MAY MAKE ROOM
FOR MaLfTIAAT
NAVAL station

Permanent quarters for the naval
militia have not been secured. The
Queens bungalow and the Alakea
st. wharf have both been mentioned.
The bungalow is desirable because
of its proximity to the palace
grounds where there is sufficient
rooom for drilling, the armory being
already inadequate for the needs OF
the National Guard let alone the new
naval militia; and the wharf would
be handy to the waterfront where
the small boats of the organization
will have to be kept as soon as they
are received.
1t is now possible that quarters
may be secured in the naval station.
Fer some time the army has occupied
large part of the naval station
grounds to house its supplies, and
authority is expected officially turning
over to the war department part OF the
station. The remainder is OF little
practical use to the navy with the
completion of the Pearl Harbor
station, and Admiral Boush is in favor
of letting the naval militia establish
its quarters there. AS soon as the
u. S. S. Nayajo's guns are removed
from the Navajo's wharf, one sor more
pieces will be mounted at the: naval
station exclusively for the instruction
and training of the naval militia.
Tuesday evening the men interested
in the engineers division will listen
to a lecture and practical Illustrations
by ]. Z. Sheedy, superintendent OF the
Inter-Island Steam Navigation Com
pany, and member of the Naval
Militia Commission. The deck force
will continue work in knots and
spices. Both divisions will combine
for infantry drill II.
