NAVAL ACADEMY NOTES.
Cadet Bookwalter, of the class of '94,
spent yesterday in Annapolis.
Cadets Bagley, of the first class and
Middleton, of the second class, were
called TO Washington Saturday on ac-
count of their physical examination.
Benches have been put out in "Lov-
ers' Lane" and every afternoon this
beautiful part of the Academy is throng-
ed with people, especially at six o'clock
when the band stops playing.
The U. 5. S. Monongahela will be
placed in commission May 10Th. The
itinerary of her cruise will he left TO the
discretion of her commanding officer,
Commander Brownson. But her objec-
tive point is announced as Madeira. The
Bancroftwill go into active service about
June lst.
The second class, class cf '96, have
| just received their class rings. The ring
was designed by Cadet w. $. Volkmar,
a member of the class. The principal
features of the engraved workmanship
on the ring are mermaid grasping the
spokes of steering wheel and crown
of wreaths surrounding the stone.
The Lehigh University baseball nine
defeated the Naval Cadets Saturday by
a score of 15 to Is. Up to the eighth
inning the cadets were ahead by score
of Is to 8, but in the last two Lehigh
caught on to Henderson's slow curves
and banged them all around the grounds.
Lehigh's fielding was extremely poor,
and the cadets but little better. New
ins and GOss occupied the points for Le-
high and Henderson and ToZer for the
cadets.
The order of Superintendent Cooper,
shutting out bicyclists from the Naval
Academy, officers and their families ex-
cepted, has stirred up the wheelmen and
their friends here, and some propose a
crusade on the officers to require them
to carry lights and bells whilst in the
city, according to the city ordnance. A
few careless wheelmen, who endangered
persons whilst recklessly riding in the
Academy, were the cause of the strin-
gent order.
The regular annual warned list, called
by the cadets "The Maypole," and cor
responding to similar list published
every year Just before the semi-annual
examinations, known as the "Christmas
Tree, y was read to tue battalion Satur-
day after dinner. This list contains the
names Of those cadets who are in danger
of being unsatisfactory in one or more
branches after the approaching annual
examinations. Quit a number of first
and second claSsmen were on this list,
but it is thought all OF them will pass.
During the week beginning May 18th,
| the first class have for drill deviation OF
the compass and practice in swinging
| the Bancroft, while the rest of the bat
TALON, with second class for officers,
have skirmish drill on the government
farm. One company, deploying as skir-
mishers, goes round In the valley below
and in the rear Of the old hospital, firing
| at the enemy whenever he shows him
self, and when. Joined by the other at
| tacking company, charges up the hill at
the eIemy and captures the hospital
| The battaTi0n is then marched abreast
| the wall surrounding the Naval Acade
my grounds and made to climb over tht
same.
