QUITS CONVENT QUARTERS.
Mrs. Kate Kealy Becomes Very
Troublesome And Gets
Notice To Leave.

1t is understood that Mrs Kealy,
who left Annapolis ON Monday morn
ing for New York, ON her return will
not receive the hospitality of the
Sisters of Notre Dame.
After remaining with the Sisters for
over a week Mrs. Kealy became some~
what troublesome, but the good Sisters
succeeded in quieting her. At the ex-
piration of two weeks, for which time
the Sisters had agreed 10 take her, she
asked for an extension of one or two
weeks. The Rev. Mother of the Order
OF Notre Dame was visiting the con-
vent at the time and granted the re-
quest under the same conditions, viz !:
that the Sisters should accept no board
from Mrs. Kealy.
Two weeks ago she sent for those in
charge of the convent and seemed very
much wrought up accusing the Sisters
who were working in the laundry of
talking about her, and of using abus-
i've language to her. An effort was
made TO reason with the woman and
to make her understand that her ner-
vous condition caused her TO misun-
derstand the situation of affairs, but
all that could be said only served to
make her more irascible. Finally she
spoke insultingly to the Sisters, and
was then told TO look for other quart
ers. From that time she refused TO rec
ognize those in charge of the convent
and became morose and reticent, pay
ing no attention. to the Sisters.
Seeing she made no move to leave,
and knowing that they had lost their
influence over her, the Sisters began
to fear her, and at the expiration of
the two weeks extra time granted her
by the Rev. Mother of the Order, Mrs.
Kealy was given weeks notice to
leave the convent enclosure, which she
did on Monday morning last. She re-
tanned her grudge against the Sisters
to the end, leaving the convent with
out seeing them or sending any mes
sage to those in authority. Mrs. Kealy
will probably remain in New York
for four or five weeks, when she
will return to Annapolis and look
for other quarters

New Quarters For Old Stand

Mr.. George w. Jones, who recently
purchased the old postoffice building
on Main street, is having improve
ments made preparatory to moving in
to the building on December 1. He is
crowded for room in his present quart
ers and the new store will afford him
ample space for the display of his
stock, besides storage room on the sec
ond floor Mr.. Jones is the oldest
newsdealer in Annapolis and by strict
attention to business and conscientious
dealings with his patrons he has estab-
lished the largest and most successful
business of its kind in the city. The
new quarters will afford ample room
for enlarging and increasing the bust
ness and better display OF the large
stock Mr.. Jones carries. Every effort
is being made to have the new store in
readiness for the display of his Christ
mas goods.

SECRET PRACTICE BEGUN.
The Middies Are Getting Into
Shape For The Army
Navy Game.

The Midshipmen began ON yesterday
their secret practice in preparation for
the great contest of the year, that with
West Point on Franklin Field, Phila-
delphia, ON November 2Sth.
Two great problems are before the
coaches, the development of stronger
defense and the perfecting of some
fast end plays. The Navy cannot hope
to have as strong line as their cppo-
nents and the only chance of victory
lies in perfecting of swift open plays.
The coaches regret very much the
wet weather of the last two DAYS, as
sharp practice games are the only
means by which sufficient defense can
be acquired to hold West Point to any
degree at all. Only signal work and
practice in new formations were done
Yesterday. The coaches have now about
settled upon the back field and most
of the line, although this is subject
to change by them later on.
!. Halsey, at fullback; Wilcox, at quar-
ter back. End Strassburger at left half
back, are certain, and Doherty is in
the lead at the other half back. Soule
and Howard will be the ends, Grady,
left tackle, Goss, center, Oak, right
guard. Pearsel and Rees are candi-
dates for the other tackles, and Cham
bers, Smith and Mcconnell have all
been tried at left guard.
The team, as il is now constituted,
is somewhat heavier than in the early
part of the season. The men on the
line are all willing and spirited if not
brilliant The backs are fast lot
and are getting together nicely Every
one recognizes that the chances are in
favor of the Army this year, but
those who are expecting a walk over
may be surprised.

