Assembly Rooms.

The Rescue Hose Company gave a
very successful ball last night at the
Assembly Rooms. 1t followed the Gus
tom of years, that of giving ball on
or about the first of May, and last
nights function of the fire company
was their annual effort.
The hall was crowded with those
who enjoy dancing aud the crowd was
a most good natured one, not in tine
least minding being jostled. The floor
was in excellent condition and the
music was splendid. Schreyer's or
chestra played its best and most allur-
ing waltzes and two steps. There were
twenty numbers on Me program by
popular composers and in popular airs.
The floor committee was composed
of the following gentlemen Charles
f. Myers, chairman; John Knaddler,
Jr., Arthur Basil, Harry Beall. Edgar
Hopkins.
The gentlemen composing the COM
mittee of arrangements are Edgar Hop
kins. chairman; Charles K. Myers,

ed and its success reflects credit upon
the committees who had it in charge

four hundred persons were present at

FIRST RATE COMIC OPERA
La Mascotte Presented at The
Colonial Theatre.

The people of Annapolis are begin
ming to realize that first rate comic
opera may be heard at 30 and 30 cent
rates. A good audience greeted the
opening chorus OF La Mascotte' last
evening and its laughter and applause
could have done justice to a house
twice its size.
The work of the entire cast was at
its best. Miss Gonzalez was quite
herself again in Bettina. Mr.. Pache
showed more spirited acting than ever
before and sang quite as well as usual.
Mr.. Burnham and Mr.. Cox were
never so amusing and kept the entire
performance going in a whirl of mer-
riment. A new voice and good one
was heard in the fine tenor of Mr..
Phin Nores. who appeared IN the CON-
pany for the fist time. 1t is to be
nopt q that he will take part in all the
remaining performances here.
The chorus. especially that of the
women, is good. AS whole, the per-
formance of LA Mascotte" was high
ly creditable, and those who go to
see il repeated this evening will be
sure of a good evening diversion.

last night in the lecture room. The

vious years. He regretted there was a
scarcity of teachers TO meet this in
creased attendance. The report of the

year from all sources of upwards of
50, 600, and for the past six months of
81, 200. ard that the church was en-

the prisoner in the original trial were
used against the officer last night.

nesses were examined and many ques-
tions were asked after which the

THE ANNUAL PAJAMAP PARADE
HELD ON THE ST. JOHNS
COLLEGE CAMPUS.
The College Cadets Cavort In
GhoStly Garments And In
Ghoulish Glee at
Night.

AT least a thousand men, women
and children Tin which the colored
brethren and ssistern' were largely
included) witnessed the annual pa
lama parade of the battalion of St.
Johns College cadets on College cam
pus last night.
Following a custom of years on the
first of Nav when the shades of night
have fallen and the campus of old his
toric st. Johns is shrouded in dark
ness. the college cadets, attired IN
ghostly garments, cavort in ghoulish
glee TO the delectation of the onlook-
ers. When the night is moonlight
Luna's silvery beams lend more spec
tral aspect to the scene, but when the
moon fails to shine the grounds are il
Illuminated with criss-cross strings of
japanese lanterns.
This was the case last night, and a
pretty sight it presented. That part
of the campus between Mcdowell Hall
and Woodward Memorial Hall was
lighted with strings of japanese Ian
terms suspended from the trees, and
green and red lighs shot mp from the
ground at short intervals as though a
Mount Vesuvius or a Mount Pelee
were about to erupt and belch forth
it's molten lava. Shortly after
O'Clock the battalion of college cadets
attired in pajamas, night shirts,
sheets, pillow cases and anything white
they could lay their hands ON or put
their feet in, appeared in ghostly
array.
Some carried bed Stats, some tor
ches, others sticks and canes. Some
wore Ounce caps, others bakers caps
and some were minus caps. The col
lege band preceded the gruesome
spectres and played the tune the COW
died by, in b fiat or high O, it was
hard to tell which. Many transpar
ences we're carried in line. They
were almost illegible. but some read
"For Sale--a Sophomore, Wanted
"a Baseball Nine, and like sugges-
tive inscriptions.
The ghostly array was drilled per
company, and Company O, Captain
Green's Company, won the flag-a
huge white flag of truce. The flag
was presented by Miss Merritt G..
Rasin. He'was attired in white and
made handsome girl. He was es-
corted on the arm of Major Thomp-
son, - impersonated by Cadet Cecil,
of st. Johns. After the flag presen-
tation the orders were read. These
were humorous. but were frequently
punctuated by epithets not found in
the Sunday school catechism. The
battalion sang song, the chorus of
which contained frequent repetition
of word that rhymes with "bell'
and sounded like the name of place
where there is supposed to be no win
ter season, aud that never freezes over.
The program concluded with a
march by twos around the campus to
the tune of the dying swan in A fiat
or a mill pond, and the battalion re-
treated in the rear of Humphrey Hall,
where the last of its ghostly raiment
was hidden from view. The specta-
tors said goodnight to each other and
will wait until the next first of May
to witness similar gruesome spec
tacle.

