THAMES BARGEES LOSING POWER OF VIVID LANGUAGE London, Feb. b5.-- There was a day when bargemen on the Thames had a language all their own. But now they seem to be growing soft, merely mellow, and admit it. When Lord David Cecil said he thought their reputation for invective was overrated and that the bargees were chiefly' remarkable for "a pleasing old-fashioned courtesy' one of them responded with a poem. Said he: Oh, the bold bargees of London Will soon be wearing spats, And when they pass each other's barge, They'll always doff their hats. Instead of calling, "Hey, you lout!' As they sail up and down, They'll give a bow and gently shout' "Good morning, Mr. Brown." The poem soon spread miles up and down the river.
