THE DOGWATCH.
No One Seems to Know For Certain
How It Got That Name.
The simplest facts, quite unchal
lenged and taken for granted, are
often the hardest subjects for in
vestigation. “Did you ever ask a
sailor or a know-it-all why the dog
watch is so called?” queries a
writer in the New York Sun who
has himself made the experiment.
The chances are that the answer
will be, “Why, the dogwatch is two
short spells from 4 to G and from 6
to 8 o'clock in the evening to
break the regular four hour
watches, so that the same men will
not have to stand watch during the
same hours every day.”
Simple and lucid. But why
“dog?” In a hunt after an expla
nation the first question was put
to the officers’ mess of a big battle
ship. Not one, from the executive
officer of a quarter of a century's
service to the ensign with his first
stripe, could answer.
A boat’s crew from the same
ship failed to throw any light on
the subject, although a gunner’s
mate allowed that “it might be
they once had dogs on ship and
they was let loose when this watch
was on.”
An officer of an Atlantic liner
said he never had heard so silly a
question.
“Why, the dogwatch is the dog
watch,” he explained. “There’s no
why or wherefore about it. It’s
always been the dogwatch, and it
always will be.” *
Having had the matter so airily
disposed of by this officer, inquiry
was pushed to the East river, where
may he found men who have been
going down to the sea in real ships
for many years. The pursuit of
the “dog” was useless.
“Say,” said a Harlem boatman,
“what’s the matter with trying
‘Fighting Boh?’ If he can’t tell
you the great American navy will
lose caste.”
So up to Rear Admiral Evans
went the query. And from Fort
Monroe came the answer:
U. S. S. Connecticut. Sept. 2.
Dear Sir—l am unable to give you the
information you ask about the dogwatch.
Of course we all know why the watch 1b
made two hours, but no one seems to
know why the name dog was applied.
Yours very truly, R. D. EVANS.
At last a public library was re
sorted to. The dictionaries were
merely provoking. “Five Thou
sand Facts and Fancies” was the
only book found that threw light
on the matter. Its explanation
reads:
“Dogwatch, a corruption of dodge
watch. The dogwatches were intro
duced to prevent the same men
from always keeping watch the same
hours of the day; hence on these oc
casions the sailors are said to dodge
the routine, or to be doing dodge
watch.”
It may be added that Murray’s
great English dictionary gives a
quotation introducing the term dog
watch from a book published in
1700, but gives no theory of the
origin of the term.
Now She Feels Safer.
A certain Bronx housewife has
been terribly worried of late. She
has been in the midst of a palm
reading fest, and all her palmist
friends have told her f>f dire things
that are going to happen to her in
the future. She finally got a book
on the subject and began to study
it carefully. She was really unhap
py about the situation until the
other day. Now she declares every
thing is all right.
‘'You see, 1 employed a new 7
cook,” she said, “and there’s a lot
about cooking she didn’t know. I
looked into her palm and fourj her
head line beautifully developed.
When I discovered her- cooking tur
nips with the jackets on I knew
there was nothing in palmistry or
she would have had no head line at

caused nit' much annoyance. I
sometimes had to get up as many
as four or five times at night and
as a consequence my rest was greatly

backache. Being advised to try

“For one, I aint never been able
for to understand Tom,” said Mr.
Billy Sanders. “He done a mighty
good day’s work when he shuck up
the insuraee companies an’ caused
’em to be touseled by the minions
of the law; but what did he expect
the people to do except setback an'
tiujoy the whole show? What could
they ’a’ done? How could they ’a’
backed Tom any more than they
did? The people can’t organize a
mob an’ eorreet tilings except in
certain specified cases; they’ve got
to get things done iu the regular
way, an' sometimes that’s harder!
to do than to git a bunch ofehawin
gum out’n a slot machine. Take the
people one by one, an’ they’re
mighty unsatisfactory to me, but
take ’em as you take bay, in the
bulk, an’ they’re party grand when
they aint hungry an’ out’n work.
“I remember mighty well that
when me an’ Billy Bryan was de
feated for president, an' free silver
was put on the shelf vvliar nobody
could reach it I had the idea that
the people was human frauds. A
big majority of ’em was for free
silver, but when it come to a show
down they blushed like the play
actors does, an’ give me an’ Billy
the back of the’r hand. You may
well believe that I forgot all the.
