NEWS OF THE WATERFRONT.
HAD FUN WITH
THE "PILOT"
Mate OF British Ship Norma Mas
Not Quite Himself
Yesterday.

There was lot of fun at Sorenson' s
wharf yesterday afternoon An assist
ant harbormaster had brought the
British ship Norma over from the Rail-
way wharf to give her a new berth.
The British sailors were in good work
ing trim, but the two mates of the
vessel We're in a hilarious mood. The
first officer was on deck. The second
officer was somewhere below. It was
the first officer that furnished the show
He called the man from the harbor-
masters office the pilot" and every
once in while shouted to his men:
ITO - with the pilot. I'm running
this crew.
Every time the pilot issued an order
the mate countermanded it.
He stood en- one of the bulwarks
Here, Thomas, ake-fast-t that
hne!"
Thomas obeyed A few sporty
sentences would follow, and then an
order something like the following
could be heard; Take in the bow
line, bo'sun."
The bo'sun said the pilot had given
orders to keep it out.
ITO - with the pilot! Take it in"
The busy pilot was at his wits end
to know how to berth the vessel, and
had hard work to keep the mate from
giving orders which would allow the
Norma's big hull to bump the steamer
Tampico.
Big chains were put out as springs
to hold the vessel in place, and after
these had all been made fast and the
men were taken forward by the bo'sun
to clean deck, the mate stood by one
of these chains issuing orders to an
imaginary crew. Take in the slack, =
he roared full thirty times, and MOTTO
ing that the slack remained slack he
shouted until he was hoarse to put
tackle on that chain and get a line
to the winch" It is needless to say
that this order was not obeyed.
Long after the vessel had been safely
berthed and the pilot had gone ashore,
the mate was wandering about issuing
orders to an imaginary crew and shout
ing: Say, pilot, whose running this.
you or me?"
Does he get that way often,'' asked
a man on the wharf.
mo, he's only been that way since
he came on board after morning
ashore" replied sailor.
The Norma will sail about the first
of the week for Portland, where she is
to load wheat for the United Kingdom.

YOUNG SAILORS
ON THE NORMA
Apprentices Get About Four Cents
a Day for First Years
Work.

One of the rosiest checked young
sters ever seen in this port is on board
the British ship Norma, working long
hours, handling heavy chains, cleaning
decks. and eating the rough food of the
men who spend their lives on the sea.
He does this for the magnificent salary
OF SIS a year, which figures out at
about four cents day. He is an APP
prentice youngster working out four
long years in an effort to become an
"able bodied seaman" He has lnree
companions, their ages ranging from
fourteen to nineteen years, yet all look
like midgets in comparison with other
sailors, as they are much understood.
Nearly all English sailing vessels
carry apprentices, boys who are sent
to sea by their parents to learn the
trade of Harvesting the wind that
sweeps with varied force over all sec
tiens of the briny deep. The boys on
the Norma receive 80 pounds for their
first year, "a for the second, Sc for
the third and eSe for the fourth. Then
they become able bodied seamen, and
are fit to ship as such.
But the youngsters on the Norma
enjoy the life, which, to outsiders, APP
pears awful for them. The sailors
treat them well, they have four hunks
in room by themselves on deck, and
special mess is set apart for them.
And the youngsters are very proud
when the officers of the vessel in any
way compliment them. Two of the
youngsters were employed on the
fo'csle head of the vessel the otnec
day when an officer happened to see
them. He wanted some work done on
the poop.
Come aft, men," he shouted to the
sailor boys.
did you ear that?" asked one of the
other
AYE, aye, 'es a fine man, is. the
first hofficer,'' was the others reply.
And the compliment of come aft,
men" caused those little shavers to do
more work with bricks and oil on the
brass of that ship than had ever been
done upon her for many a day.

.RISKED HIS LIFE
TO SAVE A CAT
Captain Sachs Deserves Several
Medals From the Feline
Tribe.

