Street Cara.
Th* season le fast approaching when
the open street cars will be called In to
Bi.vke way for th* closed ones that are
run In winter. The public will be sorry
to see the open cars go. but the conduc
tors will not mind 1* no greatly. They pre
fer the closed rare, because It Is easier
work for them, a* they are always on
the same level, having no step* up and
down to and from Ihe running hoard
With the closed cars, they can stand on
the rear platrnrm and collect fares with
out having *o much climbing shout.
In rainy weather the ofien cars are par
ticularly disagreeable for conductors, as
they have to make their way about on
the running boards, which are onshelter
<d. It is a difficult matter, too. for them
to see what 1* going on around them
when the rurtatn* are drawn down, and
they scarcely ever know when a passen
ger wants to get on or ofT.
A prtma objection th# conductors have
to the open car* la th* extraordinary
wear and tear on their uniforms they
suse Swinging themselves along, rub
bing elbows and sleeves on Ihe standards
snd the handles to which they elinK and
ihe other additional movements lliey have
to make play havoc wltb their clothes,
making It % hard matter for them lo last
mere than one season' The conductors
ara expected by the company to look neat
r.ri presentable, but they claim the use
of the open car* doe* not conduce to a
tfsllxatjon of the expectation.
With all their objection* to the open
■ r however, th* conductor* would far
Itefer them In th* summer to the closed
ones, as they, as well aa others, apprr

are often listened to with e decree of j
Incredulity, but the story of a ffshhowk
tumbling down the smokestß.-k of th*

that of the Hebrew children. Shadra.-h,

The EstUl was at anchor off
Tybe# bar and Ihe pilot* were on

Suddenly there wu* a swish of wings and
a huge bird swooped down and parched on
Ihe edge of lb# strainer's funnel P.lot :
Am hi one was standing on the de.-k and !
threw up his band at the hawk. With a ;
flap of hls wings the bird disappeared i
down the funnel A fireman who was on

the furnace door and there was

The same dav th* pi lot a brought tn the j
schooner Mary Baird. The captain of the
schooner, when told the story of the fish
hawk, had ana ready that pretty nest
put the pilot* to elevp. Th* schooner
was anchored In Hampton Hoods, when
a huge hawk, with a fish In hi* bill,
alighted on the rigging The mate shook
a stay rope and the bird dropped the fish
on ttock and flew off In a tittle while he
returned with another fish and
again th# mate shook the May and down j
came the fish. Nothing daunted *he
feathered fisherman spread hls wings and
started for mors prey The mate atoned
to gotoer up the fish, when the hawk
came back a third time and settled down
for hls meal The mate looked askance
at th# huge creature, but. Ilk* a mariner
bold, shook the stay rope again and down

That was the laat seen of him and the
crew of the Mary Baird had fish for