VERDICT IN SECOND DEGREE
The Fate of Edward Galloway
Decided BY Twelve
Jurors.

All of the evidence in the case of
Edward. alias Egypt, Galloway, -
charged with the murder of Arthur
Dorsey, in Bladensburg, Pinoe George
county, has been offered The case
will go TO the jury aud in the opinion
of practically all who expressed them
selves, the verdict will certainly be
one of guilty in the first degree.
Galloway is feigning insanity ami
performs all sorts of peculiar stunts.
but as this has not been offered in evil
denoe it will not be considered by the
jury. He pretended this morning
that his clothing was ON fire and
wanted the fire department summoned
TO extinguish the flames The evidence
against Galloway is of a most con-
vincing nature. The testimony is to
the effect that he deliberately went
TO his home, secured shot gun and
returned to the saloon. where he had
lett Dorsey and blew away the top of
his head The men had been in the
saloon for some time and Dorsey
pocketed 81 which was the property
of Galloway
The latter stated that he knew how
TO get the money back, that he would
secure his gun and shoot Dorsey. Gal
loway claimed, when placed on the
stand this morning that when he re-
turned to the saloon intent on getting
his money, Dorsey had revolver in
his hand and that had he not shot
Dorsey the latter would have killed
him. Attorneys Wells, Hoover and
Moss made strong fight for their
client, but were unable 20 shake the
strong testimony which was produced
adverse TO him.
States Attorney Nicholas Ii. Green
was assisted by Mr.. NJ Hampton Ma
gruder, States Attorney of Prince
George county. The last witness left
the stand at noon and court adjourned
till 30 o'clock Arguments were
then made by the state and defense
and the case was given to the jury.
An early verdict was rendered and a
large number of spectators ramined in
the court room awaiting the outcome.
The jury in the case was out but
the briefest space of time when it re-
turned with verdict of murder in
the second degree.

CAUGHT THE CULPRIT.
The Man Who Killed Vansant's
Two Horses Has Been
Arrested.

Lodged in the county Jail, safe be-
hind locks and bars and shut out from
the companionship of man is the self
confessed beast who committed the
act which caused the death of two
valuable horses at Nansant's stables
last week. Charged with one of the
most serious oifenses on the calendar
of crime he will be given a prelimi-
nary hearing this evening.
Every effort will be made TO have
the case presented to the grand jury
at once in order that il may be dis
posed of during this term of court
1t is said that the evidence is so
strong against the man arrested that
it will be an easy matter 20 secure a
conviction. When it was seen that
some difficulty would be experienced
in getting evidence against the person
who committed the crime, Mr.. Van
SAINT enlisted the services of the detec-
tive agency of Smith. West d Lyons,
of Baltimore. The company sent down
one of their operators, Mr. Spandauer
Mr.. Spandauer at once went TO work
on the case and IN closely questioning
Benjamin Warren, who has been em-
ployed about the stables ever since he
was little boy, the latter made some
rather conflicting statements. He
was put through a course Of sprouts
and finally admitted that he had com
mitted the Fact. Mr.. Vansant at first
refused to credit the story, but War
rem offered irrefutable evidence of his
guilt He could give no reason for the
deed, as he was on the kbest OF terms
with his employer. He was accom-
panied to the Office of Squire Davis,
where a warrant was sworn out for
his arrest He demanded a hearing
and will be placed on trial before the
magistrate this evening. No bail was

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel H..
Vansant. met with painful accident
yesterday afternoon. The little girl
was playing with a bicyle in the sum
mer kitchen of her grandmother resi-
dence on West street, when she caught
the little finger of her left hand in the
cog OF the wheel and mashed it near
ly 70 a pulp. The child was taken by
her father to the Office Of DIR. Charles
b. Henkel, who dressed the wound,
which is an ugly one, but the Doctor
hopes to save the finger.
