A Comparison Between the British Sjctom nnd That of Amor- Ion Superiority of the Former. 3n FroncUco Chronicle. "I'll toll you what , " said ix certain Yimkoo tourist to a rccoptivo policeman - man , aa ho stood before Victoria's throne in the English houto of lords , "I'm ' jest proud of old England when I look around mo and see nil ot this hero. Now , wo can't como up to you in finery and all that , but wo do jest KO right ahead of you in steam cars i an' spch like. " Those words , uttered with more attention to plain facts than rhetorical elegance , expressed n truth which is generally conceded , yet , not withstanding the superior style nnd comfort of the American car , the tiny English vehicle is so attractive to the average English traveler that there is little possibility of its being superse ded. An English railway train is sui generis. At least there is nothing like it in America , Called by n cer tain writer "n string of little insig- nificancics , with a fat , dumpy little plaything at its head , " little imposing dignity will bo iound about it as a whole , yet such a means of convey ance is necessary in a country where caste is so strongly marked , and whpro rank nnd wealth are the distinguishing traits of the national growth. Just us the Englishman considers the hotel to bo an advanced form of the board ing house , whore the privacy of home life ia in a measure retained at the expense - ponso of the general public , so the railway car is only an advanced form of the old-fashioned stage-coach , nnd differing from it not much , except in the division into compartments , nnd in the rate of speed nt which it is pro pelled. The superiority of the Ameri can mode of traveling to that of Eng land is pretty well known. In the one country hotel , parlors and palace cars are as common iia hacknoy-coachos in the other , while thuro are no hotel nor parlor cars , and but ono single service of palace cars in all England. The English cars generally are limited to three classes ; the same varying prrcatly on different roads. Each car ia divided in several compartments , mostly four each compartment being entered by a door on the side , and separated by a closed partition from the compartment adjoining. These partitions render impossible the char acteristic long halls of the American train , and only by means of a small platform extending on the outside can one section bo entered from another. This platform is utilized by the guard in collecting the tickets of the pas sengers , and the same are passed to him through the compartment win dow. BACKWARD HIDING. The cars being entered on the side , one-half the passengers must ride backwards , and if the train bo full , the four persons who enjoy the win dow seats are the only ones who ride with comfort and who catch oren im perfect glimpses of the aconery through which the train passes. The first-class compartments , which are patronized by "fools , princes and Americans , " as the customary formula runs , are the most expensive of nil and in comfort and elegance approach the nearest to our own Pullman cars. The floor is generally covered with n rug , which is clean and now. The windows glisten and are tastefully curtained. The seats are luxuriously cushioned nnd the guard is obsequious and obliging. The second-class com partments are patronized by the bet tor class of tradesmen and professional men and gentlemen , and as a rule are not much loss comfortable than the first. The floor is often bare , but clean , the seats are less elegantly up- bolstered and the guard is civil , but neither so obsequious or obliging. A good Becond-class car in England or Germany is often more richly fur nished than , the average first-class car of Italy or Franco , but in either coun try cushions , curtains and comfort are generally wanting in the third- class compartments. In the English compartments the floor is ba'ro arid often covered with dirt , the windows are dusty and the boards for. seats are unusually hard. On account of the low rates of faro the mass ot the Eooplo prefer this class , and whatever o the route the cars nro generally crowded. This difference in rates is a greater element in determining the car than ono would suppose , and the same may bo learned from the fares between Liverpool and London by the Northwestern company's trains , that for n first-class carriage being about $8.20 in American currency ; for n second clans , $5.75 , and for a third class only $4. The third class co- partment , too , may bo on the same car with the first ; or , if'not attached , nt least to the same train. In addi tion to the usual number of compart ments for the accommodation of the passengers , there ia a compartment for guard or lugtrago van ; and , since an Englishman , his umbrella and dog are generally inseparablu , n "Inund van" is also