 mnmf- SWIFT OCEAN STEAMSHIPS. From Twcntj-five day Trips. Trips to Six -Day Keeords of the Best Time Hade on the At- lanticâ€" Efforts to StlU Farther Increase the Speed of Steamersâ€" Jfew Vessels. When the little steamship Savannah steered boldly out to the Atlantic in May, 1819, her speed was not so much thought of as the ([i-esLion whetner she would ever get over at all. She made the passage from Savannah to Liverpool in twenty-two days, and returned iu twenty-five days in Novem- ber or the same year. This round voyage solved the experiment of steam ocean navi- gation, and from this time until to-day there have been regular eyelet, or periods, in the increase of the speed of steamers, as â- well as iu the particulars of size, comfort and luxury. It was not, however, until early in the fifties that jart.cular attention was given to the increase of speed. Travellers who had been accustomed to the time of our fast American sailing packets viewed a fiiteen to eighteen days trip by steamer 'ts an excellent one. liut this was changed when the hot rivalry between the Collins and Canard steainship lines began, and the Collins line went to cutting down time at a rate which attracted world-wide attention. Thirteen and then twelve day passages be- gan to be common. The American line put on the superb steamship Adriatic as the last of a fleet of flyers, and the Cunarders fol- lowed suit with the Persia and others, and between them the time was reduced to INSIDE OF ELEVEN' DAYS for regular passages. These were all side- wheeled steamers, and, burning an enormous amount of coal, were unable to carry much freight, so special attention was given to the care of cabin passengers, emigrants still sticking to the sailing vessel?. The loss of the Arctic and Pacific.and other misfortunes, in a few years drove the popular Collins line out of existence, but not before the Adriatic had shaded a ten-day passage considerably. English steamships from that time out had all their own way until other nations began going to the Clyde to build ships with â-  hich to start lines of their own. By 1861 the old padale-wheel steamers had generally given place to screw propellers, the fleet of which has since then gradually enlarged to its pre- sent propor;ions. All this time Euglish shipbuilders have not been idle, but very progretisive and eager to seize on any improvement that would in- crease the speed of steamers. American in- ventors have not been idle either, and, in fact, the most important improvements and iuventiOQS in iron steamers have been made by Americans, though we have not an Ainericaii-built steamer in the Atlantic trade. For many years ten days continued to be a good average fast passage, but new lines starting to compete m passenger and freight trath,; began to rival and surpass the older litea by regularly cutti ig down the teu-Jay tripa, until by 1875 eigiit-day trips began to be common. Tue Wliite Star line was conspicuous for beveral years in this re- spect, though now, as a longer route is tak- 'ii, tin passages are not so (juick. Jn 1876 t L- White S'.ar steamer Britannic made six outward trips, averaging 7 days IS hours 26 in'.utes, the homeward passages averaging 7 ildys, 20 hours 50 minutes. The fastest tiips of the vessels of this line are as follows: (jciiiiauic, 7:11:37 Britannic, 7:10:53 boih made outward in 1877. In 1879 the Celtic made an outwaid passage iu 8:4:25, and the Baltic in 8:0,0. liie Republic made an out- waul passage in ISSl iu 8:1:20. The fastest average ot li.'tyfoiir outward voyages made by the B:itannic since 1876 is S:":17, the average homeward time being 8:3:22. About the same time the Inman line steamers •weie niaking some quick trips. The City of Kichmond made an outward trip in 1875 in 8:0:12 the Berlin in 1877 in 7:14:12; the Chester in 1878 in 8:3:40 and the Brus- sels in the same year in 8:1:39. The Berlin made seven passages outward in 1875 aver- aging 8:10:56. The averages of the Rich- nionU for several years were also under nine day?. The fastest passage ever made by any steamer of the National line was made out- ward by the Spdn in 1872 in F.IGIIT DAY.S AND THIRTEEN HOUB.S. The Egypt has has also made several trips under nine days. The line dee 3 not claim however, to make any better than regular steady nine-day trips to Liverpool at pre- sent. The Cunard line, French line, JN'orth Ger- man Lloyds line, and others also had vessels which made some exceptionally quick trips between 1875 and 1830, but this period may be set down as the nine-day period, though, as shown above, the averages of the voyages of several crack ships during that time was considerably under nine days. The Arizona of the Williams Guion line astouished everybody by cutting under the fastest tiine on record in September, 1881, when she made the voyage this way in 7 days 8 hours 32 minutes. The next mortti she eclipsed this performance, making the run homeward in 7 days 7 hours 48 minutes, the fastest trip she has yet succeeded in making. A year later, however, the Alaska of the same line surpassed even this remark- able feat, making the honeward voyage in 6 days IS hours 37 minutes, and this stands to-day as the fastest on record. A recent trip was almost as quick. She sailed April 28, and arrived here in May 6, making the voyage in 8 days 23 hours and 46 minutes. The best daily run of the Alaska was 447 knots, made in November, 1882. But the steamer Oregon of the sane line, which will be here in Augu.'