of the torrent and the thunder of the mountain above belching forth fr9m the central crater fiery bombs and enormous swirls of cinder, sand and smoke, which rose to great heights Yard by yard the lava swept onward, now palatial villa would be surround ed by the torrent, crushed down and disappear in smoke; now a weeping peasant would see his little cottage and vineyard, his all, go under In an in- stant. One poor woman was thus watching the fate of her earthly be- longings from a little elninence, when a smaller crater came roaring forth at her very feet. She turned to flee, fell, rolled to the bottom of the little hill, and the next moment the lava flowed forth like the foam from a glass of beer and swept over the spot where she had been standing an instant before.-

indicative of his supreme contempt for the entire
fleet of ferry-boats and, leaning out of the window
called friendly greeting to the Captain of passing
towboat which painted gorgeously green.
That boats owned by an Irshman Oh, you
guessed that, did you? Well, say! she used to be
called the Eurydice but when the Teller bought her
he had a hard time to pronounce that name; so one
day he changed it, and since she's been the
Saint Patrick. They say this same Teller when he
first started in the towboat business went outside
the Hook day looln for job. Well say! he
found ship there all right tied up to her and started
home. This here's light-ship,' they told him.
'Divil bit | whether you're light heavy!
I'll tow We to hades if you want to go!' he called
back to EN-. And say! he owns whole fleet of
towboats now.
We had not long to wait for German liner.
She came up the river under her steam proudly,
almost arrogantly, and lay-to opposite her pier.
Then we, with four other towboats seized upon her
and from that moment she ceased to be alive. In a
tumult of kissing steam massed upon her bow,
pushing steadily and Persistently against
the sheer black sides forcing her about inch by inch
until she was headed for her berth, and then turn

or two of her own propellers brought her snugly
beside the pier.
To glance casually at tug from the supersructure
OF liner is common enough experience, but to see
a ship from the small, low-lying towboat, to be
pressed close to the iron hull rising vertically above
your head, to look up into the hundreds of faces
that gaze down from the rail of the main deck
that is a point of view wholly and a1luring
The real interest, and it matters not how many
times you see them is in the upon of strange
and alien faces that gaze down upon you from the
forward and after rails of the main deck.
Conscious of my vow, and thinking that here per-
haps was an opportunity, l stole down upon my
friend, the misanthropic mate always busy with the
whiskers of his bow fender. Bravely l went
again at my task of reducing him to tolerant terms
They ought to make pretty good citizens,
said enthusiastically, nodding my head toward the
steerage passengers above us.
HUH he grunted with derision. They'll all
be votin for Tammany Hall in a couple of months!
On our way back to the pier for orders Captain
Hank talked knowingly about the officers of these
huge ships. Did you notice their kid goves?" he
demanded in tone of deep disgust We'll, say
it's shame the way they dress those poor feers up
Just like bottle of cheap champagne, and German
at that. But the saloon thinks it's fine all right
Maybe YOU We noticed that we towboat don't
wear uniforms? No, sir! | don't need any harness
to make my men do their work They know who's

land up on the pierhead
sure!" And a moment later
this prediction was fulfilled.
Well" he went on, pulling
his wheel hard to port as we
swung around the Battery
well, you can't SO much
blame EN-: They're all new
boats, and pretty hard to
handle, | guess; yet at that,
you d think they could make
a ferry-slip. It's like hittin'

He gave a short laugh,

too tough to hang!"
Thus my friend, the mis-
anthropic mate, as he
carefully attached whis-
kers to the new bow fen
der he was making.

to control 1t, and that
accidents of the most APP
palling kind are happily
SO rare is due to the
capability of the tow
boat men, whose skill
and knowledge of the
conditions to be met are
absolute, and whose re
sponsibility cannot be
exaggerated. This is the
serious phase of the life
these men lead; but
rarely do they hint at it
themselves.
And of course the
older men have most of
this work to do. Often

The Misanthropic friend, it is to hint
Mate. my state of mind
rather than express
any interest this tacturn individual might have
in My comings and goings when exploring
the New York water front only one of the Incl
dents of his daily life aboard the steam tug Unit, and
to be endured as part OF his duty. For days
had tried to break through his sulen and at
last, somewhat reluctantly admit, he had given
voice than monosyllabic answer to my
constant questioning So, in my triumph, instead
keeping of a humble silence as | afterward learned
to do, burted out obvious objection
oh, it isn't so bad that, told him, with
laugh at his vehemence The people ashore
don't know anything of what happens down here
the water front We have to get our information
from the newspapers, and they don't have time for
details
He looked at ptyngly, jammed his marlin
spike into the body of the half-hnished fender spat
derisively over the side and started forward You
must read the police mostly, guess, he
grunted over his shoulder
As l climbed to the upper deck my way
to the pilot-house the misanthropic mate eyed me
furtively, and then slowly returned to his task
of putting whiskers that half finished bow fender
l remember making a vow to myself then and there
TO reduce that mate to state of comparative cor
diahty even if it required a constant acquiescence
in his incorrgib1e cynicism.
In the pilot-house Captain Hank Bartlett was
singing his favorite song to the puff puff putting of
the steam exhaust outside.
So hurry hurry hurry!
There's a bow
Who is after any little job O town,
From a coal-barge to liner
And it doesn't matter how
So hurry, hurry, hurry!
Though Your boiler wants to bust
And blessed bearIn' is a-gowin'
Don't hesitate a minute
For to hook her mustl
If you want to get there first and get the town.
There is not much tune to the song-it just puffs
along to its throbbing accompaniment-but it
expresses the very of this towboat life To
be sure, there is not the constant scramble to get
there first that there used to be when all the boats
were "porges' but it's hurry, hurry hurry"
still, from place to another, starting in at FIVE
O'Clock in the morning and finishing long after dark
First it may be B. & o. float loaded with freight
cars to be tOwed from somewhere the East River
to a slip Staten Island; then a steamer to be
locked; then few lighters to be transferred from
pier to another; then message to a schooner
anchored out on the Red Hook Flats; then yacht
for the Erie Basin; then freighter to be started
Ler way to from the general stores in Brook
lyn; and finally, when the crew is hoping to be
laid off for the night, big square-rigger to be
nursed through He'll Gate on her way up the sound
So it goes day in and day out, winter and summer
hurry, hurry, hurry!
It's German liner to be locked said Captain
Hank, anticipating my question. "Thereu be
three or four others waitn off the pier. Now
where earth's he goin?"
This last was in reference to one of the munich
pal ferry fleet whose cratic

don't they soon find out. But
you take some of the officers
on these liners-why,
much bigger than a ~

they need somethin' to make
