MANY NEW BUILDINGS.
Changes 10 Dwellings Being
Made In Lower Part of
The Town.

> With the many building operations
which have been carried ON in An.
napolls during the winter and which
are still in progress the appearance of
the lower part OF the town has been
greatly changed and with the COMING
of spring will present an appearance
of metropolitanism which it has so
long lacked.

been lacking in the promotion. of the

ed and been succeeded by a desire to
push the business interests as much as
the buying capacity of the city and
vicinity would warrant.
The new store of Isaac Benesch Il
Sons, has greatly improved the appear.
ance of lower Main street and already
gives promise of that business activity
which that and the surrounding neigh.
borhood can soon expect
Across the street Mr.. Charles w.
Smith is making a great change in
the building at present occupied BY
him and the store room next door.
This, when completed, will make one
OF the most attractive places of bust
ness in the city.
Around ON Market Space Mr.. Rosen.
berg is etfecting q wonderful change
in the appearance of the building for.
merly occupied By Isaac Benesoh &
Sons. The entire front has been re-
moved and will be superseded bv large
windows particularly fitted for tile
display of goods. The interior. also.
is being remodeled and will present a
very pleasing appearance.
BY spring the building at the corner
of Market Space and Main street. will
be razed TO the ground and a large
and up to-date store building will be
erected. This will be occupied by

WILL LET IT DROP.
The Athletic Association Will
Not Further Contest
Injunction.

1t is reported on reliable authority
that the members of the Annapolis
Athletic Association will abandon
their efforts to contest the injunction
prayed for by DR.. Charles b Henkel
For several days testimony was taken
in the matter before Referee Jerry L.
Smith, the association being represent
ed by Mr. Ridgely p. Melvin and DR.
Henkel by Mr.. Robert Moss.
Now il is said that the remaining
witnesses will not be examined, but
that the association will pay the costs
entailed by the taking of testimony,
will release the bond ofS 1000 filed by
Dr. Charles b. Henkel and permit the
injunction to become permanent.
The injunction proceedings were
begun by DIR. Henkel, who alleged
that the association, which occupied
the rooms directly over his store,
were so noisy and Jared the building
to such an extent that he could not
enjoy peaceful possession of the prem
ises.
A temporary injunction was granted
and the defendents elected to take tes-
tImony in the case to be presented
to the Court. Dr. Henkel was forced
to file bond of 81 600 as a guarantee
Of the costs in the case.

HOUSE PLENTY OF ICE
Farmers Secure Large Crops
This Winter.

Practically all of the farmers
throughout the county who own ice
houses have already filled them to
the roof with ice. Tue cold and con
sinued freezing weather have made il
possible to secure one of the largest
ice crops of many seasons.
AS most of the freezing weather
was done at time when there was
little wind and but a small amount of
snow, the ice is of particularly good
grade. It is clear and transparent and
is of the kind which does not melt
rapidly. This will save the farmers,
particularly those who handle milk,
a considerable sum of money which
they have been paying for the pur-
chase of artificial ice.
Many new ice houses we're built in
the county since the winter set in and
these also have been filed with ice.
Some of those which were late in be-
ing finished are still empty, but some
freezes in February are expected.

Mr.. Mudd's Projects

Representative Mudd, of Maryland,
visited the War Department yesterday
to make an effort to secure the issu-
ance of more improved rifles to the
cadets of ST. Johns College in time 70
be used by the cadets in the inaugural
parade.
Mr.. Mudd also called at the Navy
Department to urge the establishment
of short-arm target practice range on
the st. Mary's side of the Patuxent
river, opposite Drum Point. This is
one of the sites the Navy Department
has been considering for this range,
the other site being ON the York river,
in Virginia. Mr.. Mudd pointed out
to the naval authorities that Drum
Point has one of the finest harbors
along the Chesapeake and that it
would be good place some time in
the future for the establishment of a
naval station. No decision was reach
ed regarding either of these two pro-
jects.