something added , First-class passengers are allowed more baggage than the third , though in cither casu articles which can bo crowded under the seat go free , The word baggage , BO common in America , is unknown in England , luggage being the word everywhere used. All luggage la weighed " ed , but is never checked , and for any excess n ticket is required. THE MOTIVE 1'OWEU. The locomotive is a cute little ma chine , which reminds ono of a good- sized toy , but with immense power with respect to its size. It rattles along the track with a pace seldom equaled in other parts' of the world , and seldom does a break or accident occur. THe whistle is low , sharp and shrill. Most Sail Francisco hoodlums would have b.ut little difficulty in imi tating it on their fingers , and with lungs powerful enough a noise equally ns loud might bo produced. A great railway corporation is said to have no soul , and this may account for the fact that the engineer and "stoker" ol an English locomotive have apparently no protection from the extremes 9) ) the weather , but are exposed the yeai round to driving rain , scorching heat , piercing fog and { feezing cold. A very slight sum , judiciously expended , would afford these employes the neces sary shelter nnd protection , and why such comfort should bo denied is ono of those railroad problems which but few mortals are able to fathom and explain. But if the English cars nro inferior to those of America , the man agement of the line is vastly superior. The track is straight and smooth and beautiful. It is guarded by law from vandal foot with as much care as the garden spots of the country lords , and for any ono to walk along the line erin in other wny trespass upon the prop erty of n railway corporation would bo n gross transgression of private rights , nnd quito beside the question. Pas sengers are "respectfully requested" or ' 'earnestly solicited" to cross the track bv the bridge or pass under by moans of n tunnel , and if the request or solicitation be unheeded n fine of 40 shillings is demanded. All city streets and country roads and * paths cross the track , either above or below the common level , nnd to attain this end the most ingenious shifts are often employed. To keep the line straight nnd level it is carried through a hill rather than around it , nnd the tunnels nro constructed in the most elaborate and expensive way. Not only are the tunnels constructed with reference to architectural grandeur , but the stone nnd iron work ot tlm drains , viaducts and bridges show the most liberal out lay in accordance with the object to bo nttainod. This largo expenditure is especially true in London itself. From Charing Cross ono can tnko a train every few min utes from tlm level of the street or ho can ascend a stairway and tnko another nbovo many of the housetops , or ho can descend into the earth and take still another nwny below the surface. The metropolitan or under ground system of railways in the great jity provides most admirably for rapid transit between a'ations In the city and stations in the suburbs. _ Tliia system consists mainly of a series of tunnels with almost as many branches as the catacombs of Rome , with openings hero nnd there to the sur- f.vco for the ascent nnd descent of passengers. There is made nn almost complete circuit of the city , so that a passenger may start from some central point , as Moorgato street , near the bank , and after traveling for an hour finds himself back at Moorgato street again. Notwithstanding the enor mous cost of such n line its advanta ges are readily seen. Except foraged iind feeble persons the ascent and de scent of the stairways nro easy ; the danger from collissionand accident on the surface is avoided ; and the space nbovo is loft to bo utilized for other necessary purposes. TASTEFUL STATIONH. But if the English railway lines in general are constructed with little care for the curtailing of expense the cul mination of taste scorns to center in many of the * stations. This is true moro especially of the stations in smaller towns than in the largo cities , but in all England a rickety or tumbledown ble-down structure could scarcely bo found. In the larger cities , as London , Liverpool and Birmingham , the sta tions are elegant structures of wood and glass , and are supplied with every convenience the traveler can demand. In each may be found three classes of refreshment rooms , corresponding to the three classes of cars ; nowstands , which might more rightly bo called bookstores , since the stock is not much inferior to tliat of the dealers in Booksellers' How ; parcel rooms , where luggage is cared for at a nomi nal price , thus relieving tourists from bother while "doing" the town ; lug gage-rooms , hotel accommodations and the other appendages necessary to the enjoyment of travel. But