’f DAILY BMQUIRgR • BPS: OOLDMBUB. OWIIWI*. FRIDAY MORBIITO. OCTOBER 14. 1887. EMBARKING THE MAILS. Scene* on on Oeean Steamer et Queens town. A P»e, st the Steerage Fwm»tn-ti the Tender Drewe Alongside-Freeh React., of Irlnh Chil dren— t'oiatlag the Nall Hag*—Outward Bound. He must be a very nnlmprcsnloneMo person whose interest Is not roused by the scene on nn American innil steumeron the dny after she leaves Liverpool, as she steams along the Irish const in the brlKht sunlight of n breezy morning. The vary ing forms and colors of headland and Shore would alone be worthy of notice; but the curious mass of humanity gath ered on the great ship Is perhaps more in teresting. And it must he admitted that the saloon passengers, taken as a whole, have to the observer less of interest nn<l character than the miscellaneous throng who collect in the less favored quarters of the ship. There is a monotonous appear ance of comfort and prosperity about the saloon passengers-—each with his private chair—which renders them a little dull. But every step among the steerage pas sengers gives rise to a guess or a reflec tion. Here is a sturdy fellow from a Yorkshire iron works on his way to the states to seek for employment. Close by the saloon door is a laborer from Wilts— tall, raw honed, witli a couple of children and a weary wife. The whole family have an air of despondency atiout them which does not augur well for their future. A couple of Italian masons are laughing and joking witli very light hearts indeed; and so one by one, eucli differing from tlio other—sail or glad, hopeful or despomleut, full of confidence in the future or feeling that across the ocean life cannot he harder than at home—the miscellaneous throng moves alMiut the ship. MOVKMKNT AND BUSTLE. But the white buildings on Roche’s point gleaming In the sunlight tell that the vessel is nearing Queenstown, and a feeling of movement and hustle comes over passengers and crew. There Is talk of a run ashore; there is an eagerness to see the lust British port, a haste to post the last letters U> friends In England. The ship slowly steams up the harbor, past the heights of Carlisle fort, and on as if she were 1mmini straight to the white terraces of Qnpenstown. Uriel mil ly she ceases to make headway, and comes to a standstill between the little village of Whitegates and the bleak sides of Spike island. The tender is approaching; hut already boats full of untidy girls, selling apples and with baskets of hog oak ornaments and lace, have surrounded the ship. As the tender draws alongside it is evident that the mails have not arrived; there are only piles of luggage and a crowd of passengers. Borne are English or Americans who have crossed through Ireland to shorten the voyage by some sixteen hours, or to viHit Killnrney; most ure emigrants from Ire land. Soon t he throng of Irish pours over the gangway—a widowed father carrying his infant, followed by half a dozen brown eyed gentle looking children; a stalwart youth with a comely sister; a hard wizen faced old farmer in a coat of frieze dowu to Ids heels, with his wife. Nothing is more striking than the fresh beauty of the Irish children and t he withered hardness of the middle aged and elderly men and women. Most of them carry their wordly goods in a bag or a handkerchief. Thetr heaps of lieiiding, with the tin utensils for the voyage fas tened to them, are pitched one after an other on the deck, while the owners vainly try to push past, the line of seamen to secure their property. It would be a sad sight, this hurrying of these people from their homes, if one could forget the squalid misery from which they are escap ing. But l lie tender has been emptied, and Is oil' again for the shore to meet liio mails. The train Ibis just drawn up, and soon tiles of pork rs, like a line of ants, are putting the sacks on board, and the tender is prepared to make her second trip. COUNTING Till! MAILBAGS. This time she has scarcely any other •urden hut the malls; and so, when she comes alongside of the steamer, a dozen of the crew are very soon at work piling them on the deck of tlie ship. An otHcer counts the bags as they come on board— “one, two, three, four, live,six,seven,eight, nine, ten, tnlljx’’ So they go over the gangway by tens. They took up a great part of the space on the tender, and they make « huge pile on the steamer; some 80(1 sacks of letters and iwpcrs make it possible to realize the vast correspondence of the present day. But for some time the grout ship has been slowly moving seaward with the tug attached to her amidships, and the lino of seamen hurry ing, each with his sack, across the gang way. The long dark sides of the mail steamer, and her lofty upper deck, quite dwarf the tender; the captain looking down from his bridge seems far aloft. The railings are lined with hundreds of faces—there are fully a thousand passen gers on the ship—watching the mails come on board. Every one except the regular passengers between New York and Liverpool, of whom there are always several on board, look a little anxious. Most of the poorer men and women are sad. It is a curious spectacle to stand on the bridge of the tender and look nlong the sides of the Nhip at the great vessel and the varying faces on her. But the last bag is on hoard, the bell on the steamer is sharply struck, and a few friends of the passengers, n newspaper boy, and some other miscellaneous persons hurry on board the tender to go ashore. The haw sers are cast otf and tHe little tug steams ahead of the big ship, rounds to for the shore when she has got some lengths ahead, and is soon, with the quick, rapid strokes of her wheels, making for the quay at Queenstown. The great steamer steals away to the sea with n kind of irre sistible and almost imperceptible motion. The passengers’ forms soon become invisi ble, and the big, black hull nnd high masts gradually grow less distinct as "the liner” passes away by the mouth of the harbor, heading for the west. As the ten- del touches the' quay side the mail steamer is rounding the headland by the sea, and In a few minutes all that can be seen from the shore is the distant liueof smoke which tells of her course across the At lantic.