Newspaper Page Text14 THE 3IORXIXC OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, JULT 15. 191G. MARBLEHEAD SAILS WITH MILITIA TODAY Cruiser Is Coaled and Provi sioned for Its 3000-Mile Trip to Sitka and Back. LAWYERS SLEEP ABOARD Nearly 300 Are to Take Training on Cruise, but Jloutlne Will Be Varied by Shore Leave at Points Along Course. Bon voyage to the Oregon Naval Militia! They leave, nearly 300 strong, this morning for thsMr annual cruise aboard the cruiser Marblehead, with Sitka. Alaska, as their destination. It will be a hapy throng of civilian tars who assemble on the ship bright and early to make ready for the start. The cruiser, which is docked south of Hawthorne bridge, is scheduled to draw in her anchor and point her nose, down stream at 8 A. M., with nearly 3000 miles of water to cover before she again pulls up at her berth. It has been impossible to determine the number of men who are going, but estimates at headquarters place the number at about 300, including the 55 regulars aboard the ship and the 17 membe-s ol the lawyers' division. Everybody looks for a good trip, with mal de mer as the only part of the routine that will not be much enjoyed. Service Discipline to Be In Force. Everything will run along as though the ship was bound for actual service. Every man will have to do his turn at the ship's work and each will live ac cording to his rank, whether he be of the lawyers" division, the high school division or the regulars. Were the ship on the way to service in Mexico, Navy discipline could not be more strictly observed than it is to be on this trip. From the start the militiamen will have their part of the work to do side by side with the regulars. They will be a part of the black gang in the coal bunkers and the boiler and engine rooms, will stand on the watches, scrub down decks and be on duty in various other ways. And this will apply to the 17 lawyers as well as everybody else. They will be treated- as ordinary sea men. They will lose their identity as some of the city's leading attorneys. Lawyers Are Enthusiastic They are an enthusiastic crowd of lawyers. Most of them have had no experience with a warship and accord ingly have much to learn. They took their first lesson last night when they went aboard the ship and slept in the hammocks. Their idea was to got the run of this awkward part of their routine so their compatriot" on the trip would miss the usual laughs that go the rounds of the regulars when re cruits try their hand at the hammocks. The Marblehead will make Astoria today and remain there over night. To morrow morning she will put out to sea and head toward Puget Sound, making Port Angeles Monday morning. Here she will be joined by the battle ship Oregon with the California Naval Militia and the cruiser New Orleans With the Washington militia. Shore Leave to Be Granted.- On Tuesday the three ships will put out through the Straits and head north. The next stop will be Sitka. Alaska, where two days' shore leave will be granted the men. There was rejoicing all down the ranks yesterday when it was announced that the ehip has a full cargo of coal and that it will not be necessary to coal at Sitka as had been planned at first. This means more time on shore for the men. Sitka has arranged for a hearty wel come for the men of the three ships. They will anchor off shore and main tain landing boat service. It will be a big event for Sitka. Marblehead to Stop in Canada. Leaving Sitka the ships will follow back over the same course to Puget Sound, where the Oregon will continue on south to San Francisco and the New Orleans will go to Seattle. The Marblehead will go to Vancouver, B. C, to make a two days' stop, after which the return trip will be started, reach ing Portland on the afternoon of Aug ust 1. The men, in addition to ship's duty, will participate in gun drills and training of various kinds. This will continue during the entire cruise. The usual target practice in Puget Sound has been eliminated this year. The Marblehead has been put in fine condition. Before her recent arrival in Portland she underwent overhauling in the ravy-yard. While in Portland she has been painted and repaired. She Das been fully coaled and provisioned The list of those who will take the trip a members of the Naval Militia will not be available until rollcall at the ship this morning.

There the barge got loose and was saved by the Knickerbocker a second time from being wrecked on the beach It is alleged.
