The institution took place in Martin hall,

Quoted by Deputy Supreme Knight Of

About 100 visitors arrived in the city

in the navy because he has failed to make
living on land and who Is content with
little money and regular rations. This Is
not always the case, for Jack is often ex-
ceedingly practical He Is in the navy
Just as men 20 into other trades, and in
many instances he carries ashore more
money after q three years term Of service
than the average day laboring landsman
aocumulates IN the course of a lifetime.
There are many methods Of making
money aboard ship. Just now, Of course,
the quickest and easiest is that Of taking
prizes, for every man Jack Of the crew has
a share In whatever prizes are captured by
his ship. The prize money Is also distrib-
uted among the crews of all warships in
sight at the time Of capture. In such in
stances as that of the capture of the Span
ish liner Ca alma by the Detroit the sum
which each man will receive will be tidy
little addition to tho credit side of his &C.
count on the purser's books, us the steam
or and cargo were worth nearly $4,000
and the Detroit made the capture single
handed.
But, leaving prize money out of the
question, the industrious Jack Tar can add
to his wages in many ways. Tho mess cook
who prepares all the dishes from the COM
only $50 or s22 month from the govern
ment, makes enough extra to moro than
double his pay. Many of these men de-
velop into surprisingly good cooks and as
such are eagerly sought after by the "ca-
terers" of messos. They can easily save
three fourths of their salary and in hun
dreds of cases are paid off at the end of
three years with more than $1,000, a show
| ing which is not often made by men of
! their standing I'm civil life.
The natty uniform in which Jack ap-
| pears on shore Is never from the stock OF
| the paymaster on board ship. Ready made
uniforms arc served out TO those who de-
sire them, but they are rather i'll fitting
| affairs, and after a man has passed the re-
cruit stage and begins to "draw his pay"
he invariably has his clothes made by one
of the innumerable tailors on his vessel.
On almost every vessel there are from
| six to a dozen men who in leisure mo.
ments ply their trades, and 1t Is well
known fact that not even the best talors
ashore can give to bluejacket suit that
swing and flow that are characteristic Of q

These tailors are the most prosperous oi

$50 per month to their wages. Many ol
these men have been known to leave &

with from 81 800 to 81 800 clear money.
Another lucrative business which II
sometimes, but not always, added to thai

of the clothing served out by the govern
J ment, the ready made caps are but poo

Up-New York Has the Largest Institu-
tion of the Kind.
For the men -of-wnr's men who are dis
abled in naval engagements there have
been provided five hospitals, where tho
damage done by shot and shell may be
repaired under the most favorable oondi-
tions At Pensacola there Is a rather
small one, at Norfolk there is one Of good
size, In Brooklyn there Is the largest,
while at Boston and Portsmouth there are
also naval hospitals.
The New York Naval hospital, which
is situated Just outside the Brooklyn navy
yard, has recently been enlarged by the
addition of q new wing which doubles its
capacity and makes it one Of the most
complete institutions Of the kind In the
world.
The buildings have been in use for a
naval hospital for 30 years or more, and
the entire plant, without tho land, is csti-
mated TO be worth at least $500, 900. The
hospital grounds used to be part of the
navy yard, but were separated from the
yard when the government sold to Brook.

Medical Director Woods, who is in
charge with tho rank of captain, entered
