ANNAPOLIS. MD. FRIDAY. MAY
RUSIC At ST. JOHNS COLLEGE.
EVENING OF DELIGHTFUL ENTER
TAINMENT.
An Excellent Concert By The Mandolin
And Glee Clubs At Mcdowell
Hall-Appreciative
Audience.

Comparisons are odious, but those in
the audience last night at Mcdowell Hall,
who had attended the concert by the
Johns Hopkins students. given during
the past winter at the Naval Academy
armory, could not resist the temptation
of comparing that one, and the concert
given last night by the Mandolin and
Glee Clubs OF ST. Johns College, which
far excelled.
i St. Johns did herself proud last night,
and the concert was the best ever given
by the students of that venerable institu-
tion. When the curtain was drawn it
revealed very artistic stage setting. In
the background were silk flags in college
colors, yellow and black, the champion
ship streamers of baseball. football. ath-
letic meet, etc. Swords, guns, drums
and bugles were arranged on either side
of beautiful silk United States flag, and
branches OF dog-wood blossoms. lilacs
and palms. made pleasing spectacle.
The soft blue and bright red electric
lights, peeping from behind the flowers
and plants, lent charm to the artistic
stage setting, which was much admired.
The Mandolin Club never played better.
Their selections were all carefully chosen
and well received. Much credit is due
the leader, Mr.. o. b. Coblentz, to whom
much OF the success of last nights con-
cert is to be attributed. Mr.. Cobleniz is
a most popular student at St. Johns. lie
is an athlete, a musician and an all-round
useful young man. He enters into every
thing with heart and soul, and will be
greatly missed by both the Faculty and
students after his graduation this year.
The Glee Club sang well, especially
the bassos, under the leadszehip of Prot.
b. V. Cissel. showed CAREFUL training.
Mr.. A. w. Bradford. OF. has an excel
lent voice. His solo, "Rhoda,' from
"San Toy, was well sung and he re-
ceived much deserved praise. Mrs.
Cain solo, "Heaven Hath Shed Tear,
was sung with richness of tone and full
OF expression. Mrs. Cain has a well
trained voice and knows how TO use it
with telling effect. Mr.. Fontaine gave a
character song in Chinese costumes His
selection was thoroughly enjoyed. Miss
Edith Henning sang any Noble knight"
Her voice has the charm OF freshness as
we'll as sweetness, and her enunCiation is
very clear. Miss Henning was called and
recalled, and gave three beautiful solos.
The violin solo by Miss Mary Randall
was charmingly played. Miss Randall
Is fine musician and has mastered the
violin, an instrument which few women
ever play well. Miss Hannah Randall
was accompanlst of the evening.

Theresa" during the Spanish War. 1t
was the Austrian cruiser ahat came into
Santiago harbor an hour after the battle
of Santiago, and it was Count Mansfield
who propounded the question "What
has become of the Spanish navy ?" He
was told what had not sunken was burn
ing on the coast.

Inspector, in command of 4th Battery,
U. 5. field artillery arrived here this morn
ing, and visited St. Johns College for the
purpose of inspecting its corps of cadets.
The battalion was drawn up for review
on the campus in the rear of the college,
where it was subjected to battalion in
spection, battalion drill, battalion review
and company drill. All of the maneu-
vFes were executed with precision and
exactness and Inspector Parkhurst pro-
nounced St. Johns College to be the best
drilled OF any he had inspected. He said
the students made decidedly the best show
ing of any OF the State military institu-
tons, and highly complimented the cap
tains of the companies whom he said un-
derstood their business in their work.
Capt. Parkhurst pronounced the mill
tary instruction at ST. Johns College

THE CORRECTED CENSUS.
MARYLAND'S POPULATION STANDS
AT 1,188.044.
Total Population of Anne Arundel County
Is 39,620-A Loss of 398-D Differen-
ces Of Opinion Concerning
Census Act.


Director of the Census Merriam gave
out Yesterday the figures of the total pop
ulation of the State of Maryland. 1885, :
o44-aiter making changes incidental to
the RECOMMENDATION in ST. Mary's. Charles
and Anne Arundel counties. 1t reads
as follows
The discrepancy between the figures
for Charles county and those allowed by
the Census Office are believed to be due
to a certain extent to a different construc-
ton as TO what constitutes residence for
the purpose of enumeration within the
meaning OF the Census act. The Census
law does not clearly define what is meant
by abode or 'habitants,' both of which
occur in the section relating to the duties
OF enumeratots.
THE enumerators in Charles county
evidently proceeded on the theory that
persons having constructive residence
in the county entitled them to enumera-
ton. This Interpretation of the Law the
Office could not agree to, neither could it
agree that officeholders, regardless of the
time they had been absent from the
county, should be enumerated. In some
instances the enumerators took the ground
that unmarried persons. in the case of
men, either on the registration lists or
entitled to be there, and in the case of
women returning from time to time to
their families and claiming their homes
in the county, should have their names
placed on the schedules.
THE officials OF the Census Office
took the view that they should have been
enumerated at the place they slept on
June I, 1900. There seems to be some
difference of opinion concerning the
meaning of the Census act, The law
will undoubtedly, be amended in the
future to cover any possible mistakes as
TO those entitled 10 enumeration. The
Remuneration OF Anne Arundel county
gave evidence that large number OF
people who migrate from the cities dur
ing the early summer season to pick ber-
ries, peas, ETC., happened TO be in the
county in question on or about une /.
The Census Office made every endeavor
to place the people found to have been
enumerated in Baltimore, but only the
names OF few could be ascertained, and
so the office was impelled TO count 1857
as residents OF Anne Arundel county.
The final figures have been adjusted,
and the entire population OF the State OF
Maryland will stand at 1 ,I88. .o44, making
reduction of 1000 from the original
figures. Great laxity was found in sew
eral districts in not counting people therein
and the RECOMMENDATION showed a large
number of people not enumerated at the
proper time and place. The results OF
the investigation have been turned over
to the legal department OF the Govern
ment, and the Attorney-General or his
representative will indicate what further
action, if any, shall be taken. So far as
the Census Office is concerned its work
is finished.
