The plan of the Nayy Depart- ment fs for the local sailor boys: to embark on the Prairie the morning of July 3 at Piney Point for a cruise of seven days. The U. 8. S. Fern, the training ship of the District of Columbia, will, be used to convey the battalion to the point desig- nated and return, when the cruise is at an end. The District of Columbia will bear the expense of the subsistence of the organiza- tion while aboard the Prairie, and see that members are properly supplied with bedding and mess outt The work of arranging for the comfurt of the men dur- ing the outing will be attended to by the paymaster and his assistants of the local organization. The work of instructing the men in man- of-war routine duties, drilling, subcaliber practice, including target practice, and fir ing with the big guns, will comprise the most important features of the cruise.

Moy Jim Arrested and Gives Bond for Appearance. Moy Jim, a Chinaman, who lives at 110 4144 street northwest, was arrested this morning by Policy Detective Watson and locked up at the second precinct station, charged with a violation of the law. Only a few days ago another Chinaman was ar- rested as an alleged lottery runner and he was permitted to forfeit a small amount of collateral. In the case of Moy Jim the de- teotive will insist on a trial of the case. For several days the officer has been making an investigation, and this morning he met the celestial just after the latter had visited a laundry near 4th and I streets northwest. Moy Jim expressed surprise when the officer placed him under arrest and he was further surprised when a num- ber of alleged lottery tickets were taken from the folds of his loose coat. He said they were merely almanac tickets, but Christian Chinamen who are assisting the officer declare they are lottery tickets. Soon after the arrest was made a number of the prisoner's fellow countrymen called on him and bond for his appearance in court was given. It is claimed by the police that a Chinese. lottery drawing is conducted he improved Eu “ netheda of it rvousness, Iusomnia, Derangement of the Liver, None * Diocese a well-kept_nine-hole SURE RESORT.
