Just before the President’s special | reached Indianapolis late in the fore- ] noon, Dr. Grayson, Mr. Wilson's per sonal physician, issued the following statement: “The President’s condition is about the same. He had a fairly restful night.” This was all the physician cared to add to his statement of last night in which he said Mr. Wilson’s indispose tiim was not alarming although a con siderable period of rest would be neces sary to his relief.

With delightfully cool weather pre vailing, featured ly a prize waltz, at tractive decorations, and a gratifying attendance, the floor being comfortably filled, the dance was a groat success in everv way: all of which reflects much credit upon the committee of ladies who arranged for the function. Miss i Elizabeth Hopkins was chairman of this ’j committee, and she had assisting her the following: Emma Engle, Meta . j Crutcliley. Hattie Stevens, Olivia Ly . I oils, and Emma Lynns. Music was fur , j nislied by a selec t orchestra of city , musicians. The prize waltz was won by Thomas Williams, with Miss Elizabeth Lewis as j his partner.

FROST TOUCHES MARKET Evidences Of Approach Of Cold ] Weather Seen In Local Market PLENTY OF VEGETABLES t Evidences of the approach of cold , weather were plentiful in the market , this morning in the quantities of sev- ( era) products that would be damaged ] l-y a touch of frost.

Of these these were offered plenty of green ones for pickling pur- ] poses, and quantities of them at the 1 . in-1 etween stage of ripening. The! fruit was of very good quality, anl , sold rapidly, housewives taking up the', green tomatoes first. ! ( Flowers were also in great ahund- ] mice, anti the varieties of many of i those put on sale were also the kinds j I that will not stand a great deal of cold. : Some of the brightest colors offered M were in the straw flowers, which were | quite plentiful. Green corn was scarcer than it has 1 een heretofore, 1 tit. strange to say, the price has not advanced as the sup ply decreased. Watermelons are sell ing as low as ten cents for the smaller ones, and only up to thirty for choice. However, the choice was not excep tionally good. Eggplant, cabbage, and other vegetables were quite plentiful. fcPWORTH LEAGUE TO OPEN FALL CAMPAIGN TOMORROW EVENING Sunday Evening Devotional Meeting Begins 7.15 With Song Service For Annapolis Young People.

TUK EVENING CAPITAL—ESTABLISHED 18M. PRICE ONE CENT DRIVE FOR HOSPITAL STARTS NEKT WEEK AND PLEDGES ASKED An Effort To Raise $25,000 For Annapolis Emergency Hospital For Maintenance A PERMANENT INCOME Having struggled along for years, and especially in the last few years when there was no help practically from State Aids and Charities for the local institution, the Annapolis Emergency Hospital, with the advice of represen tative citizens, has decided to adopt the ever " successful method of a ‘•drive” to raise funds for mnintc nance. Accordingly, next week will he “Hospital Drive Week” in Annapolis, when there will be inaugurated a house to house canvass for a permanent fund to carrv on the work of the hospital. The following open letter in behalf of the drive, is addressed all people in the city and county: Annapolis, Md. To the People of Annapolis and Anne Arundel County: In making an appeal to the good pen do of Anne Arundel enmity, in behalf of Mu- Emergency Hospital, we wish to make the following statement: The high cost of living, and tin* re duced appropriation of the State of Maryland to the hospital have greatly handicapped the managers of the hos pital during the last two years, and it now becomes necessary, to secure a per manent income for the hospital in order to insure its benefits to the people of the county. Local drives have resulted in the rais ing of over fifteen thousand dollars. Five thousand dollars were used in so suring nearly two acres of land around th<* building, which was needed for the future usefulness of the institution, for the ercetion of maternity and contag ious wards, and a nurses home. The other ten thousand has been used, and is being used to help pay the running expenses which have been greatly in creased during the war, for higher wages, and the greater cost of every thing used in a hospieal. The State has put the hospital on a per capita basis, instead of a lump appropriation, as in , former years. This also means a large reduction in the income. It is easily seen that spasmodic , drives arc necessarily very unsatiafac lory, and the Finance Committee is , | very anxious to have a permanent in ! come, and for that reason is starting (Continued on Pago Three.) ehr (Cirrlr lllatilumar. 3ttr.
