ENGLISH RAILWAYS.
Means Employed for the Pres
ervation of Life.
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. The larger portion of
Omaha's inhabitants who can le.ive
Lho desk and homo have packed their
trunks , nnd hied themselves to cool
Minnesota , leaving these who nro not
so fortunate , stowing away in envy
and caloric.