-t, is expected to outstrip in speed even the Greyhound of the Atlantic, as the Alaska is called. She is being built on the Clyde, by John Elder Son, who also built the Arizona and the Alaska. The Oregon will be 520 feet long, 54 feet beam, and have engines from 13,000 indicated horse-power, 2,000 more than the Alaska, She will have 72 furnaces and 9 boilers, engines of the usual type, three inverted cyTioders, one high-pressure 70 in- ches and two ,low pressure 104 inches diameter, and will be of about 9,000 tons gross tonage. Of course other lines have had to fol- low suit in the direction of speed, and sev- eral are STRIVING AFTER SIX DAY BOATS. The new steamer^Normandie of the French line arrived here May 13, on her first trip, bavine made the run from Havre, 3,200 miles in 8 days, 16 hours. The Alaska led her by about a mile and a quarter, an hoar in average speed, but the Normandie is ex- pected to do much better when the newness 18 worn ofi' the machinery. It must be re- membered, in making comparison?, that the French steamers have a course about 360 miles longer than the Liverpool steamers. The Elbe of the Bremen line made the trip 3,473 miles from the Needles recently in 8 days 7 hours 45 minutes. The City of Rome of the Anchor line has received additional boilers and more powerful engines, and on her recent speed ti ials ii reported to have made 63 revolutions and attained a speed of 18^ knots. ]f so she can beat the Alaska, but the speed trials were probably Kiade iu smooth water. Thomson Co., of Glasgow, are building a new 6,500-ton steamer tor the National line. She is to be 430 feet long, 51 feet beam, and built entirely of steel. She will be named the America, apd it is predicted she will turn out a six-day boat. The Egypt, Spain and Italy of this line have all good models, but their engines are not powerful enough. It is contemplated to take t^.em out one at a time and put in additional boilers and more powerful engines to increase their speed. The Canard line has at present a flyer in the Servia, built of steel at Glasgow in 18S1. She beat the Arizona's time not long ago on the eastward trip, making it in 7 days 5 hours, but has never beaten the Arizona go- ing westward. The Inman line has a 6,000- ton ship, called the City of Chicago, nearly completed which will be here about th« mid- dle of the summer. It is thought that be- fore another year passes one or more of these nev/ crack ships will insugurate the six-day period. The five-day epoch is regarded as being yet rather rnmoie, but steamship men con- sider it by no means improbable that, with the continual improvement in the mechanical science A FIVE-DAY PASSAGE will be made ere many years. Of course, increase of speed means increase ia size, in consumption of coal, and consequent increase of expense. The Oregon will burn nearly 300 tons of coal a day. The old iron steam- er of 2,500 to 3,000 tons is changed to a steel one of 6; 000 to 9,000 tons. The coast- wise steamers we now have are larger than the old trans- Atlantic side- wheelers. Very fast American built steamers, mostly iron, are now engaged in trade between Northern ports, and the improvements in them are equal to those in the steamships engaged in the foreign trade. On both sides of the At- lantic busy brains are at work constantly devjfaing new inventions and appliances to increase speed as well as safety, comfort and luxury, and any improvement soon becomes general under the pressure of the great rival- ry in ocean passenger and freight traffic. For this reason, there is little radical differ- ence to be seen among the first-olass ocean steamships of the present day. The liambeth Dole. At this gate (Morton's Gateway), was distributed the " immortal dole." The meaning of the word "dole" â€" "share" or •' portion" â€" was very literally observed in those days, the archbishops makin;^ up muni- ficent " alms dishes" from their own tables, adding also sums of money. This charity sometimes reached a very grand scale. Arch- bishop Winchelsey being specially mention- ed by Godwin as having "therein excelled all before or after him." " He maintained," says Godwin, " many poor scholars at the universities, and was exceedingly bountiful to other persons in distress. Besides the daily fragments of his house, he pave every Friday and Sun- day unto every beggar that came to his door a loaf of bread of a farthing price, sufficient for one person one day. And there were usually on such alms days in time of dearth to the number of 5,000, but in a plentiful time 4,000, and seldom or never under, which alone summed up £500 per annum. Over and above this he used to give, every great festival day, 150 pence to as many poore people to send daily meate, drink and bread unto such as by rea- son of age and sickness were not able to fetch alms at his gate and to send money, meate, and apparrel to such as he thought wanted the same and ware ashamed to beg." The dole at Lambeth in 1806 consisted of fifteen quartern loaves, nine stone of beef, and rive shillings in halfpence. The beef was made into broth with oatmeal, and the whole dole, divided in three equal portions, was distributed among thirty poor persons who came to receive it in installments of ten persons every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thurs- day in rotation. This "dole" continues to be distributed. â€" Mrs. Z. B. Gustafson, in Harper's Magazine, for June. What He Really Was Afraid of. It 13 said of a rich Philadelphian who has had some experience with silver stock that while on his way to New York recently he sat in the same seat with a well-known burglar for over an hour, and seemed to en- joy his society. When the burglar left the seat along came a well-dressed stranger and dropped into the seat with the remark "1 believe you are Mr. Short of Phila- delphia " "Yes, sir." " Well, Mr. Short, I have been sent East by the stock-holders of the Great Induce- ment Silver Mine to " " Excuse me, sir â€" good morning, sir " in- terrupted Mr. Short, as he seized his grip and moved up eight seats ahead.â€" ^meWcan Mining Journal, made He v- The Sea Serpenrs Rival. The big fish of Lake Tahoe again his appearance day before yesterday, ^j suddenly rose in front of the steamer Go ernorSunford and disputed her passage Ihere was quite a rough tussel for about ten minutes, when the fish leaped upward and snapping off the bowsprit, went away with It in Its mouth. As the fish is making so much treble the owners of the steamers will send below for a harpoon to be fired from a cannon, and will try to kill it Herp tofore thU fish had only be%een tioor thTe^ times m the past twenty-five years.