while the smaller English cities can boast of stations rivaling in elegance these of Chicago or Now York the smallest stations are often the feature of their respective towns , and being substantially built are decorated in the most iinishcd and artistic mannori Each station consists'-of two parts , ono on each side of the track , and each section has often its own booking oflice , refreshment , luggage nnd other rooms. Hound about are seen beds containing roses , honoysuclclo , sweo't- brier and other ( lowers , and these beds are sometimes arranged so as to form the name of thestation , itself. There are no crumbling fences , piles of loose dirt or other indiscriminate rubbish scattered aroun'd , "but'tho walks are scrupulously clean and regular nnd the ground is tastefully sodded. In these stations are posted maps and notices ad ivfinitum , and the most trivial chances are everywhere provided for. It has Ibeon affirmed that it is a moro difficult process for a foreigner to make hia wny 100 milca in England than 500 miles in America , and any ono who has over attempted to unravel the mysteries of an intricate time table in Bradsliaw's Guide will lose no time in subscribing to the affirmation. Passengers are not ticketed from ono station to an other , but "booked , " and if the journey bo of any considerable extent the latter term is certainly the moro applicable , since the traveler is sup plied with a miniature volume in which is seemingly a check for every considerable town through which the train passes. Even the "oldest in habitants" are puzzled often to dis tinguish between the changes and nro forced to question the guaid like the veriest stranger. It has boon said that it takes moro than n merely hu man understanding to grasp the sys tern of the London lines , and the say ing might bo extended to include al most every prominent system in Eng land. CHEAP KX < TUJlSlONH. Owing1 to the lew rates of faro and the largo number of popular resorts in the vicinity of th.o.largor cities , the excursion business is ono of the prom inent features in English railway man agement , and the wonder often is how so many sights and1 BO much enjoy ment can bp offered for the trifling sum which is demanded. Five shil lings will give the London excursion ists a day oi | the sands at Margate ; two shillings and sixpence will taka him to Windsor and return , and show him the castle and eoino of the finest scenery in rural England ; ono shilling will take him to Hampton court , built by Cardinal \Volsoy , and another to Epping forest , the favorite resort for picnic parties ; four shillings wjll toke him to Brighton and.show him ono oi the , finest aquariums in the world. ; nnd on'o shilling and /rispenco will pay his faro to Bydenham , . admit him to the famous Crystal Palace , a magnificent exhibition of fireworks , a first-class variety performance , a promenade concert , a museum of nrt and lesser sights innumerable. Saturday is the visiting and excursion day , and nt this time tlio number of trains is largely increased , and these in every direction are crowded with enthusiastic sight seers and with people out for a day's ease nnd enjoyment. The beauty of English rural scenery has often been remarked , but seldom accurately dcs- cribod. The country along the rail way lines is enlivened by proves of grand old trees and gentlemen's scats , and the views in general are unspeak ably rich. E cry hcdgo is trimmed with remarkable carotho hay andgraiji utacks nro constructed with mathema tical precision , and the graveled roads nro shaded so ns to give n pleas ing lolief to the scenery. From Liv erpool to Dover the country ia little else than n beautiful park , inter spersed hero and there with cities nnd quaint old towns , the soil capable of the highest cultivation , and the land scape in general offering every nt- traction which the rules of the artist would demand , In a country like this it in not to bo wondered nt that the railway lines should be construct ed and cared lor in n most elaborate and expensive way ; and while short distances partly obviate the necessity of sleeping cars by night and parlor cars by day , yet were n few moro im provements added to the rolling stock in general , superior lines of transpor tation in the world could not bo found , Yankco inventions , you know , are not after nil , quito the thing for the English public ; but until moro of them nro adopted , their railway sys tem will fall yet short of the position which its merits deserve. SOCIALLY STEWING In the Heat of Summer. JL'ho P. F. O. Party Notes' ' and Jottings. ' THE WEEK. The social season in Omaha may be said to bo taking a rest. With the Pleasant Hours party , most of the social clubs will close the season , and the heat will prevent for soiuo weeks to como any extended parties or en tertainments.