Had a Rough Voyage

The three -masted schooner "Wil-
lam Bisbee, of Rockland, Me. ;,
Capt. Burnett, arrived in this port
with four hundred and ninety seven
tons of granite for the midshipmen' S
quarters bancroft HaIl), Naval Acad-
emy. This is about the last cargo of
granite to finish this building that
will come by water.
The schooner had a rough voyage
down the coast off Cape COdd, and
shifted a portion of her cargo, which
made it very dangerous. The vessel
was ably commanded, however, by
Capt. John Burnett. with crew in
clading the mate, of five men. The
storm lasted forty eight hours, during
which time she was in great danger.
The cargo was somewhat damaged,
some Of the large blocks, weighing
several tons. were broken and render
ed useless, but the ship came out of
the storm all right.
The "Bisbee' will leave here for
Norfolk, Va, on Monday TO take on
cargo there. Captain Burnett is we'll
known in Annapolis, and is very pop
ular with many of~our citizens.

THE HOLY NAME SOCIETY
Mr.. John B. Flood Declined a
Reelection.

An interesting meeting and election
of officers of the Holy Name Society
of St. Mary's Church was held last
evening in st. Mary's Hall. The So
ciety is but one year old in this city
and it was desired to re-elect Mr..
John b. Flood, the first president.
Mr.. Flood, however, declined the
election on the ground that he did not
desire to retain the Office when there
was so much other good material for
officers in the society. His decision
was received with many expressions
of regret. as Mr.. Flood has been most
active in working for the good of the
society.
The election resulted in the selec-
zion of the following officers: Major
Thompson, president; Dennis j.
Griffin. vice. president; Albert Quinn,
treasurer, aud ID. j. Murphy, secre-
tary. The council composed of the off.
GERS will shortly make selection of
the remaining officers of the society.

MANY ARE BEING CALLED.
ENLISTED MEN DETACHED
FROM ACADEMY.
Complement For The Colorado
And West Virginia Is
Partly Made Up
Here.

Orders were received at the Naval
Academy yesterday which caused
great CONSERVATION and surprise
among the enlisted men of the service.
The order calls for the making up of
a crew for the Colorado and West Vir-
ginia which are to be placed in COM
mission after the trials of the new
ships have been completed.
While the crew will be drafted from
the various navy yards of the country
and men will be taken from other
ships of the service, large number
will be taken from here Among this
number are men who are natives of
Annapolis and whose long years of
shore duty, many of whom have never
been at sea, make the idea of leaving
rather undesirable.
1t is known that at least six of the
men chosen TO become part of the COM
plement are natives of Annapolis and
many of them will leave behind them
families and we'll established house
holds. 70 them will the orders be re-
ceived with great regret.
As the full complement for the new
ships has not been made mp the chan
ces are that many more men will have
TO leave here and the men who have
already received orders to leave are
being sympathized with those who
expect any day to receive orders TO
leave. Those who will leave today TO
become part of the crew of the Colo
RADIO are wallenberg, Reitz, and
Mullen, machinists; Virgins, Credit
and Lee, oilers; Genenger, fireman.
Those chosen for the West Virginia
are Heintz and McMorton, water ten
ders Weary and Norwood, boats
wain's mates of the first class and
Olaf Olson. coxswain The Annapoli-
tans in the number are Scwhallenberg,
Reitz, Mullen. Virgins, Weary and
Norwood. The others are not local
men, but have made their homes here
for some time, having become we'll
known in certain circles.
The news of their leaving was re-
ceived with as great Surprise ON the
outside as it was among the enlisted
men in the Academy. 1t is said that
this is but the beginning of many
changes which are TO follow Those
who are closely identified with the
workings of the Navy Department,
insomach as it has TO do with the en-
listed men, state that there are to be
number of other changes caused by
the great lack OF sailors in the Navy
at this time.
Many new ships are being placed in
commission, others are being construc-
ted and in a short time will neel en-
tire crews. 1t is reasonable to pre-
sumo that experienced men will be
placed aboard as new men can better
be drilled in shore duty and in that
manner eventually placed on sea duty.
This will pull heavily on the navy
yards and the chances are that the
local yard will be hit pretty hard
when the new calls are made.
