Some persons must always be late.
While we were backing out up drove in
hot haste gentleman passenger, pass
age paid, luggage aboard, no doubt, and
the ship not six feet away, but her deck
stood twenty feet above him. He tried
to get aboard little steamer, but was
shown the impossiblity of reaching the
deck from the little boat. He stopped.
leaned on his umbrella and looked sad.
The door was shut for him for that voy.
age. Will he learn the lesson?
After the bell rang for "full speed" all
were called below to show their tickets.
All were asked if they were Englishmen
or Americans. 1t was amusing to hear
the replies. care you an Americana"
"No, was born in Denmark" How
long have you lived in America ?" Given
ty.four years" "Are you naturalized ?"
ooh, yes, Ivote." Then you are an
American, are you not ?" "Oh yes, am
now" One lady with very definite
foreign brogue did not know what to
call herself. The officer asked, us your
husband naturalized ?" HE votes in
America" was the reply, and she was
recorded American" So persons of
every nationality of Europe were good
Americans. Many were going back after
many years to see the old home and the
old friends. One Michigan farmer was
going after As years. Then business men
were going to France, South America,
South Africa, England, &c.
Our ship is 554 feet in length, 60 feet in
breadth, 20 feet high above water and
about "a under water. She can carry
$50 irst-cass passengers, 204 second
class and 600 or 700 third class. On
her last return passage she was quite
full. Her tonnage is 11,600 tons, her
enormous engines are 20, 900 horse power
and they burn an average of 325 tons of
coal daily. The crew to work the ship,
including all from the captain down to
the men who handle the COAL numbers
37S persons, so that when full there are
about 1850 persons aboard.
The fnishings, furnishings and decora-
lions of the frst.class apartments are
indeed a work of art. The great saloon,
where $50 persons can sit for their meals
is magnificent, and the second.class
arrangements are in every respect better
than tirst-class were few years ago.
The arrangements for ventilation are
perfect and the old ship smell" that we
used to complain of is not found. Food
is as good as can be found at first-cass
hotels and officers and attendants are
universally kind and and polite, even to
the second-class passengers.
The question arises at once, can these
ships pay expenses with 325 tons ofcoal,
37S men and therexpenses ? Suppose
her to be full and we have
$50 passengers, first cabin, 500, $32 400
| 2O4 second " 49, S,66S
600 " third " 27, 1920
Making a total of $57,16s
for passengers for one trip. Beside this

Nell is dog. She has special delight

as often AS she would like. That is not
because she is left behind, but from the in
ability Of the members OF the family to
