DAYS OF "wEsT MY TRADE.
Yankee Ships OF to Cuba and Rich
CargOes.
From the Providence journal.

From the Providence Journal
During the latter portion of the last and
first half of the present century trade with
the West Indies formed an important
branch of Rhode Island commerce. The
ancient town of Warren, then a thriving
seaport, counted among her various craft a
number of West Indamen" and TO a large
proportion of her maritime population Ha-
vana and Matanzas wefe~far more familiar
than Boston or New York. In those good
old days Cuba and Porto Ric" seemed
near neighbors to New England, and there
was scarcely a Jack Tar on The border of
Narragansett bay who could not jabber
readily in Spanish. Jamaica rum flowed
like water in every tavern and pure sugar
and molasses were as common as glucose
and sorghum aresto-day
Old Warren not only sent Ther vessels TO
the West Indies, but also built them for
the trade. Staunch and strong were those
ancient craft The Warren ship yards
were famous all over the United States for
the excellence of the vessels launched from
their stocks. Those employed in the West
Indian trade were mainly brigs, command
ed generally by Warren captains, with
crews comprising a goodly number of
Warren boys" The owners. too, were
Warren-born, and not infrequentiy the
captain was part owner Of the vessel he
sailed.
The wharves of Warren sixty years ago
presented daily scenes Of the most ustling
activity There was always at some one
Of them the Zephyr, the James, the Busy
or other of their kindred unloading or TAX
ing on a cargo The air was redolent Of
salt spray, tar, onions and moiasses. Carts,
drays and OK teams passed back and forth
continuously. The sail-makerS and coopers
were as busy as bees and so were the
clerks at the stores and counting houses
that lined the water front Superanuu-
ated captains and seamen sat around on
boxes and barrels and critically discussed
the interesting topics Of the moment to
the cheerful accompaniment Of the dap
ping of sails, the clink of hammers and the
"Yo heave. hov' of the sailors.
The West Ipdamen, when they set sail
for the Antilles, were usually laden with
cnrgoes that, so far as variety was con-
cerned might have rivaled the far-falned
spice Of life" Mariners wages were ex-
tremely low. and as a sort of compensa-
ton. the members of ships crew were
generally allowcc the privilege Of carrying
what were termed "ventur's" upon a vov-
age. These "Venturs' comprised articles

LIFE AT VAssAR.

"a great deal of studying is done at Vas

First came the ushers. Messrs. B. c. Jones, of Bessemer; Robert Chaddick, of Greensboro; Fred Shepherd, of Birmingham, and Geo. Stonee, of the University. The groom and hi sbest man, MT. J. E. Morris, marched up the right side isle, while the bride and maid of honor, Miss Sara Shaw, came up the left preceded by the two little flower girls, Misses Louise Lanson and Annie Nor J. s.