Mr.. Louis S. Clayton, the clerk of
the City Council, has unearthed from
the safe of the city, and hung on the
wall of the Council Chamber, an inter
esting and beautiful relic. 1t is part
of fine glass chandelier, that used
to hang in the ballroom of the Assem-
bly, Rooms. During the Civil War
when the Federal troops occupied the
building the chandelier was destroyed,
either by piecemeal or by the fire that
burnt part of the building About
ten or twelve years ago gentlman
from Pennsylvania who had been one
of the soldiers who had been quartered
in the Assembly Rooms, returned this
piece of. the chandelier that Mr.. Clay
ton has hung up ON the wall, to the
city authorities. This is valuable
relic of colonial times. Washington
has danced under the chandelier.

A Brilliant Play.

Mr.. Winston Churchill, in whose
brilliant play, 1.-THE Crisis, Miss Isa-
bel Irving and her company will be
seen at the Colonial Theatre ON Mon
day night, has learned better than any
modern author the value of big set
tings and massive backgrounds for the
episodes Of his stories. Few authors
would dare utilize all the horrors Of
the Civil War as background for a
pair of young lovers, and yet this is
Just what this young American writer
has done.

House Votes Tomorrow.

Tomorrow at O'Clock a vote will
be taken in the House of Representa-
tlves on the bill which is to make ef-
fective the reciprocity treaty signed
last year with Cuba. Although the
Democrats desired to submit amend
ments to Objectionable features of the
bill, and took advantage of the oppor-
tunity given by the debate TO assail
the Dingley Tariff act, enough of them
will vote for the measure to insure its
passage even though many Republi-
cans should remain insurgents. In
the Senate the debate on the tariff
will probably be much longer, as the
rules of that body do not permit the
absolute silencing of the minority,
as is possible in the House.

Another Night of Darkness.

If any enterprising citizen had started
a sale of lanterns last night he would
have done rushing business. For the
second time in three days the city was
in utter darkness. 1t was possible to
grope ones way with some fair degree Of
success on streets partly Illuminated by
lights in shop. windows, but in the resi-
dence districts were no such lights. one
might as well have been blind. 1t is
rather remarkable, under the circum
stances, that no serious accidents were
reported. Inquiry at the Electric Light
Company's office revealed the fact that
the engine had broken down. The engine
appears to be acquiring this habit. II so
the installation of duplicate engine
would seem to be advisable.

Ii would not seem to make much differ
euce were Miss Tittell to return in an
old or new drama, for she appears TO
have following who are so interested in
the personality Of the actress that when
ever she plays or whatever she acts, they
crowd the house. However, the occas-
ion OF her temperance will be doubly
interesting, for she not only presents her
self, but drama by that exceedingly
clever Southern writer Mr.. Gable.
Miss Tittell has become badly miss

from the boards, and fearing that she
might abandon the profession there was

Poison In the Atmosphere.

SIOUX CITY, Aug. 14.-One of the
most remarkable atmospheric depres-
sions is reported from Oacolna, 5. D.
Following the hottest DAY ever experi-
enced in the South Dakota town oc.
Cured an atmospheric condition, last
ing only few minutes, but fatal to
live stock and greatly distressing to
human beings. During the Gay near.
ly every kitten less than six months
old in the vicinity of Oacoma died,
apparently from the effects of some
gaseous matter ia the air.
A bunch of Is head of cattle in one
drove was seen coming down from the
flats and eli ght ofthem fell to the ground.
A farmer living near by ran to them
and found six OF the eight already
dead, while the other two jumped up
and ran frautically away.
John Marin, a stockmau living on
White river, reports the loss OF six
head the same day. No losses have
occurred since and none prior to that
time. aud it is generally believed that
the copious rains which have fallen
since have ueutralized whatever pois.
on to ANNA. life may have been in the
air. It was a phenomenon heretofore
unknown here.

Fear Volcanic Eruption.

ROME, Aug. 13.-Vesuvius is again
causing intense alarm in the surround
ing region, eruptions of the volcano
being very heavy today. This alarm.
ing activity, which was followed by
shocks OF earthquake, is augmenting.
The detonations are very loud and
almost continuous, while from fresh
opening at the base Of the principal!
crater two streams of lava are issuing,
which within few hours covered a
wide tract Of ground. One stream has
covered the ground already arid from
previous eruptions, but the other is
going swiftly towards the village of
Ottajano. the direction taken by the
famous eruption Of 1872.
The whole district around the vol.
cano' Is shaken by frequent earth
shocks and perfect panic prevails, the
population crowding the churches to
pray, or gathering in open spaces for
safety. Experts, however, believe
that SO far there is no reason to fear
a serious disaster.
