DAMAGES BY THE WIND STORM
Destruction of Trees-Accidents On
Land And Water.

The severest wind storm that has
made its appearance about Annapolis
| and Anne Arundel county this season
| swooped down about 4 80 O'Clock yes
| terday afternoon and the wind in all
its fury continued for period of
about ten minutes. Although no real
serious damages have been reported as
the result of the blow. many fruit
trees lost their branches and consider
able of the fruit which they bore, and
in some cases in the county. the trees
were blown down entirely. Other
trees also suffered more or less dam.
age. Parts of fences were also blown
down.
No damages resulted to the shipping
in the haIbor, with the exception of
one boat, small batteau, containing
three persons, which Capsized of
Horn Point. The larger vessels lying
at anchor in the harbor. although
strongly anchored, dragged them. \
fairly strong wind had been blowing
throughout the day and consequently
there were but a few small craft any
distance out in the harbor What there
were, were able TO reach home safely
before the full force of the blow was
felt.
without warming and passed over in
great hurry. At O'Clock there was
some sign of the storm forming over
in the west, but il was not expected
that it would descend upon the city
until later in the afternoon. Its ap-
proach was fast, however, and the
time that the wind continued il as
sumed the proportions of a small cy
clone. There was very little rain in
the storm and an almost total absence
of lightning and thunder. Immediate
ly after the wind had ceased nearly a
dead calm prevailed, but gentle rain
fell for the rest of the afternoon. The
maximum velocity of the wind is said
90 have been about 40 miles an hour.
The storm did considerable damage in
the suburbs of Baltimore.
The batteau which Capsized off Horn
Point belonged to Captain William
III. Sanders. of the state police sChoon-
or May Brown, of the local beat IL
contained Mr.. Halbig and two other
men from Annapolis. The occupants
of the craft had noticed the storm
approach, but as il came along so
quickly, they were unable to bring
their boat to shore in time for shelter.
When the boat overturned all three of
the men were able to cling TO the
bottom of the craft. The capsize was
noted from the ship Santee at the Ma
val Academy and in the meantime a
launch was sent out, rescued the men
and towed the boat TO shore.
At the Naval Academy tho only
damage done by the wind was to blow
down part of the fence which incloses
the building operations about Ban
croft Hall and to break "A number of
the limbs from the large shade trees
along the walks The trees along the
walk leading to Mcdowell Hall, st.
Johns College, are also minus mum
ber of large branches today. The same
damages resulted TO the trees in East
port as in the city.

Frequent showers prevented work,
and excessive rains Wrought extensive
damage in numerous localities. The
Temperature of the week was about
normal.
Throughout the Section wheat in
the shock has begun to sprout, but a
large portion of the crop is safely
housed, and unless unfayorably wet
weather should continue, serious in
jury is not indicated. Little progress
was made in harvesting or threshing.
and in Northern Central counties some
wheat remains uncut. Cutting has
not vet become general in Western
Maryland. where good crop is indi-
Gated. What little wheat has been
threshed in Northern Central counties
has netted good results. the quantity
being fully up to expectations and
the quality fine
In Southern and some Eastern coun-
ties, where this work has attained a
more advanced stage. the quantity
ranges from poorlto good.and averages
fair, and the quality is good. Corn
continues to grow rapidly; this cereal
is steadily recovering from the effects
of early unfavorable conditions and
early planted has begun to silk and
tassel in,nearly all counties. Oats are
ripening in all counties, while har-
vesting has begun in Howard county
and is nearly finished in Southern
Maryland, where much in the fields
was damaged by the heavy rains.
Though injury to cut grass was wide
spread, only a small percentage of this
crop was caught upon the ground,
and no great general loss was sustain
ed. Buckwheat is coming mp well
in Western Maryland. In New Castle
county, Del, the second crop of

FANNUALINSPECTION
Of The Battalion of st. Johns Col
lege During Camp At
Colchester.
THE CADETS ARE COMMENDED
For Their Military Training-Re-
concentrations For
The Army.

