DIiNV IIIAT MANY FAILED
Said At A4admiv There Is No Truth In
Report That Unusual Percentage Of
Candidates bailed
Through dispatches, supposed to
emanate from Washington, a useless
scare has been given the 280 candi
dates for admission to the Naval
Academy as midshipmen who took the
examination that closed on Saturday,
according to information got at the
Academy this morning
The statements that the percentage
of failures in the examination was
unusualy large and that it would be
necessary to lower the passing mark
to get enough youths into the institu
tion was said to be absolutely untrue
! The farther announcement was made
that the list of successful candidates
would probably be posted about Wed
nesday of this week.

‘ HICKS FOR JULY
A Severe Drought Promised For
Middle Of July
, THE CELESTIAL FIREWORKS
L Promised For The (ilorious Fourth
And Other Things
If those persons who are disposed to
grumble and kick at the rainy season
, we have been experiencing would
! i only know it, perhaps they would be
, a little chary in pouring out their
I vials of wrath at such quality.
Prophet Hicks winds up his pro-
I nunciaraento for August with the
heart-chilling statement that another
severe drought will begin about the
middle of July and extend through
August into September. He color**
his orediction that we shall very
i probably see some ‘‘celestial fire
works” on and touching the ‘‘Glorious
Fourth.” So here’s your chance; you
needn’t spend one penny in ‘‘spit
devils,” racers or skyrockets, when
you can have made to order and view
the same from your fro Tit door stoop
of the back yard, or any other perch
about your domicile.
There’ll he no chance to run, eith- '
er, from burnt figures and the boogy- j
Loo of lockjaw following in its wake.
Seer Hicks starts right off the reel
with one of those ‘‘reguar storm per- j
iods,” which he says will extend from
the 2nd to the 7th. This storm will
begin with a decided rise of the tem
perature and a fall of the barometer
in the Western states.
It will move eastward and will hit
us with what he calls a warm wave
on the 4th, sth and Cth, which will
have as its attendants ‘vicious storms
of thunder, wind, rain and possibly
hail and local tornadoes.” The seer
takes in some territory in his prog
nostications, for he says the antipodal
regions south of the equator will be
under great seismic strain at this
time, especially about the Gth and
sth,and something liable to go wrong.
As a salve to this, Rev. Hicks says
we shall have a higher barometer
followed by cooler weather.
REASSESSMENT TIED UP
Failure Of Primer To Furnish Necessary
Blank** Is Handicapping The Boards
Of Control
Through the failure of the Baugh
man Publishing Company, of Freder
ick, to which the contract for print
ing was let by Col. Buchanan Schley,
the proposed revaluation and reas- i
sessnient of property provided by the
last Legislature has been halted.
A number of necessary blanks to j
be mailed to and Allied out by proper
ty owners are provided for by the re- ;
assessment. The Anne Arundel ;
Board of Assessors has gone as far as
it can in its work without these now
very necessary blanks, and it is un- j
derstood that the same condition pre
vails in every county in the State.
Pending their receipt by the County
Commissioners for distribution
through the Board of Control and Re
view of the assessment, little if any
further progress can be made in the
revaluation and reassessment which
was designed to increase niatcrialy
the income of the State
MATRIMONIAL AGENCY?
Telephone Exchange Has Kisal In
Departmeut Store
Once upon a time, and it was not
long ago, either, the local telephone
exchange was a typical matrimonial
agency It was a sure thing that
cupid hovered close to the wires, and
certain it was that all the girls (or
five or six) of them at the exchange
were married within as many months.
But the Telephone Exchange has been
beaten all hollow by a Main street
department store, which has gained
the reputation of being a first-class
matrimonial agency. Girl after girl
who seeks a position there gets mar
ried shortly after and there have been
two elopements in which girls filling
positions at this store have figured in
the last two or three weeks.
The firm constantly has an adver
tisement for young ladies to fill the
position of the one who got married,
and each succeeding applicant goes
and does likewise.

