NAVAL ACADEMY SLANG.
locaIlsms Which One Hears Mlddics
Use at Annapolis.


Slang among college men, slang
among street gamins and slang in so
ciety has been referred to and the
terms quoted in public print, but there
are slang terms at the Naval Academy
at Annapolis which have not yet, and
probably never will, become common
property. However, the dignity CT
the future admirals OF the navy VIII
not permit of it being ceilad Slang;
therefore 1t must bc known only as
Annapolis locaiissns." Here are a
few of TIE "lccalisms" CT the mid
dies"
The yacht" Is the training ship e2l-
ployed for summer cruises and fer
winter drills; tho brig" IS that part
Of the berth deck where the "p!c5as"
are sent for light punishment, such as
for smoking, drinking. splitting on the
floor or deck, taking French leave"
playing a little quiet game and get
ting caught at it, etc. Each ship IN
commission also has brig" to which
only the sailors to be punished may
be sent, the officers being confined
to their rooms when under punish
ment. To shake leg" means "to
get move on" to hurry. To be pro
jccted" or hung on the Christmas
tree" Is to be posted for low mark;
sat" and "unsat" are short for sas-
isfactory and unsatisfactory; skinny"
means chemistry; sup" Is nice. Holy
Joo" refers to the captain, and "holy-
stoning" the decks applies to the use
of big block of sandstone, with a
rope or toggle at each end, by which
1t IS hauled back and forth to scrub
the decks white on every Sunday
morning, or when the President OF
the United States or some high cfh
cial Is expected to visit the ship;
grub" signifies food and regular
meals; salt horse is the designating
term for salt beef; "plunduf7" meanc
sort Of rolypoly pudding. a mixture
Of dough. without shortening. and
through which, If one wants to stop
tc investigate. may be found here and
there a Taisin; "spuds" means po-
tatoe; "tag ends" is the name of
book Of jokes published at the Naval
Academy few years ago; pinnacle
list" Is the list of sick made out By
the surgeon each morning after he has
inspected and examined the tongues
and pulses of those who complain OF

Greet in the use Of Annapolis local
isms" when In public is shown by an
instance Of a midshipman who re-
ceived leave for few days some time
ago. Stopping at a restaurant, the
young officer said to the waitress who
appeared at his table that he would

Football and Insanity.

During the year 1902, two men in
America were killed in prize-fghts;
and. in a season OF three months just
passed, twenty-one men have been
killed playing football. Fifteen of
these died from broken necks or bro,
ken backs. How many men have been
ruptured and permanently Injured id
various other ways no man can say.
I know, says Elbert Hubbard, in the
March Cosmopolitan, that two young
men with whom I am personally &C.
quainted, are now in lunatic asylums
as result Of football, and their raw
ings are the cries and signals Of thi.
game. If you still think that football
is manly sport. you might. interview
the parents Of these young men.

A GREAT many remedies to Temporal
n rily relieve catarrh have been devised
from time to time, such as sprays, snutfs,
creams and other local applications, but, as
rule, the medical profession has little or
no enthusiasm in the treatment OF catarrh.
It is generally pronounced by them to
be incurable.
1t therefore created a great sensation in
medical circles when DR.. Hartman an
nounced that he had devised compound
which woald cure catarrh permanently:
The remedy was named Peruna, and IN
O short time became known to thousands
OF catarrh sufferers north, south, east and
west.
Letters testifying to the fact that Pc
runa is a radical cure for catarrh began to
pour in from all directions.
Thousands of such letters are on file in
the Office of The Peruna Medicine Co.
Rev. E. Stubenvoll, Pella, Wis. writes:
tI feel obliged to extend you my personal
thanks for my complete restoration. All
through the winter I suffered from throat
and lung trouble, but recovered my entire
health by the use OF your excellent rem
edy. Peruna."

