In reply to questions propounded by

A TYPICAL ENGLISH COAST GUAIsN.
Cling. Prevent smuggling they could
not, but they tried, and thus kept rea.
sonably busy.
In 1854 an act was passed compelling
all men under the customs to serve in
the navy, also all seafaring men in the
service of departments Of the state to
serve afloat if called out. Up to 1856
the coast guard was under the customs
for preventive service, but on July 20 in
that year an act was passed for the bet
ter defense Of tho coasts of the realm
and the more ready manning of the
navy in case of war or sudden emer-
gency, as we'll al for the protection Of
her majesty's revenue, and twas taken
over by the admiralty.
With the advance Of the free trade
movement the duty on lace and silks
was reduced to a mere nominal sum,
and now the only articles that are worth
smuggling are tobacco and spirits. Ow
ing to the DECLINE Of smuggling there
was corresponding reduction in the
various coast guard statiCns,and so great
are the changes which have from time
to time taken place that it would almost
seem that the very character of the
coast guard service has changed also,
for, instead of its sole object being the
protection Of the revenue, it now has
other and varied duties to perform. The
enormous development Of the shipping
industry necessitates an increased
amount Of vigilance all along England's
shores, so that in case of collision or
other disaster help may soon be at hand.
The coast guard are a fine body 0f
men, well disciplined, of fine physique,
and, generally speaking, in the prime
of life.
Besides the regular patrol duty which
our life savers do the English coast guard
is not allowed to forget that he is still
II part of the navy. Once each year he
must 90 to sea either for two weeks
drill or on Il months cruise. Ho brush
rs up his knowledge of the handling
and firing Of big guns aud regains his
sea legs. On shore he drills regularly
with Cutlass, rife and pistol, aud one
day each week he goes through a signal
drill, for the coast guard men are tho
eyes Of the admiralty, and are trained
to detect an enemy's ship and pass along
the word as we'll as to sight wreck and
send for assistance.
Every district has a gunboat and a
cruising cutter attached. The cutters
are chiefly employed on the southeast
ern coast in preventing the French fish.
ing boats from fishing within the three
mile limit. This keeps the coast guards
in good fighting trim and makes them
eager for sea duty when warclouds low.
Or, as they do just now.

had decided to tear down the houses when
the daring contractor made his proposal,

But it was ticklish business. The first
operation involved the raising of all four
fat houses from tho eight solid stone but

enormous weight had to be transferred TO
a massive platform of IL inch yellow pine

used in this operation, and of course each

"Call ont the coast guard I"
Such an order means that England
expects to do some serious sea fighting
and 1t is only given when war seems
unavoidable.
Every mile of Eng!and's coast is pa.
trolled, night and day, by the guards.
Their little whitewashed stations are
dotted all along the shore from Lands
End east through the channel, north
along the North sea and south along
the Irish sea back to Lands End again.
There are several thousands Of these
coast guards, and they form the back
bone of England's naval reserve. Every
man Jack Of them is as much sailor as
the men who sail England's ships over
the big waters, and each one is bound
to report for sea duty when the call
comes. Back Of the coast guard are the
naval veterans, pensioners and retired
sea dogs, who are ready to step in as
substitute coast guards.
In this purely British institution lies
much Of the reserve strength of Eng.

The English coast guard differs essen.
TALLY from our life saving service. Our
life savers have nothing to do with the
navy. Most of them know nothing at
all about warships, and their organiza.
tion is not thorough one, for the crews
of the various stations are generally dis.
