ary for the summer cruises of the naval
militia organizations Of the states border
ing on the great likes. All Of these are
to be made on the old gunboat Michigan.
She is ordered to- ,be at Cleveland, such
other Ohio port, aas the governor of Ohio
may elect on June - to instruct the Ohio
naval militia for a period of seven days.
She is to be at Detroit July g. to instruct
the Michigan naval militia for the, same
period of time. and she is to be at Chicago
on July 25 to instruct the Illinois naval mill
Altogether the Michigan is to be devoted
to this service from June % to July 81.
This year the ship will be under the COM
mand of Lieutenant Commander William
Winder, who was last year the executive
officer. He has been instructed to commun-
icate directly with the adjutants general of
the states named in- sufficient time to COM
plete all necessary arrangements. AS the
lack of accommoda la tons on the Michigan
precludes possibility of extended cruis-
ing, 1t is expected that the commanding Of
ficer will arrange for such day work on
board the ship under way as will give the
crews the greatest amount of practical in
struction in man-o'war routine, and in tar
get practice. When actually aboard ship.
the organizations will provide for their own
subsistence. The commander of the Mich
igan has been authorized to eXpend for each
state organization. fifty rounds for each six
FOUNDER and one-pounder gun on board and
gatling ammunition his discretion.
1t is expected that the Yantic will be used
in connection with the Michigan for the
drill of the Michigan Naval Militia. It IS
also intended to land a portion of the regu-
lar crew of the Michigan at Fort Wayne
barracks. and embark equal number of
the naval miitiamen for seven-day cruise.
The Prairie on the Ocean.
The cruiser Prairie. which is to be used
for the instruction Of the naval militia of
the states bordering on the Atlantic and
gulf is in dry dock at the New York navy
yard. having her hull scraped and painted.
The work is being done in great haste as
the vessel is scheduled to sail for New
Orleans on the 14th instant. The Prairie
will take aboard the naval militia of Lout-
siana at New Orleans and give them sea
practice and drill at the guns, and will
pursue a similar course with the militia of
the other states in the gulf and along the
Atlantic coast. The Prairie has Just re-
turned from a cruise to Reuen, where she
discharged some government exhibits for
the Paris exposition. 1t is understood that
Commander Swift is to succeed Commander
Mackenzie in command of the Prairie.
