We We're warping stern first, and 1 heard
Mr.. Johnson sing out to some one ashore
to make fast the stern line, and to the
men forrard to heave away the capstan
lively; then heard the biggest hullabaloo
L ever heard-a woman screamin and
5000 people ashore yellin, and that second
mate O. mine shouting as loud as he could
to "heave away, my DULLES, and clear this
woman We ran on deck.
Now, this is what had happened: She
was Nova Scotia built ship, with a low
poop and cabin trunk with alleys. The
poop ran was about as high as your mid
die, and there was chock for the stern
line on the taffrail and a pair of small
timber-heads-like our lake schooners have
on the poop rail just at the forrard cor
ner of the house. You see the stern line
would not lead from the chock on the taft
rail to the capStan amidShipS without chat
ing the house, so Mr.. Johnson had thrown
the blight over the timber-heads on the
rail, and that would make the line lead
siantingiy through the alley from the in
board corner aft to the cupboard corner
fOrrard.
Now. there was woman standing in
that alley swappin' billingsgate with some
one ashore, and as Mr. Johnson sang out
to 'heave away he kicked the line close
to her heels. and up it came, taut, to a
level with the rail, and it lifted that WOO
mans clothes with it, and squeezed her
tight. Then as the men hove it in it began
to saw. and saw. and saw, till it's a Won
der that woman wasn't cut in two. Oh,
how she yelled, while that wet six-inch
hawser ground past her and dragged her
tighter into the angle; and all the time.
Mr.. Dunkherst on the forecastle deck was
lookin' every way but aft. pretendin' not
to see, and Mr. Johnson was singin' out to
''heave away, and clear this woman" He
was GRIMM like Cheshire cat when
got on deck and made EN- surge the line.
Then she got clear of it, still yellin' and
ran down the cabin stairs. She was a
shoclsin spectacle. That line had carried
away all 'midship fastenings, and every
thing came down by the run when the
pressure was off. I sent some weemen
down with her buds and they fixed her up.
That was the first trouble. but in two
minutes Mr.. Johnson had to lick the WOO
mans man, who had been forrard with the
mate and had joost got aft. Now, an Eng
lfsh able seaman Is handy with his fists
but Yankee second mate is a bad propo-
| sition, and mighty handy with a beIayin'
pin, so, about the time the woman got
rugged out her man was ready for the hos
pital, and sent 'em both to their state
room to recuperate. Then l thought I'd
better not reprimand Mr.. johnson. AT the
dock head got rid of the owner then we
took tug and towed to sea and were well

stateroom aft, with the run D the forrard
cabin and poop Jim was much Obliged to

he was so happy; and he and the young
woman would pass without Speakin'. But
after a few days l noticed her watchin'
him more than l thought he deserved and
concluded she was coming round. Jim
paid no attention, and that seemed to
worry her. She sneaked aft next time he
took the wheel, and sat down behind him
on the grating, and j moved round where
l could see them and not be seen myself
Fine day" she said; but Jim didn't hear.
How fast be We goin' now, Jim?' she
said next. and Jim looked aloft and said
nothing
JIM she said again; and stin Jim didn't
hear.
Then she got pin out of her dress and
reached softly toward Jim and jabbed him
In the leg. He let horrible yell out o
him that woke the watch below-for they
all turned out. He let go the wheel, and
still yelling, rolled round the deck with his
hand on the sore spot. "Oh, my good Lord

But l wouldn't have a row on deck, to
break up the watch on duty, and told my
two bucko mates to stop the first signs o.
trouble, even though they had to use force.
Now, that was dangerous license to give
such fellows. for they'd hit a woman as
quick a man.
The steward was mild-mannered old
ccdger, who suffered badly and as he was

Table Etiuueffe.

Whether dinner Is ceremonious or in
formal, certain customs remain the same
We will suppose that a lady is taking her
seat at dinner party, says writer. She
Immediately removes her gloves, places
them in her lap, unfolds the napkin, takes
the roll or bread from within it and places
1t at the left hand on the table and lays
the napkin across her lap At each place
there may be on the right two large
knives, a small silver fish knife and table
spoon, and on the left three or four silver
forks, one of them fish fork and one an
oyster fork.
The oysters are served on the shell and
must be eaten whole-not cut in halves.
Soup is taken with tablespoon and from
the side of the spoon; one must never tilt
ones soup plate to secure the last spoon
full and must never be served twice to
soup. For the fish course the silver fish
fork and knife are used. Butter is not
served at dinner. 1t Is not good form to
eat bread between the courses as If one
were hungry.
Some entrees, such as outlets or sweet
breads, may require the knife and fork;
for others, such as patties, timbales or
croquettes, a fork only is used. Meat is
cut as required, small piece at a time
When eating vegetables the knife is laid
on the plate. the blade resting near the
center. The knife must not be placed
across the edge of the plate nor with the
handle resting on the table. The fork Is
then taken up in the right hand, the ham
die of the fork resting easily on the hand
between the first finger and the thumb
Small birds, such as quail and SQUAD, are
served whole. one for each person, and one
cuts the meat from the breast and eats
each piece at the time Of cutting.
