Evening capital. (Annapolis, Md.) 1884-1910, 1885-02-12
HERE AND THERE.

HOW ala you like the snow
last night, Tom, queried a gentleman
at the Maryland this morning. "Ohl
you missed it" was the reply. "It
was first class, sir; first class-Just
what you would have liked"
"Ahl l tell you what, this is a cold
snap-the coldest weather have felt
for many years." was the remark of an
old citizen this morning, as he stepped
into one of our drug stores. "Yes it
is pretty cold, said the man of drugs,
"but | think we have had it equally
as cold in former years." But the old
fellow shook his head and nudged his
chair nearer the stove.
A student of st. Johns was giving
his experience of college life, free gra-
tis for nothing, to one of the Calef
troupe this morning at the Maryland.
"You are student, are you of St.
John's?" queried the man of boards.
"Well, was,up to within few days."
remarked the young man of books,
"but fellow student and myself got
bounced by the faculty for little
racket that was made in one Of the
college halls because we refused to
divulge the principals in the affair.""
DO you expect to 60 back again?"
queried the Snowman. "Well. that's
what we are waiting to see; we are
only within four months of our gradu-
alton, and tits not a fair thing to shut q
fellow out at this late day without
good and sufficient grounds; there is
a good deal Of spite work exhibited in
this affair by one of the high officials
of the institution, who, in his exalted
position has forgotten his early or ev
en- more latterly college life. I shall
remain around here until the end of
the week; and if no definite action is
taken in the matter shall skip" III
don't like to see young man deprived
of his alma mater, when almost with
in his reach, as you say yours is,
without good reason" /" replied the
theatrical man, as he blew the curling
smoke from cigarette. The young
student was very free in expressing
himself, and said he could tale un.
fold if he related all he knew in con.
nection with the college, but he
thought still tongue made wise head
and changed his conversation.
"Well, Judge, how are you this
morning" said of one of the venera.
bic Judges of the Court of Appeals
as he stepped into the lobby Of the
Maryland this morning from the
breakfast room. "Well," replied the
man of law, II didn't rest very well
last night, it was after three before /
got to Sleep" "Ah you ought to
have gotten up and taken good
slug" said the venerable Judge to
his fellow associate in law. "WeIl, /
tried that once" said the other Judge.
"bUt it had the tendency of keeping
me awake" you didn't take
enough" he replied. "You remem-
ber the familiar quotation:
Shallow draughts intoxicate the brain
But drinking deeply, sobers us again.
Said the venerable Judge. as
he shnfied into his over coat with q
cbnckle, and passed out of the door.
IF there is anything l admire in q
man" said the manager of the Calef
Dramatic Company to q representa-
tive of the CAPITAL this morning, ''it
is fair dealing and honesty. A mans
word should be his bond, and when q
man says one thing and does the op-
posite-he is q tri6er and his word
is not 70 be taken. It is not nv
principle to take advantage of any
man, and | never parley with a man
who knowingly misrepresents facts
1 always believe the easiest way is
the best way to get rid of such men.
and If they have bill to pay-pay it
and let them go-but I always re-
member that man, with what
success is your troupe meeting here?''
queried the reporter. Crowded
houses. sir, every night--the people
are delighted with our performances
they are irst-class in every particu-
lar. as the personnel Of Our company
will prove. We have played in ali /
the largest cities in the country, to |
the most fashionable audiences. and |
have given the greatest satisfaction. = |
Then you are gratifed with your
success, asked the CAPITAL man
