Some of the fun on the cruise is not
strictly regulation, as this incident
shows.

San Francisco. dared Judge Alfred j.

sea, to stoke in the boiler room. The

cartridge shows what the actual hitting
conditions would have been with. a full
charge at sea.
In the engineering division the men
start as coal passers and work up as
firemen and water tenders to machin-
lists. As said before. the steam filters
and boiler makers come mostly from
the Union iron works, where the Ore
gon and many other battleships have
been built
: The most encoura ging thing about
the work of the militia, a naval officer
has said. is the Willingness OF these
men to slave down in the tOrrid boiler
rooms for mere love of the service.
The furnaces. fed by men whose backs
are shining with sweat and begrimed
with coal dust, make always the most
picturesque sight on the ship.
Back in September. 1891. the naval
militia was organized by Captain
Bauer. who had been colonel of the
cadet corps at the state university
The first practice craft was the sailing
launch Mayfower. There was one COM
pany OF 100 men here, and another of
about the same size in San Diego In
: 1896 the navy department, in an ex-
perimental mood, turned over the CO.
manche. The Comanche was wild
Indian in more ways than one. She
had come around the Horn in sections
toward. the close of the civil war, and
was put together here as an ironcIad,
almost a duplicate of the original. his
toric Monitor.
In 1898 the Comanche belched her
last war whoop out of her smooth bore
guns, and yielded to the Marion
The Marion was the dodo OF the
Pacific fieet-a wooden frigate with a
muzzle loading battery and round shot.
But she could steam all around the bay,
and offered some practice.
1t was not until 1906 that the navy
department was moved by a proper
sense of shame to turn over COM
paratively modern ship in the Alert,
which had served as a training vessel
up to that time. She was rugged like
revenue cutter to give the old fash
ioned sea training. But her engines
were so weak that her patent log
sank like a sounding lead during the
blow off Conception during last years
cruise.
When the Marblehead was received
last April the Mare island officials
highly complimented Captain Bauer on
the condition of the Alert and her
equipment.
The Marblehead was built in 1894.
Three years later. with Emperor VIII
liam on the bridge, she was the first
American ship to pass through the Kiel
canal, which was then opened with
elaborate ceremonies. When the Span
ism war broke out she captured the
first prize in a Spanish merchant ship.
making the record speed of 21 knots
in the capture. At Guantanamo she
silenced the Spanish batteries. and be-
came one of the most talked of ships
in the navy.

guns. Instruction is given by Chief
Gunner Hilton. an old navynan-
The guns are equipped with up to
date sighting apparatus and tiny elec-
trio lights for night work.
WhHe the armor is light the Marble-
head would still be useful In scout
work, commerce destroying and in pro-
tecting landing parties at unfortifed
or poorly fortified points.
The navy militia is maintained partly
by the navy department and partly by
the state.
California furnishes 800 month for
such expenses as the armory to each
of the seven deck divisions and $500
month TO the engineers gang. IL
also allows s2.500 year for incidental
repairs and $4,000 for the summer
cruises. provisioning. etc.
Uncle Sam comes through yearly
with about $4,000 worth of coal-some
1000 tons-and furnishes the equip
ment-uniforms. rifles. revolvers. am
munition and the like. He also fur
nishes seven sailors, who live on ths
ship and act as watchmen and keep
things cleaned up.
1t is thus much cheaper for the gov
ernment to turn ship over to the state
than to lay 1t up. while the state
profits by its use

all must undergo at least once a month.
is largely with the boats, guns, man
overheard" and the like.
On the regular cruise professional
sea cooks are hired from the water
front and mess boys for the officers
quarters
The navy furnishes one OF It's own
officers for the cruise to preside at the
officers school Lieutenant Mcmillan
also regularly holds classes in navi-
cation aud theory.
In view OF the many divisions at the
various ports of the state. the ship Is
necessarily topheavy with officers. as
many of whom as possible take the
cruise for the instruction gained

cants through the regulation physical
tests and investigates the reputation of
each with view to keeping out unde-
sirables. The men elect their own di-
vision officers, who are allowed to take
their grades only on proving their fit
ness in examination. They are then
advanced regularly. Petty officers are
selected by the captain after strict
tests.
San Francisco is the only station in
the state having a ship. At the other
ports the men belong necessarily to
the deck force. Eureka has 80 men.
Santa Cruz 20, Santa Barbara 65 and
Los Angeles and San Diego 20 each.
San Francisco, which furnishes the
black gang, numbers 800. There are
80 men in the black gang, of whom 81
have the arduous job of coal passing.
At the other ports the men receive
their sea drill in a cutter. They learn
to sail, row, land through the surf and
other work of this kind, in which the
San Franciscans are perhaps less pro-
ficient.
Armory drill is alike in all. 1t in
cludes the ordinary infantry and field
artillery drill, with practice in signal
ing by all systems in use in the navy,
knotting and splicing.

be shown in an account of the recent
shake down" trip to Santa Cruz on
Memorial day.
The bluejackets came aboard, for the
most part, in the early evening, each
with his bag. But some had been on
for several DAYS, keeping company with
the more ambitious officers.
Before she was turned over to the
militia the Marblehead lay up two
years at Mare island. The yard Off
Gals were kind enough to put the en-
gines in working order and clean up
generally before the transfer was made,
but she was still unequipped in many
points. Captain George w. Bauer was
therefore forced to devote more time
TO the ship than to his own affairs in
hunting down the missing details. Chief
Engineer William Speck put in his
week ends and often week days to the
neglect of his own machine shop in
overhauling his department. He and
his assistant officers, Henry A. Leopold
and c. s. Hendry, got into dungarees and
did not rest until the intricate electrical
system was again in order, leaks
stopped in the pipes and the various
pumps, fans hoists and other things
beyond the understanding of laymen
were again in service.
II was the first night the men had
been on the ship, and many did not
know what to make of their tickets,
by which they were assigned their sta
tion, watch, mess, hammock number and
other odds and ends. Here was the
old sailormen's chance. There are in
San Francisco's complement 40 men who
have served an enlistment or more in
the regular navy. They furnish the
larger part Of the petty officers and
instruct the green men In their duties.
They show the recruit how to lash a
hammock and call down those who say

The Marblehead's bos'n, Mr.. Schnalle,
served for many years in the old navy,
and when he goes after the deck force
there are lively goings. It is he who
gets the anchor and boats up and has
the men out in bare feet at dawn to

At sea the naval militia follows the
same routine as on the regular man-o'-
war. The engines are always busy. At
night are the numerous watches. In the
day there are the drills, such as boat,
gun and fire drills Eagerness to learn
takes the place of the harsher forms
of discipline in this work. So while no
officer would think of making man
walk up and down with spit kid under
his nose for thoughtlessly- violating the
sanctity of the poop deck, there is
more effective way of getting at the
man who Intentionally misbehaves. He
can be denied the cruise.
