A SCHOOL ON SHIP.
A Good Plan for n Preparatory Course for
Naval Officers.

Good Plan for n Preparatory Course for
Naval Officers.
Lieutenant Charles II. Harlow, one
of the brightest officers in the Amerl-
can navy, who was special commission
er to Chile and Bolivia for the WOrlds S
Columbian Exposition and has spent
good part of his term of service as
instructor at the naval academy and
on the scholarships Alliance and Essex,
has developed novel scheme for the
education of boys and their preparation
for the United States naval or military
academies and other institutions Of
learning, and at the same time to give
them il broad experience and knowl-
edge of the world and its affairs which
can be acquired only by extensive and
intelligent travel.
He proposes to equip a steel vessel of
1000 tons with both steam and sail
power and every comfort, convenience
and improvement known to modern
shipbuilding, and make it a cruising
school with a chaplain, a surgeon, who
will be specialist in physical culture,
and corps of instructors in the va
rious branches of learning. A complete
course will cover n period Of four years
and include visit to every country in
the world. A new class will be entered
each September; the term will extend
from Septemer 18th to June 10Th, dur
ing which time there will be instruc-
ton of some sort every day. The
cruises will be so arranged that the
ship will avoid stormy regions and be
in perpetual sunny weather.
While in port the cadets will VISIT
all places of interest in charge Of the
professors, and each country and place
will be the subject of study and lee
lures in addition to the regular course
of study, which will be similar to those
followed in the high schools and pre-
paratory schools of the country. The
cadets will be organized similarly to
those at the naval academy. with the
same discipline and drill. They will be
commanded by former officers of the
navy, and while they will not be called
upon to perform the manual labor of
sailors they will be drilled in seaman
ship, taught the science of navigation,
electricity steam engineering and so
forth. The cadet officers will he chos-
en- according to merit, as at West Point
and napolis.-Chicago Record.
