Eveiything was done to make the

fully embossed in an elk’s head above
s
the face of a clock, the hands of which
point to eleven. The frontispiece is an
exterior view of the Elks* Home. The
volume contains a number of intetesting
sketches of Annapolis, handsomely illus
trated. It also contains the roster of the
local loyige and pictures of the leading
officers and members. The souvenir
volume is a credit to the local lodge
and the event it celebrates.

Dr. Wash. G. Tuck
Chairman of the Reception Committee
The volume was distributed to the tx
cursionists, who were in charge of a com
mittee, of which Thomas F. McNulty is
chairman. It was solely and exclusively
for the members of the Grand Lodge.
Elks who are not members of the Grand
Lodge were not invited. The reason for
this is that today was practically the only
opportunity the members of the Grand
Lodge had to enjoy themselves duiing
the reunion, as they will be kept hard at
work attending business sessions in Ford’s
Opera House, Baltimore. Moreover, the
Latrobe would not accommodate any
more than the Grand Lodge members.
The Latrobe returned to Baltimore in
time to see the* illumination from the bay,

: Leo XIII Passes Away.
A LONG LIFE ENDED
(Special dispatch to Evening Capital.!
Baltimore, Md., July 20. —A
cable to the Associated Press
says the Pope is dead, llis
Holiness Leo _ XIII, passed
quietly away at 4.04, Home
time, today. The* end came
peacefully, and the Pontiff
was conscious at Intervals un
til the dissolution came. Death
was expected since last night
at 6 o’clock, lie called his
attendants and bade them a
last fureufell. It is thought
death was duo to blood poi
soning as a result of derange
ment of the kidneys.
Immediately on receipt of
the telegram at the Capital
office a messenger was dis
patched to Father Rector at
St. Mary's Church and the
church bells tolled the solemn
death knell.
GOVERNMENT VISITORS.
Inspect The Naval Academy-
A party of Government official* from
Washington with several Baltimoreans,
enjoyed a trip to the Naval Academy
Saturday afternoon on Mr. W. H. Evans'
steam yacht.
The visitors were met at Camden Sta
tion by the Baltimoreans and the party
left Baltimore, from foot of York street at
2,30 o'clock.
When the yacht was off the Naval
Academy a salute was fired. After the
party had been brought ashore on the
Standish they were met by Commander
Badger, of the Academy. The party
made a thorough investigation of the
buildings that are being erected.
Supper was served in the evening on
the yacht and Batti nore was reached
about 9.30 o’clock. Thoie who made
the trip were:
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury H.
A. Taylor.
Supervising Architect of ihe Treasury
James Knox Taylor.
Col. J. P. Lowe.
Mr. J. A. Sutherland.
Mr. J. A. Whitmore.
Mr. J. E. Powell.

Emergency Hospital Case.
The outcome of the Emergency Hospi
tal case, which is expected to come up
for heating on bill of complaint and an
swer next Thursday, is being awaited
with eager interest. The very existence
of the hospital is believed to be at stake
and the city city is, therefore, vitally in
terested in the result. There are (many
phases of the controversy, but the point
directly at issue in the litigation is as to
whether or not the board of managers
has the sole power to dismiss a superin
tend- nt appointed by it and to control
the affairs of the hospital pending the ap
pointment and confirmation of a succes
sor. The element of personality has been
elimira'rd from the law suit and the case
w4i probably be decided on legal points
alone.

tion at the Court House door the valua

I Slim PRIMARIES, i
' Wells -Bannon Faction Won
In All Districts—The
. County Slate.
Democratic primaries were held in this
county Saturday to elect delegates to the
county convention, which Is to be held
in this citv July 28. The returns show
that the Y\ ells-Hannon forces will con
trol the convention, which will make
nominations lor all the county offices and
also elect delegates to the State conven
tion.
The principal contests were in the First,
Fourth and Fifth districts, between the
State administration forces, under Elijah
Williams and Kaac Nuiwell on the one
side and the YVrlls-Hannon combination
on the other. The latter were successful
in each ot these districts, as well as in
the second and Sixth (Annipolis), where
there was no contest.
In the First district, Mr. Samuel B.
Hardy won his tight against Mr. Gallo
way Cheston by ihe election ot drlrg.ites
favorable to his nomination for Sheriff.
His majority was 43 votes. The result
in this district is also favorable to the
nomination ot W. T. Jones for County
Commission! r, as against Mr. Wayson,
the incumbent.
Mr. Janies P. Bannon carried the
Fourth district by 10 votes. In the Fifth
district the Wells-Banoon forces, under
Mr. Peter Potee, carried two out ot the
three precincts, their total majority being
137 votes. Curtis Bay gave 166 majority
and Brooklyn 22. Harman's gave $1
majority for the administration forces.
In Annapolis the election of delegates
was by acclamation. The following were
chosen : James R. Hrashiers, John M.
Davis, William E. HDckburn, John R.
Sullivan and George Wells.
In the Third and Eighth districts Dr.
Williams and Mr. Nutwell were success
ful.
The only contest likely to be made will
be over the nomination tor Sheriff. The
strongest aspirants now seem to be Sam
uel B. Hardy and Enoch Downs. Mr.
Hardy will be backed by the delegation
from his district and has other sources of
strength. It is practically settled that
Edward C. Gantt will be nominated tor
the Senate and Janies W. Owens for
Slate’s Attorney. For Clerk ot the Cir
cuit Louit Dr. Geoige Wells, the incum
bent, will be nomtn ted. The nominees
for the House of Delegates have not
been finally decided upon.