 The Reliance went out for a short spin at Sandy Hook carly this morning and then tho gaff was unslung and put on board the tender Sunbeam, and taken to the Erie Basin. where it is to be strengthened with some diagonal frames. Capt. Nat I1erreshoff was on 1 the Sunbeam ,and he marked where l the strengthening parts are to be put and carefully superintended the work. i He had nothing to say about the race except that the Reliance had come up to his expectations.
 Then the Earl and Countess of Shaft | csbury paid visit to Grants tomb, while Sir Thomas went to the Erie Basin to look after his yacht. He seemed to be rather blue at the result of yesterdays race. but is as deter mined as ever to make as game flght

Lieutenant Jordan. in com mand of the engineer corps at the two lights was informed by telephone that the umpires had decided that no land ing was effected by the invaders as the men and boats had been put out of ac- tion before the landing was attempt ed. Therefore the capture of all points on the cape. including the signal. search light and fire control stations at the two lights. the defense at Silver Springs and the searchlight at Pond Cove are void. and they stand as if no attempt had been made at their cap ture.

New York. Aug. 2S.-Sir Thomas Lip ton gave out today the first sign Of irritability and disappointment in his three contests for the possession of the Americas cup. He realizes that he is contending against two great odds Q superior vessel and a superior crew. He said today that he had not given up hope, for he would rot be beaten until he had lost three races. He adde l though that he would rot challenge again for the cup 'ntiI his country ha l produced q better builder of yachts than had constructed one yet He said it was useless to try to conceal his dis appointment at the showing made by the Shamrock III.

THE TAKING OF MAINE
Enemy Succeeds in Landing After a
 Terrible Bombardment.

Portland. Me, Aug. 2S.-After several hours of terrific bombardment the coast defenses of Cape Elizabeth have been captured by a large force from the navy. Sixteen hundred men parti- cipating in the mimic war going on here have effected d landing and are now in complete possession of the for tifications.
 Long Island capitulated yesterday morning after a desperate resistance, and this point of vantage in the hands of the navy in addition to the defenses of Cape Elizabeth. leaves the sea fight CTS in an admirable position to effect lively attack all other points by land as we'll as by sea
 The capture of Cape Elizabeth was rendered possible by the fact that the big searchlights were not working last night.
 All in all. the navy. up to the pres ent stage of the war game. have con- siderably the better of the contest. despite the fact that the land forces yesterday spectacularly destroyed ff- teen vessels opposed to them. These vessels went back into commission last evening at sundown.
 It is considered that the develop ments of yesterday and today have been the most important which have so far transpired in the war game.
 At noon tomorrow the war waged off this port since midnight of Tuesday with all manner of maneuvers by the navy will come to an end and the several thousand men hurried to the defense of the city will be withdrawn frcm the haIbor defenses.

GETTING READY FOR TO-DAY.

New York, Aug. cS.-The Shamrock III. and Shamrock L, on which the sailors arc now living, were lowed up from Sandy Hook early this morning to the Erie Basin. where the challenger was put in the Boston Dry Dock for q cleaning and to have some of her rivets hammered up. A few rivets in the starboarG bilge had worked loose in the pounding she got in the choppy sea in the last race. The boat was not at all foul. but Mir. Fife thought that it would be better to have her cleaned and overhaulcd again and so keep her in the finest possible condition for the races that are still to be sailed.
 The men seemed to be discouraged by the race of yesterday. They did not make any excuses except that it was never asserted that Shamrock III. was at her best in a strong breeze. Her best weather is in a wind from eight to twelve miles an hour, and every one hopes she will have an opportunity to show tomorrow what she do under the conditions that are supposed to be her strongest.

Seems To Be the Natural Element of
 Langley's Houseboat.

Whitewater Va, Aug. 2S.-Professor Langleys airship houseboat had another disastrous experience in a Pc tomac gale this evening. Soon after the experts gave up hopes of launching the aerodrome today and returned to Clifton Beach a storm broke furiously. The houseboat slipped her moorings and travelled rapidly down stream for two miles. where her anchors caught in the mud bottom.
 A few men were board, but they were powerless, and the storm was toe severe for any assistance to be afford ed by the tugs. The small steam launch, Tender, the Float and three row boats were lost. They were sought by the tugs unsuCcessfully and the search will be resumed Saturday. The Houseboat is now nearer the Virginia shore, where she will remain until after the experiment.

The Canadian yachtsmeh have envious eyes on the famous trophy. The Canadians have tried twice to win it and failed, and two years ago there was talk of a
 syndicate being formed and having a yacht built. but the trouble was that there was no designer in Canada Capa- ble of turning out a racing 90-foot and no shipyard that could do the fine work necessary on a big racing yacht.
