ESPECIAL TO THE NEWS,

NEWPORT, Sept 22.-For the Srst time
since its organization the RHODE ISLAND
Naval Reserve is afoat and performing
sea duty.
1t was with considerable curiosity on
both sides that the reserves and regulars
met aboard the cruiser Philadelphia yes
terday, but the enthusiasm and vim with
which the Bristol boys went to work soon
won the respect Of the officers and men of
the war ship.
The reserves wore the regulation uni
form OF white duck and when mingling
with the crews OF the several guns they
could only be picked out by an exper-
fenced naval eye. and even then 1t was
the watch mark" on the shoulder that
told the difference.
tThe company from Bristol was in COM
mand OF Lieut.. Hodgkinson. with en-
signs Williams and Wilson. Theirs was
no time lost In preliminaries. and the
squad was quickly divided into three di-
visions. each taking alternate periods:
No. ], practical explanation and instruc-
ton in the use OF great guns; No 2, sec
ondary battery: No. g. powder division.
When dinner-call was sounded at 1880
the volunteers got an insight as to what
sailor can do In the way OF getting
away with grub, and at this the reserves
allowed for smoking the visitors were
made to feel perfectly at home SO that
when general quarters took place all fell
into position with the promptness Of
veterans.
From the powder monkey to the gun
captain all worked with will, especi-
ally when the big guns were being
used against the enemy and the ship was
fairly In action. All the evolutions per-
tanning TO an engagement were gone
through, training, loading, sighting, fir
ing. withdrawing charges, etc. aud so
we'll did the reserved do the work as TO
win many compliments from the officers
OF the big ship.
The days work was concluded with a
ramble over the vessel, when everything
OF interest was noted and explained. The
members OF the reserve showing marked
Intelligent interest In the instructions
given both above and below decks
The three divisions were in charge of
line officers as follows Great guns, Lieut.
Hosley, assisted by Cadet Gross powder
division, Lieut.. Fremont, assisted by En-
signs Zeignier and Bortwick secondary

This morning the Philadelphia got up
anchor aud with the reserve aboard, went
outside for target practice with heavy
guns. !.
Tomorrow the day will be devot ed to
