The of this sketch, whose | portrait appears on this page, is the son lof A. J. Cruse, who operates an exten. subject sive cigar manufactory at this place. Being born Jan. 4th, 1872, he is now in his 18th year. His early education was obtained in the Bellefonte schools and was a member of the graduating class | of "59 of the High school.

The Academy, as [ suppose you know, is to truin 2 men for positions as officers in the Navy. There are two branches of study, one for the line an the other for the engineer corps. The course of study includes a complete course in mathematics, English, French. mve a few minutes at sn Spanish, German, physics and chemistry, It is not what you might call dim but the cadets are marked so very clos that it is a hard matter to get through The irtillery, seamanship, gunnery, ! steam tactics, with launches. yang Dun second and fourth wt1le Cuis, Aorny drills consist of in. the first summers a' the take their pmetice cruise on the U. 8. 8. “Constellition The “Constellation with a battery of imders and four gatlings. ern'ly cruises in Long Island herr the cadets are instructed in the management of a vessel under all conditions, This vessel, however, will soon be discarded and a new steel cruis. {er put in her place.

The first year at the Academy is con. sidered the hardest, for the 4th class man, or “pleb,” has many things to contend with. In the first place, he isa stranger in the place and is what you may call very green; secondly the man- ner of reciting ts different from an other college, and last, but not leasts comes “hazing.” A “pled” is hazed by everybody, but principally by the 8rd classmen, He is made to eat soap, drink ink, stand on his head, and many other things too numerous to mention. The authorities think they have about broken up the practice, but the upper classmen continue to make it miserable for the “plebs.” “Hazing,” I can as sure you, Is a very dangerous pastime should the authorities eatch one violat ing their rules, We are about half way to Fort Mon- roe with very little prospects for getting there in time to start home again.
