It was found to be a bad scheme. While most of the men were able to use the rum in moderation, it was found that there were many of the bluejackets in whom the service of ration of liquor only served to stimulate an appetite for more, and who, after imbibing the ship’s grog, would ‘‘hit the beach, ’’ em- bark upon sizeable sprees and get into scrapes both ashore and aboard ship when they returned to duty more or less shaky. When these facts were sat- isfactorily proved, the serving out of grog to United States man-of-war’s men was discontinued. Sailors in all of the others of the world’s great navies still receive their daily grog. The fact probably does not prove any- thing, but the writer, who has seen man-of-war’s men of all nations on tu- ‘ multuous shore liberty in quite a few ports of the world, has yet to see a French, Italian or Spanish bluejacket thrash a British man-of-war’s man in a fair stand up fight, such as heavy weather men of the navy are bound to mix up in when ae in hitting the beach. The reason why the fact prob- ably proves nothing is that the Ameri- can man-of-war’s man, who gets no grog at all aboard his fighting packet, also invariably contrives to chew up his Latin antagonist in a naval uniform. The only thing that the average old time American bluejacket likes better in a port on the China station, say, than a fight with a French, Italian or Span- ish man-of-war’s man, is a fight with three or four of ’em put together. The Latin sailors may scratch him up a bit with their finger nails—their methods of fighting may be judged from this fact —but when the cops, otherwise the gendarmes, appear on the scene—to get mauled asound a heap themselves in many cases-—they generally have a few laid out south European deep water men to sort out of the dust. —Exchange. a WARE - HOUSES TO LET PEAKE’ WHARF | (WO 1) Wharfage storage and yard- ag? at reasonable rates.
