favorable In general, inter
mingled with squall occasionally
but those are of short duration
and do not obstruct our course
Our officers are we'll able to take
care of the ship and crew, nc
matter what storms may arise; our
captain, first and second lieutenants
take their observations regularly
each day, altho the ship isn't
worked by solar observations. lati-
tude, etc. We, as sailors, would
call it dead reckoning.
Our pace is slow, but some day
we will reach the port of our des-
tination. It is a foreign port
called Liberty, and for some it is
a hard port to make. But we live
in hopes of reaching it some day.
It seems now as if this old tub of
ship is creeping along like a
snail going backward.
This ship is not like the ones l
am used to, altho great many
things are similar. For instance,
the observations and the bell that
calls us on deck-but not to shorten
sail-since [ have been here I've
not seen anything to shorten sails
with. There are no buntlines, no
clewlines, no leachlines, no hal
yards to let go by the run, no
downhawls nor anything of the
kind. It is all steam. She is run
by steam entirely, and that puts me
a little out Of the way sometimes.
But I have learned one thing since
/ have been on board-to get
around pretty lively when the bell
rings.
Our first lieutenant is a pretty
good man, but he won't stand any
nonsense. [ am saying this for
the good of my new shipmates who
may sign articles and come on
board during our trip. Just get
along lively; don't put on too many
airs and you will be all right;
because he doesn't like a man that
shirks his duty or one that i'm
AGNES be owns the ship. So just
80 along easy, mind your own
business (that will keep your mind
occupied) and everything will be
we'll. When you see a squall
coming shorten sail and heave to
ishut your mouth and it will soon
pass over.
We do not get months pay in
advance the same as on other ships
because the storekeeper who is on
board is an accommodating man
who furnishes you with everything
necessary for the trip. Clothing,
bedding, soap, needles, thread,
tobacco, knife, fork, spoon, in fact
every little thing a sailor needs is
read as soon as he steps on board.
She is good sea boat and very
comfortable in many respects. She
has caught fire but once, and
sprung leak but once in twelve
years. [ don't think you need be
afraid of being called out too often.
There is another thing that !
wish to tell you: Beware Of the
marines that are on guard. You
can see them walking around the
taffrail, and they have strict orders
to shoot any man that tries to
desert the ship.
Instead of striking two bells a,
9 o'clock they strike three; so dom,
make a mistake, and always be
ready to watch below or watch on
deck. For it is watch and watch
you watch the boatswain and the
boatswain will watch you AND
now my friends, it is my watch
below and I am going to turn in
for a short time. If there is any
alteration in the weather give me
a call, but [ am afraid this weather
will continue for a good while yet

 Not many days ago the police raided m opium joint. and one of those ar rested was young woman who was a member of an excellent family. She occupied a bunk and was stupid from the fumes of the pipe she had been smoking. That girl hut a few years ago had visited Chinatown for the first time with summing party.

Progress. of American Navy.

The American navy has undergone a remarkable transformation in the last generation. The new navy" hnd its beginning in 1SS2, when on Feb. of that year Secretary Hunt submitted to congress the minority report of the nd- visory board appointed on June 2o. 1881, upon the condition of the navy and the plans for building steel aud iron vessels of modern type. Since Ftho war with Spain the navy has risen by leaps and bounds and has actually been quadrupled fin the last four years. No such progress has been achieved by any other navy. In fact the ad- vance made by other big naval powers sinks into insignificance beside the stupendous development in the United States. In 1880 the appropriations amounted to about s12.0o0, GOO. In 1887 they were about S1h,o0o,0o0, and it had not passed much beyond S2o,oo0.- GOO when in 1898 came the war with Spain. The present congress is asked for about S1o0.0oo.0oo for the navy. but large proportion of this amount Is asked for the construction of new vessels and the continuance of work OR those under construction.-New York Tribune.
