The Captains Gig,

From McClure's Magazine)
II you pull an oar IN the captains gig,
You must mind how you behave:
You must shift 70 your cleanest white or

And you mustn't want for a shave.
For you're under the old mans eye,
And the ladies watch you, too;
So put on your Sunday morning face
And your cleanest suit OF blue.
oh, the lads that pull In the captains gig
They must mind their p's and as;
They got 70 go light on a juicy guild
And mind that they black their shoes,
They must watch their stroke Ike
racing crew,
And keep their eyes in the boat;
They must do their mile In tho proper
style,
From the ship TO the government nOst
Oh. the lads that pull in the captains
gig,
They hears lot OF talk:
They learns what the officers say 70 tho

That they meet on the yacht-club walk.
They must walt all day I'm the broilin' sun
While the old man goes ashore;
They takes a cargo OF calico out
And then goes back for more.

AT THE POLE.
No Way of determining Position MOI
Direction.
Nautlcal Magazine.)

Nautical Magazine.)
II any one really got to the pole he
would, in common parlance, be utterly
"at sea-" simply because al the pole
there is no possibility of ascertaining
ones whereabouts. A person arriving
there would find an altogether different
world before him. Like blind man, he
would grope about and yainly endeayor
to get back whence he came. This by no
means enviable situation Is calculated TO
destroy the Illusions which he may have
cherished when starting on his polar ex-
petition. His completely changed situa-
ton would be accounted for by the fact
that when stationed at the pole the d.
rection of the north would be found TO
coincide with the line of the zenith-that
is to say. the point exactly above US. The
opposite point-viz., the nadir, would CO.
incide with the direction TO the south.
The longitudinal circles, and hence, also.
eide with the circles OF latitude; an equa-
tor would coincide with the horizon.
Hence, an astronomical determination OF
the locality, according TO latitude and
longitude. IL preciuded.
The same may be said as regards de-
termining ones bearings In any direction.
The compass, too, will fall there, because
its horizontal intensity Is so slight as to
preclude the possibility of its action. The
only. criterion for judging that one has
latitude OF the sun, after having been
corrected to altitude above the true hort
zon. is found 10 coincide with the value
OF the declination OF the sun for the day
in question.
Moreover. in those regions there is
scarcely a day on which dense fogs do
not prevail, and 90 or more degrees co.
OF cold. such as mostly exist there, will
enhance the difficulties OF observation to
such an extent that II can only be a
question OF approximate estimates. Such
conditions are by no means enyiable. and
are scarcely calculated TO induce us TO
long for them with all our hearts.
But these are not the only things which
are likely to make a sotourn at the pole |
never-ending torment. Worse than all the |
rest. one cannot count the passing hours /
there; In other words. there Is no critic /
ron for determining the time OF day.
During a period OF six months the sun /
will neither rise nor set. but during the |
whole OF the time will always remain !
