A MORTGAGE IN THE CASE

The trial of the case of Lucy A. Raw
son VS.. f. Gross et al. before Judge Van
Dyke yesterday. brought to the surface a
rather astonishing state of thinps. The
suit in question is one to foreclose on a
mortgage to SO 'ure $500 promissory
note. The alleged mortgage, strange to
say. is neither recorded nor acknowi-
edged. and the note bears the astonish-
ing ra,e of interest of 10 per cent per
month, compounded. Judge Van Dyke,
after hearing all the testimony, took the
matter under advsement and will give
his opinion in a few days, doubtless.
Ten per cent per month is about the
sseepest rats of interest on recprd on a
note made out in regular form, and when
it was read caused quite sensation in

BASE BALL.
Annapolis Team and Laurel Ath-
letic Club Cross Bats-A Kick
ing Team-Fun of Excite
ment-The Score.

Another crowd of baseball kickers
visited the "Ancient City. Yesterday
afternoon and forfeited a game to the
Annapolis team. The Laurel Athletic
Club has great hopes of winning the
pennant and If useless aud nonsensical
kicking and delaying of games are strong
points, they have some reason for their
hopes. What at the start seemed to be
the hest game played here this year, was
Dy the school-boy actions of the visitors,
turned into a farce. If there had been
any grounds for dispute, it would have
been all right, but when team refuses
to play aud leaves the field because a
new ball is not thrown out whenever
the one in play is batted, seems most
ridiculous. Several times had the Lau-
rel team left the field and returned,
when in the ninth inning the climax
came. Laurel had been retired in her
half of the ninth without run, and
with the score still tie, Annapolis
came to the bat to win the game. Wal
ter Brady, first man up, flied out To
first; John Tydings WAS then struck 10y
pitched ball and sent TO base; Thomas
Tydings made a single and with men ON
first and second, Clarke came TO the bat.
The second hall pitched L, him, although
umpire by mistake called it ball. I'M
mediately Captain Kelley. of Laurel.
started TO dispute the decision. The
umpire asked Clarke If he struck at il,
and being answered in the Affirmative,
changed his decision, but something still
didn't suit as Laurel picked up their
bats and left the field. After allowing
them the time limit. the umpire award
ed the game'to Annapolis 10y a score of
8 to 0. This is the second game that
the Laurel Athletic Club has lost this
season through kicking. The principal
feature of the game were Jacobs three
base hit into deep left field in the sixth
inning, and Tydings' splendid work III
the box, especially in the eighth inning
when, with the score tied, one man out
and men on second and third bases, he
struck out the next two battels in one
two-three-order. The score is as fol-
lows:
