
spoke OF being now in London or Liver
pool, now in Calcutta, or now in New
York or San Francisco, listener unac-
Quaintcd with the names of these places
would imagine that 1t was possible to dine
in ono of them and sup in the other on the
same day.
One Of them especially was n most in
tCrcsting character. His name was MylcS
Hand, and he hailed from Liverpool. He
had followed the son for 20 years and know
of hardly anything savo ports, tho ways of
sails, winds and waters, grnSshopS and
how to sing and dance. He was the ideal
English sailor the typo that Marryat i'm
mortalized. In person he was litho and
wiry OF franc, good looking of face and
had blue, we'll oponcd eyes. Tho eyes Of
| sailors are always we'll opened. The look
| ing out and tho continual watching causes
| this.
When wc were four days ont, 1 got up
n concert and put Mylcs' name first on
tho programme. Tho writing of this pro
| grAmmo was IL great bother to mo because
Of tho rolling Of the ship. When it was
| finished. MylCs got some mustard in lieu
of mucilaGo from tho steward and plaster
ed it up, Then he stood off and looked ut
his own namo a,lmirinEly. l had put him
down for n baritone solo.