And _when he buzzes, gosh So let him sleep, and the watchman silently led the .way past the oudad. "Cheese it," broke out the Do you heir that^ watchman An ele- again. â- â-  do you Dhant had evidently kicked his compan ion. at Are the elephants apt to be very restless night?" • "Oh, very. And when 'n elephant la restless, there's a good deal that's restless. They sleep on one side till that's tired and then they flop over on the other. That was a flop over we just heard." "What's this?" asked the reporter, point- ing to something in the path. " That," replied the watchman, following up the obstacle with his lantern, " seems to be part of a camel. But where's the rest ot him Oh, here it is. They stretch out well, don't they? These are magnificent humps- made expresdy for this circus, too. They are harmless. " "What, the hamps?" "No, the camels. And they m .ke no noise at night unless they find shingle naiU in th-ir food. Then they complain." " Don't get too near the business end of that thing," said the watchman, lifting up his lantern so that it waa even darker than before. ' 'That is a mule. Never interfere with a mule's plans, and in approaching him always allow for a contraction and a subse- quent expansion of the muscles. Next to the mule are the zebra-striped ponies. We never venture to use soap on those stripes. Here are some very rare things, and they are as queer as they are rare. They are the giraffes. No one ever heard a giraffe mur- mur. Observe the length of their neck. What a winter resort lor diphtheria You can get something of an idea of their length of neck by picturing in your mind's eye four yards of sore throat and the amount of vinegar and salt required for one gargle. The giraffe is indeedadifEcult thing to keep; he dies so easily and almost wittioat pro- vocation." "This animal here," continued the watch- man, still walking by the caged auimals, "is not, as you might have supposed, a Harlem goat. No this is the sacred bull. It is said he was taken from the Pope." " Is he very sacred " asked the incredul- ous reporter. " Yes he's extremely sacred. He gets more sacred every day. The amount of rev- erence he inspires in his keepers is only equaled by that of the mule." Having reached the end of the stalled aui- mals the watchman announced, by a twist of his lantern, that he was about to come upon the ferocious wild beast in cages. He then put out the lantern, and he and the reporter sat down on the railing that protects the caged animals from the spectators. It was a little early tor the u«nal midnight roar of the animals, but not half so early as the visi- tors had thought. For soon there came from the cage back of them a" noise that startled both of them out of a week's growth. It was the greeting of an African lion. It only required the roar of one lion with good lungs to start the whole menagerie. "That beautiful bird called the emu was the first to reply to the lion's call. The reply was nothing more than a mild form of sneeze but it went a great way. And in less time than it takes to record it the congregation of animals that were endowed with any sort of an apparatus for making a racket had turned their pipes and were blowing and bellowing to see which could make the most noise. It was a lively place to be in with- out any light. But that did not seem to make any difference to the animals. The baboon barked and the rhinoceros grunted And the louder they barked and grunted the louder the lions and tigers grunted Then the elephants joined in the general dis- order there was no pea^e for the wicked. One elephant is usually co\sidered sufficient to supply one family witKftil the noise it wants but when twenty elephants lift up their voices in one sympathetic lamentation, nothing but the deepest coal mine could ever furnish a sofe harbor or a sure retreat Add to this the hair-splitting noises of the cockatoos and the macaws, the mournful lowing of the Nubian rhinoceros and the un- paralleled snore of the hippopotamus, and the effect is appalling. The watchman looked at the reporter and the reporter eyed the watchman. Neither could speak. And It would not have made any difference if ul% ^t ^P°^^\, They might have roared until they were black in the face and still not have made themselves heard Each grasped the other's hand and bolted for the entrance with as much haste pursued by the whole Fork Tribune.