—St. James’ Gazette. DANCING TURKEYS. Device of a Creel hit Ingenbio* Barkeeper to At tract Custom. Philadelphia News. In a saloon on Frankfort avenue, below Norris street, a News reporter yesterd *y saw Tobacco Haloed la F.itrlaad, Mr. Francis De Lanue,ot Shar ped Court, county Kent, has attracted to himself the admiring eyes of the British nation, by suc cessfully rn’slng and harvesting a crop of tobacco. It is Baid to be the first over raised in England. The government baa graciously given consent that he shall go on with his experiment, but insists that lie ris street, a Hews reporter yesteraiy , t - hI the same as two turkeys dancing to the strains of j was iZo&d ret th anorguinette. It was a' strange Bight to i tobacco was im P orled ungainly birds bobbin; see the ungainly birus bobbing up and dowD, first on one foot, then on the other, then up with both feet, circling and wheeling around each other, chasseing and changing sides, keeping perfect time with an orguniette turned by the hand of the barkeeper. AU the onlookers were mystified, whilo the barkeeper grinned-and rskud in the nickels which were paid over the bar by the amused crowd. Though the turkeys apparently kept time to the music, when the reporter no ticed that they danced on when tbo music stopped, raising first one foot and then the other, and as they warmed to their work their steps grew faster and faster, and ttie musician raising his speed to keep up with the jumping birds. The turkeys whilo going through their performance, were confined in a wire cage at the end of of the bar. The cage was about three feet square and five feet high, and tbe floor of the cage was thin sheet-iron. The News man, after the crowd went out, investigated tbe dancing turkeys and discovered the method by which they were taught — or rather compelled — to move. He found that tbe plan waa ingen ious, though cruel. They were made to danee by means of fire. Underneath tbe sheet-iron cage floor there was a shelf set, leaving a space of about three inches, into which was fitted an Iron slide. When the men wanted the turkeys to dance he would quietly get a shovel of live coals from the kitchen stove, distribute them over the iron slide and slip it into place tinder the sheet-iron cage door, and in five minutes the turkey fandango would be in full blast. First one foot would be raised, then the other, and so on, the pace The Yftriiti't Unanimous. W. D. Hull, druggist, Bippus, Ind., testi fies: “lean recommend Electric Bitters as the very best remedy.

The Military Neandal of Parta Prom to a Vary Hmall Affair. New York, October 11.—The following dispatch has been received by the Courier dee Etats Unis from Paris: “The excitement caused in Franoe by the arrest of General Cafl'arel, accused of hav ing traded in decorations, continues very great, but. after all, the affair Is less seri ous than had at first been supposed. Tbe scandal is reduced to a traffic In civilian decorations and to some swindling in military supplies, but it is now certain that no state secret has been sold to Germany by this venal officer. The Temps publishes on thiB point a reassuring article, in which it says that It is impossible to sell to the enemy the mo bilization plan of the French army, for the very good reason tbot, to speak accurately, no such plan is in existence. It is simply a group of ministerial instructions, giving to the cbels de corps all the information necessary to enable them to bring tbe strength of the troops placed under their orders up from the peace footing to the war footing. There does not exist a plan of concent ration of the troops mobilized, which is composed of a series of studies providing lor the most diverse combina tions; but to cart away from the ministry of war the archives containing these studies would require several teams; and, as for believing that this plan of concentra tion could be copied or made away with, that is a hypothesis which is not worth dis- Ifcussiiig. ‘-Attempts have been made to embroil Gen. Boulanger in this affair, because it was he who, being tbe minister of war, appointed Gen. Uallarel sous chef d’etm major at the ministry, but a dispatch from Clermont-Ferrand sets forth the facts which had been ignored in making up tit story. According to this dispatch, Gen. Cafl'arel was appointe d nt the request of tlio chef d’etat major, at the ministry ol war. Gen. Cafl'arel was only six weeks under the orders of Gen. Boulanger, while no has been four months under Uen. Fcr- ron, the present minister of war. The German newspapers nature ly make a great fuss over this unfortunate affair, which they seek by every possible mums to turn to the discredit of France.” Ilim Rni-riauo Change* a Ran.

The Bessemer monopolists coolly Inform the American public that an “arrange ment” will be made to prevent any "de moralization” in the price ot steel rails. By this they meantthat their combination, sitting behind their tariff' hedge will not perim* American consumers to obtain steel rails at just and nominal rates. Steel rails were profitably made in this eonntrv during 1885 for fdti per ton. But the Bessemer monopolists, under cover of the J17 duty, have extorted for two years ft-om fits to fill a ton for steel rails. Last year they divided, on a production of 2,000,000 tons of steel rails, nt least $20,000,- 000 among fourteen or fifteen members of the combination over and nbove the legiti mate pre-fits. That is what the tariff does for one of the protected monopolies in this country. If the production of steel rails should increase at such a rate as to lower prices the Bessemer combination would pay one of Us mills for lying idle for a year or two. In this tvay prices may be main tained against consumers, nnd all danger of “demoralization” be averted. Menitiag Matter*.
