Opposition To Electric Railway

Baltimore, like Annapolis, seems TO
be inclined to throw opposition in the
way of the electric railway company
for opposition on the part of the Uni
ted Railways and Electric Company to
the application for franchise for the
cars Of the Washington, Baltimore
and Annapolis Electric Company TO
reach the shopping district Of Balti-
more may be Withdrawn as result of
conferences recently held by parties
interested. The opposition of the Uni
ted was based on the move Of the ew
railway to get franchise to lay it's
own tracks on the theory that it was q
step that might be expanded into q
competing railway system.
At one time it was proposed to have
the cars of the new company use the
route of the United by laying rails
inside and outside of the latter's track.
It,would be necessary TO lay additional
rails, because of the difference in the
guage of track of the two systems.
This plan was, however, not regarded
as feasible, as the cars of one road
would block the schedule Of the other.
The Washington trolley people then
decided to ask for franchise for their
own route This stirred up the oppo-
sition from the United. Efforts have
since been made to bring the two sys-
TENS into harmony.

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH OF JULY.
How The Day Was Spent By The
Residents of This City
And Vicinity.

What would be called "sane" cele-
bration of the Fourth of July was that
of Yesterday in Annapolis. Although
the small boy was in force with his
torpedoes, mis- fire crackers and other
instruments of noise, the day was, for
the most part, spent rather in quiet
recreation than otherwise.
Practically every private residence
in the city was draped in bunting and
flags as was all the shipping in the
harbor. At the Naval Academy the
ships in port were dressed, a, national
salute was fired and all the men pos
sible were given holiday. The mid
shipmen engaged in ball games aud
other pastimes and there was no aca-
demic work of any sort ALI of the
engine houses in the city were draped
in bunting and flags, the dome on the
State House carried handsome of flag
and the postoffice and courthouse gave
evidence of the day. Practically all
business was suspended and for the
first time in years all of the stores
were closed.
A bread famine struck the town and
those who had mot had the foresight
to lay in their provisions the day be-
fore went breadless. Not a loaf of
bread was to be had in any of the
stores and other supplies were equally
hard to secure. The streets were fair
ly deserted during the best part of the
day and evening there being fewer per
sons moving about tran on Sunday.
Picnic parties, large and small, left
the,city early in the morning and made
for the various points short distance
from the city. Severn river, Spa
creek, Hawkins point. Weems' bluff
and various other placessreceived their
quota of pionicers.
Practically every pleasure craft in
the harbor was called into service and
carried away large crowd of excur-
sionists. The picnic at Bouchers', at
Galesville and other points took a
large number of person from Annapo-
lis and it was not till this morning
that Annapolis received back all of its
residents. AS far as is known there
were no serious accidents to mar the
day OF course little Willie, Johnny
ana the rest of the boys received burn
ed fingers and powder marks because
of a too close and intimate acquaint-
ance with the business end of fire
works

AND He WAS AN ALSO RAN.
Marriage of Miss Annie Green Was
a Great Surprise To
Her Friends.

"Out of sight, out OF mind is an
old saying which will long be remem-
bered by certain young man attached
to one of Uncle Sans warships. The
SAYING has caught him in the solar
plexus, struck him below the belt and
converted his smiling countenance into
one of gloom. At least it will when
he hears the news.
The denouement of the situation in
which this young man figures is con-
tanned in news which has just reached
here from Baltimore and has, more
over considerably to do with young
lady of this city. For some time Miss
Annie w. Green. daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Green. has been said to be
engaged to a young man named Busch
from out of town, who is connected
with one of the ships now on the sum-
mer cruise.
A wedding was considered as part
of the program on the part of the
young lady's friends, sand they We're
right. Busch. however, was only an
''also ram as he was not in al the
finish, not even getting place. Four
months ago Howard V. Pyle, aged "a
years, Of Baltimore, dealt himself a
hand in the game. He played good
game and seemed to get all the good
cards, although Busch anted every
time a call was expected. When Busch
was forced to leave on tho cruise lie
carried with him the thought that he
would return as soon as possible and
everything would be arranged accord
ingly.
Pyle, however. was 'pyling' on his
calls and playing strong hand with
such good effect .thatshe won out, TAX
ing the young :lady's hand as well.
Monday Miss Green. accompanied by
sisterHof Pyle, started for Baltimore.
AS they were getting into the carriage
which carried them to the station q
telegram was handed Miss Green. 1t
was from Busch and he stated that
he was coming on almost Immediately.
It is not known that Miss Green pull
ed the petals from the flower she wore
at her blet and murmured: "One l
love, two / love-" but she did tuck
the telegram away and ordered the
driver to proceed. That's all there Is
to the story with the exception that
Miss Green was married TO Pyle on
Monday while Busch is speeding this
way as fast as the means of locomotion
at hand will permit.

Opposed To Married Wo-
men Teaching.

Unaffected by the strenuousness Of
the Fourth and the general lassitude
which generally follows that day the
board of school commissioners held a
double session today at which con-
siderable amount of business was trans
acted. A large number of bills were
passed aud considerable time was
spent in hearing a request on the part
of the school trustees of the Annapolis
school.
The trustees requested that the sal
AIRY of the principal be increased to
81, 200 and that of three teachers to
5000 each. The board took the matter
under consideration and decided that

College offers male and female
scholarship while the Agricultural Col
lege has one male scholarship.
In connection with the same matter
the board awarded Miss Helen G.. Hun
ter the scholarship 10 the Maryland In
stitute. This is an app0intive scholar
ship and does not come under the same
general rules which apply to the other
two places of learning.

consideration and it is probable that a
number of pardons Will be granted.
