PRESIDENT PASSED i
A RESTFUL NIGHT!
(Itv Die Associated Press.)
On board President. Wilson's sjiecial
train, Sept. -7. — President Wilson, re- |
turning to Washington in a state of
nervous exhaustion from bis interrupted
speech making tour, was described to- ]
day ns feeling “about the-anme” after
a night in which lie was able to get
considerable rest.
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.

YOUNG LADIES HOSTS
AT ATTRACTIVE DANCE
IN STATE ARMORY
Fine Weather t'omlueho To Success
Of Function Prize Waltz Was
Big Feature
A number of the younger set of An
napolis and vicinity were the partiei-1
pants last night in a very enjoyable
dance given in the State Armory, Bla
den street, under the auspices of a com
mittee of young ladies, for the benefit
of the Independent Fire Company o f
the Second ward.
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. The award consisted of a
. box of candy for the lady and a pair
of -ilk hose for the gentleman*
. A number of young men of the city
! gave a dance under similar arrange
' meats during the early part of this
:. i month, also as a benefit for the Inde
- pendent firemen, and it, too, was a
( | marked success.
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. It was plain tint j
much was placed on sale which would ;
have teen held if the weather seemed
to give great promise of long delayed ]
frosts. ),
One of the chief things in which the.,
tendency to sell could 1c noticed was',
tomatoes. 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.

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