OUR OWN MIDSHIPMEN
Capture The English Metropolis
And Make A Big Hit In City
Of London
AN UPROARIOUS WELCOME
Accorded Middies On Riacficr Cruise
Their Smarlaet-8 Attracts l.ondcners
The British metropolis surrendered
itself utterly to the 525 midshipmen
from the United States Naval Acad
emy who invaded the city of London
Saturday afternoon bv two special
trains from Plymouth, where the
three American battleships, the lowa,
the Indiana and the Massachusetts,
carrying them on a summer practice
cruise, will lie at anchor until next
Thursday.
Looking trim in their blue uniforms
they received a noisy welcome as they
tumbled out of the trains at Pad
dington station, and during the even
ing they were cheered in the street
by Americans and Englishmen alike.
Squads who visited the theaters j
and music hall's were constantly bail
ed with an uproarious welcome.
Each naval cadet has been consti
tuted an officer commanding himself.
He is at liberty to see the sights of
the big city as he chooses. The
only injunction which has been laid
npon the youngsters who will become
some day officers in the United States
fleet is that they report promptly at
noon yesterday at the railway station.
Special trains carried them back
to the warships.
Their smart appearance has at
tracted considerable attention. Lon
doners expected to find them clad in
the regular garb of enlisted men.
Consequently they rubbed their eyes
when they saw them in unforms not
unlike those worn by retired British
soldiers and sailors who serve as com
missionaires in London, excepting the
rows of medals usually decorating the !
latter.
The hotels are jammed with the
“middies,” who will tour the city as
they see fit. No formal program has
been arranged for them. The Amer
ican Society in London and other
organizations sought permission to ' t
entertain them, but Captain in com- |
maud of the cruising squadron felt it J
necessary to decline all such invita
tions and to allow the boys to spend j
their time in their own way
While the midshipmen are enjoying *
shore leave approximately one hun
dred bluejackets from various ships I
are also having a good time here.
They have been taken in tow by Brit- ’
ish sailors. Practically all are quar
tered at the Union Jack Club and the
Shore Club. The “hands across the
sea” sentiment has been clinched
more firmly than ever by mutual
good fellowship.
Down at Plymouth Friday, while
the battleships were coaling in the
inner harbor, Captain Clark, attended j
by his aid, made a formal call on the
Mayor of that city. The latter point
ed out to his visitors the original
paintings of Drake and Hawkins.
The Mayor will return the visit to
day.
Paymaster Spear is buy. He drew
$75,000 from a local bank for the
expenses of the midsiipmen and blue
jackets. They have made themselves
popular there by free expenditures of
money prior to their London inva
sion. Practically every man ordered
new civilian clothes, the battleships
having been visited by a host of
tailors with their samples.
Midshipman G. A. Smith, of Chi
cago, who was removed to Plymouth
Naval Hospital, suffering from ty
phoid fever, is making good progress
though he may not be able to leave
with his ship.
The Baltimore Sunday Sun had the
following news item, copyrighted by
the New York Herald Company and
special to the Baltimore Sun:
“London, June 25.—The 525 mid
shipmen of the United States Naval
Academy, on their summer cruise,
have learneef why London has contrib
uted to mankind the sartorial fashion
of turning up one’s trousers.
“To a man they proposed today that
hip boots should properly be adopted
by Londoners as more practicable, for
torrential downpours of rain almost
continuously swept the city and inter
ferred greatly with the sight-seeing
trips which had been planned.
“Every moment of their visit has
been cherished as most precious, for
tomorrow at noon all must return to
Plymouth and the cruising fleet, com
posed of three battleships, the lowa,
the Indiana and the Massachusetts.
The warships will not weigh anchor
until Thursday, however.
“From early morning until late at
night the midshipmen defied the rain,
frequently to the detriment of their
trim blue uniforms. Many visited
the Tower of London. Some went to
Westminster Abbey and the houses of
Parliament. The lighter minded
sought the shelter of theatrical mati
nees.
‘On every hand they received warm
greetings. Many of the ‘middies’
caught their first glimpses of British
! soldiers on leave from Aldershot.
The gaudiness of the uniforms of
| j Great Britain’s fighting men, it was
laughingly decided, is necessary to
keep up their loyalty in face of a su
. perfluity of genuine English weather.
t “Many of the visitors were permit
* it 1 pivate inspections of old triple
’ , mouth cannons captured by the Brit
| ish at Crecy and their battles in the
: fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. ’
The Evening Capital—Established 1884.
A New York Times cable from
London says:
“The leading West End hotels and
restaurants have been the scene of
many reunions, as a number of the
young officers' parents have come to
London specially to welcome them.
Among these are Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Carroll, whose son brought up a score
of his comrades to the Ritz Hotel for
his parents to i*ntertain during the
week end.
“The squadron leaves Plymouth on
June HO, stopping on its homeward
voyage at Gibraltar, Madeira and the
Azores
“Commander Simpson, the Naval
Attache of the American Embassy,has
had his hands full arranging matters
so that the cadets can make the best
use of their time here, and it is only
fair to say that it was largely
through his efforts that they were al
lowed to come' to London at all, as
the original arrangement was to have
them stay at Plymouth all the time
“The United States middies left
Paddington station at noon yesterday
on two special trains A great crowd
was present to wish the good-bye, in
cluding John Burns, who was loudly
cheered by the cadets
“Mr Burns chatted with many of
them and was surrounded by admiring
groups. As the trains departed the
boys cheered and sang. Mr. Burns
said: ‘The boys are a fine-looking lot.
No one could wish for a healthier or
a cleaner-loiking set. They interest- !
ed me immensely.’ ”

ANOTHER CANDIDATE WEDS
Mired Bruce Of Texas Marri *s Mbs
Leona Meade
A wedding that came as a surprise
to her family and many friends was
• solemnized last evening with Miss
Leona Meade, daughter of Mrs. A. M
Meade, of this eity (formerly of l‘hil
add phi a) the bride, and Mr. Alfred
Bruce, of Chilgress. Texas, us the
groom.
Mr Bruce was a candidate for the
Naval Academy, and the young couple
have an acquaintanceship extending
over a period of about five or six
weeks. The young lady is an attrac
tive brunette and has a large circle of
young friends and admirers.
oung Bruce is the second candidate
for the Naval Academy to wed An
napolis girls in the last few weeks.
Another candidate, Mr. James Mooie
Sanders, of Fitzgerald, (la., was
married to Miss Henrietta Norman
Franklin, of this city, on June 1 It, by
the Rev. Hr. Neeley, of Baltimore.
It is not an unusual thing for at
least one or two of the many candi

comehere each year to get married and
thus change the course of their on
reer. The marriage license was is
sued at Towson, Baltimore county,
on Saturday, and the wedding took
place there yesterday evening
The marriage of Mr Bruce precludes
all possibility of his entrance to the
