From the age of 10 to IS, about IS years, he
had suffered acutely ut times from that
dread disease, and at the date specified he
was permanently cured by St. Jacobs Oil.
In proof of this, he writes in 1886 that he
has had no recurrence of rheumatic pains
since his relief in 1881. Again in April,

The St Mary's was chaser Of slave
ships before the war, and was one OF tho
fastest sailing cruisers ever owned by
Uncle Sam. When she VI s mustered
out Of that service her spars were much
shortened and her sailing rig so altered
that she could be more easily handled.
She is still able to travel twelve knots an
hour under all canvas, and she is one of
the best rough-weather ships that ever
floated. commander A. 5. Crowninshield
is her commander w, and his officers are
Lieut.. w. l.. Field; Second Lieut. A. =.
Osborne, senior instructor and executive
officer; Third Lieut. James Sears, instruc-
tor in navigation and seamanship; and
Surge II y. b. Drake who instructs the
boys in grammar and history.
During the summer the st. Mary's
cruises in the Atlantic, and the boys have
lot Of chances to learn all about practical
seamanship and navigation. In the winter
she is laid up in the port of New York,
and the boys 90 to school in the neat little
schoolhorse on the spar deck, where they
are taught English grammar, geography,
history, mathematics and the theory of
navigation. School begins on Nov. l. and
the term ends April l6 of each year. The
examiners from the New York City board
of education spent pleasant three hours
recently find ng out how much the st.
Mary boys knew about these subjects.
They were well pleased with the amount
oflntelligence they found, and compliment
ed highly G .mmander Crowninshield and
his officers n the thoroughness Of their
instruction and the brightness of their
pupils

example OF the kind of men the COVER
ment provides to show New York BOYS
how to be good ssilormen, and it is no
wonder that the graduates OF the st.
Mary's are credit to her.
At sea the port and starboard watches
do regular duty, just as watches Of full
grown sailormen would. That, of course,
prevents them from keeping such regular
hours as they do in port, but they still
have plenty of time for sleep. work and
play.
IL believe in giving them all the work
they can do" says Commander Cr0wnin-
shield, ''but to do 1t well they must have
lots Of play and enough Sleep"
The boys soon learn how to handle q
ship, and they serve their tricks at the
wheel, stand watch, and make and mend
sails in shipshape order. After one years
instruction the boys are promoted t. be
petty officers. There are eight small
boats aboard besides the captains gig.
The coxswain of this craft Is one OF the
smartest lads aboard. Then there are two
captains for each of the other crews, who
are responsible for the order and main te-
nance of the boats. Two Dos ms mates are
chosen from the brightest boys, and they
are highest in authority aboard ship of all
those who are made petty officers. They
boss the captains of the crews, and at sea
they are captains of the foremost watch
and watch. In warm weather he boys
have swim every morning, unless there
are sharks around or they should happen
to find bad weather. In that case they
battle In the big bath-house on the spar
deck. Once week two boys are chosen
from each boats crew to do the cooking.
All but the petty officers do this work in
turn. The cooks draw ratlops for their
crews, cook them, and are responsible for
the mess gear.
In order to make sure Of being able 10
handle the ship in bad weather crew of
fourteen men before the mast is carried.
These do most of the work. and some of
them lend hand now and then and show

kinds of ropy mysteries. The school
books are put away at sea and the boys

TRAINING SAILORS.
Plenty of Hard Work for Boys Who
Want to Sail.
The Schoolship st. Mary's aud Her Jolly
Crew---The Coming Cruise

The Scholarship st. NIary's aud Her Jolly
Crew---The Coming Cruise.
Lying at the foot of Fast Thirty first
street in New York city Is the city school
ship St Mary's Small boys who wander
into that neighbour cd look longingly at
her trim spars and white decks and 60
home and beg leaVe to go to sea. Their
little heads are Tiled with pictures of the
strange sights seen by the blue acketed
youngsters, and the amb ton to be one Of
the tight-trousered crowd who go skip
ping through the tops has been enough to
make many boy leave home by stealth
and try to go aboard. Alas for their hopes!
Also alas for their ambition! No boy will
be taken aboard the ship who is not
brought there by his father or mother or
by his legal guardian. The St Mary's is
no place for truants. Any boy who wants
to sail in her must not only have the con-
sent of his guardians. He must be the
owner of good moral character in first
rate working order, otherwise he will new
er hearken to the orders OF Commander
Crowninshield or listen to the hearty vo CO
of Lieut.. Field.
Many years ago, when American ships
were not so scarce as they are nowadays,
the board of education of tn s seaport
town resolved TO teach boys how TO be
frst-class sailormen. 1t was one of the
best resolves that learned beard ever
made. The United States government
very kindly handed over to them the ship
St. Mary s, size being a 900-tonner and
carrying three skysail yards aloft and
having record OF sixteen knots an hour
with the wind two points free and every
thing drawing. Also the government de-
tailed commander, three lieutenants and
one surgeon from the national l. Wy to
look after the welfare of the boys and
train them up in the way goo sailors
should go. The city of New York has
ever since maintained the ship and her
crew, an the government has supplied
her with proper officers.
