THE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN
Interesting Contest On Between
Reds And Blues of The
Y. m. c. A.

Tomorrow morning q mem bership
campaign will be launched 10 increase
the membership of the Y. NJ. @. A.
The present membership will be di-
vided into two equal forces, one side
being called the 'Reds, the other
the "Blues. The object will be to
see which side can secure the more
members before the date which will
be determined upon later
The contest will not be longer than
one month. The captain who expects
to lead the Reds" to victory is Mr..
James Mcmillan. The leader of the
opposing forces, who is also confident
of success, is MAJOR Hugh r. Riley
The contest will undoubtedly be in
teresting aud every man in Annapolis
who is at all interested in the work of
the Young Mems Christian Associa
tion and in its future prospects, if
he is not already a member, should
become one.
The privilege offered by the Associa-
tion appeal strongly TO those who are
now members who know what these
privileges mean to them in the way Of
clean amusements, a clean atmos-
phere, cordial fellowship and oonse-
quently cleaner and purer lives. more
active brains aud more healthy
bodies. The Y. NJ. @. A. helps every
man who will take advantage of what
it offers. If a man can not take ad-
vantage of its privileges he can never
theless, knowing that by his example
and his money he will increase the
facilities of the Y. NJ. O. A. TO do a
larger work for the young men, who
need and who are desirous of what
the Association aims TO do for them.
The Y. M. O. a. needs a much
larger membership than at present to
insure the success of the canvass to be
made outside of Annapolis for the
new building. The citizens of Annap-
oils owe it to themselves, to their
3ity and to their young men to support
this work. A meeting of the captains
and lieutenants of the Reds aud
Blues will be held tonight at 7. 30
O'Clock at the Y. Nj. @. A. building
The Physical Work committee of the
Y. III. o. A. will meet tonight at
Z. 45 O'Clock.
Tonight at 8 O'Clock Mr.. Walter
Moore aud Major Hugh Riley will

Another RCbbery In Town.

A second robbery within the week
occurred one night recently at the
home of Mr.. J. A. Welch. 1877 Prince
George street while the family were
at supper. The burglar entered the
house. from a vacant dwelling next
door, which is undergoing practical
rebuilding. The two buildings are
only separated by narrow alleyway
and the entrance was made through
the second story window of the Welch
residence a similar window just op-
posite. The thief, before entering the
house, took off his shoes and left them
on the floor of the room in the va
cant house.
1t is thought that he was frightened
off by the approach of Mrs. Welch,
who went upstairs Immediately after
supper, and that he did not st0p to
pick up his discarded footwear in his
flight. The bedrooms we're ransacked
aud a small sum of money and jewel
ry taken. 1t is not thought that the
iobber is the same one who entered the
home of Mr.. Stratton last week, but
the police are watching out for a con-
nection of the two cases.

TO MEET THE M. A. G. TEAM.
St, Johns Eleven Getting Ready
For The Contest Satur-
day Morning.

A long lineup was held Yesterday
afternoon between the varsity and
scrubs, preparing for the paue with
the Maryland Agricultural College ON
Saturday. Maryland Agricultural
College seems to have strong team
this year. especially by the show ing
which they made against tho Navy
several weeks ago.
Never in the history OF t4e t&o in
stitutions has NJ. a. q. henten st
Johns in fothall. and usuailv the
locals have run up q large score on
them, so, 20 hold MP her previous res
ords, st. JOHNS has got 60 play very
hard on Saturday. Unfortunately her
whole back field is in n crippled con-
idtiou, and has been for nearly kthe
whole season. Daval will be ruled
out by the rules of the league. and
Stevens has not been able to be in a
lineup for about two weeks, owing
20 an injured knee, which he received
in the Y. Nj. |. game. Battle. also,
is not in very good condition. yet IL
is hoped that these men will be in
good shape by Saturday
Their injuries are being very well
baked by machine which the assooia-
tion Just received the other day.
Melvin viii very likely begin the
game in Duval's place and as he has
made such good showing this year.
the whole team has perfect confidence
in him. AsiM. A. q. and Johus Hop
kins are the only two state games
which st. Johns plays this year, she
cannot possibly claim the intercol-
legiate championship of the state un-
less she defeats them both. Even then
the title will be disputed. as Western
Maryland has played good game and
has no game with st. johns this
season.
A lsrge number of students will
very likely accompany the team to
College Park and several new songs
and yells have been composed for this
game. The stndent body, as we'll as
the team. is looking forward to the
game with perfect confidence and have
no doubt as to the results.
An informal hop will be held in the
gym. on Friday night. None of tho
football men viii be allowed TO attend.
but as this is the last chance for O hop
before Thanksgiving il has been de-
oided to hold it.

Nine Shows To Come.

Annapolis and portions of Anne
Arundel county were visited at an
early hour this morning by the first
snow of the season. The fall was
really no more than a few fiurries of
the white flakes and came to various
sections of the county between four
and 6se o'clscl. According TO the
theory of the old negroes and other
wise weather prophets the date of the
first snow fall and its number in the
month foretells the number of snow
falls for the winter. This would mean
that we are to have nine snow storm
this winter.
