man has the knatk roiu-iifthi
of tho Spanish bluejackets ate men who
had never been at sea befoie being im
pressed Into the nainl sen lie. Im

the Spanish naiy has cxpeiluiiiid dui
inf tho past docade 01 two In h'ettiiiK
enough men to man ships Is well known
to thoio who make a ritudy of naial
matters. Impressed Is almost too well
Founding a plnasc- with whlih to ex-pres-s
tho fashion tho Spanish naval ie
erulters h.ivo of.KettniK bluejackets.
The teim lihould rather be shanghaied.
Tho Spanish law forbids the conseiip.
tlon of naval recruits In time of peace.
But If ou ask any Spanish inin-o'-war'b
man how he happened to tako
on In nn outfit wherein he lecelied so
little conhldetatton, tho reply Is apt
to be: "I was drunk."
It Is asserted that a mnjoilty of tho
f-panlsh sailors are men fiom inland
Sialn. The Spanish mcichant sillors,
tlie men living In Spanish ports who
are of nge for service aboard warships,
know too well the cruoltlt-a nnd hard
ships inlllcted upon men forward in
their country's naval son Ico to put
themselves in tho way of being trapped
into it. Tho exact sum which petty
ojilcors on Spanish warships receive for
bilnglng aboard their vessels the vvine
hefuddled lads ivhom they pick up
oshoio in Spanish ports and enchant
with meny tales of thu glorious life led
by tars is, of couise, only known to
themselves and to the manipulators of
Spanish ships' budgets, but that tho
petty ofllcers ore paid, and pietty well
paid, foi this manner of woik, which
Is nothing short of shanghalng. is cer
tain. The writer has frequently heard
drunken pett ofllcers of the Spanish
navy brag of tho number of landsmen
they havo bagged for their ships and
1890.

bulne- Spanls.li pettv oll'eeis. even
within the past (ivo yeats, have been
ambuscaded ailiote and killed by shtp
m ties that thev have thus shanghaied.
A p.i'O of this sort Declined in I'etnam
buio, liiail. in ISO J. A lad who had
brn (Hied vlth lltiuor in Barcelona by
tho thief gunnel 's mate of a Spanish
man-of-wnt and had awakened to lind
liiniself at st a on a Spanish waibhlp
liniiud foi South Amerlia, went ashoie

dead with a snlfe. Ho wa'- rouit-mar-tlaled,

CHl'i:i.TV NOTORIOUS.
Spanish sailors fotwaid are lll-tieat-ed
habitually bv their olllieiri. This
Is not a pieJudUed or an exaggerated
btntcment. It Is llterall true. The
olllters of thu Spanish navy uto for
the most patt ounger sons of good
funillUs who have gttined their billets
nut by abllltj nor through competition,
but tluotigh the Intel cession of their
people at cotut. Thu lncapacltj of
man.v of them Is laughable; their cruel
t Is nototloiM Fiom the ery day
that a Spanlaid Is enlisted In the ship's
coinpani, of one of his countiy's war
vessels enlisted voluntarllj or Invol
untatlb he Is made to feel that ho
Is no better than n beast For the
slightest inflection of regulations ho
is punished In a fashion that makes
his fellow bluejackets In navies like our
own or that of Ciieat litltaln Hush with
angci. The eeutial and consuming
Idea of the Spanish naval officer Is that
all liiimLi fotwaid nio his seivants
Theio Is absolutely nothing of this In
In the Anietleau navj Once In a while
when an Atntilitin ship is nt sia for a
considerable peiiod In tioplcul waters
antl nil hands fore and aft ate vv earing
white unlfotms, nn ofllte-r will pay a
mess attendant for .crabbing one of
his uuifiitms and luing ng It out on the
serub-and-wash line Tie officer who
ieciitsts a man to do anything like this
stands bi to have tho man leiuse. It
Is the man's ptlvllege to lofiu-e out
light to perfeum stub a tnsk for money
or titheiwlse, but if he necepts the Job
he Is well paid foi it In the Spanish
nav evety man foi ward, fiom the
chief petty oltloiis down to tho unrated
landsmen, stands by for the trick ns
valetH for all the otllcers aft. They
aie not asked to waBh the oillceis'
linen, thej are not requested to blacken
the ofllccis" shoes or pipeclay their
bells they nre commanded to do these
things nnd tasks more menial, more
icpugnunt to men of self-respect, nnd
the slightest Indication of Jiesltnniy
on tho pait of the bluejacket is visited
by heavy punishment.
When a Spanish olllcci gets It In for
a chief pettv otllcer for any leal or
fancied cause, he does not immediate
ly undertake to secure the petty otll
cer's disrating. Instead, he begins ss
temutlcjlly to humiliate the petty olll
cer. He culls him lie .names In the
hearing of tho unrated bluejackets and
not Infrequently kicks blm. Ho calls
him aft especially when the petty
oflleer Is showing a party of women
visitors about tho ship nnd orders him
to blacken his shoes, right in sight of
nil hands and nil the visitors on the
main deck Tho writer was a visitor
on boaid u Spanish gunboat nt Cadiz
a few ears ago and saw a chief petty
oflleer the ship's quartermaster
treated In thlB manner by a Junior
lieutenant. Flnnlly. after the Spanish
oflleer who conceives n dislike for (i
petty otneer haB abused and humili
