The Governors's Condition.

The condition OF Governor John Walter
Smith is much improved today. He
passed much better night last night
than the night before. and seems to be
on the mend. DIR. Wells, his attending
physician. hopes for steady improve
men in the condition OF his patient.
The Governors illness is Of much longer
duration than was expected at its incep-
tion. The fact is Col. Smith has been
a very busy man for two years. during
which time he has allowed himself no
rest or respite from poliucs and business
cares. His system felt the effects Of the
strain, and when he settled down here
to life of regularity, and one devoid OF
the rush and hustle to which he had
been so long accustomed, a relaxation
followed. His system was easily subject
to an attack of the grip. to which he fell
a victim. 1t is expected that several
days will elapse before he will recover
his strength to that degree which will
permit HIM TO resume his executive
duties. He is still confined TO his room.

parent. The State Circle is paved with
rough cobble stones and the Executive
Mansion is surrounded by circle which
is unpaved and but little better than a
country mud road. The Federal Cow
ernment has paved the street upon which
the Naval Academy binds. although it
is separated from it by a high brick wall.
Next to the Federal Government the
State is the largest property holder IN
the city, and, OF course. pays no taxes.
The tax rate OF Annapolis is already
high. and the city. in a spirit OF pro-
gressiveness. is about to expend sloo.-
600 in street and other Improvements
and il is contented that the State should
bear its part of the cost OF improving the
town along with other property holders.
Among the proposed improvements Is
the substitution of smooth pavements for
cobble stones on Maryland avenue, ex-
tending from the State House TO the
main entrance OF the Naval Academy.
