THE MAN ON THE BRIDGE.

Much the most interesting article which has appeared for some timo past in the Atlantic Montlly is the opening ono in a recont number, sttitled "The Man on the Bridge," by Lisatanand C. T. Dolaner. It has sometimes been asserted that the deck ti a modern liner in the safest place in the world, but from this article it would appear that such is very far from being the case. Everything is left to the officer on watch, and he, poor min, is sometime so dog-tired that he can starely keep his ́oyes open,, and is no more is to be left in charge {han a lunatio." The writer says see

I have been left in charge of a linar carrying a crow of five hundred, tyouty- two bundred storage passengers, three- hundred second class and about thrise bundred Grat, in all about thirty-three hundred in These, in addition to the valuable ship and freight, have been under my charge at a time when I have been from thirty to forty hours on my feet, and with- out sleep er rest. The safety of all has depended upon my vigilance at a time THE BEST IN LENSES. when soul, mind, and body have long been worn out.

Passengers often ask, "Who is that bey on the bridge?" and Where is the captain?" The captain on an Atlantic liner seems not very often on the bridge, but the "boss" on it, though they may look boyish, are men in experience and qualifications. And when the captain is on the bridge, it may be that he is too old, or has been on duty too long to be able either to see clearly or hear distinctly. In justice to the captain and passengers alike, the writer asks, should not the command in cass of emergency be handed over to the chial officer?