The authorities of st. Johns Col.
lege have received a copy of the
report of the military inspection of the
cadet battalion at Camp Warfield.
COLCHESTER Beach, Md, made by Cap
tain W. j. Barden, Corps of Engineers.
u. S. A.
The following is a synopsis of Cap
tain Barden's S report:
] ~ true military spirit as developed
and nurtured was found TO be very
sati 'factory. The degree of zeal, the
performance of military duty, very
| commendable.
Personal interview of the gradu-
ating class (cadet officers) impressed
me very favorably They were gen.
| tlemanly, neat and soldierly in appear
ance, and expressed themselveslas be-
ing very fond of the military features
of the institution.
1.-The manual drill and ceremonies
were well executed and in business
like manner
1.-THE inspection showed that the
state of military instruction land dis
cipline at this institution is, in gener-
al, excellent. There are several of
this years graduates who Will make
goodkline officers.
ough nature in a purely military
sense. The report as a whole is one
of the most complete and comprehen-
sive ever submitted to the War De-
partment of the Government in com
pliance with the regulations and re-
quirements of military college inspec-
tion by an Army officer delegated for
this purpose.
The report is very complimentary to
the cadets of St. Johns College as a
body 1t shows that General Order
No. 90 has been stritoly enforced ut
the college and has been carried out.
The course of instruction at target
practice was very thorough and pro-
iicient, both gallery and range prac
tice. The range practice was secured
through the great kindness of Rear
Admiral Brownson, former superin-
tendent of the Naval Academy, who
allowed the cadets of St. Johns to
use the Naval Academy rifle range.
The cadet corps is under everlasting
obligation for the kindness shown
them BY the officers of the u. S.. Ma
rine Corps at the Naval Academy Ma.
riue Barracks, and for the courtesy
extended at their hands.
ST. Johns College certainly has a
great advantage, being so nearly asso-
ciated with the Naval Academy and
with the Marine officers at the School
of Application at the Marine Bar
racks. This close association with
the branches of military service means
the cultivation of a degree of friend
ship in a professional sense, which adds
much to the military training of the
battalion of st John College cadets.

tired, is instructor of the college here.

AN EARLY DISCOVERY OF FIRE
Prevented a Disastrous Conflagra-
ton Last Night.

Had it not been for the timely dis.
oovery of a fire in the gentlemen &
furnishing store of ". H. Thomas &
Co. on Church street last night. half
of that business portion of the town
would have been visited by serious
eonfiagration.
About S. so O'Clock a candidate for
the Naval Academy named. b. S. Gay,
Pennsylvania, passing the store looked
in and noticed a blaze. He took in
the situation and realized the place
was on fire. He at once hurried to the
house of Mr.. Frank A. Munroe, next
door, whose large drygoods store also
adjoins the store of Thomas & Co. and
rang the bell furiously, at the same
time calling loudly to Mr.. Munroe,
who quickly responded.
Mr.. Munroeswent to the.store door,
shook it but found il locked. Mr.
Harry Taylor came up at that time
and the three men endeavored to break
the door in, but it refused TO yield
Mr.. MunrOe then smashed the glass
with his foot and the three men enter
ed and put out the fire. They found
the cause TO be small gas stove,
which is used for heating irons to
press mems clothes, had been left
Burning The flames had caught to
the oak table on which the stove sets
and had burned a hole through the
table and set fire to a suit of clothes,
hat and other articles of mems wear
ing apparel.
Mr.. Munroe, knowing the arrange
ment of the store, ran first to the
water cooler, intending TO empty the
contents on the flames. but as is usual.
ly the case in lsuch emergencies. the
cooler was dry, not drop of water was
to be found. The flames, however,
were extinguished before the fire de-
partment arrived, although they re-
sponded Immediately after the alarm
was sounded, and the firemen are TO
be congratulated ON their speedy re-
sponse. A large crowd collected abou t
the scene. 1t was lucky that the fire
did not occur later in the night or
during the early morning hours. for
situated as the store is in the midst of
a business section of the street, there
islno doubt but there would have been
a serious confiagration.
The damage is slight, consisting of
the burned table, counter and suit of
clothes, together with slight damage
by smoke. During the fire while the
firemen were attempting to unwrap
the hose from the reel, it struck ex-Al-
derman Williams on the side of the
head and threw him into the street
injuring him slightly. He was
picked up by Mr.. Joseph Green, one
of the firemen.
