A CITIZEN OF ANNAPOLIS.

1.-The Record of this morning,
pays Governor John Walter Smith
the following compliment, which
the CAPITAL takes pleasure in copy
ing:
Gov. Smith has come into our
midst clothed with the dignity of a
democratic nomination for Governor
and honored with a triumphan:
election by the people. BY the
organic law Of the State, citizen of
Annapolis, he is not only our chief
magistrate but he is our fellow
townsman, who is justly entitled
10 our respect and courtesy, but
he came amongst US havingit already
for he was known in advance,
of our confidence, friendship and
esteem. A man of unblemished
character, a citizen Of large enter.
prise, leader Of intellect, a
Marylander in manners, a democrat
in bearing. he has every quality to
confer honor upon the Office he
holds and give pleasure to those
whom business or society throws in
his company. He is unusually
qualified for the Office of
Governor, by his previous
residence amongst us, by long
experience in State affairs at
the capital and by the numerous
acquaintanceships he has formed
in this favored and historic city. A
united populace, irrespective of party
or classes, rises up to do Governor
John Walter Smith honor. On
the very Threshold Of his
administration, he has given
the earnest that he will make
his administration success as a
political force, as social factor
and as capably conducted func-
ton of government, thoroughly in
touch with the best interests of the
State and City.

FOR CLEANING TAN SHOES

Banana skins are really excellent for
cleaning tan shoes. People forget this
now and again. and so for their benefit
the information is repeated frequently
in women's magazines devoted to
household matters. But the latest VOC
aries of the banana skin shoe cleaner
could not have been readers of the wo-
mems magazines; in fact. they were
hardly old enough to read anything,
but they were assiduously at work sit
ting on the sidewalk of one of the poor
er streets of the city rubbing their
shoes with the skins. They were very
little tots. boy and a girl, and wheth-
have been hard to tell, they were so
old and shabby.
But the children rubbed away vigor-
ously and when the little girl found
there was too much of the banana on
her hands she would wipe them care
1t didn't make much difference to the
gown for that was not clean anyway.
When last seen the children We're
still working away seriously. 1t would
be interesting to know If it was only
by accident that the children we're
cleaning their Shoes in this way. or If
by chance the little bit of informa ton
concerning cleaning shoes had perco-
lated down by means of the missions to
these little tots in the streets.-New
York Times.

RUN OVER BY DRAY.
Careless Chinese Driver Nearly Kills
Little japanese Boy.

a four-year-old japanese boy was
run over by a dray driven by Chinese
on Beretania street opposite Thomas
Square on Tuesday afternoon and was
quite severely injured.
Dr. Wood and Or. Garvin went TO the
spot and the boy was conveyed to the
Queens hospital where DIR. Wood
dressed his wounds. one OF the horses
had stepped on the little ones abdo-
men and he was frightfully cut, but af-
ter his wounds had been stitched up he
seemed to suffer little and prospects
are excellent for his recovery.
