In his annual report Surgeon General
z. NJ. Rixey of the Navy calls attention
to the immediate need for temporary pro
vision for hospital treatment at the Naval
Academy pending the completion of the
hospital being built there. In speaking
of the hospital accommodations at the
Naval Academy. Admiral Rixey says;
Pending the completion of perma-
nent structure it is imperative that tenn
porary provision be made for his hospital
treatment OF the sick OF the station. The
number of midshipmen has been almost
doubled, the garrison OF marines will
shortly consist of 325 men and officers,
and the enlisted force of the navy on du-

"The senior medical officer of the sta

views of this officer and urges prompt

MIDD|ES VS.. GEORGETOWN.
The Nav Team Anticipates A Hard Stug-
gle This Afternoon is DAILY
Faking Or In Earnest.

The Georgetown team arrived this
morning and will line up this after
noon with the Midshipmen on the
Naval Academy gridiron. The mid
dies anticipate a hard struggle.
On the seasons record Georgetown
has better chance, and comes flush
ed with victory over the University of
North Carolina, at Norfolk, Va, ON
Saturday. Georgetown also defeated
the Baltimore Medical College by a
score of % to o, while the Midship-
men in the half played against the
same team before the death of one of
the visiting players, did not score, nor
were they scored against.
Early in the season Georgeown also
held Princeton down to five points.
Last year Georgetown won from the
Navy to o, scoring two safeties The
Navy team has practically been at a
standstill since Saturday S game, when
it lost to Lafayette by one point.
There is a well authorized report in
circulation here that DAILY, the crack
quarter back for two years of the West
Point team, and who previously play
ed on and captained the Harvard var
sity team, will not play against the
navy bIllS year. III ldtt, dtilOukll no
pledge TO that effect was given, it was
stated absolutely by West Points rep
resentatives that DAILY had no inten-
tion of playing this year, and he has
MOI. been used in any of the games.
1t is known that Daily, after having
captained the Harvard team, never has
cared to play football at West Point,
and only Welded to extreme pressure.
Ii is said that he wishes to give up
football still more strongly since his
presence on the Army team has mainly
occasioned the controversy between
the two institutions, and that he posi-
lively will not play this year. Never
theless, the Navy does not intend to
rely upon his absence from the game,
but will prepare itself as well as pos
sible to cope with him.

A LAUGHING SUCCESS.
Nj. Henry {. Dirsy, Artist And Comedian,
Scores A Nit In Facing The
Music" At Colonial.

''The Governors Son." played here
some weeks ago, and thought, to be the
best laughable, farcical comedy ever
produced ON the local stage, was forc-
ed to second place last night by the
fun compound Facing The Music, :"
in which Mr. Henry Il. Dixey, of
''Adonis" fame appeared as the leading
character. The piece scored one of
the biggest laugh hits of the season,
and the audience, as critical, phleg-
matte and hard to- please as the aver
age Annapolis audience usually is,
broke the record by demanding three
curtain call at the close of every act.
: The plot is founded on a mix-up of
the Smiths, two families of the same
name and residing in the same apart
ment house. Mr.. Dixey as young
husband, whose young wife is away
from home on a visit, is suddenly be-
set by a singular succession of mis-
haps 1t transpires that living in the
same fiat as the young husband, whose
Name is Smith, is a curatet whose
name also is Smith. Like the plain
Mr.. Smith, the Reverend Smith is
married, and to young wife. Like
his citizen namesake also, the church
mans wife is away from home. Re
turning home in her husbands tenn
p0rary absence, the wife of the curate,
through a very natural and very in
genious situation, takes up her abode
in the home of the plain Mr. Smith.
The said plain Smith, at the hour
of her arrival, being rather frivolously
elsewhere than at his own fireside.
The comic woes of the four Smiths
nd % al 81 F..II
as consequences of this mix-up are ex-
ed its way through the audience, which
was fairly large one, and which
numbered the most prominet people in
town and the Naval Academy. Mr..
Dixey is very artistic comedian and
is well known to theatre goers. His
comic portraiture of the leading comic
laughable and masterly delineation of
the character he assumed. In all parts
of the play he appealed to the risi-
bilities until laughter and mith were
contagious and spread throughout the
audience and even those who are
never known to smile were indulging
in hearty laughter.
The fun was due to the clean, spark.
ling wit and cleverness with which
Facing The Music" bristled, and
left a fragrance and wholesomeness
that will not soon be forgotten. The
entire support was good and each gave
q most creditable Interpretation of his
role, carrying the lines out with mag
netic personality as well as presenting
the comedy in forcible manner. Mr.
Dixey and Mr.. Cooper gave q pretty
little "playet' or curtain raiser, en-
titled cover a Welsh Rarebit. - 1t
was cleverly presented and pointed
moral and taught lesson that club
men are not always the worst sort.
The stage setting was very attractive
and the making of the Welsh rarebit
excited hunger in the audience. The
Annapolis theatre contingent hopes to
welcome Mr.. Dixey again before the
close of the season.

To Occupy New Home.

After the November election the
judges of the Court of Appeals, it is
thought, will hold Court in their new
home in the handsome State Building
recently completed. In expectation of
this, Mrs. Jeffers, the state Librarian,
is having the law books in the State
library removed from their temporary
quarters in the old State House to the
new library in the Court of Appeals
building. Already 10, 600 volumes have
been moved, but it will be nearly a
year before all the books are in their
new quarters, as very few of the
shelves and other fixtures for the new
library have arrived.

ON TRIAL FOR HER LIFE.
ALL FOR A SMALL HEAD OF CABBAGE
Eliza Gross, COIOred, Indicted For The
Murder Of Mary Holland,
Also COIOIed.

Eliza Gross, colOred was arraigned
this morning in the Circuit Court be-
fore Judge Revell and Daniel r. Ran
dali, prosecuting, for the murder of
Mary Holland, also colored, on Aug
ust 27th, last, on the premises of Viii
liam Perry, near Friendship, in the
Eighth Election district.
When the case was called the accus-
ed, having no one to represent her, the
Court appointed Mr.. A. Theo. Brady.
The case is being tried by jury. The
whole trouble grew out of a dispute
over a head of cabbage. William Hol-
land, husband of the deceased, woman,
who bears an excellent character in
the neighborhood, testified that his
wife, about o'clock OH the morning
of the fatal deed, sent her daughter
into the garden of the Gross woman
to cut head of cabbage.
I Mrs. Gross wanted to know by
whose authority the cabbage was cut,
when the Holland woman replied by
her authority, then some angry words
followed, and the Gross woman drew
out sharp knife and began to cut the
Holland woman right and left infiict-
ing a serious wound i'll the left side,
from which she died in a short time.
The daughter of the deceased woman
also testified to her mother sending
her into the garden for the cabbage,
and of the Gross woman coming to
their house and abusing her mother
and calling her ugly names, and then
striking her in the face and cutting
her with the knife.
The case of John Wilson was tried
before the Court, charged with as
sault, and found not guilty.