The cat tribe should gather together
from the four corners of the earth in
special conyocation. Their first act
after assembling should be to elect
Captain Sachs, of the Inter-Island
Steamship Company's service, an hon.
orary member. Their next should be
to grant him medal for feline life
saving, for he already holds a record
for saving cats lives and has saved
one kittens life on two occasions. He
has actually risked his life twice in
rescuing cats.
The captain has charge of the Inter
Island wharves at night time. These
wharves are infested with a special
breed of sailor CATS and each mem
Der of the tribe is a staunch friend IF
the captain. One night recently the
youngest kitten of the cat family fell
overheard about midnight. Sachs
heard her news as she padded back
and forth under the wharf He
promptly peeled off his clothing and
was soon in the water. He dived under
the wharf and spent half hour before
being able to rescue the kitten. He
brought the youngster up to the Office
and with towels gave her a thorough
rubbing -deWn. Then he wrapped her
in soft cloths and allowed her to peace
fully sleep off her uncomfortable ex-
perience in the water. The following
day saw the kitten as lively as ever in
her lifetime.
But this experience failed to make
the kitten cautious. A week later she
was again battling for life under the
wharf. Armed with lantern and
ropes, the captain spent whole hour
in trying to locate her. He found that
she was wedged in between a small
steamer and the wharf. He loosened
the mooring lines, and then, by siren
uous work, pushed the steamer away
from the wharf Then, with the swell
humping the steamer against the
wharf, he dropped down between the
two, risking the danger of being crush
ed. The kitten chung tenaciously to a
pile, and it was only after he had
knocked the kitten from the pile back
into the water that he was able to
pick her UP by selling her tail Miss
Kitten was promptly thrown to the
wharf above. -.
A half hour later a chance caller at
the wharf found the captain again
busily engaged in rubbing down the
kitten. The latter seemed to appreciate
the work, as she purred softly while he
was giving her perfect shampoo.
"You seem attached to those cats, :"
remarked the caller.
well, they get into lot of pilikia,
but they must be rescued, as you can't
tell which of them may be admiral Of
the cats of this fleet some day. One
on the steamer Mikahala is now the
boss, but she is old and I expect that
this critter will be in command soon."
When the caller left the wharf the
captain had Miss Kitten in his lap, and
two other cats were lying at his feet,
while big white one was standing
watch at the Mikahala's gangplank.

New Orleans, La, Oct. T. The
New Orleans Railways Company
will attempt to run it's cars from one
or two barns this morning at Z
o'clock.
The fight is now on.
For the ninth day, all negotiations
looking to an amicable settlement of
the strike failed. The Company
pledged its willingness to accept a
proposition from the men to return
TO work on the basis of 20 cents and
ten hours but they rejected it.
President Commons, of the Union
and other officers, said no one had
been authorized to suggest or lnti-
mate that the employees would ac-
cept q 20 cents and ten hour settle
ment. They declared that the %
cents and eight-hour proposition
made on Sunday was the Unions
ultimatum.
Two personal conferences were
held between the Railways Company
officials and the subcommittee of
employees, and at O'Clock in the
afternoon the Company was hopeful
of q settlement. But it went up in
the air, and the employees denied all
connection with the suggestion.
Mayor Capdevlelle waited until 6
o'clock for some proposition from the
car men. None came, and he issued
the demand upon the Railways Com
pany to run its cars.
The Mayor said he would protect
the lives and property of the Com
pany at all hazards. He will call
upon the citizens if necessary, and
would appeal to the state and ma
tional governments if compelled to,
although he hoped no such occasion
would arise.
Chief of Police Journee command
ed all police to report 6 O'Clock
this morning.
The committee on public safety
met at the st. Charles last night.
State military heads also talked over
the situation.
Bishop Sessums, President Alder
man and other civic leaders met at
the Grunewald and instituted a vol
untary peace inquiry.
The receivership case was trans
ferred from the state to the federal
court by order of Judge King.
A special committee from the
Central Trades and Labor Council is
arranging for large mass meeting
of citizens-probably Wednesday
night.
