To-day there are no prisons for the crews of merchantmen, brt they can so to the bottom by mine and tor- pedo even more quickly than their ancestors were run into La Havre. The submarine takes the place of the privateer; the Line, as in the old days, is occupied. bombarding and blockad- lng elsewhere, but the sea-borne traf~ flc must continue, and that is being looked after by the lineal descendants of the crews of the long extinct cut- ters and sleeps and gun brigs. The hour struck, and they re-appeared to the tune of fifty thousand men in more than two thousand ships, of which 1 have seen a few hundred. Words of command may have changed a little; the tools are certain- ly more complex, but the spirit of changed a little; the tools are certain- ly more complex, but the spirit of the new man who come to the old Job is utterly unchanged. It is the same fierce. hard-living, heavy-handed very cunning service out of which the Navy as we know it to-day was born. It is called indifferently the Trawler or Auxiliary Fleet. It is chiefly com- posed of fishermen. but it takes every- one who may have maritime tastesâ€" from retired adiuirals to the son of the sea-cook. It. exists for the benefit of the traffic and the annoyance of the enemy. Its doings are recorded by flag stuck into charts; its casual- ties are uried in obscure corners of the newspapers. The Grand Fleet knows it slightly; the restless light cruisers who chaper- one it from the background are more Intimate; the- destroyers working 02': unlighted coasts over unmarked shoals come. as you might say. in direct contact with it; the submarine alternately praises andâ€"since on: periscope is very like anotherâ€"curses its activities, but the steady proces- sion of traffic in home waters, line-2' and tramp, six every sixty minutes. blesses it altogether. Fairways Must Be Swept Since this most Christian war in- cludes laying mines in the fairways of traiiic, and since these mines may be laid at any time by German sub- marines especially built for the work. or by neutral ships, all fairways must be swept continuously day and night. When a nest of mines is reported. traffic must be hung up or deviated till they are cleared out. When trai- flc comes up Channel it must be When a nest of mines is reported. traffic must be hung up or deviated till they are cleared out. When trai- flc comes up Channel it must be examined for contraband andâ€"~other things; and the examining tugs lie out in a blaze of lights to remind Ihips of this. Months ago. when the war was young, the tugs did not know what to look for Specially. Now they do. All this mine searching and reporting and sweeping, plus the direction and examination of the traffic, plus the laying of our own even shitting mine bids. in put of the Trawler Fleet?

Add to tbli. that there are boats. fishing for real fish, to be protected in their work at sea or chased of! dangerous areas 9where. because they are strictly for- vbidden to go, they naturally renair; iand you will begin to get some idea 30f what the Trawler or Auxiliary EFleut (108:3.

The small sniffing man is reported to be a “holy terror at sea." The child in the Pullman Car uni form just going ashore is a wireless operator aged nineteen. He is at- tached to a flagship one hundred and twenty feet long, under an admiral aged twenty-five, who was till the other day, third mate of a North At- lantic tramp, but now leads a squad- ron of six trawlers to hunt submar- lnes. The principle is simple enough. Its application depends on circum- stances and surroundings. One type of German submarine meant for mur- der off the coasts may use a winding and rabbit like track between shoais where the choice of water is ii nited 1 1111' cazeer is rare‘ ;1 lcrg, ‘ 11 . 212le it lasts moderately exciti :1? Others, told off for deep sea assas- sinations, are attended to quite quiet- ly and without any excitement at all. Uthers. again, work the inside of the North Sea, making no distinction between neutrals and allied ships. These carry guns and since their work keeps them a good deal on the surface, the Trawler Fleet, as we know, engages them thereâ€"the sub- marine firing, sinking and rising in unexpected quarters; the trawler tiring, dodging, and trying to ram. The trawlers are strongly built and can stand a great deal of punishment. Yet, again, other German submarines hang about the skirts of fishing fleets and fire into the brown of- them. When the war was young this gave splendid- ly “frightful" results, but for some reason or other, the game is not as popular as it used to be. Lastly. there. are German submaro ines who perish by ways so curious and inexplicable that one could al- most credit the whispered idea (it must come from the Scotch skippers) that the ghosts (f the women drown- ed lead them to destruction. But what form those shadows take -â€"â€"whether of the Lusitania ladies, or humbler stewardesses or hospital nurses, and what lights or sounds the thing fancies it sees or hears before it is blotted out, no man will ever know. The main thing is that the work is being done. Whether it was necessary or politic to re-awaken by violence every sporting instinct of a sea-going people is a question which the enemy may have to consider later OD. Every British tar wears a perman- ent memorial of the hero of Trafal- gar. The three rows of white tape round the edging of the familiar blue sailor collar commemorate Nelson’s victories at Copenhagen, the Nile, and Trafalgar; whilst the black sill: scarf was adopted in mourning for the great Admiral as a spontaneous tribute by the seamen themselves, and has been stained ever since by the author“ A Really Simple Principle A Permanent Decoration ged man in the Ulster meted comforter is a ' skipper, worth several 2 and his crew, who are n relations, keep them- 1907509. and grimly save 'm'nor of the big LI‘dWlel‘ on which .wer.
