NAVY PIECES MAKE FI I FLY IN BOXING ARENA Semi-Final Bouts Staged Last Night Brought Out Good Material ALLEN CLEVER WITH MITS The new Plebe Haas at the United States Naval Academy haw gone Into Inter-college Loxing whole-hearted and the manly art of self-defense is being supported by the midshipmen and officers with great enthusiasm. The aeml-flnalß of the Plebe class boxing championship was staged last night in the huge gymnasium and a number of splendid bouts resulted. One of the best contests of the eve ning was between Midshipman Wil liam U. Allen of the Second Battal ion and Midshipman K. I*. Howard of tit Fourth Battalion. Allen gained the decision after three rounds of inter esting milling. This lad Allen is on< of the cleverest boxers that lias been seen at the Academy in recent years and he surely is going to make some of lust year's luittmen step to hold their place on the Navy Boxing Team. Another good bout was betwoen Midshipman It. C. Collins, represent ing the First Battalion and Midship man O. L. Llvdahl of the Third Bat talion. It was one of those nlp-and tuek affairs that kept the fans on their toes all during the battle, and It was not until after un extra round had been fought that the Judges could agroe on the winner. Collins won only because he forced the contest. A big surprise was sprung when Midshipman C. G. McMullan of the Third Battalion lowered the colors of Midshipman J. W. Brown, Captain of the First Battalion glove-pushers. Both lsixers were given a big send off when they entered Hie ropod squnre by their supporters. This bout was voted ns the lest held this summer between midshipmen.

Crops and pastures con tinue in good to excellent condition generally, except in Allegany county, where they still suffer from lack of rain. Corn continues in excellent condi tion, and is earing well. Digging of early potatoes is general over the entire section, but nearing completion in the extreme southern counties of the Eastern Shore. Late potatoes are coming up nicely. Colored Preacher Dead Rev.

Judge Moss now writes me that from physicians certificates which have been submitted to him, he is of opinion that confinement for the full time might, or most likely would, prove injurious to Howe, and that had he passed sentence in July instead of November he would not have impos ed such a lengthy term. Judge Moss, therefore, recommends such remission of such part of the jail sentence, as the Governor may deem proper. SAMUEL W. BROOKS & CO.j (HAS.
