An Every Day Scene on the Docks of the National Line. From the New York Evening Sun. On the National lino dock yesterday thcro was a mountain of snuff-colored lings just out of the ship. When the stevedores hauled them about everybody’s nose was tickled. “That’s nothing but pepper, all the way from Singapore via London,” said the su perintendent. “How much is there of it?” bo was asked. “Not a great, deal —three or four hundred tons,” was the answer. A muscular longshoreman nt hand said: “Sure we tlhrink it. The barkeepers know we like a dab of it on the head of the growler.” .lust then a clerk came along and Itegan making complaint of the way the men were tearing the bags with their hooks. He pointed to a trail of the spits- along the dock and stiid that his house would make the ship pay for the loss in weight. The superinten dent ordered the men to sew up all leaky bags, and the merchant’s apprentice smiled in satisfaction. In response to questions he replied: “Last December pepper was booming. Everybody thought there was going to be a scarcity of it, and they nil wonted to buy and they did buy. This is tliat same pepper just coming in. it is worth altout a cent a pound loss too lay than they paid for it. I think the most of it cost the buyers some thing like 10 cents a pound. A good many of them are stuck, l’epper is apt to weigh less when it arrives than what you find charged for in your invoices. Some of it will leak out of tears in the lings; some of it will be ‘sampled’ when nobody is looking; but the great loss in weight is believed to result front the fact that it, dries out. The nativ e chaps that grow the berry ship it down all sorts of little streams in all sorts of junks, und it catches a good deal of salt water by the time it is shipped from .Singa pore. Water doesn’t hurt whole pepper in the least unless it is kept wet too long anti allowed to rot, but it adds to its avoirdupois. When you reflect that sixty millions of tisare shak ing it three times a day on almost every thing we eat, is it any wonder we get away with so much pepper; Much of it I suppose is gobbled up by those concerns that make salads anti sauces and pieltlcs and catsups.” Beans Without Pickles. From the lioeton Journal An artist in this city, who lias for years been considered one of the best portrait artiste in Boston, was a few years ago some what poorer than at present. He was ac customed to take his lunch at the little eat ing house situated at that time in the lower part of the old Scolluy building. Beans were then sold at 10c. fter plate. The artist called for “beans.” They were brought to him, but before the waiter left he oliserved that there were no pickles on the table. In his gruff voice he called; “Waiter! Where are your pickles? For heaven's sake, what are beans without pickles?” “Niue cents, sir,” replied the waiter. BAS KB. Daniel Massing, P’t. Conrad X. Jordan, V.P’t.
