“Mike,” the Battliru lary,
Entertains America’s Passengers.
I
“Mike” and Chief Steward Schickel.
NEW YORK, Jan. "3.—t?i
hours of sWings of lug passenger
steamships are as rigidly adhered to
as are railroad schedules and it takes
something of great moment to hold a
vessel at her pier alter sailing time.
| Lul there are exceptions to tnc rule,
as was evidenced at a recent sailing ol
the ‘Winer, i” of the United States
Lines, which was delayed for the
smallest r.is n, in a physical sense,
that ever held up a departure.
l ime came to cast oft the mooring j
lines. Then it was discovered that 1
“Mike," the famous sea-going canary,
owned by Paul Schickel, chief stew- ;
ard of the “America,” was not aboard.
While passengers asked the reason for i
the delay stewards rushed about and |
finally located “Mike” aboard the
“President P Ik” on the other side i
of the pier where bo was flitting from '
rage to cage of Hartz Mountain ca-1
narics that ssel had just brought in
from Mur •. “Mike” refused to
come to Sch kcl until he lracl wel
comed a!! his cousins and in the
meantime the “America” was prevent
ed from sailing, for t6 proceed to sea
without the little songster would have
been without precedent.
, To passengers who traveled aboard
(the America, “Mike,” who is never
docked in a cage and has the full run
[of the ship, is a constant source of
delight.
I The bird is a great singer and loves
good music. He will fly into the music
room and perch on the grand piano
while some one is playing, occasion
ally joining in with his piccolo-hki
obligato, if a false note is struck,
however, ‘Mike" shows his resent
ment by shrill chirps an i fluttering!
about the hands of the performers.
“Mike" shows tip at all ship dances !
and hops about on the j ano when
waltzes arc played, but, if the orches
tra plays too discordant jazz music, j
he flics away.
Entertaining the passengers in the
third cabin is a duty which “Mike"
has taken on himself and he is often
found there perched on some chil l's
shoulder while he goes through his
entire repertoire for an admiring
group.
"Mike" has a serappy nature and is
able to tak<- care of himself in every
way. lie is not at all afraid of the
ship’s cat. who,from experience, knows
that the long claws of the canary can
inflect nasty scratches.
A soft whistle from Schickel is
sufficient to summon “Mike” when the
bird is within hearing distance. He
perches on the steward's finger and
allows himself to be petted by passen
gers. hut is rather reserved in accept
ing these overtures, pecking at any
hand which ruffles his shiny feathers.
Many offers have been made
Schickel for "Mike.” but he has re
fused them ill. and the canary contin
ues as chief unofficial entertainer
aboard the “America,”
