ST. JOHNS MAY WITHDRAW.
From The Intercollegiate Athletic Associ-
alton Other Athletic News At
The College.

The St Johns College Athletic Asso-
ciatIon by unanimous vote decided to
propose the dissolution OF the Mary land
intercollegiate Association, consisting oI
Johns Hopkins, Western Maryland and
St. Johns College.
This association at one time embraced
nearly every college in the State. St.
Johns feels that she has been badly
treated on several occasions, and will al
any rate withdraw from the body. Man.
ager Spencer, OF the baseball team, re.
ported that his schedule would shortly
be filed with desirable games.
The track and field team promises
we'll. Manager Hu,chins and most Of
last years men are back. This team
will not contest with Johns Hopkins, bu,
a meeting will be arranged with Western
Mary land. Il was decided TO try 10

Hopkins for next fall as usual. The
athletic field is to be remodeled and a
new hall mile cinder track is to be pu,
in. A goli course will be laid out, ard a
proposition is made that boathouse be
built and that crew be put on the water.

Prince Henry of Prussia will sail for
the United States next Saturday, as ar
ranged. Even should President Roose-
velt's sons illness result fatally before
that time the Prince will enter upon his
journey unless it should appear to be
Presidents Roosevelt's desire that his
visit be deferred or omitted altogether.
The first impulse OF the Prince was tc
postpone his trip or give it up altogether.
He was advised, however, not to make
this decision, and to bear in mind thai
his visit was not personal one to Presi

that while fatal ending to young Roose

PRINCE HENRY's VISIT
To Annapolis And The Naval Academy
The Chief Topic Of Discussion
How To Entertain Him
is The Question.
Is The Question.

Auo Oniel 1OplC VI OlkOueslOn
How To Entertain Him
Is The Question,
The approaching visit OF Prince Henry
OF Prussia to the Naval Academy is al
ready the chief topic OF conversation.
How to receive this royal parsonage and
what things are to be done to properly
entertain him are questions which are
not snswered by any precedent. for never
has any member OF royal family visited
the Academy In a represe ntaiive capacity
which called for a formal reception from
national naval training school.
The Academy's connection with roy.
atty consists entirely with young scions
Of royal families who have been sent TO
the Naval Academy for education as
naval officers by a special arrangement
between their government and that OF
the United States. The most noted OF
these was Prince Peter OF Orleans, a son
OF Louis Philippe, who was a member OF
the class OF 1860, and Tamura, who
graduated in 1890 and who was very
close to the throne of Japan. No official
intimalion Of the time or duration OF the
Prince visit has yet been received by
Superintendent Wainwfigh ht, or even that
he will be here at all. but il is known
that he will reach here on the 78ih of this
m onih. and it is thought that his visit
will cover about three hours.
There will be no more OF the social
features than are absolutely necessary.
for it is recognized that Prince Henry
has a sufieit OF that kind Of thing. but
has tastes for things nautical will be graft
flied rs far as possible, and as far as the
weather permits all the practical exer-
cises which go into the training OF the
American naval officer will be exhiti' ed
to him. There will be at least one social
feature, which will take the form OF a
luncheon, at the home OF Superintendtn Mt
Wainwright. II will. Of course, be in
keeping. in point of brlliancy, with what
is due representative OF a great friendly
foreign nation who staLds so close TO its
head. No doubt Governor John Walter
Smith will also in some way recognize
socially the presence OF the distinguished
guest at the Executive Mansion.

Identification Not Illumination.


Mr.. Editor - The d recently issued
by the Naval Academy authorities in
prescribing a badge tor the employe
working on the new improvements seems
to have created a dissatisfaction among
some oi them. while others are willing to
wear the badge on entering the Academy
gates. The objection has failed to show
where any humiliation or unjust con-
science is attached TO wearing the said
badge. The Superintendent Ct the u. S
Naval Academy is officially and moralIs
responsible for the discipline OF that in
stitulion and its ir Enclosures. and he is
supreme To repeal that order would es
tabhsh bad precedent. and only furnish
material for gossip. The badge means
identification and not humiliation.

Academy.
Captain Richard Wainwright, superin.
tendent OF the Naval Academy, states
that It would be possible for the Naval
Academy TO turn out the first class as
competent naval officers in March, bu,
that IL is very much desired by the
Naval Academy authorities that il will
not be necessary both for the coed OF the
service and for the individual cadets.
The last six months OF the academic
course is given over TO exeee edngly prac-
tical exercises in professional subjects.

a chance to try practically. II would b.

that 1t would be pleasant for the order to

welcome such an order would be the

succeed to the rank and privileges now
held by the first class. The departure

Hampton had been sitting therein per

make UP, and had thirty minutes to put in on
his part before his dressins-room mate ar.
rived or course every one knew he never
would get off the text. Hadn't they heard him
at the afternoon rehearsal. when he made
every one of them ask who he was because
he was letter perfect. and the-y knew he
hadn't been given the part until that moT-
ming?
Temple had been taken suddenly i'll and
wired that he couldn't go on that night.
When you know his part was thirty sides
and he had no sunderstudy, you may imagine
how the other principals felt when the stage
manager introduced old HAMPTON and ex-
planned that he would play TEMPLES part in
the evening . sTys
Hampton had a queer stride that didn't
help their peace of mind. but the first time
over the parts he showed that he knew what
the center of the stage was, and he got it
every time, and when they discovered that he
knew all the business, and Temples business

AMERICANS WANT AMERICAN ART1'

Complaints are made by hardware ana
furniture dealers of western Canada that
Canadian manufacturers do not hnlsn
their goods so neatly and attractively as
American manufacturers. 1t is admitted
that in many articles Of everyday use on
tho farm and in the workshop the buyer
would pick the American make il prices
were the same. The tariff makes the price
favor the Canadian article sf :,
The Canadian manufacturer is now
warned that he must finish his product IN
a sunerior manner or lose the big trade of
the American settlers. The latter are &C
customed to American farm machinery
and tools, each farmer usually having MS
particular favorite brand, and they Will
willingly pay a somewhat higher price for
American goods, especially when they APP
near to be better than Canadian goods.
At present one -third of the agricultural
machinery and general farm supplies sold
in western Canada are made in the United
States. Unless the Canadian tariff should
be greatly increased the proportion will
remain as large and will probably In
crease. Instances have been reported OF
American farmers settled in Canada will

In these facts there is suggestion for

not permanently impaired.
Mr.. Irwin has taken the Rubaiyat and be
has had sport with it. Old Omar, with his
simple jug of wine would hardly recognize
the Baccanalian revel in which Mr.. Irwin has
enshrouded his verses. The lady whose pres
ence Omar desired in the garden talks modern
slang in Mr.. Irwin s verse in a most distress

Mr.. Irwin also. introduces his old friend
Khayyam to the tobacco evil, thus adding a
vice to his repertoire of which the Persian
never dreamed. He sings:
