Indoor Baseball

The Annapolis Athletic Association
held meeting last nightI in ntheir
gymnasium at the old Opera House,
corner Maryland avenue and Prince
George street, There was very
large attendance. No business of inn
p)rtance was transacted and no new
members were received. After the
meeting the members engaged in an
interesting and spirited game of in
door baseball with Mr.. w. Il. Slaugh-
ter captain ON one side and Mr.. j.
Stewart Bond captain on the other
side. 1t was great sport and it was
probably the first indoor baseball game
ever played in town.
At the recent meeting of the Board
of Governors the president of the
Athletic Association, Mr.. w. e.
Slaughter, was authorized to look
after the electric wiring of the gym
nasium and to arrange with the An
napolis Electric Light Company for
same. Mr.. Morgan o. Parlett was ap-
pointed to attend TO the heating ap-
paratus and the matter of placing
wire screens over the windows for
protection of same. The baseball
material, which was in last nights
practice, was purchased in Baltimore
by Mr.. Arthur Wheatley, local agent
for the Business Mems Association,
who was commissioned for the pur-
pose. The young men are enthusiastic
over the prospect of the pleasure to
be derived from the gymnasium this
winter.

"Babes in Toyland.

Experts say that no theatrical produc
ton ally way approaches Glen Melon.
ough aad Victor Herbert's beautiful ex.
travaganza BABES in Toyland" for the
wonderful completeness of its new and
passingly strange electrical effects. One
picture which cost nearly thousand
dollars to create and which evoked the
genuine admiration of every one who
saw the production during its long run
of $50 nights at the Majestic theatre last
year is the amazingly realistic appear
ance of the thousands of butterflies
which are seen swarming fIom the en-.
chanted shores of Toyland as the ship
wrecked little Alan and Jane approach
it after having been sent as heir uncle
thought to death in a scuttled ship.
Besides the regular stage electricians
which every first class theatre has Ham
lin and Mitchell send five electricians
with their road production of this must.
cal comedy which is the vogue of Italy,
Germany and Austria Hungary right
now as well as in America. BABES in
Toyland" will be seen at the Colonial
Theatre on Monday, October nth.

German Military Life.

Manager Lehmayer, of the Acad
envy, of Music, Baltimore, announces
that next week he will have as an at
traction, Sam. s. Shubert's produc.
ton of "Taps,'' Franz Adam Boyer
lein's drama of German military life
in which Herbert Kelley and Miss
Effie Shannon have just scored so mag.
nificent triumph at the Lyric Thea
tire, New York. Mr.. Kelley and Miss
Shannon and the strong supporting
company of the New York engagement
will be seen at the Academy, as owing
to earlier bookings of the Lyric the
engagement at that theatre ended on
Saturday evening October s.
The scene of the play is laid at Send
helm, a garrison town in Prussia.
The characters are all taken from q
regiment of Uhlans, the famous cav
alrymen of Germany. A peculiar
thing about the play is that there is
but one female character introduced,
which will be assumed by Miss Shan
non. This role is built on the lines
of daughter of the regiment. She
is the petted creature of the entire
regiment, from the lowest private to
the colonel commanding. Her love
affair with young sergeant, which
is crossed by the mixing in of young
subaltern, in whom she becomes in
terested.to her sorrow, forms the basis
of the play. Each character of the
play is of such strength that Mr.. Sam.
S. Shubert, under whose manage
mentsthe stars fare touring. has pro-
vided supporting cast of unusual
strength.

Half century ago, when the late
Rev. Father John O'Brien, of Lowell,
Mass, recommended to his parishioners
and friends the prescription which
had restored him to health and
strength, the people named it Father
Johns Medicine, and so it became
known and was advertised, with his
knowledge and approval. The pre-
scription of an eminent specialist, 1t
is pure and wholesome and free from
alcohol and poisonous narcotics or
nerve-deadening drugs in any form
not patent medicine. Its power TO
make strength and build up the body
explains why it has been so successful
for fifty years in curing colds and all
throat and lung troubles.
